Episode 5 Red Rock

-The money from the pub.

-What money?

There's thousands of euros missing from the books.

Mum found out about the money,

-but now she wants the money back - all of it.

-I don't have that much.

Well, if I don't have it,

she's going to start wondering what happened to the money.

-You ran off and left me the butt of everyone's jokes.

-I've changed.

-Too late.

-You heard him. Out you go.

Her name is Rachel. She's a friend of my daughter's.

She just...she went for it, kissed me.

But I stopped it. You saw that.

What did I do?!

Just watch yourself. Get in, you dope.

HE SHOUTS INCOMPREHENSIBLY

Happy birthday, Skip!

Don't know what you're talking about.

Is it your birthday?

Skipper doesn't like too much fuss about her birthdays.

Yeah. I have an auntie just like that...

and she isn't even as old as you.

-HE WHISTLES CHEERFULLY

-Morning, Sarge.

DOORBELL RINGS

HE SIGHS

-Ah, no. No. No way.

-Vincent, it's not what you think.

Vincent, please.

I've come to say I'm leaving.

I'm going back to Spain today.

I just wanted to say goodbye to my boy and to Katie.

I just want to say goodbye.

Think I've worn out my welcome next door.

Did she give you the subtle hint, did she?

If you call a packed suitcase and the Ryanair website subtle,

then yeah.

And there's nothing here for me now.

Katie is in work.

Keith's only going down the shop. He won't be long.

And I wanted to get something of Darren's to take back with me.

Yeah. Anything you want.

I was...going to bag his stuff

and bring it to charity or something, you know.

Well, I could do that for you.

I thought you had a plane to catch.

It's not until this evening.

OK.

Just the woman I was looking for.

Look, we're all going for a few jars tonight

to celebrate Angela's birthday.

I thought she didn't want any fuss.

Doesn't mean the rest of us can't have a few jars in her honour.

I'm not sure if I can. I arranged to meet a friend.

Come on, Cleere. You're part of the team now.

Time we all got to know you a little bit better.

-Sharon, we're on a shout.

-I'll think about it.

ALARM BLARES

-Get out! You shouldn't be here!

-WOMAN SHOUTING

This is Frank's house!

Please! Please! Just leave! Oh!

-ALL CHEER

-Go on, Jack!

Ah!

-You think it's OK to hit a woman?

-POLICE SIREN BLARES

This is going to be fun.

Boys...

SHE SOBS

-I warned her to get out.

-You like threatening women, do you?

-Make you feel like a big man?

-He's not a man. He's a buffoon.

That's Frank's flat. She's trespassing.

I have a signed lease.

-Come over here and they think they can take our homes.

-Stop.

So, if this is Frank's flat, where is he?

-He's on his way.

-There's more of her stuff inside.

-I have a lease. I can show you.

-Doesn't matter what the lease says.

-Remind me again, who are you?

-Frank's my mate.

And this has nothing to do with you, will you please move back?

-Do you see what they're doing?

-Move back or I will arrest you.

Lived here all me life and I'm the one being moved?

She's in the country five minutes and they can't do enough for her.

How is that right?

Right, let's get you moved in.

-ALL CHEER

-Go on, Frank!

Great.

HORSE RACE COMMENTARY ON TV BLARES IN BACKGROUND

VINCENT SHOUTS IN BACKGROUND

So, what do you think?

I think it cost a lot more than you're telling me.

A coffee shop without good coffee is like a...

-Plane that doesn't fly.

-Thank you. Somebody gets it.

Well, why couldn't we have gotten the two-seater propeller

instead of the Airbus?

You taste it, you'll understand.

Argh!

Everything's gone. My cups, knives. Even my camping stove.

It was exactly like this when I came.

All I've got left is what I'm standing in,

and half of this belongs to the hospital.

I suppose you don't have proof of tenancy.

The lease was here with all my other stuff.

Here, missus, they're taking all your stuff.

-HE WOLF WHISTLES

-This is all I have.

We'll get them back for you.

Right.

It's nothing to do with me. I tried to stop them.

They wouldn't listen.

ALL JEER AND SHOUT

I'm warning you.

-Get out of here!

-Go on!

-Go on, pigs!

Right, leave it.

Get the two of them inside. I'll call for back-up. Leave it!

ALL SHOUT

GLASS SHATTERS

MAN SPEAKS OVER WALKIE-TALKIE

Sure you don't want another pair of hands?

You know you're SO today. That means radio, phones and hatch.

Make sure no-one nicks that Biro. It's our last one.

-And what if it all kicks off?

-We'll tell you all about it.

SIREN BLARES

Not easy running a business without electricity.

-Whatever it is, undo it now.

-It's probably just a tripped switch.

Key to your fuse board.

Oh, if only you were so keen to sort out your tenants' problems.

Three weeks ago you said you'd sort out our electrics,

and the power went again this morning.

I left a message for the electrician.

I don't know what it is you think you're trying to achieve,

but you're wasting your time, OK?

Even if I did try to persuade Niamh not testify against Michael,

which I won't, it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference.

The police have her statement and they can submit it as evidence

whether she agrees or not.

So, please, sort out the cafe.

Or find yourself a new tenant.

PHONE RINGS

Hello? DIAL TONE

-Yes!

-Where is everybody?

-On a call-out, boss.

-All of them?

It was all kicking off in the Ridge Estate.

Sounded brilliant.

You know what I mean?

Being out there on the streets getting stuck in.

That's why we do it.

That's why we sign up. That's real policing.

Not...

-Not that what you do isn't real policing too.

-Thank you.

We all need reports.

-I do more than just write up reports.

-Oh, yeah.

Course you do.

All the other stuff you do, that's...really important too.

Do you not miss it, being out there on the streets?

Yeah, sometimes.

Let me know when they all get back.

Will do.

Come on.

Watch this one.

What about him?

He didn't throw anything but he's been stirring it up, all right.

-Has he now?

-Yeah.

I want you to leave this area, please.

Didn't do nothing.

Move.

Move...now...

or I'll hit you so hard you'll beg me to kick you.

-Big man in a uniform.

-What did you say?

Both claim it's their flat. She has a lease, looks legit.

He says he does too but it's with all his stuff that's been stolen.

We'll get the agent who's leasing this place down here right now.

-HORSE RACE COMMENTARY ON TV Go on.

-Here you go. Yes.

-Come on.

-Here we go. Yes.

-Go.

-Yes.

-Go.

-Go on!

-Go on!

-Go on!

-Go on!

-Go on!

-Yes!

-Go on!

-Yes!

-Argh!

-Yes! Yes! Yes! Yeah!

-Argh!

-Yes!

-Jammy!

Yes!

-Here.

-What's that?

A present from Darren.

-Dead man's shoes.

-Brand-new size tens.

Sweet.

Everything is bagged.

I just took his St Christopher medallion.

I left a bracelet and a ring on the bedside table for Katie.

Cheers.

This is for you, Vinny.

Put it towards Darren's funeral expenses.

Thanks.

He was my son too.

I don't know about you two, but I'm parched.

Anyone fancy one for the road in Hennessy's?

-BOTH:

-We're barred.

We'll see about that.

So, fill that in, bring it back with your passport photos

-and I'll stamp it for you then.

-Cheers.

-OK?

Are you all right there, Holden?

You wouldn't have a pen I could borrow, do you, boss?

-Sure.

-Thanks.

When I said borrow, I meant keep.

They steal that Biro again, did they?

Sergeant Tyrell warned me to watch it.

-If I tell you where she keeps her secret stash...

-I'll cross my lips.

I swear.

Come on.

I never gave you this.

Give me what, sir?

Hey.

-What did you say?

-HE SIGHS

Clearly not enough.

I wouldn't say that.

Hey!

Her electrician turned up, keen as mustard.

So it's all sorted. Patricia Hennessey is off our back.

-Looks like it.

-Everything is up and running in here.

I take it she knows you hired a Kiely?

Better enjoy the ceasefire while it lasts.

Hey. How'd it go?

-Absolutely amazing.

-Really?

It was an actual riot.

A riot? They said incident on the radio.

Riot, incident, whatever.

It was like in the movies, you know, with all the chasing and fighting.

-Seriously?

-Yeah, and cars on fire.

Helicopters all over the place with big machine guns.

-Very funny.

-Girls. Girls, Sean, in bikinis. Dinosaur robots.

And superheroes.

All quiet now.

It was getting a bit hairy earlier before you lot showed up.

Yeah, well, that's what we're here for.

Like the Alamo, and you were the cavalry.

Except there was no cavalry at the Alamo.

I prefer our version.

Ah, yeah. No, we all stick together, cover each other's backs.

That's the way it works. Tell her, Paudge.

Absolutely, Skip. Bang on.

Yeah. Us against everyone.

First thing you learn on the job.

See? All your stuff is safe and sound.

Call this safe and sound?

Hold on a minute. That had nothing to do with me. I'm...

HE SIGHS Fine. We'll pay to get that fixed.

Great. Now, can we sort out whose flat this is?

Yeah. Here. This is the lease I was given.

Yep. Looks all clear to me.

-Frank?

-I can't find it.

Someone must've taken it.

-I'm sorry, I can't serve you.

-Oh, we haven't come for a drink.

I'm here to say goodbye to your mother. Be rude not to.

So, get Patricia on the phone there like a good boy

and tell her Bridget Kiely is waiting for her.

HE SIGHS

Hi, Mum. It's David.

Mrs Kiely is here, said she wants to say goodbye.

Yeah, that's what she says.

Yeah, she's on her way.

While we're waiting, I'll have a highball and ginger ale

with fresh ice, whatever they're having.

-The usual.

-Smoke?

I'm sorry, Frank. I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Oh, no. I'm not going nowhere.

-No, you have no proof of any tenancy agreement.

-But it's my home.

Eunice has a lease.

So, I get sick and I go to hospital and she steals my flat.

-I didn't steal anything.

-Someone like her.

-Like what?

-Yeah, you mind what you say, Frank.

It's your fault. You should've never given her a lease.

Me?! Frank, hold on one second. ALL TALK OVER ONE ANOTHER

I have a lease. I have every right to be in this apartment.

I have to ask you to leave.

You have no right. You couldn't even provide a lease, Frank.

ALL CONTINUE TALKING OVER ONE ANOTHER

-I'm doing my job here.

-No, you're not!

-Eunice, I'm doing my job here.

-What's he doing here?

I have every right to be here. This is ridiculous.

I don't understand what you're saying!

Enough!

Can you not find another empty flat?

There are no more flats. We've had nothing for weeks.

There's no record of his tenancy agreement?

No. We've been asked to re-let.

That's why his stuff's in the cupboard.

Frank, get off the floor. You'll catch your death.

-You're not taking me anywhere.

-Don't make me arrest you.

Touch me and there's consequences for that bitch.

Right...

Move. Now!

-COUGHING

-Oh, my God!

Keep going. Cover your mouth.

-My stuff!

-No, leave it. We have to go, now!

"You're going to have to put a muzzle on that thing,"

but he doesn't like that so he starts giving me the usual,

"I can do what I like and you can't tell me what to do."

So, I wait calmly until he's finished his ranting and raging,

and I says to them...

"I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to the dog."

That's lousy now. No, Brian. That's lousy.

ALL COUGH

Where's Frank?

Angela!

HE COUGHS

HE GROANS

Frank, I've got you.

-My inhaler, it's in my pocket.

-It's all right. Let's get you out.

-Angela!

-No, I've got him!

ALL COUGH It's OK, Frank.

We're out in the fresh air now.

ALL CONTINUE COUGHING

OK, can you see it?

I'm having him.

-Whoo!

-SHE LAUGHS

Whoo!

Oh, go on, you good thing. HE LAUGHS

What do you think, Vinny? Have I still got it?

You bet you, love.

Like jelly on a plate, huh? HE CHUCKLES

What do you think, David? Have I still got it?

Oh, don't be traumatising the boy.

Are you joking? People pay to see this sort of thing.

Come here, baby cub, and let mama cougar look after you.

Oh, Ma.

-Please, Mrs Kiely.

-You just follow my lead.

-Whoo!

-SHE LAUGHS

Get away from my son.

SHE CHUCKLES

Well, I didn't think you'd show.

When I heard you were leaving, I had to come,

make sure you had the taxi fare to the airport.

Use the change to get that hair coloured professionally.

I don't need your charity.

I would say that's exactly what you need.

-Come on, Bridge. Let's go.

-No. No, no.

I haven't finished with my goodbyes just yet.

I won't pretend I ever liked you, Patricia Hennessy...

..but I thought even you'd come and see me after Darren died.

Offer your condolences, one mother to another.

At least try to understand what it's like

to lose your son just shy of 25.

But you haven't even pretended to care.

Haven't offered one single word of comfort.

Not when Darren lay cold on the mortuary slab

or when we put him in the ground or any time since.

No "sorry for your loss".

Not even a little card.

A "sorry that my son murdered your son".

I never got to say goodbye to my baby.

And still you stand here

as if it's nothing to do with you or your family.

Do you know what?

I used to feel sorry for you

when your husband was running around town

with that one in the little skirt.

But now I understand. I get it.

It's just what you do when you're married to a cold-hearted cow.

Get out.

Keep your money.

It's all you've got.

Come on, boys.

-Get in!

-We didn't do nothing.

You won't mind us swabbing your hands for petrol.

I was fixing my lawnmower.

Shut the door.

I want to see a solicitor.

We have a colleague on her way to hospital because of you.

Because of me?

HE CHOKES

Anything happens to her and I swear this won't end well for you.

Brian.

HE GASPS

-Brian.

-Sir.

-Just heard they've taken Angela to St Helens.

Yeah, yeah. She wasn't keen, but the paramedics insisted.

-What kind of injuries?

-Smoke inhalation. No burns.

That's something, I suppose.

-And the fire?

-Looks like it's arson.

-Any suspects?

-Yeah, we've got one in custody

and there was a whole crowd around, so someone must have seen something.

We're going to do a door-to-door.

-OK, if it is arson, I want someone for it.

-Yes, sir. We all do.

-And let me know as soon as you hear anything from the hospital.

-Yeah.

Oh, and, sir, Sharon was stellar out there today.

-Really kept her head under pressure.

-Good job.

-Thank you, sir.

You heard the man. He wants someone charged. Jack's our man.

I want you to liaise with the fire department,

get a copy of their report once it's completed.

Then I want you back out in the flat.

Go and talk to their neighbours.

See if anyone was around the back of the flat when the fire was started.

Yes, sir.

Sarge.

You should have seen him.

When he wasn't busting heads, he was racing into the fire

with just a mini extinguisher, like Bruce Willis.

Well, maybe if you work really, really hard, Paudge,

-you can be like Brian, too, when you grow up.

-Tell them, Sharon.

Tell them what Brian was like out at that ruck. Like RoboCop.

What about Sergeant Tyrell? She saved that man's life.

Yeah, she was all right, too.

SHE COUGHS

You look like Wile E Coyote after the bomb goes off.

That's not funny.

-It's only soot, Stephen.

-You think this is bad,

you should've seen her the time the burglar broke her jaw.

Face out to here.

-The doctors said they're keeping you in overnight.

-Just precautionary.

You'd do anything to get out of a birthday bash.

There's no party now?

Parties aren't as important at my age.

But we got you a cake and Da said we could order pizza.

Sorry, darling. There's nothing I can do.

There never is. I hate your job.

Hey.

I'm impressed.

-That I'm adding value to your property?

-That, too.

But mainly that you've turned your fish shop

into a place that I might almost like to eat in.

HE CHUCKLES I should steal that.

The Neptune Cafe - a place you might almost like to eat in.

Of course, it helps that we have electricity now.

-You owe me for that.

-I won't even try to fathom that logic.

Look, I hope it's a huge success for you.

-I mean it.

-We have the tea towels.

-Hi.

-Hi.

-And the candles.

Maybe you could just leave them in the kitchen, please.

Patricia.

You gave Katie Kiely a job?

She's a bright girl. She works hard. She's honest.

-She's a Kiely.

-That doesn't mean

she doesn't deserve a chance like everybody else.

She's not like everybody else. Not to me.

Liam, I've been good to you,

generous when your shop was struggling.

I helped you get this place set up. So why would you do this?

Why would you give her a job when you knew how I felt about it?

I thought you were sabotaging the cafe...

..and I was angry.

OK, you've made your point. Now fire her.

-I can't.

-Of course you can.

You just walk in there and you tell her there's no job.

Yeah, I'm sorry, I can't do that.

I see.

The working man's champagne. HE CHUCKLES

If I knew that you were going to put Patricia Hennessy

into a box like that, I'd have sold tickets.

Did you see the face on her? It was like a burst balloon!

Won't make a difference. Not to Darren.

Darren is dead.

We can't change that now.

What you did - standing up for the family...

..shaming Patricia Hennessy in front of all those people

made me proud.

Proud to be a Kiely.

They're no better than us, Vinny.

All right?

-Come and sit beside me.

-I'm fine here.

-Do it for your mammy.

-No.

Been looking for you everywhere. I stole you a thank you present.

SHE LAUGHS

WOMEN CHAT ON TV

Get off me!

-Get a room, huh?

-Come on.

-You sure this is what you want?

-As eggs is eggs.

Seriously?

Come on. I didn't mean actually get a room.

-THEY LAUGH

-Don't forget my suitcase.

PHONE RINGS Spoke to some of the neighbours,

but it's pretty clear none of them would be willing to ID Jack

or give evidence against him.

-Fear of reprisals?

-That'd be my take on it.

Any word on emergency housing for Eunice?

Do we release O'Reilly?

No, let him stew for a while.

And that's when your mother appeared through the smoke, grabbed me.

She saved your life?

I didn't save his life. I was just doing my job.

Yeah, she saved my life, not that there's much left of it.

The doctors reckon three months.

They want me to go into a hospice.

Proper care and all that.

But I was hoping to spend it at home.

There is no tenancy agreement, is there?

PHONE RINGS

Claire, darling.

Oh, that sounds great.

What time?

Actually, I...I can't.

I have this dinner thing with a customer this evening.

OK, another time.

Come to charge me?

Didn't think so.

I'm not going to forget this.

That's what all the mots say when I'm done.

Hope your mate makes a full recovery.

Someone here needs a word, Sarge.

Not just yet.

Don't think that's too much to ask.

22 years, I lived there, paying the rent,

and all I wanted was three months.

I said, "Wait three months before letting it out."

But they couldn't even do that.

They're so hungry for money.

So, I told Jack to do it.

I said if you couldn't get her out, then burn the place down.

So, you told Jack O'Reilly to burn down the flat?

Yeah.

Then he threw the petrol bomb into the flat?

Yeah.

Get that file in so we can make a charge on Mr O'Reilly.

Sir.

SOFT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYS

-I wasn't sure you were going to show.

-Neither was I.

-I presume you haven't fired Katie Kiely.

-No.

Because it isn't what you really want.

-Is that right?

-Yeah.

It's how you think you should behave...

..or how other people expect you to behave.

But I know that's not you.

You don't want some young girl punished

for something that has nothing to do with her.

I know you're better than that.

Kinder.

Fairer.

More beautiful.

-So, good news. The flat's yours.

-Seriously?

-Yeah.

Now, there's a bit of smoke damage. It'll have to be repainted.

I...I can do that.

And if you've any more trouble with those teenagers...

No, no, you won't have to worry about that.

Frank's going to have a word with them,

let them know you have his blessing.

Thank you. Thank you so, so much.

-BOTH:

-# Happy birthday to you

# Happy birthday to you... #

Seeing how much you love your birthday,

we figured we had to do something for you, as it is your 50th, too.

SHE GASPS Hawaiian.

Your birthday, your favourite.

Hey! This is where you've been hiding out all afternoon, huh?

Don't tell me we missed the strip-o-gram!

-You better be joking, Holden.

-We brought you a present, Sarge.

-How are you feeling?

-I'm fine. I'll be back in tomorrow.

Well, maybe the day after.

Happy birthday.

See, this is what we do.

We stick together, have each other's backs.

Don't forget that.
