Mimi.

Hey, Mimi.

Did you hear about the break -in at
Strathclyde House last night on Buffalo?

No. What has been stolen?

Don't know.

The meter walked in on it all, but they
got away.

Of course, to show you can't be too
careful with these tourists.

How much would you say the picture's
worth?

Oh, I really don't know.

A lot.

If they got away with this lot, they
would have made hundreds, perhaps

thousands. To get away with anything at
all?

Not as far as we can tell.

No, they didn't have the time.

There are only strangers to the house,
isn't there? Only visitors for the

fishing. A Mr and Mrs Swinton.

Mr Swinton went to school with me, but I
haven't seen him since then.

Until now.

The Steagate, sir?

No, at the local hotel, I believe.

The Athelot.

Mind if we use your telephone?

Well, if it's reconnected by all means.

Maybe you'd see to that, Sergeant.

Sir.

If I could get you to check your
statement, sir.

Yes, of course.

I aimed my gun at the man with the
picture.

I shouted to him to put the picture
down.

He didn't.

The van started to move away fast.

He dropped the picture and ran to catch
up, but he couldn't.

I fired at the rear of the van.

First a tyre, and its road can stop.

Driver go out, and then off into the
trees.

Thank you very much indeed.

Right, goodbye.

Could you just sign it, please?

It's perhaps just as well you missed
him, sir.

Have you ever fired a shotgun,
Inspector?

No, sir.

I was aiming at the vehicle.

If I've been aiming to hit him...

I can assure you I will hit him.

Of course, sir.

Well, they certainly knew what they were
after.

Probably not new to the game.

I suppose they'll be well away by now.

They're not the only ones.

You and Mr and Mrs Swinton booked out of
their hotel this morning, sir.

Quarter to one this morning. What?

There was no suggestion at all when I
left them they were going.

It's a pity we didn't know about your
friends earlier.

We could have had a word with them.

They...

particularly liked that picture.

If I'd come straight to the hotel last
night for dinner, I wouldn't have walked

in on the burglary.

Steady on. There's no evidence they were
involved.

That's a hell of a coincidence, though.

Still, if you manage to pick up the two
goons who were here last night, things

will become clear.

Exactly, sir.

We'll do our best.

Oh, and you were perfectly right, madam.

There is no evidence, as yet.

Thank you, sir.

Oh, uh, Forenze could stop checking
outside.

We'll be in touch later.

Thank you very much.

Well, so much for the old school tie.

Breed's initiative.

Crocs as well as statesmen.

Don't overdo it, Mother. Oh, nonsense.

I'm enjoying myself.

Now off you go.

I'm sure you've got lots to do.

Alec, what's on the schedule for today?
We'll make him an ornament, yes.

Tell you what.

Why don't we take your parents out and
show them a bit of the countryside?

George can take some photographs.

Good heavens, do you mean take a day
off?

After you've finished here.

Oh, well, if you give me an hour, I can
knock up a picnic.

Not all day.

Oh, this is boring. What's happening?

Don't be long, Chrissie.

Stop scratching.

I don't know what's wrong with you. Come
on, let's get going.

Get the stuff packed then.

Why don't we find this place for
Robert's day?

What's it called?

Balboory. That's not it. What is it
then? I don't know.

We told you.

We did not. Yes, we did. We did. No!

We'll have a look for it after I wreck
it, all right?

Don't get any ideas.

Properties in Perth, like this, usually
sell well.

Around £2 ,000, I reckon.

Can't be sure until after probate, of
course, but it won't be much less than

that. Might even be more.

£2 ,000?

Who'd have thought it?

What do I have to do now?

Nothing for the moment. I'll be in
touch.

You can start planning that world cruise
now.

So can't believe it.

Me neither.

I wonder how many other old Etonians
he's conned.

I'm just appalled at my own lack of
judgment.

Victoria seems such a nice person.

All part of the act.

Now I think of it, Julian was always
very plausible, even as a schoolboy.

He'd organise some kind of misdemeanour,
involve all sorts of people, and then

walk away and leave them to take the
rap. Did they pay the bill for their

fishing? Yes, thankfully, for three days
before they started.

I've heard the cheque doesn't bounce.

Ah, it was an Isle of Man bank.

It would be.

Oh, thank you.

Jenny, did you know I had no idea your
father had been sending you money?

No.

Oh, have I put my foot in it?

No, not at all. I'm glad.

He can send you as much money as he
likes, as far as I'm concerned. I just

wonder why he didn't tell me.

Well, I expect he thought you'd worry.

If I'd known you were short of money?

Yes, I probably would have worried.

Alec will only accept the money on the
condition that it's a loan and we pay it

back as soon as we possibly can.

Jenny, it's all going to be yours one
day. I mean, sooner or later.

Why don't you have it while you need it?
I know, that's what I said.

You know what men are like.

Yes, I do.

They go on about their honour and their
pride.

Oh.

Take the money and run, that's what I
say.

Look at them. Woo!

Maybe! Whoa!

Ready, go, jump. Yeah!

Anything you want me to do?

No, you carry on with that. You've got
to make up for lost time, lad.

Gee, gee, gee.

Do you like butter?

We ought to be getting back, don't we?

Oh, not for a moment.

You lie here, read your book.

Wake your father in a minute.

If he sleeps too much during the day,
he's awake half the night.

No, I could really get to like this
place.

You understand how we feel about it now,
then?

Yes, perhaps.

But all the same, it must get terribly
lonely for you and Jenny.

No, not really.

But, Alec, this is high summer. What
about the winters? I keep thinking about

the winters.

Oops.

There's a difference between being alone
and feeling lonely, you know.

Would you forgive me if I asked you
something?

Do you and Jenny never think about
another baby?

Yes, I think about it quite a lot.

Oh, and Jenny?

I honestly don't.

Are you sure? Oh, I know I should.

Well, is she afraid?

That it might happen again?

Maybe.

I mean, the doctor told her it was just
one of those things, but... Yes.

It happens. I know that. She knows that.

But it doesn't seem to change the way
she feels, the way she goes on feeling.

I'm too close.

It's very frightening.

What's wrong with it?

I think it's got some kind of injury.

Are you going to put it out of its
misery?

I should do. They're predators.

Let's see what we can do.

Fee me.

Die. Fee me.

Come on.

Come.

You seem awful pleased with yourself.

I am. I've been putting a tender to the
Forestry Commission for servicing their

vehicles.

Is that not a mate ambitious?

No. I think I've got it.

I'll be making a lot of money.

Good for you.

You don't seem very pleased for me.

Oh, I am delighted.

Oh, these are nice.

Ah.

You like them?

Philip,

where have you been?

I've been this morning screaming for you
in the street and you didn't stop, huh?

I was in a hurry.

I was off to Perth.

Perth? Why?

Isn't that things to find?

People to see.

Got plans of my own now.

What plans?

Well, I'm going to have to replace you
for a start.

Maybe I'll get myself two hired hands
instead of just the one.

Well, Bowie?

I wouldn't have thought you'd have time
for picnicking, Corey Beck.

Well, I haven't, but I thought today was
a bit special.

Mr. McCrae.

May I introduce my parents?

We all deserve a day off now and again.

How do you do?

How do you do? My wife, Marjorie.

Hello.

What's this then?

Young falcon.

Injured. All right.

What are you going to do with it?

I might take it home and see if I can
make it well again.

Are you daft, man?

Ring its neck. Make sure it doesn't do
any more damage.

The keeper will have it. No.

Maybe not this one. One less to worry
the grouse.

Mac is tired.

All he needs is food.

What would you do with that?

their wild flowers.

We have cornflower, pear bell, meadow
sweet, oxide daisy. Where did you learn

all that? She's just a simple country
girl at heart, aren't you, dear?

How's the boat?

All right. Still alive? They'll be, it
was right.

Motor bicyclists.

They're around all day.

I have no consideration.

Oh, if they'll be city lads, what can
you expect?

Balbuie.

Have you heard any rumours going around?

There's always rumours in this place.

They've got folk dead and buried if
they've got a cold on their head.

They're talking the poppers of the major
and the burglary.

What sort of rumours?

About a hydroelectric project.

Something of the kind.

There's been talk about dams and such
like. I thought you might have heard.

No, nothing.

It'll be the estate.

Oh, the lot.

The Major will not be saying anything,
even if it is.

We'll be there, lad. You know.

Okay.

More tape for you, eh?

I'll believe.

If you hear any more about the hydro,
will you let me know?

Balboorie then.

Oh, don't start that.

Balboorie. Oh, Balboorie.

I never expected this to be here. Oh,
come on. And he's come.

Brilliant, Robert. Look at him.

That is great. I just never expected you
to turn up. We never thought we'd find

a place.

I thought we'd take you up on your
invitation.

Sunglass, Bobby. Like it? Fine.

Great to see you, Robert.

What, you beer? Nice, you've got a
bottle opener. I either bet we'd overgo

pick. Got any blacker? Blacker? Sure.

You got any food in, Bobby?

I think that'll teach him to come along.

So this is it then, eh? The country
estate.

Davy.

So, eh, what do you do with yourself all
day?

Oh, there's plenty to do. My grandfather
makes sure of that.

Oh, running the farm, eh? Aye.

Fair you.

More like labour.

I'm going back to Agricultural College
in the autumn.

Aye. That'll be nice.

We might see more of you then, eh?

Maybe.

Did you get your bike?

You were always going to get that BSA,
weren't you?

Aye, I was, but I'm having to get round
to it here.

Grandad not approve, huh?

No, he can't afford it.

The places around here are great for
scrambling, Bobby.

You think so? Aye. Oh, aye, great
terrain.

They're always looking for new ground.

Places to camp, rally, good pubs.

It's not quite done with that.

I think we need to get the right bikes.

At least we've got bikes, though, Bobby,
eh?

It's a great idea, Robert.

You could join.

Bobby.

Peter, what your grandad might say?

Oh, no, it wouldn't be up to him.

It'd be up to the estate, but they'd
never allow anything like that.

The Lord and Master, eh?

But there'd be money in it for the
estate, Bobby.

It's worth thinking about.

Everybody's got their price, even
Chrissie, isn't that right?

That's right.

Don't start. But it's worth thinking
about.

Could be money in it for you as well.

Get that BFA you always wanted, eh?

Aye,

maybe.

Well, him do that a wee dram? Yes!

Come on. Come on.

Come on.

What is going on in here?

This is some friends of mine.

Friends?

You know, the ones I was telling you
about, for Clyde Bank.

Ian, Christie and Davy. Hello.

You must be Robert's grandfather.

What are they doing in my kitchen?

I invited them.

That's very kind of you, but you didn't
tell me we were going to have visitors.

I didn't know they were coming.

Look, look anyway, you were out.

Right, we're away then.

That's a very good idea.

I thought you were supposed to be
studying. Look, I've been working all

afternoon. I think we're only here,
Robert. We'll be seeing you. No! No,

Listen!

They were just touring about in their
motorbikes.

Well, they've got this club. It's good,
eh? No, wait!

They thought this place might be good
for scrambling.

Scrambling?

What's scrambling?

You know, you'd drive more bikes over
rough countryside.

I think we might organise an event, eh?

There'll be good money in it.

Who have they?

And noise, and litter, and ruffians.

Ach, lad, you haven't the sense you were
born with. Just watch who you're

calling ruffians.

I'm asking you to leave.

Now. Out!

And you, see them off the premises.

Them and the machines.

And shut up the hens for the night,
which is what you ought to have done

already. What did your last slave dial?

talks in Kaesong today, and a further
meeting has been arranged for tomorrow.

The Indian Prime Minister has denied
that the Indian Army is...

Did you reckon there was motorcyclists
camped down the road?

Oh, is there?

Aye, just past them.

Looked like they were just getting up.

Making a fine old mess of the place,
were they?

Robert was with them.

Oh, is that where he is?

He went off with three of them last
night.

Friends of his from Clyde Bank, he said.

Motorcyclists. Have you two been having
another quarrel?

Nah, maybe.

We're here talking about motorbike
racing.

Said what a fine place it would be
around here.

Oh, shouldn't you worry about that,
Balbuie?

The state will never allow it. Now, the
lad's a fool.

Here, I can't have you doing my cleaning
up.

How did you sleep?

Ian snores like a pig. I heard that.

Aye, so did I.

I was sleeping like a baby.

Till someone woke me up, that is.

Sweet, you and Davy?

Mm -hm.

When did that happen?

Just after you left for college.

Time we were on our way.

I dumped

that.

This is grazing.

What? The sheep.

What are you going to do, Robert?

We're coming with something to get back
to Adolf.

You should come with us.

Go on, Robert.

Come with us.

It drives you daft when he's here.

It drives you daft when he's not here.

I know the feeling. He'll not take any
advice.

Did you?

When you were his age?

I wish I was his age again.

Don't we all?

But we have to learn by our own
mistakes.

You could try treating him more as an
adult.

Och, I do.

Oh, that's Forbes.

I'll be to him.

What? You lift here?

Aye.

Oh, what are you doing? Half a pound of
sugar, please.

And a quarter of tea.

Are they cutted creams?

He likes his cutted creams.

A pound?

Aye, that'll do.

Is he well?

He's fine.

I thought we'd be doing his messages.

And a quarter of best butter, please.

I'll do if he's down in the village
right now.

Robert, both her cycling friends went
roaring past.

They're camped down the road.

I don't want their tight round here.

What with the burglary up at Strathflair
House.

A lot of bicycles camping on the estate.

I don't know what the price is coming
to.

Aye, I heard about the burglary.

They were after the paintings,
seemingly.

The Major tackled them himself with a
gun. Aye, so you'd better watch

The sooner they're gone, the better I'll
be pleased.

How much dough are you?

One and eight pence ap 'ny.

Here's your message, Ed.

Think you'll find it all there?

Thanks.

Now, is there anything else I can do for
you?

No, no, you've enough to do.

Through enough.

Knew that Umberto's away.

Aye, you'll miss him.

Aye, like a nail in my boot.

Oh, by the way, that's one of the deep
pink tape, Naomi.

Something wrong?

No. No thanks to you.

Guess we're getting back, then. Aye.

You had.

And I've cleared up after your friends.

Ah, Mr. Forbes. Can we talk a little
bit, please?

I haven't had my lunch yet. No, no, no.
I'll be just a minute. You come to my

workshop.

Mr. Forbes, please.

It's important for me, eh? Aye.

All right, then, just for a minute or
two.

But it is very expensive.

Sure it will be.

Would a pit not do? No, no, it's not
professional enough.

Here, I need a ramp.

So I was thinking about a loan.

Where are you now?

Well, surely the bank's the place to go
for a loan, umberto?

No way.

I've tried the barracks.

And?

No security, no money.

So I was wondering, perhaps you could
invest in my business, eh?

Invest in your business?

Yes.

Well, I would, Umberto, I would, but
I've no money to

spare.

What would Mrs. Ford say if I went on?

Handing out loans to all and sundry.
It's bad enough with people trying to

groceries on tick.

But it's not all and sundry. It's me.

And it's a very good chance of work.

It's good work.

And, Mr. Forbes, it will pay so well.

Then you'll be able to buy your ramp
without a loan, won't you? But I can't

the job without the ramp.

And I can't get the ramp without the
money.

Believe me, son.

I see your problem, and I sympathize. I
do sympathize.

These are hard times.

You're back.

You all right?

Why wouldn't I be?

Don't know.

I'm sorry.

Sorry for upsetting you.

Oh, yeah.

So, where are your fine friends, eh?

Looking home.

They wanted me to go with them. Why
didn't you?

Would you have minded?

I did fine without you before. I can
manage without you now. I didn't ask

Give me my book.

I didn't know that you were interested
in airplanes.

There's a lot about me you don't know.

And there's a lot about me that you
don't know.

But I'm finding out.

Aye.

I like planes.

I thought flying was a miracle. My
father said I was daft.

Oh, noisy, dangerous machines.

Bit like motorbikes, eh?

Aye, maybe.

But I thought it must be a fine thing to
fly.

Like the birds.

It must be wonderful to look down at
this place.

At the land.

From up there.

They say you can see things that you
never noticed from down here.

But that's for you, not me now.

You can keep the wireless.

Thanks.

But we don't want motorbike racing here.

Can you not see what it might do to this
place?

Well, I can see that you want to keep it
just the way it always was.

Well, that's what this scrapbook's
about, isn't it?

I'm preserving it before it's too late,
before it's all destroyed, a hallway of

life gone.

It's happened in other places. It'll
happen here.

This is living history.

No, I think it's better if I come.

No, no, no, I can come, yes.

When? This afternoon.

Oh, yes.

Okay, this afternoon at your office.

Okay, bye -bye, Mrs. McInnes. Bye -bye.

When? When you went for your little
walk.

I can't remember.

Were you talking about me?

No. I thought you said you couldn't
remember.

I can't.

Flew too high, didn't he?

Too near the sun.

Bit of an Icarus. Yes.

Well, he's all right now.

Let me get this straight, Umberto.

You're planning on making some big
changes to the workshop?

No, no, not big.

Well, they seem fairly major to me.

What was once an old smithy, you now
want to turn into a vehicle repair shop.

garage, in fact.

Well, you can't expect me not to
develop, no?

But you must consult the estate before
considering any major expansion.

The estate?

But I listened from Mr. Forbes, eh?
Exactly.

Aminta Forbes only has the estate's
permission to sublet.

I'm trying to make a life for myself.

I'm trying to make my own business.

I think it's good for the estate. It's
good for me.

I'm doing well.

I think it would approve.

I can see how this forestry commission
work might seem very attractive, but,

Umberto, how can you contemplate
spending this much money?

Have you thought it through?

I think about it all the time.

Listen to me.

You've no security.

You've no long -term contract with the
Forestry Commission. You don't have the

volume of work to justify it.

Now, much as I'd like to help you, the
estate can't possibly consider making

loans like this. I'm sorry, but it just
can't.

Thank you anyway.

They'll be back, you know.

Not that far.

Do you think they enjoyed themselves?

I think they had a wonderful time.

Robert's back, I see.

Aye, man doing his fair share of the
work.

Glad to hear it.

Alec, have you heard anything about this
hydroelectric project?

Hydroelectric? No. Now, Forger was
talking about it the other day.

I haven't heard anything about it.

It'll likely just be rumours.

I hope.

It'd be best to ask the Major. He's the
one who'll know.

He's not likely to see.

Not just it, it's getting involved.

Ah, well, if there are decisions to be
made, let's hope that he makes the right

ones, eh?

For all of us, he will.

You're in my trust in Alec.

Folks like to do what sits in their own
pockets.

Not necessarily.

How's the legacy?

It's my experience anyway.

The root of all evil?

Nah, only the love of it.

Good day to you, Mr. Fabiani.

Oh, good day to you, Mr. Gaudi.

I hope you bring me good news, eh?

Oh, I just wondered what the situation
was with regards to the new equipment,

uh, ramp.

Oh, it is all under control. I just need
a little more time, that's all.

Well, a little time is what you'll get.

What is this?

Oh, it's for candles.

I see.

It's a work of art, eh?

You don't say.

And people pay good money for these
things? Oh, yes, but of course.

But this is not for sale. It's a gift
for a friend.

A lady.

She's a lucky girl.

Do you like it?

I make one for you? No, no, no.

Don't you waste your time doing works of
art for me.

I'd rather you concentrated in getting
this place organized.

Otherwise, we won't be able to consider
your tender.

There's a deadline, you see, and other
tenders have been submitted.

What is it we could eat here?

You've got some haggis, you've got some
black pudding, you've got some mealy

pudding. Oh, wonderful. It's all fresh
when we get home. Well, it won't do our

waistlines any good. Oh, never mind
about that. We'll give my love to Pam

Freddie. Ask them to ring or further
along the way.

And tell them to come up and have a
holiday.

Tell them everything.

They'd be very welcome, wouldn't they?
Oh, yes. We'll think they're taking in

hold of us, though.

Come on, my dear, would you?

Get here, please.

Give me the box.

Oh, good idea.

We've got a long, long drive ahead of
us. Yes, we have.

And I should keep this on your knees if
I were you. Right here.

Bye -bye, darling. Lovely to see you
again.

Oh, come on. Cheer up. We'll be back in
no time. And thanks, Alec.

It's been a wonderful, wonderful
holiday. God bless you.

Bye -bye. Goodbye, darling.

Take care of yourself.

Take care of her, Alec. I will. Bye
-bye.

It's all been lovely. Thank you.

Have a safe journey.

I know you're sorry to see them go, but
it'll be nice to have the place to

ourselves again.

Get back to our own bed.

Do you have a minute, Andrew?

Well, um, not really. If I don't tackle
this summer school stuff now, it'll

never get done.

What do you think?

Well, that's yours, isn't it?

Very good.

Lovely.

Come on, then. What's the problem?

Well, it's this letter from the hydro
board.

We'll have to reply.

You don't have to commit yourself, but
they need a reply of some sort. Yes, but

not just this moment, surely.

Andrew, you put it off all the time.
Rumours are going around the village

it now.

Are they?

Well, gossip.

But the tenants are getting worried.

Yes, well, they're not the only ones.

You're going to have to make a tough
decision about this one, Andrew.

The Hydra board are genuinely interested
in Loch Riesgen.

Have you looked at the outline plans
yet?

I've looked at them, yes.

And I don't like what I see.

This will be bad for Strathblair, Flora.

It altered the entire estate.

But it might make economic sense.

Off the thumb, perhaps.

But I have a responsibility to the whole
community.

Well, you'll have to make a decision
soon, Andrew.

You can't put it off indefinitely.

Can we talk?

Can you not see I'm busy?

You have to wait.

I'm waiting.

What are you all done up for like a
dog's death?

I was trying to look nice.

For you.

For me?

Well, don't just stand there watching me
work.

Okay, I go in and prepare tea, eh?

I'm making tea, eh?

So, to what do with the pleasure of this
visit?

I was out for a promenade.

Oh, that's why you've got your glad rags
on, is it?

Oh, well, I think this calls for
something a wee bit stronger.

Why are you here?

I wanted to talk.

To talk?

What about?

I wanted to say that I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I've not been very good to you.

I wanted to set up on my own, and I
could not miss that chance.

I couldn't be a normal on my life.

I left you in the lurch, so I'm sorry.

Very kind of you to tell me, thank you.

You don't believe me? Of course I
believe you.

No, I don't believe you.

Actions speak louder than words.

Present.

I brought you a present.

Umberto.

Go on, open it.

I made it.

I know.

I saw them in the workshop.

It's for candles, huh? I know what it's
for.

What am I supposed to do with it?

Candlelight dinners. Oh, right.

Of course.

I miss you, Femi.

Do you now?

Yes, you don't know how much.

Every time I'm telling to myself, where
is Femi, what is she doing?

Every time something happens to me, I
want to tell it to you, but you're not

there.

I'm sure you're not short of people to
talk to, Umberto.

Yes, but it's not the same.

And now you have no time for me.

Oh, aye, and you had plenty of time for
me when you were chasing every piece of

scart and strath player.

But I was always thinking about you.

Femi, how can you live without me?

live very well.

I'm managing fine, Umberto.

It doesn't need you to get stuck in the
same old rut.

A rut?

There's all sorts of possibilities open
to me now.

Why don't we just sell up and leave?

Leave?

Leave Carnbar?

No.

I don't believe that.

Uh -huh.

What's wrong?

Did you not find the right station?

No. Mine was better.

Oh, would you listen to that?

No, leave it.

It's a good record, though.

You'll be deaf before you're 30.

Oh, you're not going to that thing
again.

Aye!

What do you plan to do with this thing?

I can't stay in here forever.

I know, I know.

I was thinking this would look good in
it.

Along to your grandmother.

What do you think?

I think you're daft if you want to know.

Why? It's a perfectly sensible thing to
do.

Build your own coffin before you go.

I've tested it out, you know. You've
what?

It's a perfect fit.

Mind you.

I'd a bit bother getting back out again,
but it's nice and comfortable.

Give it a try.

No, no thanks.

That's what folks always used to do,
make their own coffins in preparation

death. It's a timely reminder of
mortality.

Do you need one?

Besides, this way, there'll be no worry,
and it'll be less expense for you when

I'm gone.

You should be grateful to me.

Do you think that's all I worry about?

What?

Must have a low opinion of me.

Well, I know fine well you do. This just
goes to prove it. How so?

Do you think that's all I care about,
the price of your coffin?

I don't want you to die.

Where does that leave me, eh?

Nothing. Nobody.

I don't want you to be reminded of that,
and I sure as hell don't want to see

you every time I walk into this shed.

All that work, eh?

What will we do with the bets?

Firewood.

We'll get a good few weeks' candle out
of that lot.
