All language subtitles for Monarch Of The Glen s06e05

You all right, Jess? See, the boys got
their toys then.

Why, we thought we'd better test them
out before we let them loose on the

general public.

Noisy, stupid and dangerous.

And that's the people who ride them.

Don't you want to start speaking like
that?

We're informal.

Oh, and my blind granny drives better
than that.

I see.

Jeff is entitled to her opinion.

I was thinking you were the lead round
here.

We're a team.

Teams need captain.

Never hurts to remind people who's in
charge.

You can say the man out of the army. You
have to lead from the front.

I did that once before, remember?

What happened wasn't your fault.

So, what are you going to do now you're
no longer the man from the ministry?

I'm going stale behind a desk. I need a
change, a new challenge. I'm sure I can

find something to distract me.

Look! Look!

There he is, back left.

The one holding the paint glass? No,
that Princess Grace of Monaco, next to

there.

It's about four kids. He probably had a
few, but that's definitely him, all

right. Wee Jackie McIntyre.

The finest mechanic that Goebbels ever
produced.

He raced hell out, drank the devil and
sent him scurrying back to the fiery

death. All right.

It was life as it should be lived. On
the edge.

Racing was different back then.

None of this traction control nonsense.
Just four wheels and a prayer.

One slip and...

They'd be scraping off the grandstand
for weeks.

And now, we, Jackie McIntyre, is engaged
to be married.

Who is this creature, this siren, who
has tamed a raging beast?

I thought you said her name was Isla.
Oh,

rhetorical, my dear boy, rhetorical.
Come on!

We have a stag in our midst.

You've missed a bit.

MacIntyre! Donald Ulysses MacDonald!

Well, it's a nice sweet place you go
here.

But then, you always wear the fancy
down.

It's a cross I have to bear. Where's
that greasy little monkey that I knew

loved? Where are the others?

Ah, well...

Dear Brian, I'm so weak to you.

Oh?

Aye,

aye. Aye.

Let me guess.

Oh, did Dad stag, or was that last
evening?

I can't really think.

That's what worries me.

So, what's this?

I thought we could do with a change.

Something healthy.

Healthy? Mm -hmm.

The eggs are in the fridge.

Thank you.

You know, when I said yes to the second
date, I was thinking dinner.

Too keen.

Just imagine.

No chance of breakfast?

None whatsoever.

Hungry?

Business.

100 % organic.

Should put down a storm at the market.

Oh, I can see it now. Isabel Anderson,
burger queen.

Strictly a means to an end.

Tried to need some new clutch.

Can't you just say pretty please to the
bank manager?

Oh, no.

No. This place has to pay its way.

A real farm, not a hobby or a weekend
indulgence.

Alex, about last night, it was just a
date.

I mean, it was fun, but it was just a
date.

I don't want anything else, not at the
moment.

Anyway, it's not as if you're sticking
around.

I give up.

Replacing yourself is one of the perks
of being middle -aged, free and single.

There's a difference between living the
bachelor life and letting yourself go.

You could at least replace that old
jacket.

I'm just wearing that on.

Dad, it can stand up by itself.

You're silly.

Don't exaggerate.

Deed.

He still gave up the ghost halfway up.

They found him three weeks later.

Big Donny.

Always had a fag on the go.

He wouldn't quit.

Reckoned he was likely to get hit by a
bus.

That's the one.

How is he?

Deed.

Jumped a wee red man on Sookie Hall
Street.

Hit by a bus.

At least they're the satisfaction of
being right.

So you're saying we're the only ones
left?

That's about the size of it.

Then we owe it to them to do this
properly. No quarter given.

We drink, we carouse, we take life by
the scruff of the neck and shake it

till it rattles.

Sorry.

It reminds me as I take my pills.

Is it me or is Hellraiser not what it
used to be?

How about that one? Be

brown.

Too flappy. I don't like flaps.

There you go.

We seem to have a meeting of minds, but
I think you saw it first.

No, no, you please sign, sister.

Well, thank you.

It's usually every man for himself.

What do you think?

Very nice.

Got no flaps.

You know, I hate the ones with flaps
everywhere.

Well, I'd better pay for it before you
change your mind.

Straight up at those flops.

Didn't your mother warn you about giving
lifts to strange men?

Don't worry, I've got a black belt in
screaming.

You might need it.

Why don't I come to your friend's
dashing charms?

Oh. You wouldn't be the first.

Anyway, it's none of my business.

No, it's none of your business.

Talking of which, you thought about my
offer?

Yeah.

Another 12 acres is a lot of work.

And enough for another 10 head of
cattle.

I'm going to make it pay. I've got to
think bigger.

Now, why do I get the impression you've
already made your mind up?

What about a real drink?

The medication.

To married life.

And all who sail in it.

Cheers.

Of course, you realize you're making a
dreadful mistake.

In my experience, marriage entails
certain sacrifices, usually human,

often bloody.

Ah, but when you're in love... Only
makes it worse.

know what you're up to, MacDonald.

Look, I'm a changed man.

All I want are a few fizzy pops, a
couple of laughs, and then that's about

old days.

You know, I might be able to help you
there.

I'll have Isabel to drive you back.

You seem churlish to look a gift horse
in the mouth.

Which reminds me, Jeff, why do I get the
feeling she's walking all over you?

The fact that she's got an attitude has
nothing to do with the way I run the

estate. It's got everything to do with
it. You want to feel like the lad,

got to start acting like one.

Jeff sees you mucking in every day and
she thinks, oh, well, leave it to Paul.

So what, you think she should call me
too? She should show you the respect you

deserve.

OK, I'm listening.

Let me take over as factor.

You leave all the day -to -day running
to me. That way you're free to

concentrate on being the left.

Yeah, there's just one small problem.

We can't afford it.

A more efficient estate means more money
in all our pockets.

Yeah, in theory.

All right, look.

I need something.

It's just not possible, Alex.

I'm sorry.

Paul Bowman?

Yeah.

Sorry, I am addressing the Laird of
Glenbogle.

Apparently.

Dorothy Buchanan.

From the Forestry Commission.

Nothing to worry about. I know we have a
reputation.

But, as we say at Roslyn, I'm just here
for the trees.

Look at the man.

A shell.

A shadow of his former self.

And all because of the influence of that
old she -devil Eve.

I believe the current expression is cat
-thrashed.

You think all this will help?

How are you feeling?

It's hard to describe.

That's the old adrenaline running.

All we have to do now is push him over
the edge.

A carefully calibrated blend of petrol,
motor oil, and good, honest male sweat.

Guaranteed to reignite even the most
spluttering of belly fires.

He knew.

I think I could use that drink.

We can dance this night together.

And up for two, and down for two.

Round two, three, four, and back.

I think dancing was for losers.

Now I'm convinced.

Maybe you should try it.

Sorry, I don't take lifestyle advice
from barmaids. It's just a wee rule of

mine.

What's going on?

In theory, the path of Dobley. In
practice... But there's no need for

stand in the way of a little personal
expression.

I'm Meg.

Golly. This is my daughter.

Hi, dear.

The village hall was double booked, but
a dancing teacher has to think on her

feet. I can see I've trespassed on holy
ground, but don't worry, we're almost

done, unless you'd like to try a crash
course.

No, no, I'm not very much a dancer, are
you?

Oh, come on, Pat.

Sword dancing.

Get a dram and save this one, and he's
panting around for the best of them.

Now that, I would pay to see.

No, I insist.

One good turn.

Thank you.

Nice of you.

Like me, can't stand around here all
day.

What are you doing?

I'm letting the dogs see their habit.

I'm terribly sorry.

There's definitely a shortfall. You're
telling me that on an estate that is

almost completely covered with trees,
they need to plant more?

You don't consider trees important?

Not vitally.

See? No, I think what Alex is trying to
say is, why us?

I'm afraid our continuing grants rely on
you maintaining an appropriate arboreal

balance. Hold on. You're saying we've
got the wrong type of trees?

You're currently falling short by five
hectares, which, if it stands, means we

shall have to reduce your current
subsidies by... £50 ,000.

Right, well, I'll work on the estate.

And head gully.

What, shooting poachers, that kind of
thing?

Three this week already.

You're joking.

So what do you really do?

Well,

that's hard to explain.

Well, then you can show me.

I'm sure we never received anything from
you.

What if they simply cut down some of the
wrong trees?

Are you suggesting selective
deforestation?

Yes.

No.

Ah, Jess.

This is Miss Buchanan from the...
Deforestation Commission.

Yeah, she said we've received a letter,
but I've just been selling her. So first

I've heard of it.

Don't you remember?

You said you were going to deal with it
about, ooh, three months ago.

like a sieve.

I feel it picking in the middle.

I'll leave you to sort this out between
you.

Can I just say, I consider trees
important.

Vitally important.

Don't look at me.

£50 ,000.

Well, you take it all on, this is what
happens.

I can do it.

Well, as a factor.

Why not?

I'm efficient.

I know how to get the best out of
people.

I think we'll give you time to
concentrate on the real reason you're

Is this what you want?

No, what I want...

It's to go back to the regiment.

And taking a bullet made down the shore,
that's not possible.

Paul, I've never asked you for anything.

But I'm asking you now for the chance to
make a fresh start.

A trial period.

So, as a factor, I'd like you to
consider any request from Alex that's

from me, OK?

Any questions?

What's the lad going to be doing from
now on?

Acting like one.

Oh.

Beautiful.

I can see why you love it here.

You do love it, don't you?

Here.

A 20 ,000 bracer gross at these hills.

And this is the only thing they'll eat.

And you should have, Heather.

Can't feed them with grain, you can't
rear them in cages.

They're just here.

All I can do is help them the best I
can.

Same with the salmon in the river and
the stags up in the hill.

All wild.

Wild and free.

Like you.

They can come and go as they please.

Leave just as the fancy takes them.

I don't even know your real name.

Golly. I know.

Golly. Golly the Gilly.

But it must be short for something.

Just Golly.

Well, what?

How was your date?

We took a walk, that's all.

Dad. With a drink. She wanted to see the
estate.

But she's interested.

Oh, of course she's not interested.

Really?

Oliver. Yep.

Then when you're done here, you can
start on the other rooms.

Other rooms?

Great Hall, dining room, lad's bedroom.

It's all here.

Hi. Is Golly here?

You dismissed him, actually.

Is that... He left it at the pub and
they thought it was one of my lot.

I'm afraid someone seems to have spilt
something on it. It has a certain sort

atmosphere. Right, right, yeah.

I'll make sure he gets it. Right. OK.
OK. Bye. Bye.

You're better and better at this.

You wanted something.

We need to get to town, or at least to
the nearest hostel, Rick.

You stand early.

And won't the police have something to
say about that?

Well... Being annoyed of their fear
without Paul.

Oh, it's a risk I'm willing to take.

Jackie's plight trumps such trivial
considerations.

Hold on.

You've seen the police's involved.

Look, I can't have any trouble.

Jackie has a morbid fear of authority.

Since an incident in an Algerian jail...

I was just minding the bag for Abdul.

That is all I'm worried about.

What she doesn't know won't hurt you.
It's not that simple.

This was taken at a Strathclyde
policeman's do.

She's a chief superintendent.

She's worse than I thought.

Ewan, it's time for all good men to come
to the aid of a stag party.

You want the car? Well, I... I know it's
a lot to ask, but in the

circumstances...

I'm driving.

You want my help?

I don't pretend to know the first thing
about running an estate like this.

But I do know what I want.

To get this place back to its roots.

you're the one person who can help me do
that.

What exactly do you have in mind?

What's the matter?

Can't find any friends from your own
generation?

It's a thug party.

It's halfway to a funeral, but I look
for them.

Why don't you drop them off at home and
take me away from all of this?

Have you never heard a help me agent?

When does this place fill up?

Evenings, usually.

It's called working for a living.

Yeah, yeah. But we need atmosphere.

Dancing.

Any of you boys know how to pass a
dobley?

Well, it's got your hand up it.

I've got a lift.

Number one, to create crash barriers.

This is deliberate.

He knows how I feel about this race,
Tony.

Still. Can't support his organisation.

He said that about Hitler, probably.

The track's part of the activity centre.

Just a bit of fun.

What, coughing smoke and fumes
everywhere?

Did you start out the treatment?

Yeah, Alex is working on it.

Hey, I'll tell you what.

I'll do your deal, right?

You give him a chance, and I'll give you
a hand. Can't say fairer than that.

Come on.

i see this is going to be tougher than i
thought yours i believe

come on where are we going shopping

I count Jess as a friend. Same goes for
Golly and Ewan. Thought part of the deal

was being given a free hand. Yeah, all
right, but they're not expendable.

Any of them.

We still need to sort out that woman
from the forestry commission.

Not we, me.

That's why I'm the factor, remember?

Paul just wants us to give the guy a
fair crack at a whip.

Yeah, literally.

If this isn't right, Paul needs to see
it for himself.

And if he doesn't?

Well, then we just have to sit back and
take it until he does.

Oh, yeah.

You had a visitor.

It's not like you to forget it.

Something else on your mind?

Have you not got the list?

Can I help you?

I hope so.

May I introduce the Laird of Glenbogle?

We were looking for something a little
more...

traditional.

Could you give that to Meg for me?
Thanks.

Are you sure about this?

Trust me.

That's all I've got.

Lack of demand.

Funny that.

I'm not wearing this. I feel like a
prat.

And I look like one.

We'll take it.

Exactly how is this going to help? Ever
hear the expression, clothes makeeth the

man?

When we said dancing, I was thinking
more of petty feet.

I'm the only one in here with both worn
hats.

It'll pick up in a minute.

You might be right.

I don't know it now, but I think you've
filmed.

So, partners, please.

Come on, then.

Come on, you.

Five, six, seven, eight. And down, step,
side, close. And up, two, three, four.

And down, two, three, four.

Down, down, down, down.

Five, six, seven, eight. And down, step,
side, close. And up, two, three, four.

This may have been a tactical error. I'm
worried for the boy.

Usual route.

Five minutes.

Thank

you.

This way.

Fishy. You need to get a grip of...

How a lad spends his time, which I
believe traditionally involves hunting,

shooting, and... Well, so I just waste
time while the others work.

It's called leadership.

This way, you can keep your eye on the
big picture, everything ready. As it

ever be.

Right, come on.

Okay, okay, let's get this over with.

I'm beginning to think it's frightened
you all off. Miss Buchanan, shall we

trees?

Remember what I said, son.

Take it back sharp.

Pause, mate.

Pause, and then hold.

And this is what my father did all day.

Hector was always very keen on his
fishing. Made up until the end.

Shame I didn't inherit any of his skill.

I would think Hector had called it that.

I'm sure he would have loved the chance
to show you.

Pause.

Are you sure you trust your friend
enough to run your life for you?

Alex deserves his chance.

That's what he said.

He might be just the change this place
needs.

A new way of doing things.

He just knew him.

Well, I'll just have to get used to it.

And remember, pause at the tone.

That would have been a layer, Des.

I suppose learning to trust your own
instincts.

I don't know if you got the right one.

Yeah,

that's always been the tricky part.

It was much better.

Much better.

All right.

Might as well no one else is.

The train is cold.

It better be.

Enough is enough, MacDonald.

Let's just get in the car and go home
before anybody sees us.

I see you have competition.

If you can call it that.

Is it?

I know that. You know that.

Yeah, but the masses are voting with
their wallets.

I'm no economist.

But have you considered... I cut mine.
He cuts his. If I go any lower, I might

as well give them away.

Yeah.

Oh, you play dirty.

Hmm?

Okay, mister, what'll it be?

Environmental health.

Carry down Gleeson. No, don't say it.
I've had it all. Nothing to worry about.

Just a routine spot check.

Monitoring your progress on certain
areas, eh?

Now then, where, for instance, are we on
the rat?

What rat problem?

Ah, I see. Still in denial.

Okay.

Cockroaches. I know that the last time
we spoke, you claimed that the rats were

eating the cockroaches. But as I
explained at the time, technically, that

against the regulations.

This is a joke, right? On the contrary,
I'm very serious about public health.

Right. And I have to remind you that any
violence towards Her Majesty's

Inspector is a criminal offense.

Go!

Go! Go!

What are you doing? You're going the
wrong way, Nanny.

Can't it help me? Stop!

Stop! Stop!

Plant in here.

cost you next to nothing.

Would do.

Only we've promised it to Isabel
Anderson, one of our tenant farmers.

Far be it from me to meddle in state
politics.

But... It's called farmland premium.

Paid for change of use.

Plant this land and you'll be in line
for a further grant.

How much?

I can see you're busy.

Dad, there's an injured dag up in the
lock -in.

I'm sure you're more than capable.

I was hoping you'd be able to sort it.

Go on, go. I think the fish have had
enough punishment for one day.

Sorry to spoil your life of leisure.

No, you're doing us both a favour.

Like your friend.

That's what they call regimental
loyalty, or is it just good old jobs for

boys?

You've made the right decision.

The three people must make the book.

Absolutely.

I believe these belong to you.

It wouldn't be so hard on a boy. Of
course, if I'd been driving. Oh, here we

The great Donald MacDonald.

God's gift to motorsport.

Well, I claim a certain confidence.

Le Mans 62.

What happened?

Loose rack and pinion.

That's it.

They were fine.

The truth was, you lost it on the third
corner.

It was supposed to be 24 hours and we
lasted 15 seconds.

Where my steering went?

Just like that time at Monaco.

Brake cables.

Face it, MacDonald.

I could have won more races than you
with one hand behind my back.

But you were the man from the big house.
You supplied the money.

So we fought with you.

You'd think you were the better driver.

No, just me.

Oh, come on. You're upset.

We all say things we don't mean. Ah,
think what you like.

I was beginning to think you'd changed
your mind.

What are you doing here?

Well, I got your note.

Note?

Here.

Golly.

Listen, I'm sorry about this.

It's been a mistake. I didn't write
that.

So who did?

We've been set up.

Well, whoever it was, they know how to
pick a spot.

I'm sorry that you've been dragged all
the way up here. I'll drive you back.

It seems a shame to waste all of this.

What do you think if someone went to all
this trouble?

Trouble is the word, all right.

Perhaps they were trying to do you a
favour.

Well, am I supposed to be grateful or
something?

I would think.

It's called farmland premium.

Plant that land, we keep our 50 ,000.

Plus, they cough up another wedge of
cash on top.

Get your race track up and running with
room to spare.

No need to thank me.

I promised her. We shook on the deal.

But nothing in writing.

Well, that's only the point.

Oh, look, Isabel's lived her little
rural fantasy, but now the chickens have

come home to roost. She's losing money
hand over fist. There's no way she's

going to stick it out.

We're offering her a way out.

We pay her off, plant the whole farm and
everyone's happy.

The end justifies the means.

I know it's tough, but it's the right
decision for the whole estate.

Except for Isabel.

Especially Isabel.

We both know she's not cut out for this.

She trusts me. I can put it to her.

At least give her the option.

I don't know.

It feels underhand.

I can't just sell her down the river.

Don't worry, you won't have to.

Peace offering.

I think I've had enough, though.

Come on.

Callum poking his nose in was just a
setback at worst.

For you, maybe.

I've got responsibilities.

There's a police woman out there with my
ring on her finger. For now.

Forever, Donald.

Look at me.

I'm this far off being an old man.

I need peace.

And I need quiet.

And I need Isle.

Pipe and slippers?

A woman that loves me.

I know you almost as well as you know
yourself.

And I know you've never had that.

I beg... Oh, I know there have been the
great passions and the fly -by -night

lasses.

But you've never had what I've got,
Whitmile.

Perhaps I didn't want it.

I was a racer, a risk -taker. I couldn't
settle down.

You think you're living life.

That's the way I'm sitting.

All you've ever done is avoid.

I'm not prepared to make that mistake.

Did you find it?

Come on, what happened?

Nothing happened.

I'm related to my own daughter.

The woman is practically half my age.

I was trying to help you.

What was I supposed to say to her?

Hello? I run my own life.

Dad.

Look, how do you think I feel?

I hate seeing you like this.

Like what exactly?

Lonely.

Dad!

What happened?

Don't believe me if I told you.

You know, I thought if I worked hard, if
I put in the hours, things would come

good.

What are you doing here, Alec?

Um, I've got some news.

Paul's given me the factor's job.

Congratulations.

It means I'll be sticking around.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Not what you want to hear right now, I
know.

I'm pleased.

I really am.

Now I was thinking, maybe all this is
for the birth.

How'd you work that one out?

I had this burger thing going pear
-shaped.

You said yourself it was a test.

Maybe it's, I don't know, fate.

God's way of telling me to stop being a
silly little girl.

Or not to bite off more than you can
chew.

Sounds familiar.

Look, I wanted to... No, um... No, you
first.

I just wanted to say about your job.

I'm really glad that you're staying.

Nice to have someone on my side for a
change.

I said I left it with them earlier, but
it completely flipped my mind.

I don't understand.

There's just some forms for Miss
Anderson to sign. For the farmland

You know what I liked about the army?

It was all laid out for you.

You got up when they told you, you did
what they told you, and you went to bed.

When they told you.

Yeah, I remember.

It was simple.

Officers and men.

Lads used to laugh at them.

You know, people like Alex.

Because we all knew what we did. We were
in charge.

We were in Kosovo together.

Alex was my field.

I was leading a routine patrol.

I saw a group of civilians, God knows
what they were doing there, but they

coming under fire.

I had to make a decision.

So I took the squad in.

And it was a trap.

As soon as we got there, all hell broke
loose.

Alex had to come in and bail me out.

That's when he got hit.

He was invalided out a few months later.

Because of me.

True.

And now you're the one in charge.

Paul, your father was a very eccentric
man.

He made mistakes, lots of them.

He had his own way of doing things.

But somehow, one way or the other, it
all seemed to work out.

I suppose he had an instinct for the
place.

For the right thing to do.

And what if I don't want to take charge?

Someone else will do it.

This place is bigger than all of us,
son.

All we can do is take care of it the
best we can.

What if my best isn't good enough, Guy?

Just don't feel for the one who tried.

It wasn't your father's way and I'm damn
sure it isn't yours.

You knew about this?

Where'd you get it?

Hey, you okay?

Don't.

See that?

That's my life.

That's all I've got.

And it's nothing.

Doesn't look like nothing.

You should look harder.

I shouldn't have walked out like that.

I know.

What you want me to do, I... I just
don't think I can.

Take the risk of me.

Dad, it was only supposed to be a date.

It's a bit of fun.

To you, Mary, it's... What you have to
understand is the death of Molly.

I made a decision just to leave all that
stuff behind me.

Get out of the game permanently.

Retired hurt.

Just like that?

No.

No, no, not just like that.

I would like someone.

Someone like your mum, even.

But... I'm scared.

There was me thinking you weren't scared
of anything.

Do you like her, Meg?

Yes.

Yes, I do.

Want to help this?

What, you want... No, no, we agreed you
were going to discuss it with her.

I am, I was about to.

What, but in the meantime you thought
you'd get the ball rolling anyway?

No, no, it wasn't like that. She was
upset.

Oh, don't tell me.

She needed a shoulder to cry on.

Oh, come on, this is why you employed me
to do your dirty work for you. Run the

estate while the lad keeps his
conscience clean.

You just don't get it, do you?

We're not talking about pieces on a
board. These are people. Real people.

Sometimes the end justifies the means,
Paul. No.

Maybe for you, not for me.

Not anymore.

Can someone tell me what's going on?

Get him away from here.

Get him off my phone.

What did you say to him?

Look, he asked for it.

All this nonsense about Isla.

He's jealous.

He's alone.

Do you think he needed you to tell him
that?

He's got all this.

People waiting on him, hand and foot.

And would you swap him?

No, I can't say I would.

The question is, what are we going to do
about it?

It didn't happen the way you think it
did.

What you had

with the rest of the squad, I

could never get that.

I tried.

Don't get me wrong. I didn't need them
to like me.

But I wanted their respect.

You had it.

What happened on that street was my
fault.

But they still followed you.

Just like they do here.

Because deep down they know they can
trust you to do the right thing.

I've never had that strength.

You gave me a chance, and I blew it.

That makes us even.

It's up to me now.

Aye.

Aye.

That you are right, I should have been
grateful.

I was rude, ill -mannered, completely
out of order.

And I'm sorry.

I know that...

I don't really deserve a second chance.

You're right.

You don't.

But I'm going to give you one.

On one condition.

This is wise.

It's essential.

Aye. It's the only thing, but it's your
decision.

Hey, McDonald's! Do you remember this?

How it feels?

Every day.

You know, I wouldn't have missed it for
the world.

I couldn't have done it without you.

May the best man win.

He intends to.

I really have to do this. We had a deal.

I'm waiting.

Listen.

Just one more thing.

What exactly is golly short for?

Come here.

Shall I tell you a secret now?

Yes, please.

Is that gap supposed to be there?

Colonel!

Colonel?

Are you alright?

I don't know. They'll never change.

You got it running, then?

Yeah, thank Jackie.

Well, at least they could see after the
mess they made in my stall.

Well, that's it, then.

Ten years, whether I like it or not.

Sorry about the neighbours.

Well, you know, you can't have
everything.

Still think you can make a go of it?

Who knows?

At least I know who I can trust from now
on.

Paul.

Can I just ask you one thing?

Alex and me, you... aren't just a tiny
bit jealous?

Yeah, a little.

He and I were very close.

So what about your precious trees?

Evil ears can't always get what they
want.

think this is necessary in the
circumstances?
