23/08/2016 River City

You realise the trouble you're causing, coming back here?

It's your baby.

As soon as I'm satisfied that Brodie isn't going to cause any trouble,

-Cal will be sent right back over to you.

-Get Cal, and we leave.

You don't get to control Kelly-Marie any more.

-We're leaving, Jimmy.

-What?

I'm standing up for Kel - something you should've done a long time ago.

Don't dare put him in that car.

-Gabriel!

-If he dies, it's murder.

Nobody's going to jail, all right?

I know it was the Murdochs behind this.

I need your statement about what happened.

Can we just go over it again?

So you were at the window, and you saw...

There was an altercation.

Hold on a minute, Inspector.

We need reassurances.

Reassurances?

I was thinking Spain.

I'm sorry, what?

Or Greece.

Actually, where it's warmer during the winter months.

Molly, the police need to know what we saw.

I'm really sorry - you've lost me.

Witness protection, Inspector.

Just ignore her.

Come on now, Molly, this is really serious.

Gabriel has been badly hurt.

So could we be if we grass on Murdoch!

So it was Lenny?

-I never said that.

-Erm...

I actually had the wrong specs on,

but from what I THINK happened,

Alex was very angry with Gabriel.

Did you see Alex hit Gabriel before he fell?

Oh, you know...

I just couldn't comment on that, I'm afraid.

I didn't see.

Her eyesight's not quite what it used to be, Inspector.

Did you see Alex hit him at all?

He just dropped like a sack of potatoes.

That's all we saw.

So it could have been an accident?

Mmm, I suppose it could have been.

So, should we be packing our bags?

We'll be in touch.

Well, the two witnesses in the charity shop are no use.

So let's get an early request in for CCTV,

-get more feet on the ground and start door-to-door.

-Sure.

Is he going to make it, Annie?

'I don't know.

-'It's not looking good.'

-OK.

Well, keep me informed.

What did she say?

Is he dead?

No' yet.

Right, when the polis come...

Come on, let's hear the stories.

Erm...

Brodie kicked off,

attacked you,

it got out of control...

He threw the first punch...

I was defending Lenny.

Erm...

He fell, hit his head on the wall.

I never touched him.

I did nothing wrong either.

-I tried to calm things down.

-OK.

After you say that...

everything else is no comment.

Cos they'll try and trick you. You know that.

DOORBELL CHIMES

Right, they're here.

No, no, there's nae news, Bubba.

So you and Patrick just stay wi' Madonna and Cal.

Aye, that'd be great.

Don't tell them anything the now, no.

No. I'll speak to them later, all right?

So, have you, erm...

Have you made your mind up, about...

talking to the police?

The father of my baby's at death's door,

and all you care about is protecting Lenny?!

I'm trying to protect you.

They're not getting away with it, Jimmy. They're not.

Kelly-Marie.

No...

He's still alive.

But there were complications.

What kind of complications?

I'm not sure exactly.

He's still critical.

Oh, my God...

So...you mean he still might die?

I'm sorry it's not better news.

Oh, well. Thanks anyway, Annie.

What are you thanking her for?

Well, she tried to save him.

It was her lover that did this!

Aye, but it's no' her fault.

So now you know what he's like, eh?

-Get used to being blood-stained.

-Kelly!

I don't want to be involved.

You don't want to be involved?

It's a bit late for that, isn't it?

Your boyfriend battered Gabriel, so you're already involved.

We don't know what happened exactly.

What did you just say?

-Kelly-Marie...

-Are you defending him?

No. I'm not.

I'm just....

It was a fight.

-One that left Gabriel fighting for his life.

-Kelly-Marie...

-I don't want you here.

-I just want to help...

I said I don't want you here!

I think you'd better go.

I'm gonnae tell them everything, Annie -

that it was Alex and Amber that did this to Gabriel. Aye.

So it'll just be you and Lenny left

rattling about in that big house from now on,

cos your man's going to jail.

Nice house.

Yeah, well, if I'd known you were coming,

I'd have put out the good china.

Not much of a family feel.

No photos on the walls.

Bit cold.

More like a prison cell.

Still, each to their own, eh?

Is there anything we can do for you, Detective?

Well, children...

have we been a bit naughty?

I've got Gabriel Brodie in the hospital,

with a rather large bump on his head.

Nothing to say?

Well, I've also got two witnesses

who say they saw you two in a "rammy" with the victim,

earlier this evening.

He threw the first punch.

It wasn't our fault.

I never touched him.

He fell.

So, are we done, Craig?

Why? Is it past their bedtime or something?

Thanks for filling me in.

It's been a real pleasure.

I need to get back to the hospital,

see if this is a murder investigation yet.

Might have to console some very distraught friends of Mr Brodie,

who will, no doubt, want to see justice served.

Don't go too far, you pair.

I'll see myself out.

DOOR CLOSES

DOOR OPENS

Don't say anything, right. I'm begging you. Lenny will kill you.

Aye, but he hasnae yet, has he?

Inspector.

How's Gabriel?

Well, no-one's telling us anything.

I got a message you wanted to see me?

Kelly-Marie?

Alex and Amber Murdoch.

They did this to Gabriel.

Come on, eat up. You're going to be in the cells all night,

and you don't want to be eating the grub in there.

You should know that better than anybody.

Eat something.

That's right, you get blootered - cos that's really gonnae help(!)

We're done. What does it matter?

One night. You sit tight.

I sort things.

DOORBELL CHIMES

And you stick with the story.

I'm not staying.

Just came to get my stuff.

Get in there. Sweeten her up.

She doesn't want to know.

You're gonnae need somebody

to counter Kelly-Marie's version of what happened.

-Somebody reliable.

-Like a GP.

At least one of you's got the brains.

I can't ask her to do that.

She was there when it happened.

-She saw.

-She saw...

whatever you need her to have seen.

DOOR OPENS

Hey.

Is there any update.

-Do you care?

-Of course I care. I don't want him to...

I didn't mean for it to get so out of hand.

The next few hours are crucial.

-But he's over the worst of it?

-Like I said...

we'll know in the next few hours if he wakes up.

Please don't go.

I saw what happened.

Not all of it.

He attacked my dad.

Maybe, but did you have to punch Gabriel so hard

that he cracked his head off a wall?

Have the police spoken to you yet?

Because they will.

And is that all you're worried about?

DOORBELL CHIMES

Evening.

Oh, what's this? The last supper?

-What's going on?

-Ah...

Alex, Amber Murdoch,

I'm arresting you for the assault of Gabriel Brodie

on 2nd of August 2016.

You've got nothing on them.

You've the right to remain silent.

Anything you do say will be noted down

-and may be used in evidence against you in a court of law.

-Dad...

I'll get you out, darling. I'll get yous both out!

Don't go, please.

Enjoy the rest of your dinner.

I'll get the door.

Why aren't they telling us anything?

I don't know, hen.

I don't know. PHONE RINGS

Is that him?

-That yer master?

-Let me talk tae him!

Aye...like that's going to help matters.

Do you think Donald's taken them in?

No doubt.

Kelly-Marie Adams?

So, Alexander...

Alex.

..could you tell me where you were

at approximately ten past seven this evening?

No comment.

We have a witness -

a witness who says you punched Gabriel Brodie,

causing him significant injury.

No comment.

He was just hanging on, last time I checked - Gabriel.

He might even be dead now.

How does that make you feel?

That takes things up a notch, doesn't it?

Potential murder charge?

In your daddy's league now,

with the big boys.

Only difference being

you're looking at a long stretch, whereas Lenny...

he never gets caught.

So, not exactly a chip off the old block.

Sorry, do you have daddy issues or something?

Just the way you keep going on about mine.

Lenny was worried that Gabriel Brodie

was going to take his grandson away from him. That right?

Look, Alex, I'm going to level with you.

I think it was Lenny that put you up to this.

That would devastate Lenny, wouldn't it?

The only connection to his dead son snatched away.

Don't know.

I'm not into pound-shop psychology.

Please, Gabriel...

..please, wake up.

See, I want us to grow old together.

Spend holidays and... Christmases together.

Me, you and Callum.

And...

this wee madam, of course.

That's what I want, Gabriel,

more than anything in the world.

So, don't you dare leave me.

You hear me?

Please don't leave me.

I can't do this without you.

Gabriel?

Gabriel...

How's he doing?

Well, we won't know until he wakes up.

That's IF he wakes up.

It's down to your kids if he doesnae.

Do you hear me, Lenny?

They're gonnae pay for this.

So you done it again, eh?

I suppose, once a grass...

The police asked me what happened, so I told them.

Why do you keep putting me in this position, Kel?

Why do you keep putting pressure on me. You testing me?

Do you not like breathing, is that what it is?

Alex did this.

He went too far!

Alex was defending me - his old man.

He nearly killed him!

It was a fight.

He threw the first punch. Then he went over in a tumble.

So where do we go now, eh?

I mean, Alex's in trouble, thanks to you.

You've got to know I'm gonnae do anything to keep him out of jail.

And Amber?

That goes without saying.

Cos I'd kill for that girl.

When are you due, Kel? Hmm?

I bet you'd do anything to protect your child?

Well, I'm the same.

So, you phone Donald, you tell him you've changed your story.

Say you were confused - you know, stress, whatever...

But get it done.

No.

Excuse me?

You heard me.

Don't, Kel.

What you going to do?

Are we doing this?

Really?

Why?

What's the worst that could happen?

You gonnae kill me?

Right here, right now?

Come on, then.

Do it.

No-one else around, Lenny.

Come on.

You can't, can you?

See, I know you still think you're the big gangster,

but you'd never hurt a pregnant woman.

Me, him and Callum,

are gonnae get as far away from you as possible.

You'll never see your grandson again.

Soon as Gabriel wakes up.

Better make sure he doesnae then, eh?

You know,

security in these places is never any good.

You phone Donald...

..you tell him you're changing your statement,

or he's dead.

Look at me.

Is that gangster enough for you?

DOOR OPENS

DOOR SLAMS

TAPE RECORDER BEEPS

You know, for such a smart girl, you can be pretty stupid sometimes.

It's like you're desperate to get back into prison.

Look, Alex already told us you were both there.

But he also told us Lenny put him up to it.

You're lying.

Amber, you've already taken one for your dad.

You're not seriously going to do this again, are you?

-What's my dad got to do with this?

-He wanted rid of Gabriel.

What, did he tell Alex to go and have a quiet word,

things got out of hand - that what happened?

No.

Don't play games, Amber.

The rules are very different for you.

Oh, you think I don't know that?

One step out of line and you'll be back in there,

for another five years - minimum.

I tell you what, I'll have a wee word, shall I?

See if we can't get you your old cell back.

I'm sure you've missed it.

OK. Let's leave Daddy out of this, for now.

We've got a very reliable witness

who can tell us exactly what happened tonight.

Alex's ex-missus, by any chance?

You know I can't tell you that.

Kelly-Marie's hardly reliable.

Well, this witness alleges that Alex punched Gabriel so hard

he smashed his head.

Sounds like an accident to me.

But did he punch him?

No comment.

OK.

It WAS an accident.

Alex will probably get away with a caution.

But you?

No.

Bit more complicated.

Because our witness also told us

that you were involved in the fight -

definite breach of licence, that.

So, once again, you're going to take the fall

for something you didn't start.

Five years for your brother this time.

Your life ruined all over again.

Would Alex do the same thing for you, you think?

Do you?

I don't think so.

Just tell me, Amber.

Tell me the truth.

That Alex hit Gabriel, and that Lenny put him up to it.

No...

comment.

OK.

I hope the bed bugs don't bite.

Lock her up.

HE KNOCKS ON WINDOW

You all right, Jimmy?

You look like you could do with a drink.

I told her not to make that statement.

I warned her!

I gave her chance after chance.

Aye, you have.

I was good to her.

-You were.

-Now she goes and stabs me in the back again?

I tried to make her see sense, I swear to you.

You know, I cared for her. I mean, I really did.

She gave me my first grand-wean. I mean...

I'm never gonnae forget that.

She was like a daughter to me.

Now, no...

Now...she's crossed too many lines.

I mean, Amber?

I've already lost five years of her life. I'm not losing any more.

And me and Alex, we've just found each other.

We've got a lot of time to make up for. They're my blood.

They're my family!

And I will protect them.

I know. They're...

They're your kids.

She's forcing my hand here!

We both know...

you don't want to go there.

There's no way back from this.

Not for any of us.

I could lose my kids, I could lose Callum. I could lose everything.

I'm sorry, Jimmy.

I'm sorry.

I know.

Please, just let me have...

..one last crack at her, eh?

For all our sakes...

..she'd better crack.

Comfortable?

DOOR LOCKS

The thing I'm wondering is...

..did Lenny put you up to this?

HE EXHALES

Why would you go down for him?

He's only your dad in name, isn't he?

Don't be like your sister.

Course, even if he didn't tell you to do it...

..you could say he did.

It's him I want, not you.

Come on, Alex, do yourself a favour.

Tell me what I want to hear.

You only share the same DNA.

You've got no real bond with him.

OK.

I do have something to say.

No comment.

Daddy taught me that.

HE KNOCKS ON DOOR

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

I know you can hear me!

You want something?

I want my call.

You going to start talking to me?

I'm entitled to it.

I'll think about it.

I'm allowed a call!

It's a peace offering.

So, erm...what are you going to do?

Let's say I do it.

Change my statement.

Alex and Amber get let off the hook.

Then what?

What's going to happen to me then?

He'll let you live.

But he'll not let me be happy, Jimmy.

Lenny controlling my every move? That's no life.

So what? I mean, if... If his kids go down...

Well, you think it's bad now?

It'll be 1,000 times worse.

Why can't you be on my side? Just for once?

How can you even say that?

I mean, you've brought all this to our door.

Your choices - going with Alex,

getting involved with the Kennedys when I told you not to...

..bringing Lenny back to do away Martina and then grass him up.

I've risked my life...

and my family have been threatened.

Aye, well, I'm sorry I let you down.

Did he send you? Lenny?

Did he send you here?

Get out.

Right, that's it. End of the road.

That's the last time I try and help you out.

You're not helping me, you're helping him!

-No!

-After all this time,

ever since he made me try to kill myself.

No. You damned yourself, Kelly. Nobody else.

What do you mean? Made you try to kill yourself?

After he found out I grassed...

..Lenny made me write my own suicide note.

And the only thing that stopped me was Callum and Jimmy coming home.

But see ever since then, Mum, I've been Lenny's virtual prisoner.

He wants Callum, he takes him.

And you knew this?

Get out!

-I was just...

-Go, before I call security!

Fine!

HE SIGHS

Seriously, Kelly. Changing that statement...

that's the only hope the both of you have got.

DOOR OPENS

Lenny.

I thought you were leaving.

Have you had a change of heart?

Have you spoken to Alex?

They won't let me.

They're keeping them in.

Right.

You know, Kelly-Marie's made a statement.

As her doctor, do you think she makes a reliable witness?

I can't talk about my patients.

No, of course you can't, of course you can't.

But you know the facts. I mean, everybody does.

Kel's got a troubled past - drugs, depression,

and she's got a vendetta against Alex.

What are you saying?

I was just thinking if there was a more...credible witness.

-Lenny...

-Somebody that had a clearer version of the events -

how Gabriel inflamed the situation,

how Alex was just defending himself.

He didn't throw the last punch.

Lie, you mean.

I'm trying to protect my son and my daughter, here.

I thought you cared for him.

So if I do this, then that proves that I care about him?

-Is that what you're saying?

-That's about the gist of it.

I'd be risking my career, everything.

We do what we need to do to protect the people we love.

Of course, that all depends... on whether you do love him.

(Hey.)

(Hey.)

Gabriel... Oh, Gabriel!

Hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Sorry.

How are you feeling?

Like I downed 50 shots of tequila last night.

What happened?

You had a fight with Alex.

He won.

Lucky punch.

It's not funny. Oh, look at you.

I should get decked more often, eh?

Don't you say that. I thought I'd lost you.

-But do you know, it made me realise something.

-What?

I don't want to spend a single second away from you, Gabriel.

Will you marry me?

What?

I'm sorry. I've hurt you in the past,

-and I shouldn't be asking...

-Yes.

Yes?

Yes.

Scarlett, you... You don't understand.

Understand what?

How you stood by and watched that wee lassie get bullied by that thug?

-All this time?

-I've stuck my neck out for that lassie,

time and time again.

What are you wanting, a medal?

That's your job, to stick your neck out for her.

You should want to walk through fire for your weans.

Och... I've done everything I could.

See, I don't think you did, Jimmy.

I knew what I was getting into with you.

Sorry?

Your history. With Lenny.

But the only reason I could see past all of that

was because, deep down, I thought you had a good heart

and that you'd do anything - anything - to protect my weans.

You've let Kelly-Marie down.

-And you've let me down.

-That's not fair.

I don't think I can trust you any more.

Please, Scarlett.

I don't think I can even look at you right now, Jimmy.

-So what are you saying?

-I'm saying...

I'm saying...

..I think you need to leave, Jimmy.

Please, Scarlett. Please, don't do this.

I said leave!

What's going on?

-Hey, you.

-Hi.

I thought you were at the hospital shop, picking up wedding magazines.

As if.

They didn't have any.

Busted.

DI Donald's on his way.

So, do you think you're ready to, you know, give him a statement?

-No danger.

-Why not?

Cos I don't trust them, Kel.

Gabriel, you almost died.

Alex nearly killed you.

It was a fight.

I hit Lenny. Alex hit me back.

Just tell the polis I'm no' talking.

But they need you, to back up my statement.

What statement?

Aw, Kel, plea.... Why would you do that?

Why would I no'?

Do you not think you're in enough bother with Lenny as it is?

They're going to protect us.

They'll get us far away from here, Gabriel, we'll be safe.

Kelly, I love you to bits, but you're so gullible sometimes.

What do you mean?

The polis. They'll tell you anything to get what they want,

-and then they just wash their hands of you.

-No.

-Trust me.

-You've been watching too many police shows.

Mandy Kennedy.

What about her?

Yous were together, weren't you?

Before she died?

Before she was killed, you mean. By the police.

What?

She went to them because of me. So this...

This is feels like history repeating itself.

What do you mean, because of you?

Her husband, Billy Kennedy.

Mandy betrayed him so that we could be together,

and I stupidly phoned the polis to try and help her,

but they were so determined to nail Billy they forgot all about Mandy,

and she got caught in the crossfire.

And I lost her.

You know, I trusted them, the police, and they failed her.

And I cannae let it happen again.

I cannae lose you, Kel.

Not now, after finally getting you back.

So we need to do this on our own, OK?

We need to find another way, cos I'm not talking to them.

No chance. I'm not going to lose you like I lost her.

KNOCK ON DOOR, IT OPENS

Kelly-Marie. Gabriel.

You feeling well enough for a chat?

This needs sorted, right?

-Where are you going?

-Where do you think?

To sort out Lenny Murdoch!

And, er, what exactly are you going to do?

-I don't know.

-Sounds like a plan.

Don't start on him, Jimmy!

Doing something is better than doing hee-haw,

which is all you've done so far.

This could all have been sorted out if you'd been a real man.

What could I do?

You could've helped her, instead of letting her suffer like that!

You walk about with your eyes shut.

And just as long as your kids have got a got a smile on their face,

you think there's nothing wrong.

What are you talking about?

You bury your head in the sand.

Kelly-Marie, Patrick.

Get out of here!

I want you to get out!

No. I'm not leaving. This is my house.

Aye. You are.

And you're leaving now, Jimmy.

Good luck. You'll need it.

-PHONE RINGS

-Hello?

'Annie. Annie it's me.'

Alex. Have they released you?

Not tonight. I think they're going to charge me.

-'It might be murder.'

-Gabriel pulled though.

-Sorry, I'm just...

-'Erm, your dad...'

he wants me to talk to them, to the police.

That's not what I want.

I don't want you getting in trouble. Don't you do that.

'I want you to know that I love you.'

I just wanted to say that.

'And I'm sorry.'

I'm so sorry.

I need to go.

You sure you can't change his mind?

No, I'm sorry, but I can't convince him.

We've still got you. It's not the strongest case, given your...

previous relationship with Alex, but we'll see how we go.

SHE SNORTS What is it?

See all this? Is it just for Lenny?

I'm sorry?

Why are you so desperate to nail Alex and Amber?

Is it just because of their dad?

We will not make the same mistakes that we did with Billy Kennedy.

I promise.

Morning, campers.

I'm still waiting on my call.

Oh, you can make your call.

But first, a little bit of business.

Alex Murdoch, you're hereby charged with the attempted murder

of Gabriel Brodie on 2nd of August, 2016.

Amber Murdoch...

-No.

-..you are hereby charged...

-No, no, no, no...

..with the attempted murder of Gabriel Brodie on 2nd August, 2016.

DOORBELL RINGS

Morning.

Yeah, yeah. Think so.

Oh, wow, you look rough.

Dark night of the soul, was it?

Ouch. You'll be needing some painkillers.

I'm sure the doctor can sort you out.

Yeah, well, right now you're the only thing giving me a headache.

And I haven't even started yet.

I'm afraid I'm here to tell you

your precious children have now been charged.

-I have to go to work.

-We need to have a chat, Doctor.

I've got morning surgery. Sorry, I really have to go.

That's fine. It's Lenny I'm having breakfast with.

Maybe we can do brunch.

You came all the way down here to tell me that?

You know, that's a waste of resources.

I'm going to talk to my MSP.

Well...

See, I had a chat last night with your former daughter-in-law.

Is that right?

The lassie's no' right in the head - ever since she lost that wean.

I'm telling you, she would do anything to hurt my family.

They mean a lot to you, don't they, family?

Be a shame to lose them.

HE SIGHS

HE SIGHS

Oh.

HE SIGHS

Dr Jandhu.

You're a difficult woman to pin down.

Did your receptionist give you my messages?

Yes, yes, she did. I'm sorry, I've been busy.

I was just coming to see you.

Oh, good.

You were the first medic to treat Gabriel Brodie, is that right?

That's right.

And when you got there, was Mr Brodie already on the ground?

No.

So you arrived before Gabriel got hurt?

What did you see exactly?

A fight.

A fight?

Between Gabriel and Alex?

OK. I'm going to need to get you to make a full witness statement.

Would you be free to do that now? I can give you a lift.

Yeah, of course.

You seem nervous, Doctor.

Would you like some water?

No.

So, where were you coming from?

My surgery.

I turned the corner and saw Gabriel Brodie

swing at Lenny Murdoch.

Alex Murdoch tried to break it up and Gabriel slipped.

It was an accident.

And it's taken you until now to come forward?

I was with Gabriel last night at the hospital

and then I've been with patients all day.

It's the first chance I've had to speak to you properly.

He's quite the playboy, Alex.

You're seeing him, that's right?

What difference does that make?

You have to see it from my point of view.

His current girlfriend happens to pop up as a key witness -

it's...convenient.

Maybe as inconvenient as his ex-wife accusing him in the first place?

What is it, five years, to become a doctor?

-Seven.

-Seven?

Wow. Incredible.

All that hard work.

All that time to get to where you are now,

owning your own general practice.

Are you really going to risk it all to protect that mob?

Interview suspended at 0930 hours.

Do you love what you do, Doctor?

Of course I do.

Then I'm going to ask you to confirm, one more time, just for me.

Gabriel Brodie.

He fell and he hit his head.

There's no more to it.

I think you're lying.

In fact, I know you're lying.

You treated him, Gabriel.

You probably saved his life.

You had his blood on your hands.

And now you're prepared to do this to save Alex's skin?

What sort of life are you going to have with him, with Alex?

My personal life is not relevant here.

Oh, trust me, when you get dragged into the dock, it'll be relevant.

Last chance.

He slipped.

And you're prepared to make an official statement, saying that...

under oath?

Yes.

Maybe third time lucky, eh, Inspector?

We've still got a witness that can put you there.

So how come you're letting us go?

Investigation's pending.

Aye, OK.

Can we just go home?

The lengths some people will go to, eh?

How you doing?

Watch yourself, Amber.

DOOR OPENS

We had to let them go.

Another witness came forward.

And you're back to try and change my mind?

I'm sorry, it's all blank.

Gabriel...

I'd love to help you, Inspector, I really would, but...

I just cannae remember anything.

If anything comes back to you...

It won't.

Sorry for wasting your time.

So that's it? My statement counts for nothing?

It's not enough. You need to persuade Gabriel to talk.

Right, so what now? They go back to Lenny

and we're left sitting ducks?

You get him to talk.

It's the only way.

Don't try and talk me round, Kel.

You were right.

So let's go.

Right now.

He'll find us.

Well, what, then?

I know what I need to do.

Wait, Kel, you're scaring me here.

Just trust me.

It's the only way, Ma.

You cannae.

If I don't, I'm dead, Gabriel's dead,

and both kids grow up orphans.

There's got to be another way, but?

There is no other way, Ma. There's not.

-Ma?

-I'm here.

Is Cal there?

Bubba's taken him out for some ice cream.

So you need to hold on to him.

Don't let anyone take him until we've left, OK?

Right, so, listen carefully.

I'm listening.

I need to meet Lenny.

So can you get Bob and Patrick to meet me at The Tall Ship

this evening? Just in case.

And don't tell Jimmy.

I can't trust him.

Jimmy's away, darling.

Good. That's good. And gonnae bring my gran?

I want to say goodbye to her.

What am I gonnae to tell her?

Don't worry her. Just tell her I'm going away on a long trip, OK?

OK.

Then Gabriel will discharge himself and then we'll go.

I don't think I can dae this, Kelly!

Please, Ma, for me?

Just do it.

-PHONE CUTS OUT

-Kelly!

Kelly!

KNOCK ON DOOR

You wanted me?

Shut the door, eh?

-Rough night?

-Aye.

Scarlett kicked me oot. I crashed oot in the car.

How's Brodie?

The last I heard he was on the mend, so...

Well, it means Alex won't be on a murder charge, eh?

Alex is out. So is Amber.

Perfect then.

No, it's no' perfect, Jimmy.

It's not perfect at all.

Brodie's a cockroach.

He's gonnae try and leave town with my grandson.

At some point, he's gonnae do that.

-He wouldn't be that daft.

-Come on.

It's him who's caused you all this grief, isn't it?

Hmm? If he'd have just listened to you,

heeded your warning, disappeared,

you'd be sitting at home the now, feet up, cup of tea.

Instead, you're out your own hoose.

He's got to go.

And he's got to go now.

Go to the hospital.

Take him a long drive.

Get it done.

-Could you not get somebody else to dae it?

-No.

Nobody I can trust, Jimmy. No-one.

We've been friends a long time now.

A lifetime.

Sometimes it felt like you were my only friend.

And you're with me, no matter what.

Aye, I am, but...

What? You lost your bottle?

-Come on.

-It's just been such a long time since I...

You're not gonnae let me down, are you, Jimmy?

-Lenny...

-Get it done.

Get it done now.

What about Kelly-Marie?

I was thinking maybe you should stay away awhile.

Just till the heat dies down.

Check yourself into a B&B or something.

Better than sleeping in the car.

Call me when it's done.

PHONE RINGS

Kelly-Marie?

What do you want?

Tall Ship.

Be there.

PHONE CUTS OUT

Thank you.

Cheers, Lenny.

-Annie!

-Drink?

Where are you going?

Home. Away from you.

You're running back to AJ?

I'm choosing to go back.

Not that I need to explain myself to you.

Look, I know that was hard.

Hard?

It's everything I have ever worked for.

I told you not to!

I love you. What was I supposed to do?

This is not me. This life, it's not me!

Annie, please.

You got what you wanted.

It was the right thing to do.

Was it. Really? For who?

Gabriel Brodie or for you?

Hey.

She'll be back.

Just give her time.

DOOR SHUTS

DOOR OPENS

Kelly?

Scarlett.

What do you want?

I just came for some stuff.

Right.

Well, get your stuff and leave.

Just go, Jimmy!

I'm...

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

But I've got to dae this.

It's awfully sudden, hen.

Aye, but it's no' forever, Gran. Just a wee extended holiday

so I can be with Gabriel till he gets better.

As long as you're happy, darling. That's all I want for you.

Aye, and as soon as this wee one comes along,

you'll be first on the train, won't you?

You're joking!

Pensioners get a free bus pass!

And as you said, it's only Aberdeen.

Come here.

I'll miss you.

I've got something in my eye. I'll be back in a minute.

Kel?

So what are we doing, The Godfather or something?

You going to nip into the toilet, come back with a gun, eh? Boom!

You've won.

I'm done.

I've got nothing left, Lenny.

-Cannae fight you any more.

-Congratulations.

Why am I standing here?

You could've done all this over the phone.

I want you to leave Gabriel alone.

Then I want you to let us go.

To Aberdeen?

No. Far away.

Somewhere you cannae find us.

OK, I'll play along.

Why exactly would I do that?

Because you'll get Callum...

..for good.

It's, eh, time to go, Gabriel.

Eh?

I'm no' going anywhere with you.

Now.

Is this a joke?

What are you talking aboot, Kel? You cannae give him Callum!

It's the only way.

Isn't it, Lenny?

It's the only way you'll let me and Gabriel live.

So here's what's going to happen.

A taxi's gonnae arrive and take me to Gabriel,

and then we're going to go.

And once we're safely away, my ma will give you...

My mum will give you Callum.

All I ask is that you send me pictures of him growing up...

..and that my wee boy...

will get birthday and Christmas cards from his mum.

Just make sure he knows I always love him.

Seems fair.

Only I cannae really trust a word

that comes out of your mouth, Kelly, can I?

I've just promised you.

You've promised me many things.

Your word just doesn't seem to count for anything.

Lenny, I mean it. I swear to God.

See, there was only one way that Callum was going to stay here.

What have you done?

I warned you. Did I no' warn you?

What's he talking aboot?

You want to tell him or will I?

Not Gabriel. No, you haven't.

All this blood, Brodie...

It's in your hands, Kel.

Not Gabriel.

No, no.

Kelly-Marie. Right, your taxi's ootside.

-I don't need it any more.

-Aye, you dae. Boys, get ootside!

-Is she going noo?

-Aye, she's going noo.

Come on.

Now, you listen to me.

Jimmy will keep you safe, trust me.

You go and you don't look back,

and you'll after your wee family.

-You'll have your boys with you, Callum and Gabriel.

-What?

They're all you need.

They're your family now.

I'll be here whenever you need me.

And you build a new life,

a better life, and you be happy.

Because you deserve it, and you deserve it more than anybody.

I'm so proud of you.

MUSIC: Wisely And Slow by The Staves

Away you go!

Hey, Fiancee.

I thought I'd lost you - again.

See? You cannae get rid of me that easily.

Jimmy, are you sure about this? I'm scared for you.

I want to do it. It's the right thing.

Thank you, Dad.

See you, Kel.

I love you, Dad.

Come home soon.

I love you, my wee angel.

You're a good man, Jimmy Mullen.

I love you.

I had nae choice, Lenny. You've got to understand that.

We go back a long way, Jimmy.

Like I said, you were my only good friend.

You said you would do anything for your kids.

Kelly-Marie, she's my kid. What else could I do?

You know what I have to do now, don't you?

I do, aye.

-Ew, yuck!

-Shush, you.

-Right, spill.

-I just got offered a place at Leeds.

Do you really think I've got what it takes?

-9,000 a year.

-That really is a lot of money.

It's too much.

I don't think I can manage the shop today.

That's absolutely fine, I can manage.

-Look, I don't know where he is.

-Find out, before I lose my patience.

We need to get oot of here - right noo!

I thought she might need a wee bit of spending money.

I heard you were going on holiday.

There's something up with Bob.

Talking about something he had to do, like he'd never see me again.

This ends noo!
