What am I looking at exactly?

0:00:210:00:23

A major redevelopment project.

0:00:230:00:25

Planning, construction, the works.

0:00:250:00:28

That's where the real money is. And I'm talking millions.

0:00:280:00:32

Hi-spec student flats with guaranteed tenants, guaranteed rent.

0:00:320:00:37

It's a win-win.

0:00:370:00:39

Here, what's going on here?

0:00:390:00:40

You want to speak to the man in charge? That's me, Alan Lindsay.

0:00:400:00:44

I need dirt on someone.

0:00:440:00:45

Who are you after?

0:00:450:00:48

Eileen Donachie.

0:00:480:00:49

I've been thinking about what you said about fostering.

0:00:490:00:54

I think I'm ready.

0:00:540:00:55

I'm moving back down south, Gabriel.

0:00:550:00:58

Angus. We're here, come on.

0:01:450:01:48

Come on!

0:01:530:01:55

If you're feeling rough, you've nobody but yourself to blame.

0:01:550:01:57

What possessed you to go out till all hours last night?

0:01:570:02:00

It was a farewell drink. It would be rude not to go.

0:02:000:02:02

Look, I know, I'm a bad boy.

0:02:020:02:04

I should have been at home, putting labels on furniture

0:02:040:02:06

and packing up boxes.

0:02:060:02:08

But...they're my mates.

0:02:080:02:10

See? Raring to go.

0:02:130:02:15

Kirsty, come on and see the house.

0:02:170:02:20

I'm so sorry. I wasn't expecting you till later.

0:02:450:02:49

I just came to get the last of my stuff.

0:02:490:02:51

I picked up these keys a few days ago.

0:02:510:02:53

You do know we own this house now?

0:02:530:02:55

I just came to give you the spare keys and do a bit of a clean up.

0:02:550:02:59

I come in peace.

0:03:040:03:07

What do yous think?

0:03:070:03:09

I know it's a bit smaller...

0:03:090:03:11

It'll be all right, you know.

0:03:110:03:15

They've left a right mess. Could do with a clear up and a lick of paint.

0:03:150:03:18

Look, can I help you?

0:03:180:03:20

No, actually, I'll be all right.

0:03:200:03:23

I could come and get some of this stuff later?

0:03:230:03:26

Or I could just manage it now.

0:03:260:03:29

What? She shouldn't have been here anyway.

0:03:470:03:50

It was her family home.

0:03:500:03:52

Aye, well, it's ours now.

0:03:520:03:54

All right, Zinnie?

0:04:080:04:09

-That's your new neighbours just arrived.

-Oh.

0:04:090:04:12

That must be hard on you, dear.

0:04:130:04:16

It's fine.

0:04:160:04:18

-Angus, I need you on site this morning.

-What?

0:04:220:04:26

Jim McConnell, the manager for the piling contractor's coming.

0:04:260:04:29

I need to stay here and wait for our stuff arriving.

0:04:290:04:32

Hey, you phone me the minute he arrives.

0:04:320:04:34

-I was going to see a car and give it a test drive.

-Eh, hello? We're in the middle of moving house here.

0:04:340:04:39

I need you on site. You work for me now, remember?

0:04:390:04:43

Da, come on.

0:04:430:04:45

You don't work, you don't get paid. Simple as that. And running a car costs.

0:04:450:04:49

Sir! You are right, sir!

0:04:490:04:52

Right. You should probably head off to school.

0:04:540:04:57

She's just finished her exams. The last thing she wants to do

0:04:570:05:00

is go to a new school. She doesn't know anybody there.

0:05:000:05:02

All the more reason for her to go. You need to get to know the place.

0:05:020:05:05

Can she not just wait till we're settled?

0:05:050:05:07

I'm thinking of what's best for Kirsty. KNOCKING

0:05:070:05:10

Hello? Hello?

0:05:100:05:14

Sorry, I hope you didn't mind us just coming in.

0:05:140:05:17

Your door was wide open.

0:05:170:05:19

We're your next door neighbours.

0:05:200:05:23

Right. Well, nice to meet you.

0:05:230:05:26

-Yes. And you're Mr Lindsay, isn't it?

-Have we met?

0:05:260:05:30

Well, not exactly. We were at the community meeting

0:05:300:05:33

about your...development?

0:05:330:05:36

Call me Alan.

0:05:370:05:39

-I'm Liz.

-Good to meet you.

0:05:390:05:41

And this is Malcolm. And we're the Hamiltons.

0:05:410:05:45

-This is my son, Angus.

-Hello.

-He works with me.

0:05:450:05:48

That's my daughter, Kirsty.

0:05:480:05:51

Hi.

0:05:510:05:52

So, erm, where did you live before?

0:05:550:05:58

-East Kilbride.

-Oh.

0:06:020:06:06

I'm an incomer myself.

0:06:060:06:08

I used to live in the West End, but then I met Malcolm.

0:06:080:06:12

Aye, that's me. Born and bred a Clydesider. I worked in the ships.

0:06:120:06:18

In those days, people took a real pride in their work.

0:06:180:06:21

Ooft. I can tell you and my dad are going to get on great.

0:06:210:06:24

KNOCKING That'll be our stuff.

0:06:240:06:27

I'll get it.

0:06:270:06:28

It was lovely of you to pop in, but I think that's the removal men...

0:06:280:06:33

Moving can be so stressful, can't it?

0:06:330:06:36

Most of the bedroom stuff should probably come out first.

0:06:400:06:43

If you don't mind...

0:06:430:06:45

You'll stay for a wee cup of tea?

0:06:450:06:47

You need to get to site and I need to supervise this.

0:06:470:06:49

-Liz, you wouldn't mind being a darlin' and making it yourself, would you?

-That's not necessary.

0:06:490:06:54

Why not? We'd love to help, wouldn't we, Malcolm?

0:06:540:06:57

Oh, sure we would.

0:06:570:06:59

That's dead kind of you.

0:06:590:07:01

I can tell you're going to be my favourite neighbour.

0:07:010:07:04

Right, Da, I'm off.

0:07:040:07:07

Brilliant. I'm looking forward to it.

0:07:150:07:17

Yeah, it's just round from the subway, opposite Amber Cabs.

0:07:170:07:21

OK. Right, bye. See you then.

0:07:210:07:23

So?

0:07:230:07:26

That was Sandra. Just confirming she'll be here at 2:30pm.

0:07:260:07:28

Great. I'll try and get away early.

0:07:280:07:31

Do you think this place looks all right?

0:07:310:07:35

What's wrong with it?

0:07:350:07:38

Just thought maybe we should do something to make it a bit more,

0:07:380:07:41

you know, more homely.

0:07:410:07:43

It is homely. It's lovely.

0:07:430:07:45

You think?

0:07:450:07:47

She's been here before and never said anything.

0:07:470:07:49

This meeting is about us asking her things.

0:07:490:07:52

Not getting the third degree.

0:07:520:07:53

Maybe we should have decorated. Made a bit more of an effort.

0:07:530:07:57

I don't want her thinking we're not domesticated.

0:07:570:08:00

We're gay men. She's not going to think for a minute that we're not domesticated.

0:08:000:08:03

Besides, it's about us a family, how well we can cope with having a wean,

0:08:030:08:07

no' whether our skirting boards are wiped down or not.

0:08:070:08:10

Don't worry, I'm on it. I'll do them.

0:08:100:08:12

The place is spotless. I'll go over everything.

0:08:120:08:14

What if she decides, you know, she doesn't like us? Or...

0:08:140:08:17

Doesn't like us? Are you kidding? You're gorgeous and manly and I'm adorable.

0:08:170:08:22

-What's not to like?

-OK.

0:08:220:08:26

Now beat it. Get out of here.

0:08:260:08:28

She'll love us, I promise.

0:08:280:08:30

Oh, aye, I mind when this area when it was all shipyards and factories.

0:08:330:08:37

Folk lived cheek by jowl back then.

0:08:370:08:40

Now, if you show me where the mugs and the kettle are...

0:08:410:08:44

Listen, it's really nice of you to want to help, but as you can see, it's really busy in here.

0:08:440:08:48

Upstairs. Kirsty?

0:08:480:08:50

Go with them, make sure they put the boxes in the right rooms.

0:08:500:08:53

-But I don't know...

-That's why I put notes on the door.

0:08:530:08:55

I'm first on the left up the stairs, then it's Angus. You're next to the bathroom.

0:08:550:08:59

-Angus has already put his stuff in that one.

-Take it out then!

-I don't mind having that one.

0:08:590:09:03

Fine. Take whatever room you want.

0:09:030:09:05

Go on, then!

0:09:050:09:08

So...how do you find working with Alex McAllister?

0:09:100:09:16

Quite a...colourful family, that, you know.

0:09:160:09:19

It's fine, just leave it. I'll get it.

0:09:190:09:22

Ah! Mugs!

0:09:240:09:28

How about I make us that cup of tea?

0:09:280:09:30

Oh, look.

0:09:320:09:36

I'll be mum.

0:09:360:09:39

Just make it in the mugs.

0:09:410:09:44

All right, mate?

0:10:080:10:10

All right?

0:10:100:10:12

-This your place, aye?

-Yup.

0:10:120:10:15

It's pretty smart.

0:10:150:10:17

I was thinking of buying a motor.

0:10:200:10:21

I might bring it here to get it checked over.

0:10:210:10:24

Make sure I'm not being sold a pup.

0:10:240:10:26

Aye, nae bother.

0:10:260:10:28

-Cool. Well, see you later.

-See you.

0:10:300:10:32

So, if there's anything you need, we're just next door...

0:10:400:10:45

That's great. Thanks very much, I appreciate it.

0:10:450:10:48

HE SIGHS

0:10:480:10:52

Kirsty?

0:11:070:11:09

What's that doing here?

0:11:090:11:12

It's Mum's stuff.

0:11:120:11:14

I know what it is.

0:11:140:11:15

There's no room for it here.

0:11:170:11:20

I'm not going to throw it out. I was going to put it into storage.

0:11:220:11:27

No, she'll want it here.

0:11:270:11:30

For when she comes back.

0:11:300:11:33

I wouldn't pin too much hope on that.

0:11:330:11:35

Come on. New house...

0:11:400:11:44

new beginnings.

0:11:440:11:47

Come on, Kirsty.

0:11:470:11:49

PHONE RINGS

0:12:220:12:27

Hi.

0:12:270:12:29

What?

0:12:300:12:34

No, no, of course I'm still interested, aye.

0:12:340:12:37

Right, well, don't let them buy it till I've seen it.

0:12:380:12:41

Right, look, I'll...

0:12:450:12:47

I'll come the now. So don't let it go, OK?

0:12:470:12:50

Kirsty? Kirsty?

0:13:010:13:03

Have you seen my phone?

0:13:060:13:08

You were charging it in the car...

0:13:080:13:11

Listen, I'm going to go down to the site.

0:13:110:13:13

The spare keys are up there. Lock up when you leave, OK?

0:13:130:13:17

Don't touch anything.

0:13:190:13:21

We'll sort it all when I get back, all right?

0:13:210:13:23

I wasn't expecting to see you here this morning...

0:14:350:14:38

But you were expecting McConnell.

0:14:380:14:40

Aye. I had somebody here. They were to supposed to phone me as soon as he arrived.

0:14:400:14:44

Well, apparently he came, and when you weren't here,

0:14:440:14:46

and he couldn't get you on the phone, he went onto another job.

0:14:460:14:49

-Sorry. I left my phone in the car. But I did have someone here.

-Why weren't you?

0:14:490:14:53

-I'm moving in today.

-So not the best day to arrange to see him, then, eh?

0:14:530:14:57

Look, I know what it's like, going through a marriage break-up,

0:14:570:15:01

but it doesn't work for me if you can't give things your full focus.

0:15:010:15:04

I know. I'll sort it.

0:15:040:15:06

Ho!

0:15:110:15:13

What do you think, mate?

0:15:160:15:18

I didn't expect you to bring something in today. I've got jobs on.

0:15:180:15:22

Come on, mate. I'm on a clock. It's a bargain. I don't want to lose it.

0:15:220:15:25

Look, I'll make it worth your while.

0:15:270:15:30

I would do it myself, but I've not got the gear or the space.

0:15:300:15:34

PHONE RINGS

0:15:340:15:35

Eh...

0:15:380:15:41

-Da?

-Where are you?!

0:15:410:15:43

Well, you're supposed to be here waiting on McConnell.

0:15:430:15:46

I was!

0:15:460:15:48

Well, when the guy wasn't there at quarter to 11,

0:15:520:15:54

I thought it would be all right to go and check out that car.

0:15:540:15:58

-Listen, this isn't good enough.

-Look, Da, I need to go. I'm driving. Right? Right...

0:15:580:16:02

You don't want anybody on your team that's unreliable. I'd get rid, if I were you.

0:16:160:16:21

It was my son. He said the guy hadn't turned up at quarter to.

0:16:220:16:26

And he didn't wait? I'll need to tell Frank about this.

0:16:260:16:28

It was him that suggested the contractor in the first place.

0:16:280:16:31

There's no need for that. I'll get them to come back tomorrow.

0:16:310:16:34

If they can. They'll probably charge us for this muck-up today.

0:16:340:16:38

Frank's coming for our meeting at one. I'll see you then.

0:16:380:16:41

Look, rest assured, I'll have a word with that boy of mine.

0:16:440:16:48

Don't be late for the meeting.

0:16:480:16:50

Mr Lindsay was very quiet about his wife, wasn't he?

0:17:000:17:06

You don't think he's recently widowed, do you?

0:17:070:17:12

He would have said so, surely.

0:17:120:17:15

It was odd.

0:17:150:17:17

Oh.

0:17:190:17:22

Hi. Cheese and ham toastie and a cola, please.

0:17:220:17:25

Settling in all right?

0:17:290:17:31

Takes a while.

0:17:330:17:34

There you go.

0:17:360:17:38

-I'll bring your toastie over to you, pal.

-Thanks.

0:17:390:17:42

-Just moved into the Brodies'.

-Oh, right, OK.

0:17:440:17:47

It'll make a change.

0:17:470:17:49

So, are you planning on staying like that all day?

0:18:010:18:04

If I have to.

0:18:040:18:06

Look, you're all right. They're away.

0:18:110:18:14

Very funny.

0:18:140:18:16

So...is Alan Lindsay your dad then?

0:18:160:18:19

I'm meant to be working for him.

0:18:210:18:23

But I made a bit of a screw-up this morning, though.

0:18:230:18:26

I was meant to be on site to meet this piling contracts guy or something.

0:18:260:18:30

But you went to get that motor.

0:18:300:18:32

I thought he wasn't going to show up. I waited ages.

0:18:320:18:35

My dad will probably make out I've set the whole thing back months.

0:18:350:18:39

That's no' very reassuring for an investor to hear.

0:18:390:18:42

-Seriously, you're an investor?

-Aye.

0:18:420:18:44

-Mate, you don't look like...

-Like I'm minted? Aye, well, I'm not.

0:18:440:18:48

But what I have got, I've invested for the future,

0:18:480:18:50

so I hope yous'll do a good job.

0:18:500:18:52

It's no big deal.

0:18:520:18:54

I mean, like, you've got nothing to worry about.

0:18:540:18:56

Your money's in safe hands.

0:18:560:18:58

Aye, it better be.

0:18:580:19:00

Right, look, leave your motor here.

0:19:000:19:02

I'll have a look at it when I can.

0:19:020:19:03

But I need to get it back this afternoon.

0:19:030:19:06

HE SIGHS

0:19:060:19:08

All right, I'll do it next.

0:19:080:19:12

Right. What do we owe you, dear?

0:19:190:19:22

-£8.50, please, Liz.

-Just keep the change.

-Thank you.

0:19:220:19:26

Seems like a nice lassie, don't you think?

0:19:280:19:31

So, when's your mum going to be joining you?

0:19:330:19:36

She is coming, isn't she?

0:19:390:19:41

Oh, listen, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to intrude, dear...

0:19:430:19:47

-It's fine.

-Kir...

0:19:470:19:49

Kirsty?

0:19:510:19:53

I thought you were at school!

0:19:530:19:55

I'm just going...

0:19:550:19:57

Have you seen your brother?

0:19:570:20:00

What are the pair of yous like?

0:20:000:20:01

You cannae do a single thing you're supposed to!

0:20:010:20:04

See from now on, when I tell you to do something, you do it.

0:20:040:20:07

You both need to make more of an effort.

0:20:100:20:13

It's important that we make a good impression round here.

0:20:130:20:16

You know what your trouble is?

0:20:160:20:19

You're too used to getting everything your own way.

0:20:190:20:22

Well, see now?

0:20:220:20:23

It's just us. You cannae go running to your ma for back-up.

0:20:230:20:27

You get on that bus, you hear me?

0:20:270:20:30

I'm going to go and find that brother of yours.

0:20:300:20:33

-Hi.

-Hi.

-You must be Robbie?

0:20:430:20:47

I'm Sandra. Sorry I'm early.

0:20:470:20:49

-I thought you were coming at half past.

-Is there a problem?

0:20:490:20:52

Erm... Eh...

0:20:520:20:54

Can I come in?

0:20:540:20:56

Sorry, yeah, come in, come in.

0:20:560:20:58

Just go through - and please excuse the mess.

0:20:580:21:01

This place was pristine an hour ago.

0:21:090:21:12

It kind of says train wreck right about now, but...

0:21:120:21:16

Will's a great cook. So, if we got the chance to foster,

0:21:160:21:18

you don't have to worry about them getting a proper balanced diet.

0:21:180:21:22

-Do you want a tea or a coffee?

-Can we have a chat first?

0:21:220:21:25

Aye, no bother.

0:21:250:21:28

Look, me and Will just want to create a loving home for a wean to come into.

0:21:280:21:32

-Have you got something in the oven?

-Aye, scones.

0:21:320:21:34

Oh!

0:21:340:21:36

-Ow!

-Let me help you....

0:21:380:21:41

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm making a pure mess of this.

0:21:410:21:44

I just wanted to impress you.

0:21:440:21:46

Now you're probably thinking, there's no way he can be responsible

0:21:460:21:49

for weans, since I'm liable to burn the house down.

0:21:490:21:52

I hope I'm not too...

0:21:540:21:55

-I'm sorry, I made a bit of a mess.

-Are you all right?

0:21:550:21:58

-Nothing to worry about.

-PHONE RINGS

0:21:580:22:01

Oh, sorry.

0:22:010:22:03

I'm so sorry. I just wanted to impress her.

0:22:030:22:05

I just thought it would make the place seem a bit homely.

0:22:050:22:07

It's OK. Relax.

0:22:070:22:10

Put it in water.

0:22:100:22:12

# Wait till you're announced

0:22:250:22:29

# We've not yet lost all our graces... #

0:22:290:22:33

What are you bringing all this gin in for?

0:22:330:22:35

-There's no' enough voddie and twice the amount of rum. You trying to be funny?

-No.

0:22:350:22:39

Oh, haud your horses, pony express.

0:22:390:22:41

You're not getting away that easy. Come on through and take they crates back.

0:22:410:22:46

See... Three crates... Two crates. Not the other way round.

-Ho! She just knocked a bottle of gin!

-Hey!

-Hey!

0:23:030:23:07

# A hundred jewels between teeth

0:23:070:23:11

# Now bring my boys in

0:23:110:23:13

# Their skin in craters like the moon

0:23:130:23:15

# The moon we love like a brother while he glows through the room

0:23:150:23:20

# Dancin' around the lies we tell

0:23:200:23:23

# Dancin' around big eyes as well

0:23:230:23:25

# Even the comatose They don't dance and tell

# We live in cities you'll never see on screen

# Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

0:23:350:23:40

# Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams

0:23:400:23:45

# And you know We're on each other's team

0:23:450:23:50

# I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air

0:23:500:23:56

# So there

0:23:570:23:59

# So all the cups got broke Shards beneath our feet

0:23:590:24:04

# But it wasn't my fault

0:24:040:24:08

# And everyone's competing for a love they won't receive... #

0:24:080:24:13

DOOR OPENS

0:24:140:24:16

At last! Where the hell have you been?

0:24:170:24:21

They didn't turn up. I stayed on site for ages.

0:24:210:24:23

-You don't just leave. You should've phoned me.

-I tried. There was no answer.

0:24:230:24:26

So you just wander off? You cannae do that!

0:24:260:24:29

-I stayed for nearly an hour.

-So? It's your job.

0:24:290:24:31

Da, it's no' the end of the world. They can come back.

0:24:310:24:35

You don't get it, do you? McConnell phoned my boss.

0:24:350:24:39

He's a personal friend of Councillor Paton.

0:24:390:24:41

You've made me look like I cannae be trusted with the simplest job.

0:24:410:24:44

-I'm trying my best.

-Well, it's not good enough!

0:24:440:24:47

You leave site, you let me know.

0:24:470:24:49

I need you to start thinking before you act for a change.

0:24:490:24:52

Son, this is a great chance for you.

0:24:540:24:58

Aye, so you keep saying.

0:24:580:25:00

You need something.

0:25:000:25:02

Something to get out of bed in the morning.

0:25:020:25:05

This job - this responsibility I've given you - could be the making of you.

0:25:050:25:10

Well, say something.

0:25:100:25:12

I'm sorry. I'll try and do better.

0:25:140:25:16

Try and sound like you mean it.

0:25:170:25:20

What is a piles contractor anyway? It sounds like a disease.

0:25:240:25:28

You cannae take anything seriously, can you?

0:25:280:25:31

Aw, Da, lighten up, will you?

0:25:310:25:32

Well, maybe this'll get through to you.

0:25:350:25:38

You're sacked!

0:25:380:25:40

This meeting is to give you a chance to ask me

0:25:520:25:55

anything about the process of fostering.

0:25:550:25:57

It's not about me checking you out.

0:25:570:26:00

Robbie, I never got the chance to speak to you before.

0:26:000:26:03

I'm so sorry about that.

0:26:030:26:05

Well, I was wondering if you've got any reservations?

0:26:050:26:09

I need you both to be honest with me.

0:26:100:26:12

I'm terrified.

0:26:150:26:17

I want to do it, but I'm not like Will.

0:26:190:26:24

I don't have his experience with difficult weans.

0:26:240:26:27

I run a hair salon.

0:26:280:26:32

The weans that I come across just want blonde tips in their hair,

0:26:320:26:37

and to talk about Tumblr and Snapchat and what bands they like.

0:26:370:26:42

I have them for half an hour and then they're out the door.

0:26:420:26:46

So?

0:26:460:26:47

So...what if I get it wrong?

0:26:470:26:51

You're only saying what every parent, never mind foster carers, worry about.

0:26:510:26:56

But what if I don't know what to do?

0:26:560:26:59

What if there's a problem or difficulty and I can't cope?

0:26:590:27:05

You're not expected to know everything straight off,

0:27:050:27:07

and there's a whole support network available.

0:27:070:27:10

Look, if you feel out of your depth, you can always talk to me.

0:27:100:27:14

You're not on your own.

0:27:160:27:18

I just need to know if it's what you want.

0:27:180:27:20

It is.

0:27:260:27:27

Thought you might like these - the only ones I didn't burn.

0:27:300:27:33

Thanks. Thanks for this afternoon.

0:27:330:27:36

-Listen, I'm sorry about...

-There's no need to apologise.

0:27:360:27:39

I'll be in touch to tell you what happens next.

0:27:390:27:42

But there's still a few stages to go through

0:27:420:27:44

before we place someone with you. I've got to be honest,

0:27:440:27:48

as gay foster dads, you're going to face your fair share of prejudice.

0:27:480:27:52

But I'm sure you know that.

0:27:520:27:55

So is there anything that you feel like telling me?

0:27:550:27:58

Anything that will stop you moving forward?

0:27:580:28:01

-I don't think so.

-No.

0:28:030:28:06

Good. Well, let's set the wheels in motion.

0:28:060:28:09

-Great, I'll see you out.

-Bye.

-Bye.

0:28:090:28:12

# We live in cities you'll never see on screen

0:28:540:28:57

# And you know, and you know, and you know. #

0:28:570:29:01

These are the deadlines I propose.

0:29:090:29:12

This seems a bit tight.

0:29:220:29:24

I don't want to promise something I can't deliver.

0:29:260:29:29

You don't need to be modest. Alex here tells me you're more than capable of achieving this.

0:29:290:29:33

And don't worry about what happened this morning. I had a word with McConnell. It's fine.

0:29:330:29:37

Don't let Alex give you a hard time.

0:29:370:29:39

Well, thanks for talking to McConnell.

0:29:390:29:41

-I did try and phone him.

-It's sorted.

0:29:410:29:43

But you'll need to give him a date when you're available. His time is valuable.

0:29:430:29:46

Of course. And thanks.

0:29:460:29:49

We need to make sure all the legalities are in place before the work starts proper.

0:29:490:29:52

-We need a ground report.

-I know a company that can do the report. I'll sort that out.

0:29:520:29:56

It's done. I mean, I've booked someone to do it.

0:29:560:29:58

I thought you'd want me to go ahead. It is my responsibility.

0:30:010:30:05

Frank?

0:30:050:30:06

Well, the company I know are very reliable.

0:30:060:30:09

They've done a lot of work with the council in the past. They're the guys we want.

0:30:090:30:13

-I can set that it in motion if you like.

-It's my job to do that.

0:30:130:30:16

Of course it is. I can give you the contact details,

0:30:160:30:19

-so you can.

-I've already commissioned the company.

0:30:190:30:21

Cancel them.

0:30:210:30:23

I just think it's easier if we go with my guys.

0:30:240:30:27

Trust me.

0:30:270:30:28

Now, don't take this as a criticism of your judgment.

0:30:390:30:42

But are you really sure our Mr Lindsay's got enough experience for a project of this size?

0:30:420:30:46

The ground report.

0:31:080:31:09

I stand by the guys I commissioned.

0:31:110:31:13

-Don't you trust Frank's judgment?

-It's not that...

-Then what?

0:31:130:31:16

I thought you would've trusted MY judgment.

0:31:160:31:18

You are aware of how big an opportunity this is - for you as much as me?

0:31:200:31:25

I am. And I appreciate it.

0:31:250:31:27

We can't always get our own way.

0:31:270:31:29

There's always a bit of give and take on these kinds of projects.

0:31:290:31:32

So Frank wants to use his own guys on the ground report, it's no big deal.

0:31:320:31:36

It's my responsibility.

0:31:360:31:38

I don't think you're in any position to talk about

0:31:380:31:40

responsibility after what happened this morning.

0:31:400:31:42

I said I was sorry. He seemed OK about it.

0:31:420:31:45

Aye, well, don't kid yourself. He's not happy.

0:31:450:31:48

He knows what he wants, and he'll make sure he gets it.

0:31:480:31:51

So we use his guys on the report.

0:31:510:31:53

It's one less thing for you to worry about.

0:31:530:31:55

Look - it'll be fine.

0:31:570:32:00

I wouldn't have risked giving you this contract if I never had faith in you.

0:32:010:32:05

But Alan... we can't do it without him.

0:32:050:32:08

So we need to keep him sweet.

0:32:080:32:10

Yeah. That's them just moved in.

0:32:220:32:24

It feels so weird, Leyla.

0:32:240:32:27

Yeah, I know.

0:32:270:32:28

Well, thanks for checking in. I'll call soon.

0:32:280:32:31

You all right?

0:32:550:32:57

Do you want me to get someone - your dad?

0:33:000:33:03

No.

0:33:030:33:05

Well, if you're sure you're OK?

0:33:060:33:07

OK.

0:33:100:33:12

Where did you get the booze?

0:33:260:33:27

Oh, come on. I saw you drinking it.

0:33:300:33:32

I stole it.

0:33:370:33:38

Bad day, huh?

0:33:430:33:44

Oh, here. Thanks for getting Madonna the day. It's been pure mad.

0:33:560:34:00

She's with Kelly-Marie.

0:34:000:34:01

Great.

0:34:010:34:03

I had a bottle of gin nicked from under my nose! Cannae believe it.

0:34:030:34:06

I was too busy talking to that eejit from the wholesalers.

0:34:060:34:09

I mean, how hard can it be to get your order right?

0:34:090:34:12

If that guy had a brain, he'd be dangerous.

0:34:120:34:14

What?

0:34:160:34:19

What's happened, Jimmy?

0:34:190:34:20

Look, I..I don't want to worry you.

0:34:200:34:22

Aye, well, you're too late now.

0:34:220:34:25

I've got a court date.

0:34:250:34:27

To testify against Kennedy.

0:34:280:34:30

Oh...

0:34:320:34:33

How do you feel about that?

0:34:340:34:36

Well, I'm not exactly sticking my party hat on.

0:34:360:34:38

Listen, do you fancy a drink?

0:34:400:34:42

Aye, aye.

0:34:430:34:45

-Agnes, that's me taking my break, all right?

-All right.

0:34:450:34:49

Right. Come on...

0:34:490:34:50

-ZINNIE:

-'Look, I know how you feel.'

0:34:540:34:56

Honestly, when I first moved here, I thought it was a right dump.

0:34:570:35:00

Look, if you don't want to talk, I'm not going to make you.

0:35:040:35:07

He drove her away.

0:35:100:35:12

She got me, you know?

0:35:170:35:19

I could...

0:35:190:35:21

..talk to her,

0:35:220:35:24

say anything to her, she could say anything to me.

0:35:240:35:27

And now she's gone...

0:35:280:35:30

..and I hate him.

0:35:320:35:34

So...why did she go?

0:35:340:35:37

You don't know what he's like.

0:35:370:35:38

She had to leave.

0:35:390:35:41

-Was he violent?

-No.

0:35:420:35:44

No.

0:35:460:35:47

He cheated on her.

0:35:500:35:52

Your mum told you that?

0:35:560:35:58

He slept with her best friend.

0:36:010:36:03

And there were others.

0:36:030:36:04

She's going to...get a place.

0:36:070:36:12

Get a job somewhere, and then we'll go to her.

0:36:140:36:17

OK. Come on. Almost there...

0:36:410:36:43

Hey. Bit early for a girls' night out, isn't it?

0:36:490:36:51

Don't ask.

0:36:510:36:53

Who is she?

0:36:560:36:57

She's just moved in.

0:36:570:36:59

Kirsty Lindsay.

0:36:590:37:00

Thanks for being so understanding, John. I do appreciate it.

0:37:200:37:23

I'm going to have to go. Speak to you later.

0:37:230:37:25

You Alan Lindsay, aye?

0:37:250:37:27

-Uh-huh.

-Well, I'm here to save you grief from my ma.

0:37:270:37:30

Cos if she finds out, she's going to be on the warpath,

0:37:300:37:32

and believe you me, you don't want that.

0:37:320:37:34

-What's happened?

-Your daughter's Kirsty, right?

0:37:340:37:36

-Mm-hm.

-Well, she nicked a bottle of gin from the shop my ma works at.

0:37:360:37:40

-Kirsty would never do that.

-I've just seen her. And she can hardly walk.

0:37:400:37:43

-You feeling a bit better?

-Mm-mm.

0:37:500:37:53

-Do you want a basin or something?

-DOOR OPENS

0:37:530:37:55

I don't believe this.

0:38:020:38:03

-What's wrong with you?!

-Don't be angry...

0:38:030:38:05

-What are you doing here anyway?

-I brought her home.

0:38:050:38:08

-You let my daughter drink?

-I didn't "let" your daughter do anything!

0:38:080:38:10

Look at the state of her!

0:38:100:38:12

-I know. I found her like this and I brought her home.

-Look, I'm here now. You can go.

0:38:120:38:16

-No. She needs help.

-And I'm here.

0:38:170:38:20

-You're shouting at her. How's that helping?

-She's my daughter.

0:38:200:38:23

And you are a stranger, who for all I know got her drunk.

0:38:230:38:26

You have got a right nerve, shouting at me!

0:38:260:38:28

Do you know why she was getting drunk?

0:38:280:38:30

Cos she was so upset at you carrying on with her mum's best friend.

0:38:300:38:34

What did you just say?

0:38:340:38:35

Well, doesn't matter now, does it? The point is that she's unhappy...

0:38:350:38:39

Course it matters!

0:38:390:38:41

What did you tell her?

0:38:410:38:43

-Kirsty!

-Will you give her a break?!

0:38:430:38:45

I want you out my house.

0:38:450:38:47

It's OK, you can go.

0:38:480:38:50

What have you said?

0:39:020:39:03

I can't make my mind up...

0:39:070:39:10

All I'm saying is, I think these new flats would be great for round here.

0:39:100:39:14

Ah, that's good to hear, son.

0:39:140:39:16

And I wouldn't have invested in it if I didn't think it was a good thing.

0:39:160:39:19

-Ah, well, fair enough.

-Come on, Malcolm...

0:39:190:39:22

Very moving, wee man.

0:39:270:39:29

Just remember whose money it is you invested, eh?

0:39:290:39:33

Can I have another Bloody Mary, please?

0:39:370:39:40

Hair of the dog.

0:39:400:39:41

I'll have a half.

0:39:410:39:43

I've had a chance to look at that motor. It's pretty smart.

0:39:430:39:46

Could be doing with some new brake pads, but apart from that, it's brand-new.

0:39:460:39:50

And at that price, it's a steal.

0:39:500:39:53

Bad news is - the numbers on the chassis don't add up.

0:39:540:39:58

So...

0:39:580:40:00

The motor's probably nicked.

0:40:000:40:01

So you should probably walk away.

0:40:030:40:05

Or...

0:40:050:40:07

You run the risk of losing it if it gets recognised.

0:40:070:40:09

Hey, I'm not the one that nicked it, I'm the victim here.

0:40:090:40:12

All I need is a wee cheap motor to get me from A to B,

0:40:120:40:15

why should I worry about where it came from?

0:40:150:40:17

-Unless you're planning to report it?

-Aye, right(!)

0:40:180:40:20

Cheers.

0:40:210:40:23

Let me buy you a pint.

0:40:230:40:24

Naw, I need to get back to work. I just came in for a bite to eat.

0:40:240:40:27

C'mon, wee man. Live a little.

0:40:270:40:28

And calling me wee man's not going to win you any favours either.

0:40:280:40:31

Sorry.

0:40:310:40:32

Look...I'm having a crap day.

0:40:320:40:35

I've just moved house,

0:40:350:40:36

the car I want to buy turns out to be nicked,

0:40:360:40:38

and oh, aye - my da just sacked me.

0:40:380:40:40

Have a pint with me.

0:40:410:40:43

All right, then.

0:40:450:40:46

Why would you make up something like that?

0:40:540:40:57

Is that what you believe?

0:40:580:41:01

Is it?!

0:41:010:41:02

Is that what your mum told you?

0:41:030:41:05

Come on, you were gobby enough earlier

0:41:070:41:08

when you were coming out with that rubbish!

0:41:080:41:10

All your own invention, then, eh?

0:41:140:41:16

So where did you get the booze?

0:41:200:41:22

Kirsty, I need to know.

0:41:240:41:26

Did you steal it?

0:41:270:41:28

Kirsty, look at me!

0:41:310:41:33

Did you?

0:41:360:41:37

Or did somebody put you up to it?

0:41:410:41:44

Where did you steal it from?

0:41:590:42:01

Does it matter?

0:42:030:42:05

Dad...!

0:42:050:42:07

I got it from the shop across the street.

0:42:110:42:14

I hope you're proud of yourself.

0:42:140:42:16

DOOR CLOSES

0:42:260:42:27

Naw, look, I need to get back to work.

0:42:310:42:33

-Aw, come on. One more.

-I've got a living to earn.

0:42:330:42:35

What, after four pints?

0:42:350:42:37

You're not going to be able to tell your couplings from your hub nuts.

0:42:370:42:40

Here...

0:42:400:42:42

For checking that motor over.

0:42:420:42:44

And, er...

0:42:450:42:46

..you can replace the brake pads as well.

0:42:480:42:51

I thought you just got sacked. Can you afford to buy a motor?

0:42:520:42:55

Only a nicked one.

0:42:550:42:56

And besides, buying a car will annoy my da.

0:42:560:42:59

-Do you know what we should do?

-Go on to coffee?

0:43:000:43:02

-Go into business together.

-Aye, right(!)

-No, I'm serious.

0:43:020:43:05

-I can pick up cheap cars and you can do them up...

-Whoa. Stop there.

0:43:050:43:08

From the same guy who found you the dodgy motor that I'm fixing the brake pads for?

0:43:080:43:11

Come on. I'll do all the supplying and selling -

0:43:110:43:14

-all you need to do is get them up to scratch.

-Is that all, aye?

0:43:140:43:17

Think about it as another investment, but with a fast return.

0:43:170:43:20

Look - I'll sort this motor for you and then...maybe we can talk, all right?

0:43:220:43:27

I think this is going to be the start of a great partnership.

0:43:290:43:32

Feeling better?

0:43:490:43:50

I'm sorry.

0:43:520:43:54

Yeah, well...

0:43:570:43:59

..I'm not the only person that deserves an apology.

0:44:000:44:04

And an explanation.

0:44:050:44:07

Come on, let's go.

0:44:130:44:14

-Dad...

-Don't "Dad" me!

0:44:200:44:23

-Is this her?

-No.

0:44:310:44:33

Where's the woman that runs this place?

0:44:330:44:35

You mean Scarlett? She's off shift.

0:44:350:44:38

Well, you know where I can find her?

0:44:380:44:39

I need to talk to her, it's important.

0:44:390:44:41

Well, you could try The Ship.

0:44:410:44:43

Move.

0:44:430:44:44

What if...Kennedy gets off?

0:44:470:44:49

He's not going to.

0:44:500:44:51

Where is she?

0:44:510:44:53

Over there.

0:44:530:44:55

My daughter needs to talk to you.

0:44:580:45:00

Well, go on!

0:45:020:45:03

-I'm sorry.

-Why?! Come on!

0:45:040:45:06

Dad! What are you doing? Stop this.

0:45:060:45:10

Kirsty!

0:45:100:45:12

I stole that bottle from your shop.

0:45:120:45:14

I think there's something you need to clear up.

0:45:170:45:21

-Dad, can we just...

-No! Tell her the truth.

0:45:210:45:23

-I lied.

-Come on, louder - I don't think she heard you.

0:45:260:45:30

Louder!

0:45:300:45:32

She made it up. I have never had any affairs.

0:45:360:45:41

Kirsty's mother left her family, leaving a note saying she'd taken a job in Dubai.

0:45:410:45:45

No explanation for her kids, or me!

0:45:450:45:49

Hasn't spoke to them since.

0:45:490:45:50

If she wants to get in touch with her kids, I'm not stopping her!

0:45:510:45:54

But don't you judge me on the lies my daughter tells.

0:45:570:45:59

Can we go now?

0:46:020:46:03

Get out my sight.

0:46:040:46:06

That should cover the bottle she nicked.

0:46:220:46:25

And any inconvenience you've suffered.

0:46:250:46:27

It's not his lassie's lies we'll be judging HIM on.

0:46:370:46:40

DOOR OPENS

0:46:410:46:42

Da...

0:46:440:46:45

Don't get mad at her.

0:46:460:46:48

She stole a bottle of booze.

0:46:480:46:49

-And told that lassie behind the bar I'd been having affairs.

-Give her a break!

0:46:490:46:52

So you think I should just let her away with it?

0:46:520:46:54

Da, come on. Mum told me you let it rip when you were a teenager, you'd think you'd understand.

0:46:540:46:59

It's not the same thing!

0:46:590:47:01

She's doing it cos she's upset about Mum.

0:47:010:47:03

Why else would she steal stuff and get drunk

0:47:030:47:07

and tell all sorts of crap to strangers?

0:47:070:47:09

You're just like your maw sometimes.

0:47:100:47:13

Is that a bad thing?

0:47:130:47:14

She has no excuse for telling those lies about me.

0:47:140:47:17

There's never been anybody but your mother.

0:47:170:47:20

Aye. Like anybody else would put up with YOU.

0:47:200:47:22

I just don't need Kirsty going off the rails.

0:47:240:47:26

She can't help the way she's feeling.

0:47:260:47:28

It's no excuse for thieving and lying.

0:47:290:47:33

Where do you get off? Do you really think you're that perfect?

0:47:330:47:36

I know this much.

0:47:380:47:39

You need to work hard to get on in life.

0:47:390:47:41

You're not going to get anywhere swanning about, doing what you want when you want.

0:47:410:47:45

All about the fun with you, isn't it?

0:47:450:47:46

Listen to you. I gave you a perfectly good job opportunity.

0:47:460:47:50

-I didn't ask you for the job.

-No, you'd be happy sitting in the pub, getting drunk all day.

0:47:500:47:53

Well, you're going to have to work for a living, son, you're no' living off me.

0:47:530:47:57

Do you think I'm here cos I want to live off you?

0:47:570:48:00

I'm here for Kirsty, to make sure you don't screw her up.

0:48:000:48:03

You've had a pretty good crack at that the day, haven't you?

0:48:030:48:06

Are you going to hit me? Go for it.

0:48:080:48:11

She misses her.

0:48:170:48:19

I miss her.

0:48:200:48:22

You miss her too, right?

0:48:240:48:26

Why did she leave?

0:48:300:48:32

You tell me.

0:48:320:48:33

Why would she just walk out on us?

0:48:340:48:36

You think this is about me?

0:48:390:48:41

You think this is my fault?!

0:48:410:48:43

-I don't know. You don't talk to us.

-Because I'm in the dark as much as you!

0:48:430:48:47

I'm the one that's still here!

0:48:470:48:49

Your maw left. You saw the note.

0:48:520:48:55

So we can cry and moan and make a big drama out of it. Or we can just get on with things.

0:48:560:49:01

Well, maybe Kirsty can't just get on with things. Maybe none of us can.

0:49:010:49:06

So you tell me - what's the alternative?

0:49:090:49:13

Just...don't take it out on Kirsty.

0:49:130:49:15

You might have given up on Mum, but we need to be able to believe -

0:49:160:49:20

to hope that she might come back.

0:49:210:49:23

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:49:390:49:40

Can I come in?

0:49:440:49:45

You OK?

0:49:540:49:56

He thinks it's my fault Mum left.

0:49:570:50:00

That's rubbish.

0:50:000:50:02

He's just hurt and...angry, and he's taking it out on both of us.

0:50:030:50:07

-The only difference is he loves you.

-Kirst, you're his daughter.

0:50:080:50:12

-Of course he loves you.

-He hates me.

-Hey...

0:50:120:50:14

It didn't seem to matter before because it was you and me and Mum and that way we could cope with him.

0:50:160:50:22

At least he likes hanging out with you.

0:50:230:50:25

-Since when?

-Well, he gave you that job.

0:50:250:50:29

Yeah, well, look how that worked out. He sacked me today.

0:50:290:50:34

But he likes having you around.

0:50:360:50:38

You're like Mum, you make him laugh.

0:50:380:50:40

You know I'm right.

0:50:420:50:44

He can never stay angry at you, but he doesn't know what to do with me or what to say.

0:50:450:50:50

Well, you can be weird.

0:50:500:50:52

Funny. But weird.

0:50:520:50:54

Remember when you were wee, Mum used to have to play invisible marbles

0:50:560:50:59

with you at the bus stop to stop you getting bored?

0:50:590:51:01

OK, I'll give you that, that was weird.

0:51:010:51:03

What are we going to do without her, Gus?

0:51:150:51:18

Maybe we need a plan.

0:51:200:51:22

Like what?

0:51:220:51:23

To get out of here.

0:51:230:51:24

You can finish school.

0:51:250:51:28

We can manage on our own.

0:51:280:51:29

How could you afford it? Dad just fired you.

0:51:290:51:31

I've got some ideas to make money,

0:51:310:51:33

I'll just need to...push them on a bit, that's all.

0:51:330:51:36

Really? You think we could?

0:51:360:51:39

Just try and bear with it a bit longer, will you?

0:51:390:51:42

Look...

0:51:480:51:50

..I think we've all had time to calm down.

0:51:530:51:56

Could you both come downstairs? I want to talk to you.

0:51:580:52:02

I know this is a difficult time for you.

0:52:290:52:31

You miss your mum. And I understand that.

0:52:330:52:36

And I appreciate that it might affect the way that we act.

0:52:400:52:42

But we need to find a way to get along.

0:52:450:52:47

Without Mum.

0:52:490:52:50

Aye.

0:52:510:52:53

We're still a family.

0:52:530:52:55

The truth is...

0:53:010:53:03

..this contract, the move here...

0:53:040:53:06

..it's huge, for all of us.

0:53:070:53:10

It keeps a roof over our heads, food on the table.

0:53:100:53:13

It'll give you the chances that a parent wants to give their kids.

0:53:140:53:17

I need you two to hold it together.

0:53:180:53:20

It doesn't help that you go out getting drunk and insulting the neighbourhood.

0:53:220:53:25

These people...

0:53:250:53:27

..these are the people that need to be convinced about the project that I am in charge of.

0:53:280:53:32

That I'm a good guy to run it.

0:53:320:53:34

I'm asking for your support here.

0:53:370:53:39

I can't do the stuff for you that your mum did.

0:53:420:53:44

I can't be that person.

0:53:460:53:48

But you're both old enough now to adapt.

0:53:490:53:51

Can you do that?

0:53:540:53:55

What's happening to Mum's stuff?

0:53:590:54:01

It's all going into storage.

0:54:030:54:05

But...you can keep a few bits and pieces.

0:54:060:54:10

What? I'm trying my best here.

0:54:230:54:27

The date for the next meeting of

0:56:280:56:29

the fostering panel has been brought forward.

0:56:290:56:31

-Till when?

-Friday.

0:56:310:56:33

This Friday?

0:56:330:56:35

I brought you these.

0:56:350:56:36

What do you want?

0:56:380:56:39

A date.

0:56:390:56:41

I've put you down as a reference.

0:56:410:56:42

What - for a job?

0:56:420:56:44

For me to be a foster carer.

0:56:440:56:47

Look, I need to understand what bit of this you've got a problem with.

0:56:470:56:50

Is it that Will and Robbie are two blokes -

0:56:500:56:52

or that they're two gay blokes?

0:56:520:56:54

You're asking them to trust you with a vulnerable kid,

0:56:540:56:57

-and not told them everything.

-Kelly...

0:56:570:56:58

I'm not going to be part of your cover-up.

0:56:580:57:00

Either you tell them what Will is, or I'm going to.

0:57:000:57:03

What are you not telling me?

0:57:030:57:05

There is something that... happened in the past.

0:57:050:57:09

Go on.
