24/07/2012 River City

-Have you got a minute?

-Well, take a wild guess.

Doesn't matter, I'll speak to you later.

-One large whisky.

-Put that back.

-You ignorant...

-Raymond!

Get out, NOW!

-I told you not to tell anybody.

-They're family, not just anybody.

You are unbelievable.

What more do you need? He loves you.

I want to have a baby and a family.

I want a husband who'll talk to me about our marriage before he goes and talks to his maw.

MUSIC: "Living for the City" by Stevie Wonder

Raymond, d'you know where Stuart's wee aeroplane bib is?

Yes!

What?

We've been nominated for Scottish Community Pub of the Year!

Fantastic! Well done. Ooh, you're a nominee!

Yes. Firstly, I'd like to thank my son, Stuart, without whose help

and support I would not be standing here today...

What about me?

I don't think Stuart would want to share the credit.

Oh, I think he'd be cool with that.

Right, the brewery are sending round a photographer.

So, I'm going to get downstairs gleaming.

Make sure you don't leave those scabby bar towels out on the counter.

Oh, you think? I was gonna feature them(!)

Oh, and if there's going to be an award ceremony,

Stuart'll need a new outfit, and so will I.

Oh, will you?

That's great stuff, Stevie, but no, I don't just want a hand

with the cleaning, I want you in the photos as well.

Yes, with Zinnie, she's on tonight.

I think you'll cope.

I need more young people in the photo, you know,

for a bit of age balance.

Hey, I'll have you know, I've still got all my own teeth!

HE CHUCKLES

OK, pal, that's great, I'll see you. OK, see you.

BROKEN GLASS CRUNCHES

In the name of...

I'll kill him!

How's it going, Raymond?

-Raymond...?

-You dirty, lowlife scumbag!

Was it something I said?

Replace my stock and pay for the damage!

-What are you talking about?

-Just get it done!

-What is it? Your pal lost his marbles here?

-What's happened?

The Tall Ship's been broken into,

all the stock's been taken from the gantry, the place has been trashed.

You can check the details wi' him.

-You're way out of line.

-I'm gonnae get the police involved.

Yeah? I don't have a problem with that.

-I'm gonnae phone them right now!

-Go on. Be my guest.

Raymond! Hang on!

Don't you try and tell me that he didn't do it!

But why would he?

He didn't like how I spoke to him the other night and that's enough for a psycho like him!

-I cannae see it.

-You cannae...?

You forgotten he took pub off me a few years back?

Things change, Raymond. Lenny's changed.

You're deluding yourself, pal!

If he's changed, it's only for the worse.

Can I give you a hand to clear up?

No, Stevie's gonnae help me. You better get back to your boss.

Raymond!

Did you have to decide to pick a fight with Lenny Murdoch again?

I did not pick a fight with Lenny Murdoch.

Have you spoke to him?

Just had it out with him, just now. Denies it, of course.

Right, that's it, call the cops.

-Lenny was very keen I did just that.

-So?

So it means we won't be able to trace it back to him. So we'd be wasting our time.

Well, you have to make him aware you're not just going to take this.

And we need a police report for the insurance claim.

What's wrong?

Remember we had that faulty alarm?

You never got it fixed?

No.

So the insurance won't cover us.

I'll phone the brewery, cancel the photo call.

Sometimes I wonder if you've still got the brains you were born with, Raymond!

Then I'll call the suppliers and see if we can get an advance on some more stock.

Yeah, cos you've really got them over a barrel(!)

D'you want me to start the tidy up?

Yeah, cheers, pal.

Listen, I didn't want to say anything in front of Eileen,

but I'm not taking this lying down.

Raymond, you'll need to be careful.

I will be.

-You're finished, son!

-No way!

Suck on that! Die! Die!

-Yes!

-Gutted!

What are you playing at?

-New RPG!

-I mean, why are you still here? You're gonna be late for football camp.

Let's go, one more.

-No point. I am the chosen one.

-Come on!

-Am I invisible here?

-Mum, it's not like school, you don't need to be on time.

-Oh, really? I don't think so.

-Time for one more.

-Yeah!

-No!

-But we've got time.

-Go get ready.

Actually, I'm still nursing an injury.

You will be if you don't get a move on.

And I forgot to get my strip washed.

Well, I didn't. I put a clean one in your kit bag last night.

Go and get your kit.

Hayley?

Morning.

What's the...? Oh, God! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!

I'm supposed to have opened up this morning.

Yep.

I'll be there in two minutes.

Don't worry, nobody's in till half ten anyway. Stick the kettle on.

OK.

So how you feeling?

Did I make a pure tube of myself last night?

No, you didn't...

but I was left in no doubt you're gonna miss me.

-Was I greetin'?

-Little bit.

Drama queen!

So... I got a call from my prospective buyer this morning.

And?

He's agreed the price.

That's brilliant!

Mmm...

What is it?

I don't like him.

So? Like his money instead.

I know it sounds stupid,

but it's important for me to like who's taking over Number Eighteen.

But... I was thinking.

What about you?

What about me?

Would you consider taking it over?

Oh, hen, I'm touched you should ask, really I am.

But where am I going to get that kind of money?

It's never gonna happen.

Even at a special Robbie discount?

How much?

What am I saying? I won't waste your time.

Take his money and run.

OK. I'll go open up the shop.

You get some breakfast and I'll see you shortly.

Thanks.

-And get some mints.

-I will.

Goal! He does it again! He's the new Messi!

Hey! Why aren't you two away?

We've decided we're not going.

-It's crap.

-What do you mean? I paid for three weeks of that camp.

It's full of little kids.

It's just embarrassing, Mum.

Can't you help the coach then?

He's a diddy.

"Track back! Shape! Shape!"

Well, I'm telling you, I'm not pouring my money down the drain. You're going to that camp!

No way!

Conor, this isn't up for debate!

Too right, cos we're not doing it.

Hey! Don't you talk to your mother like that.

She's not my mother.

Right, that's it! Move it!

Oh, Uncle Gabe!

Now!

And I'll be checking that you both turned up.

-Thank you.

-No sweat.

That's us at Loch Lomond on a day trip.

That's us at the opening of Number Eighteen.

That's when we went to George Square for New Year.

Aww, that's when...

I get the picture.

I'm going through a trauma here and you don't care!

We're all gonnae miss Hayley.

Every photograph is a memory, a shared moment of precious time.

Not just a bunch of snap-happy pished folk?

I cannae bear your attitude.

I'm going to make copies of these, especially for Hayley.

I want her to take the people of Shieldinch away with her when she goes.

-So, I'm in them too?

-Everybody is!

-But mainly Robbie.

It's me she'll miss the most.

What's happening with the salon, by the way? Any decision yet?

She's got an interested buyer, but she doesn't like the guy,

she asked me to buy her out.

Fantastic!

No, not fantastic. Rotten timing.

I finally get the chance to realise my dream but I can't do it.

-Why?

-That little thing called money, Deek?

How much is she asking?

She only wants paid for stock and fittings

and a wee bit extra as goodwill.

So how much?

Eight grand. She was asking twelve.

Thanks. Robbie, that's a steal.

Well, she's got her rich man now.

Can you not get a bank loan?

You kidding?

Sorry, forgot it was your overdraft that cost Fred Goodwin his job.

Ha, ha.

Seriously though. Be a real shame to miss the opportunity.

Story of my life.

What can I do you for now? You come to apologise?

I'm going to ask you outright.

Did you break into my pub?

Or instruct others to break in?

Oh, Henderson QC!

You know, your cheek is truly remarkable.

Look, I'm not going to pursue it with the police.

We can call a truce.

But I need to know, was it you?

A truce? You ever heard the likes of this?

I told you, I know nothing about it.

Is this your way of getting back at me?

-For what?

-For the way I spoke to you the other night.

See if it is, I can put all that aside, as a misunderstanding.

You know, this is starting to sound like a broken record.

Why don't you call those cops you keep talking about,

tell them to pursue the guilty parties with the full force of the law. Get me?

And if we called this truce,

I would ask you to return the bottles from the gantry.

How can I return what I don't have?

Why don't you just call your suppliers, get some more in? Am I being too sensible here?

You can't just order replacements for a rare malt

and liqueur collection that you've built up over the years.

It would cost a fortune!

Insurance! Get it on your insurance, man!

Oh. No insurance? Ah, well.

Tell you what, I'll even lend you the money.

Low interest rates.

Why are you doing this to me? Why are you crucifying me?

Have you not caused enough misery in Shieldinch?

Well, I'll tell you this, Lenny Murdoch, I, for one, will not...

TAPE RECORDER BABBLES

'Why are you doing this to me? Why are you crucifying me?

'Have you not caused enough misery in Shieldinch?'

Can you believe that?

C'mon, Raymond, let's go.

You're scum, Murdoch! Scum!

I don't buy that it was just random.

I'm just saying it could've been. Any wee ned could have done it.

Haw! I've got an alibi.

-Good job, Stevie. Here, you still got that van?

-Aye.

Gonnae nip up to the cash and carry for me,

get a couple of crates of mixers,

some crisps, nuts, that sort of thing?

-Just something to be going on with while I work out what's what.

-No bother. How'd it go with...?

Not good.

Listen, Lenny Murdoch's had it in for me for years.

He's just looking for an excuse.

Look, I'm not defending him here,

but I don't think that's the kind of thing he does.

You don't think? Gabriel, get real!

You're acting like that scumbag's a human being!

All right. Keep the heid.

Right, what can I do to help?

That's exactly what I was about to say.

I heard about your bother.

Any idea who?

Lenny Murdoch. I can't prove it, but I know it was him.

I wouldnae put it past him.

How are you gonnae get your gantry restocked?

That's the thing - stupid appearance here blew it with the insurers,

so I'm gonnae have to get a hold of my suppliers,

try and get a line of credit.

That's what I was saying when I came in.

Maybe I can help you out.

I've got a mate in the wholesale trade.

He could have your bar stocked in no time.

Thing is, I need to be open again by tonight, or I'm in real shtook.

I can make this happen right now, eh? If you want.

Can your suppliers match that?

I dunno, I've been dealing with these guys for years...

Fair enough.

But if you work out what you need, how much they're gonna charge,

I'll make sure my guy undercuts it by 30%.

No cash needed up front.

You just pay me back when you're back on your feet, sorted.

-Can I think about it?

-Of course.

The offer's there if you need it

and if you don't take us up on it, no hard feelings.

Cheers. It's just my head's mince with all this...

Hey, look, I understand. You just take your time.

I like Raymond, that's why I'm making him an offer.

-Sure.

-And it's also good to noise up Lenny.

If it was him.

Who else?

Look, I know what you're saying, Sean,

but he's telling me he wasn't involved.

Well, he would do, I mean, wouldn't he?

True.

-I've got things to do. See you later.

-See you.

Gabriel. Have a word with Raymond.

Convince him that this is a good deal, right?

Can't be that bad, can it?

Sorry, I was dreaming.

Take it you heard what happened this morning?

I've just been talking to Raymond about it.

Do you think it was Lenny?

Look, Eileen, I don't really want to...

Oh, c'mon, Gabriel, you must have an opinion.

I told Raymond I didn't think it was something that Lenny would do.

Are you serious? This is Lenny Murdoch we're talking about.

Look, if you don't like my opinion, then don't ask for it, all right?

I was just saying...

Sorry, I think I better go.

Yeah, I think you better.

Robbie, I've got a proposal.

Sorry, I'm already spoken for.

'I don't want to talk about it over the phone. Let's meet ASAP.'

-Oh, man of mystery!

-'Can you come round to mine?'

Sure, I've got a break coming up.

OK, bye.

So, what's the big proposal?

I've worked it all out.

-Worked what out?

-A plan.

-What plan?

A plan to finance the purchase of Number Eighteen!

You'll be the creative maestro, I'll be the money man.

But with a clause in our contract to allow you to buy in when you can afford it, basically.

-What d'you think?

-I don't know...

Two hours ago, this was your life's dream!

It is, but I'm scared.

It'll be a partnership, I'll be there to help you.

No, what I mean is I'm scared I'll waste your money.

Blowing your own money's one thing...

Robbie, I can do this.

I've even squared it with the bank manager.

I can access the money, you've got the talent. Can't fail.

Oh, my God, it is exciting though.

So... deal?

Deal! I think... I don't know.

OK, deal.

OK! Now, we just need to speak to Hayley.

Can I do that on my own? Do you mind?

No, that's fine. I need speak to my lawyer. Get a simple contract drawn up.

I can't believe this is happening!

Hey, Gabriel.

Hi.

I wanted to say thank you for helping me sort out the boys this morning.

-Least I could do.

-I'm genuinely grateful.

It was nothin'. Sorry, I need to get back.

Oh, right. Could I...

Could I maybe see you later then, after work?

What about?

I need to speak to you, that's all.

OK.

I'll call you when I'm done.

Sure.

Raymond! You in there?

Yeah, come on in.

Looking good.

Listen, have you thought any more about Sean's offer?

I was gonnae ask you, is he straight up, this guy?

As far as I know, Raymond.

It's hardly a ringing endorsement.

I mean, I don't know who his suppliers are,

I'm presuming they're all kosher.

Lenny's no' a pal of his and that's one thing in his favour.

Sorry, I should lay off. You and Lenny being partners...

Of a sort. Business is business.

So you reckon I should take Sean's offer?

It's up to you, Raymond. I mean, I really couldn't...

I know. I know.

Truth is, I don't really have a ready alternative.

Checked my supplier's price. It'd be a killer right now,

especially with my insurance being up the spout.

And Sean's offer of a discount with no money up front...

I guess it's a no-brainer in your situation, isn't it?

Pretty much, don't you think?

Och, aye, man, go for it.

I'm sure you'll be fine.

-How do I reach him then?

-Don't worry about it.

I'll get hold of him. Have you any idea what you need?

Actually, I've made a list.

Right, OK.

I'll get back to you.

Cheers.

Listen, Raymond wants that delivery.

Of course, I've got a list, aye.

Why can't you?

Why can't you handle it?

Look, don't start, all right?

Just text me the guy's number and I'll deal with it, all right?

Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!

-What you doing here?

-Nice to see you too.

What's up?

It's Maria - she's got herself into a bit of bother.

With who?

Sean. You know he's just knocked hell out her?

Listen, come on. You better come inside.

He wanted her to go this client's flat, but...

What? She wouldn't?

I told her about this guy. He's pervy, likes to hurt girls.

But I was just trying to give her an idea of what to expect.

She doesn't get it, does she?

She's new. Still thinks she's got a choice.

Maybe we could get Sean to get rid of this client

-if he's that much of a problem.

-Waste of time.

Why?

He's some sort of big shot lawyer,

and I know he's dug Sean out of a few holes in the past.

OK, look, I'll take you back.

I'm headed elsewhere.

Not this lawyer's?

Sean's insisted.

Good afternoon, sir. Can I help you?

Yes, I heard this place was up for sale and I'd like to buy it.

I'll give you a tenner for it.

Deek, you dark horse, come here!

So, you're pleased?

Pleased? I'm thrilled! It's fantastic!

Doesn't know what he's letting himself in for, poor boy.

Oh, I think he's got a pretty fair idea.

Too right.

Why don't we meet for some champagne after closing, we can seal the deal?

Perfect.

See you in the Ship.

See you later.

Right, mister boss man, what are you still doing here?

-Eh?

-Get yourself home, get your gladrags on

and when I'm finished here, it's party time!

You're on!

You are looking at a man of importance,

-a man of status.

-I am?

Pleased to meet you.

I'm the new owner of the salon!

-What?

-I didn't mention it to you before,

because I thought it just wasn't going to happen.

And then I told Deek this morning that Hayley had offered me a buyout

and the next thing I know Deek's agreed to put up the cash

and we're gonnae be business partners. Isn't it amazing?

What is it?

You didn't think to ask me?

I thought you'd be OK with it.

No, I mean why didn't you come to me for the money? Why did you go to Deek before me?

I never asked Deek, he offered.

He offered because he knew about it.

Listen, you have done so much for me already that, honestly,

it never even occurred to me to ask you for more.

Will, I didn't mean to hurt you, I didn't.

Robbie, we're not sharing a flat, we're sharing a life.

I know! That's exactly how I feel. Honest!

Then, please, let me be the one to help you.

How do you mean?

C'mere.

What's Deek's investment?

-Eight grand.

-Have you signed anything?

-No.

-I'll put up the money.

How can you afford that?

I've got a nest egg, a family inheritance.

It's just sitting there, waiting to be used.

You'd do that for me?

I'd do anything for you, silly.

How will I tell Deek?

Listen, I'd like to apologise for earlier.

I think you should.

I was way out of order.

Yes, you were.

I'm genuinely sorry, OK?

OK. Accepted.

I take it you got your advance then?

Yeah, they were really good about it.

Said I could pay up the balance over the next few months.

That should tide us over.

Till Lenny's next move.

No, no. I think he's got the message, all right.

He'll be quaking in his boots(!)

You could give us a hand if you like?

Is that Stuart I hear?

Woah! We're back in business, boys.

Thanks to Gabriel and his contacts.

Brilliant.

What's going on?

Gonnae give Stevie a hand with all this, and he'll fill you in?

-He's working here again?

-Zinnie...

There's a lot more to unload off the van, c'mon.

Don't you get uppity with me!

Just like old times then, eh? C'mon.

You forgot your lunch.

Raymond send reinforcements, did he?

-What's he on about?

-Nothin'.

No, it's no'. What did he mean?

-The Ship got turned over last night.

-What? And you didn't tell me?

-I'm telling you now.

-So was there much taken?

Well, I think the gantry got ransacked.

-Aw, no!

-And Raymond came round and, well, he's blaming Lenny.

That's what Lenny's on about. Cheeky swine. Probably him that done it.

I don't think so. I think Raymond's getting the wrong end of the stick.

Oh aye, cos Lenny's such a good guy, isn't he(?)

Don't start, Scarlett.

He was upset, I think he's just jumping to conclusions.

Oh aye, Lenny wouldnae get involved in something like this, would he(?)

-Scarlett...

-Raymond's your pal.

-I know.

-So, you should stick by him.

-I am. I will.

It's just, I think it's too easy to blame Lenny right away.

And did you tell Raymond this?

Some pal you are.

That's uncalled for.

-How did he take it?

-He wasn't very pleased.

You better go round and apologise then.

-For what?

-For taking Lenny's side.

-No, I didnae!

-Aye, you did!

I don't care if Lenny's not involved in this, your pal's your priority, Jimmy.

-He was being unreasonable.

-So what if he was?

I'm no' asking you, I'm telling you to get round there and you sort it out with Raymond.

-D'you hear me?

-Aye!

I don't normally in working hours, but the hell with it.

You deserve it.

-Cheers, big man!

-Down the hatch.

-Cheers.

I saw the delivery van.

I see you got it sorted. That's great.

Yeah, Lenny Murdoch doesn't always get his own way.

I'm just glad you got it sorted.

Even if you're still in denial?

I've not changed my mind, if that's what you mean.

He's got you brainwashed.

Look Raymond, can we not just agree to put this behind us, eh?

So, you carry on defending Lenny, what do I do?

Stand back and admire your loyalty?

Well, you're not married to Scarlett.

Oh!

She's hacked off you've sided with him, isn't she?

What, have you spoken to her?

-Don't need to, mate. I know her.

-OK, that's maybe a part of it but...

But nothing!

Look, I'm trying to make amends here.

Too late!

Why don't you run back to your big boss man and tell him

Raymond Henderson's no pushover?

-I'm not his messenger laddie, right?

-No?

You're telling me he didn't send you down here to see what was what?

How can you say that to me? We're mates.

You've a funny way of showing it, MATE!

I've never met such a thrawn, stubborn, pig-headed...

Oh! That's not very friendly now, is it?

Oh, by the way, Jim?

You're barred.

Thanks, Raymond.

Any time.

What?

Nothing, nothing.

Same again?

Why not?

Hiya, nearly finished.

Hayley, I've got something to tell you...

You're pulling out?

No! Not at all!

It's just that I've got a new backer.

Who?

Will.

Right...and what about Deek?

Will's keen for it just to be me and him.

I should've spoken to him first.

So, Deek's just out, is he?

How did he take it?

I haven't told him yet.

-You haven't told him?!

-I've just had the conversation with Will

and you're the one that needs to know first!

No, what you mean is, you had to get me to agree first.

-Yes.

-How can you dump Deek, just like that?

I didn't want to but...

But what?

Hayley, I'm in love, really in love this time

and I don't want to blow it.

What kind of a relationship is it, Robbie,

if he can just overrule you like this?

That's not what he's doing. Not at all.

I hurt him by not asking him about this.

He's showing me how much he loves me by putting this money up.

Hayley, I can't just ignore it.

-Even if it means dumping on your pals?

-I know, I know!

Hayley, help me out!

OK, fine, we'll go with Will, if it's really what you want.

It is. Thank you.

But no celebration drinks until you've met Deek and told him what you've done.

I will. Sorry.

Save that for Deek.

Gonnae come with me?

No. Call me when you've sorted it.

Here, pal. Cheers.

All back to normal then, I sere.

Looks like it. Right boys, what're you after?

-On the house.

-Two large whiskies, two chasers.

Cheers, Raymond, I'll pay for it this time.

I insist.

Paying for whisky I bought?

I know...but Raymond'll be good for that money, don't worry.

Let's hope not.

What?

The clock's already started on the interest. He owes me double already.

That wasn't the deal.

-It is now.

-Why didn't you tell me this?

Why didn't you tell me that Angie had been to see you?

You just got here, I never got the chance.

She was late for a client, he complained.

I called her and she said that she'd been to see you.

What's all that about?

Look, I'm running those two girls for you, right?

So, I don't need to check in with my every move, OK?

Is that right?

There you go, boys.

Cheers.

-Enjoy.

-Raymond, I was thinking of having a few friends over

later for a card game, is that all right?

Sure.

He doesn't deserve this.

He's a loser. I'd be a much better landlord than he is.

It was you that turned this place over last night.

Not me. It was Lenny.

-Ask Raymond.

-Later.

And next time you get to feeling sorry for your wee pal over there,

just remember your poor brother banged up in a cell, right?

Why should I help Henderson?

Look at it this way, it means Sean's practically setting up shop, right through the wall from you.

Aye, well, you know the old one about friends and enemies?

C'mon, isn't that a bit too close?

No, it means I've got him right in my sights.

And what about Raymond?

Collateral damage.

Look, this is an opportunity for me and you.

But not for Raymond.

Family comes first. We nail Sean, your brother's off the hook.

So, we just sit and we watch.

Agreed?

-Hiya.

-Is Hayley here?

-No, she's going to meet us a wee bit later.

OK, well, let's get the drinks in.

Deek, could I speak to you for a minute before we go in.

-Sure.

-Can we go round here?

-Aye.

You still worried about this?

-Yeah, Deek, actually, it's...

-There's nothing to worry about.

That's why I said I'll handle all the boring business with Hayley.

You just enjoy the champagne.

Zinnie! Can we get bottle of bubbly, please.

No, Deek! Don't do that...

Hey, it's no all for us! We'll need to save some for Hayley.

So, what's the celebration?

Well, Robbie and me are going to be taking over Number Eighteen when Hayley goes.

Oh, wow! That is brilliant! Congratulations!

-Thanks.

-So are you going to re-name it?

I don't know. Hadn't really thought about it, but suggestions are welcome.

The Dos Amigos?

Keep them coming.

You'll be fine once you've had a drink.

Hey.

Hey.

Something wrong?

No.

So, what's the big secret?

What's this?

It's my way of saying thank you for helping me out.

A receipt for football tickets.

For you to take Conor and Adeeb.

So, I'm the good guy now?

Gabriel, you were never the bad...

Well, I'm not a good guy.

You don't know the half yet.

I'm just trying to...

If you had any sense you'd keep your boys well away from me.

Gabriel, I understand your resentment,

but, please, I'm trying to make amends here.

And I'm just trying to give you good advice.

I know how you've missed those boys and, believe me,

they've missed you, too.

All right, I'll take them.

Thank you.

Let me...

I really want to thank you properly for helping out with the boys.

I told you. It was nothing.

Could I buy you dinner sometime?

We could all go. You, me and the boys.

Happy families?

No...

just a nice time...

-hopefully.

-I don't think so.

That's up to you, of course.

I better get going. I'll see you around.

Yeah.

And we should get those "under new management" posters done

for the windows and maybe some flyers as well.

I even thought we could put an advert in the local paper. What d'you think?

Sounds like a great idea.

Just heard the news! Well done, you two!

Sweetheart! Bring a bottle of malt, four glasses?

Number one, I'm not your sweetheart and...

Could be, if you played your cards right!

And number two, we don't do spirits by the bottle.

Check it out with Raymond, it'll be fine. I've got a tab.

Right boys, have a warm up?

That guy over there says he wants a bottle of malt,

and it would be OK with you.

No, he's at it. Just give them doubles.

Says he's got a tab set up, is that right?

Yeah, that's right.

How much for?

Look...just keep a running total, we'll sort it out later on.

Hayley! >

You OK with our deal?

Well, I can't say I'm pleased with the way Deek's been treated.

Robbie rushed into this without even talking it through.

Well, it's typical of him, I know.

And if I'm honest, it does make more sense for the two of you

to go into business together - if Deek hadn't offered first.

It's messy, I know.

I genuinely wish it wasn't and I want to make it right.

OK. I got fed up waiting for Robbie to call. Have you heard from him?

No, but I'm meant to meet him in the pub later so...

I hope it went OK with Deek.

Look, boys, it's the short arm of the law.

THEY LAUGH

No sign. Raymond, is Robbie here?

He's in the beer garden.

Well, Deek's still here, must have gone all right.

Hiya. I made him save you some champagne.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

-You're taking it well.

-I haven't told him yet!

Told me what?

I tried, I just couldn't do it!

Robbie, what is it?

Will's putting up the money for the salon.

Instead of me?

Yes.

And you've agreed?

Obviously.

Deek, sit down, we can talk about it calmly.

What is there to talk about?

-Deek! Wait! Come back!

-Robbie, maybe you should let him go.

No, I cannae!

Deek! You've every right to be mad at me. I understand but...

You know, I worry for you, I really do!

You've allowed that guy to take over your life.

No, I've allowed Will to share my life.

Did he suggest ditching me?

That's not how it happened.

He explained that had he known how much I wanted it,

the money would've been there.

He did know! How could he have not known?

He knew about the sale but that was before Hayley made me this special offer.

When there was no chance of getting it

-he didn't feel the need to put his hand in his pocket.

-No!

Yes, Robbie, yes! He couldn't bear the thought of somebody else stealing his thunder.

He could have done this for you so easily in the first place.

Deek, I have handled this badly, terribly, and I'm sorry.

But that's not fair on Will. It's not about you, it's about him

and me fully committing to each other.

Dress it up any way you like. The guy is a control freak.

And he's got you exactly where he wants you.

Deek, can we still be pals?

I don't want us to lose our friendship over this.

Right now, Robbie? I don't know.

I really don't.

< Leyla? Is that you?

Yeah...

Hey!

What's on?

MasterChef.

-Boring.

-You should've seen this guy,

he was crying before they even judged his food.

-You just want to hug him!

-Batter him!

Big girl's blouse.

-How was the football in the end, boys?

-Fantastic.

It was better than this.

Good. I'm glad to hear it.

There's some left over pasta, if you want it.

No, I'm fine.

I'm feeling quite tired, actually.

I might head up for an early night. Where's Stevie?

He got a shift at the Ship.

Great.

-I'll see you in the morning.

-Night.

-Night.

-Night.

Come on!

Bust!

LAUGHTER

Sean, no money on the table. There's a cop at the bar!

It's only at the end of each hand. Look, we're using matches.

I don't think he's gonnae be fooled.

Trust me, he's not that clever.

C'mon, Sean!

All right, Mr Landlord,

get me a pen and paper, right? We'll take notes.

Right, another one.

He giving you bother?

No, no, it's fine. No bother.

Stevie, double voddie and tonic, please.

Is that a good idea, mixing with champagne?

No. That's why I'm doing it.

Right, I'm going up the road.

But you haven't even touched that drink!

-You have it.

-I thought we were going up the town?

-We can do it before I leave.

-Oh, Hayley, no!

Robbie, she wants to go home.

OK.

I'll talk to you tomorrow about lawyers and stuff.

Yeah. Goodnight.

Come on, this is turning into a wake. Stevie!

Robbie? Are you sure?

Yes, I am!

All right?

-Jeez!

-Sorry.

Raymond. See that Sean guy, is he giving you hassle?

No, no. Not at all. I've just been going over the order.

I don't think I've got enough whisky in.

I think we might run out.

That's all right. We'll just water down what's left.

We can't do that!

I was joking.

Oh, right...

..of course, sorry.

I'm just a wee bit frazzled right now,

with all that break-in carry on.

Away you up and get an early night. I'll shut the shop with Zinnie.

No, no, I'll be fine. I better get back to it.

OK, one for the ditch.

No, Robbie, we're done, c'mon.

You might be, I'm no'. Raymond!

Robbie just wants to say goodnight.

I want another drink.

Robbie, I'm not about to argue with a cop.

It's a conspir... conspiracy!

Raymond, is everything OK there?

Yeah, it's just a friendly game of cards. They're fine.

He gives you any bother, just let me know.

-There's no bother, Will, thanks.

-Come on, it's home time.

Am I a bad person?

No, you are not a bad person.

You like me, don't you?

Robbie, everybody likes you, I love you.

-Well, that's good...

-Isn't it?

Things are just warming up now.

We'll need a lock-in.

Gonnae be a long night.

-What?

-A lock-in.

I don't do lock-ins.

You know, I'm getting the distinct feeling that your gratitude

isnae all that it should be.

Sean, I'm grateful for all that you've done for me,

but I draw a line at breaking the law.

Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but you already have.

Have what?

That delivery you took today? Knocked off.

But there was paperwork! I signed for it!

These guys are pros.

They always make it look kosher,

in case anybody's watching that shouldn't be.

You signed for zip. Your cop pal that just left?

Keen as mustard, him(!)

So, are we getting our lock-in or not?

Good man!

Split it!

Right... >

What did he say to you?

-What you talking about?

-Raymond, drop it! You look like you've been skelped in the guts.

What did he say?

I don't want to involve you, son.

I'm already involved, in't I? Now tell me!

Stevie, son.

I have dug a hole for myself.

That booze we got today...

it was knock off.

Gabriel done the dirty on you?

Actually, I got the booze from Sean.

Argh! Don't tell me that, Raymond!

You know what that means, don't you?

Sean did it.

He did the pub last night. I guarantee it.

How come you never asked me about him?

I didn't think you knew him.

I know enough.

Gabriel said it would be all right.

Why would he say that?

I didn't set you up, Raymond.

So why blank me and hide in here the dark?

You vouched for Sean.

I told you it was your call. You didn't have to take the offer.

C'mon Gabriel, that's a cop out!

What you getting out of this?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

You expect me to believe that?

No, I don't. But it's the truth.

Why you doing this, then?

I can't tell you. Except that I had no choice.

Sean's threatened you?

Look, Raymond, the less you know, the better.

The less...? I've got every right to know!

I'm the one who's gettin' a doin' here!

I'm sorry. My hands are tied.

Well, that's everything just dandy, isn't it? Thanks for nothing!

Where's your boss?

I think he's in the cellar.

Tell him I need to see him.

Nae bother.

You're barred.

I deserve that.

Any time.

-I was way out of line. I was...

-Treating me like dirt.

Yeah, and for that I am truly sorry.

HE SCOFFS

So, what's brought on this big apology?

I now know who did the break-in...

and it wasn't Lenny.

Like I told you.

So, who was it?

I'd better not say. Be safer for you.

That's very considerate(!)

I am in deep trouble, I know you couldn't care less right now...

-..but I really need a favour.

-Oh, do you?

I need to speak to Lenny and I know he won't want to.

-Can you blame him?

-No.

So, a quick apology and Jim'll fix it?

He'll listen to you.

You humiliated me in front of people.

I'll make it up to you, Jimmy. I promise.

The problem is, I can't do the right thing. Isn't that what you said?

I'm begging you here, Jim. Are you gonnae help me?

Listen, I really appreciate you seeing me.

What do you want?

I need...

I really need your help

or at least some idea of how to deal with...

Oh, this is rich! Should I frisk you for a wire first(?)

-I made a mistake.

-You made a few.

What was I this morning again?

A lowlife scumbag? How'd it go again?

Sorry.

"Sorry," and I'm supposed to be what exactly? Grateful? Pleased? Eh?

It's just that this morning...

You found your pub ransacked and you blamed me.

You were that angry at me, that you cannae see,

even though it would've been obvious to a blind man,

that the guy that comes to your rescue, he's the guy that done it in the first place.

Your friend and saviour, Sean. Am I right?

-Did Gabriel tell you?

-No, no, he didn't have to.

How do people like you get through life?

I know it's not me, how hard d'you think it is for me to figure things out?

Why didn't you tell me this morning?

Let me refresh your memory.

This morning you told me I was the guilty party!

That still doesn't explain why...

I wanted to see what he was gonnae do. Now I know.

-And what about me?

-What about you?

-I just get thrown to the wolves?

-And I should care?

Why is Gabriel involved with this guy?

-Who said he is?

-He told me to take Sean's offer!

That means nothing.

He said tonight, there was things I shouldn't ask him about,

for my own good. What's going on, Lenny?

That was good advice you got.

-What do I do?

-Do?

You do what you like.

I look after myself.

Now, if you don't mind.

Zinnie away?

Aye, I got her off early before I locked this mob in.

-Good man.

-You get a result?

Nah. I'll tell you about it later. You should get home.

I'm not going anywhere.

I don't like the idea of you being here on your own with that.

Thanks, son, but I'll be fine. Go, now.

Where've you been?

I was down in the cellar changing a barrel. You want a drink?

I've had a bad run. I need a couple of hundred quid.

Just get it out the till for me, will you?

You can take it off what you owe me.

C'mon, I've got to get back.

And bring over another round of drinks.

You can't win if you don't play! Deal, boys!

THEY CHEER

There goes another couple of hundred quid.

I can't do this, there's nothing left.

-So what are you saying?

-This has got to stop.

I've not even started.

Coat, bag, now.

-What?!

-Go home, you're suspended.

You can't suspend me.

That man needs kept away from my family.

All we've got is your word against his.

-Were you drinking at work this morning?

-I'm closing the door.

Deal with this, we might be able to stop it becoming a disciplinary.

-Get lost!

-I have to formally ask you to come to a meeting tomorrow, to discuss this with the partners.
