All language subtitles for Acceptable Risk S01E06 720p x264 RB58

Did the gates of mercy and the gates of
justice, Sarah?

Did the gates of what?

I have just attended the funeral of my
head of security.

He tried to intervene in an illegal
surveillance operation carried out by an

employee of your embassy.

I came to resolve this matter quietly.

And what are you offering?

I've been thinking of taking some time
off.

There's this one file, though. You can
have it if you want it. Follow it where

it goes.

To whoever it goes to.

We received a call concerning you and
your children.

A report has been made. You don't have
to give me a name.

I know.

You bugged Lee's car. You bugged
Claire's car.

Your real target was Hoffman. Did you
bug his car?

Yes. You can tell me where he was last
night?

If I can get the file from Mrs. Manning.
How much do you think she really knows

about that deal with Kieron?

She has no idea.

Not yet.

Let's put a bottle of champagne on the
table.

We'd need somebody who could get inside
information.

Obvious person to go to was Kieron,
right? He was head of Pure then. Kieron

worked for you on this deal.

It's been a great story, yeah.

All that's missing is the big finish.

I'm a ghost, he says.

Ghosts have to make amends. That's why
they come back.

Then he walked to the edge.

I've got to go and do my job. Are you
going to be all right?

No.

Yeah.

Still taking it in.

He said something just before he jumped
about why Kieron might have been killed,

why that might lead to who killed Lee.

Who lives in it, too.

It's just what I was scared of.

Patrick Mulvaney makes one last
headline.

All eyes had to be on him when he was
alive and everyone has to be talking

him now that he's dead.

I have to face my sister.

That's where we'd go to celebrate
signing a new act.

Making another million.

He'd wave his arm as they looked down
there at the hour with all of us. You'd

just have to reach out and take it.

And the champagne.

I bet he ordered the most expensive one
on the menu and that he didn't pay for

it.

I'm expecting the bill.

I have a bottle here.

This will be in celebration, by the way.

Getting rid of him for good.

Not grieving.

It's Patrick Mulvaney who managed to
exit this life the way he lived it.

On his own terms and causing the maximum
amount of damage to everyone else.

You told me about the deal, Nuala.

You know which one.

I can't understand why you didn't come
straight to me three years ago.

And then what?

You worked for them in legal.

You'd have gone straight to the company
and refused to let Ciarán in on any deal

we were making.

You'd have had to be wider than the
snow, above reproach. That's who you

Sarah. You can't help yourself.

You love that firm.

That is why you're fighting it so hard,
like you've been betrayed or jilted.

You'd have put your job and their good
opinion of you before the chance of

making so much money you could paper the
walls with it.

And if there was a conflict of
interest... Patrick always said, isn't

death... Conflict of interest.

He did.

He said it again to me just before he
jumped.

It must have been so horrible to have
seen that.

I won't try to excuse myself.

I had a secret, and I kept it a secret,
and if that got Kieran killed... It did.

We have a witness now.

So I don't know how long it's going to
take you to forgive me, or if you

Patrick said that Ciarán drank because
he couldn't stand the thought that I

earned more money than him, that I was
the breadwinner.

Do you think Ciarán had a problem with
that?

Other people's marriage.

Maybe you had a front row seat at mine.

Did you?

I think Ciarán was more complicated than
that. That's what I think.

Most of us are.

Me and the pills, that wasn't simple.

Took five shrinks and 20 ,000 euros to
sort that out. Yeah, we're through with

budging the truth and giving half
answers, Nuala. Is that what you think

going on between us?

You're very strong, Sarah.

You were too strong for Ciarán.

He lent on you, he relied on you, and
people resent having to do that. I'm

sorry, but there it is.

When he found the chance to stand on his
own feet, got him killed.

I didn't know that for sure until you
put La Hanna at the lock that night.

And it did go straight back to the firm.

To James Aloysius Darrow Mulvaney.

He wasn't a Patrick at all.

Even that was faked.

Written in pieces and good written.

Do you want to go there?

I want to see it.

See what all the fuss was about.

I can place Hoffman at the cottage the
night Kilbride died.

He was meeting a politician named Morris
O 'Hanlon and somebody else.

My contact at the Gardie thinks it's a
high -ranking officer in the police.

I don't know yet what they said at the
meeting, but with Sarah Manning's file,

can make a pretty good case for
conspiracy.

And these jokers, they are going to go
to jail for decades.

And this firm is going to be stripped of
everything it owns.

Offices, plants, airplanes, everything.

There won't be any case.

I'm closing you down.

Today.

Do you know how many lawyers that firm
has?

You're either going to lie to them and
risk federal penalties for perjury, or

tell the truth about your illicit
activities here.

Lee Manning's widow can provide concrete
physical evidence.

that will stand up in court. The Justice
Department will not bring a case

against that firm in a million years
now.

You will go home and report that no case
can be made against Gambina Fisher or

its officers or employees.

Take them down and shred them.

Take every scrap of paper out of there,
too.

In case your attention wandered, that is
where your career is now.

First time I drove past it, I stood on
the brake.

Location.

Motorway access, airport access, docks
access.

Zoned for industrial or commercial use.

Got everything.

Wouldn't take a genius to guess how much
it could be worth once it was

developed. All in the bulldozers
flattened those buildings and you're

I brought Patrick to see it and he got
it at once.

Would have been the deal of a lifetime.

Why go to him?

You're divorced.

Where else could I go to?

I didn't have the money.

He still had the contacts and he was a
great deal maker.

He used to say he could sell athlete's
foot powder to a man with two wooden

legs. He wasn't far wrong.

What was this place?

I don't know.

It was the location I was interested in.
What was on it wasn't important.

Not to me, anyhow.

I signed a contract saying I'd make half
of anything we made reselling it as a

finder's fee.

Patrick took over from then on.

And then we hit the roadblock at your
firm and...

We brought Ciarán in.

He'd have been in for half a million.

Well, we couldn't make the deal happen.
Of course, the line went dead.

Nobody wants to know past it.

Can I help you girls?

I was just wondering what this place is.

It's private property. No trespassing.
That's what it is.

Can't you read?

Or did you leave your glasses behind?

We're on this side of the fence, aren't
we? You being funny?

No, we're leaving that to you.

Lula, he's just doing his job.

Do the owners ever come round?

I wouldn't know who they are.

And if I did, I couldn't tell you.

I'm leaving.

You're not a real guard, you know?

You're just playing at it like a big
kid.

Lula, please.

If I showed you a photograph of
somebody, would you be able to tell me

been here?

Even if I did, I couldn't tell you.

Not you.

And not your lippy pal here with the bad
attitude.

Have you got the message?

Let's go.

I'm Sarah Manning, by the way.

In case you need to know.

Sorry, my big mouth.

The poor, sad little man was just trying
to do his job.

A toy guard with a uniform, two -sided,
too big.

His neck didn't even touch his collar.
Did you notice?

He took the license plate number down.

Somewhere in that notebook would be easy
to... That'd be how Hoffman knew he was

out there investigating him.

Wouldn't that mean that Hoffman will
know that we were there?

I hope so.

I need him to know that I'm still coming
after him, that I have cards to play,

too.

Charles Duquesne, would it be possible
for you to come and see me before I go

back to Montreal?

You're leaving us?

I regret that my time in your beautiful
but sometimes dangerous city is almost

out of hand.

I'm sorry to hear it.

You must have got used to that borrowed
office by now, figured out how to work

the desk lamp.

We, um, have found the man who killed
your husband.

understand how vital this contract is
not only to our operations in Ireland

to the company as a whole.

That is why I can assure everyone at
head office that I have personally dealt

with all remaining obstacles.

Our friends here in Ireland have assured
me that we can rely on their continued

support. We are now ready to break
ground at the proposed site for our new

plant.

We know Hoffman killed Kieron because he
asked too many questions about that

property deal.

He used Lahan to do it.

And your second husband begins to
investigate that death and Hoffman

that he has to die too in Montreal.

Hoffman allows Nicholas Esser to learn
that Lee will be delivering a file which

will destroy him.

Lahan...

Make sure that Esther knows the name of
somebody who can solve this problem for

him. Somebody who can get the file and
leave no witness. Lee never gets to

deliver the file.

And then Hoffman realizes that Lehan has
to go too.

So he uses his background as a chemist
to make that happen.

No one is left.

They connect it all back to that first
link in the chain.

To Hoffman himself.

Who I regret to say seems to be
untouchable. Untouchable?

Okay, he didn't pull the trigger, but he
set it all in motion. He put the pieces

in place.

Didn't you say we know who killed Lena?

Detective Byrne provided the information
which led to Lee's killer through his

family connections in Dublin.

When Montreal tried to arrest him, he
decided to fight.

ends here. It can't end there. I won't
let it end there.

Is there anything you can do?

My mission was only to establish how
deeply compromised the minister might

How far he laid himself open to
potential blackmail. Blackmail that your

was involved in.

You accept that now?

I part two.

But that doesn't mean their lives can
just be thrown away.

That he, he sets it up and then goes
free.

That is exactly what will happen and you
should be very careful, Mrs. Manning.

He's a killer.

If he feels you threaten him.

He dropped his guard because he wanted
to get back to me.

Yes.

Soon away, I got him killed.

You see that bit of the canal there?

Where my first husband was murdered?

Every time I walk past a canal lock or
along the

quayside or any bit of water, and it's
hard to avoid in Dublin, I remember.

Like I remember Lee six or seven times a
day when I see him walking towards me

or... or feel his hand on me.

If you think I'm going to let this go
and not get justice for the two of them

and for everybody else that he's just
got rid of... Be careful with this, ma

'am.

You can expect no assistance from us.

If you go further, you do so on your
own.

Haven't I always been?

Stairs ready to give you everything.

Hotel receipt, plane reservations.

All the evidence you need to prove her
husband traveled the world fixing

contracts for that company.

Everything you need to make the case.

There is no case.

But you said that... The FBI is no
longer interested in trying to figure

a man named Lee Manning was found dead
in the street in Montreal.

It's dead and buried.

I've been recalled, Detective.

At least you can give me the evidence
that you had, you know, to link it to

Dublin, to the firm, to Hoffman.

You're not listening.

There is no more evidence.

They put this case in a sack and they
threw it off the end of the pier.

Nobody's going to try to bring it back
because it's not just the money that's

threatened. It's all of those
politicians here and in Washington who

that money.

You put a tracking device on Hoffman's
car.

At least you can tell me where that car
is now, you know?

Then at least I have physical evidence
to link him to Deirdre Kilbride's

I know exactly where and when that bug
died.

In a scrapyard north of Dublin.

I saw the face of the man who put a
bullet in my husband today.

I saw the face of the man who told him
to do it.

I keep seeing Hoffman's face.

Because he's behind both of them.

And there's nothing anybody can do about
it.

You're stuck.

Duquesne's going back to Montreal. The
FBI's lost the case.

I'm out of ideas.

Think about that.

I pushed O 'Hanlon really hard.

If I keep at it, he might crack. He
might give something up.

He might know the Hoffman killed Deirdre
Kilbride. He's a politician, Eimear.

He can easily find a way of wriggling
out a face in fact.

Unless you can put Hoffman there.

Unless he cracked too, and what are the
chances of that?

I can go back to Nolte.

With what?

He told you not to go back to him until
you have proof.

Proof, not a guess. Not a wild swing of
the bat.

Evidence that when Hoffman left that
cottage, he ran her down and made sure

wasn't dead.

Until then.

He's like O 'Hanlon.

He can tell himself that there's still a
chance it was somebody else.

He must have slipped up somewhere.

There must be something that leads us
back down. Yeah, but you won't find it.

You know you won't.

He'll have taken care of that like he's
taken care of everything else. He'll run

rings around the Gardaí. I'm not letting
it go.

I'm not letting him go, I promise. Oh,
is that an official promise? What are

those words?

I'm going back to Berlin now.

My work here is completed.

I was investigating a possible national
security threat to a leading German

politician who may have exposed himself
to blackmail.

It's not a case of commercial
wrongdoing.

And what about Nicholas Esser? He gets
away?

Just like Hoffman.

You know how these things are handled?

A phone call, lunch or dinner.

A suggestion that he quietly resign in
the next few months, spend some time

his family.

A couple of years keeping his head down,
and then what? He's back in power?

That is possible.

That doesn't bother you?

Bismarck once said that government is
like making sausages.

Even if you like the end result, don't
look too closely at the process.

Goodbye, Mr. Duquesne.

Wait.

You forgot that.

Those cannot be mine.

They are copies of a document, yes, but
even copies must carry a serial number.

I didn't see one there.

You decide what to do with them.

Can I write something for the service?

Instead of saying it out loud.

Amy, you can even read it out.

If you want to say it inside, in your
heart, you can.

Do you want to say something?

Do I even have to be there?

You have to be there.

Doesn't he?

Let me talk to Eamon alone, Rose,
please.

You don't have to go.

No.

I won't bring him back if I do.

And he wasn't my real dad anyway.

He wasn't your flesh and blood now.

Remember when you were getting bullies
at school?

Because you liked to dance?

Remember Lee told you that you have a
gift?

And they were just being jealous?

He didn't stop there, did he?

He shows you a couple of things to do if
they hit you again.

The very next day.

Flatten three of them.

Wipe the floor with them.

I did.

Yeah.

And have they left you alone since?

Actually, other kids come to me and ask
me to look after them.

Lee wasn't your real dad.

Whatever that means.

But he was so proud of you.

Go do your homework.

But remember, I'll still love you either
way.

Whether you go to the service or not.

I know what that place was.

Hey, you all right there? Can I help
you? Hey.

I need to know if you have a particular
license plate in that book of yours.

They fired the last guy in this patrol
before me just for leaving five minutes

early. I can't risk that.

Right.

Do you like this job?

And you have your license to work in the
security industry after passing your

basic guarding skills, VTech Level 4
award, yeah?

Or did you just slip the man hiring you
a couple of hundred to fill in the forms

for you?

They go out fair and square.

So you don't mind me going back to
headquarters and pulling files?

What do you want?

I need you to take a walk over there for
five minutes.

Check the fence.

When you do, you leave your book on the
dashboard. That's all.

And that'll be that?

As far as you're concerned, yeah.

And you let nobody know I was here,
okay?

I went through Patrick's old files, the
ones I had dumped on me when he went on

the run. There was a lot of junk, press
cuttings, things like that.

I found the business stuff in the end,
the property stuff about that piece of

land and the buildings on it.

The freehold is still held by Gumbiner
Fisher. They bought it from a charity

years ago who ran it as the Gates of
Mercy.

The Gates of Mercy.

It's a home for pregnant and unwed
mothers.

It's been around 100 or so years.

The gates of mercy and the gates of
justice.

What?

Barry Lahan used those phrases the night
he came to see me.

He was testing me to see how much I
knew.

Lee was seen by security at the property
on two occasions.

The last was three days before Montreal.

The private security authority says it
has a long -term contract to secure the

premises.

They're paying out thousands a month for
round -the -clock patrol.

All for a place that's fallen to the
ground.

When they made a song and dance about
the problems they had finding a site for

their new plant.

I found this.

Weren't it a clone?

25 years ago.

There was a missing persons inquiry
concerning it a few months before that.

I know her.

I'm told Jimmy Nolte is out.

Early retirement.

One of the finest men ever to wear the
uniform.

I've no idea what hand you had in that
or whether the shenanigans the two of

got up to left him with no choice.

But I'll make sure that your career
stops dead, Eimear Byrne.

I still have friends in Phoenix Park who
can put a nail in your coffin. Mr.

Nolte got dragged into... Chief
Superintendent Nolte to you.

Chief Superintendent Nolte got dragged
into the affairs of the firm I used to

work for.

My first husband and my second husband
were there too.

They were killed because they got too
close to something it wants to hide.

He handed the file back to me.

He'll help where he can. I have his word
on that. It is a major investigation

going back several years and I would
value your assistance on it as I value

It all leads back to the Gates of Mercy.

Why did it close down? Was it to do with
the missing persons case you were

working just before?

The Gates of Mercy?

You were there.

That case was months before it shut up
shop.

One of the staff had left it one night,
and she never came back.

You never found her?

No.

I don't want to continue this.

You may have forced Jimmy Nolte to work
with you, but not me.

I can make this official.

I am in charge of a wide -ranging
inquiry into several suspected murderers

committed over a number of years with an
apparent connection to that place, and

now, potentially, one of your unsolved
cases.

You can answer now or be required to
answer.

Say that again. You know what I said.

What it means.

Don't make me go there, please. I took
you under my wing when you came into the

guards. Perhaps I was thought too well.

It was a routine missing persons case.

It meant that I had to check on her
place of work. I did. There was no hint

there was anything wrong there.

Yeah, but it closed down overnight,
months afterwards.

I wouldn't know about that.

It was a place for women who nobody else
would take in.

It looked after the outcasts and their
children, and it didn't judge them. In a

country where that judgment came a
little too easy for a woman who'd made a

slip. It did a great job.

First -class people, first -class
facilities, a model for what that kind

place should be.

Did the name of Gumbiner Fisher ever
come up?

No. You're sure?

I'm not in the witness box.

And as far as I know, you're not a
practicing lawyer.

They bought the land. They have the
freehold. There's a 24 -hour guard on

place still.

What are they hiding?

Were you not listening?

Nobody had anything to hide. There were
decent people there, as well as rogues.

People who spent their lives caring,
trying to build things up, not knocking

them down.

I'm leaving now.

Unless you have means of keeping me
here, I've told you all I know.

I won't forget this, Emerburn. I didn't
want to do it this way.

I'm going to see my friend Jimmy Nolte
now.

A good man.

Whatever you think he did, he didn't
deserve to end his career this way.

You went against the code.

Still an open, missing persons inquiry.

That might be just enough to get us over
the fence.

See what they're hiding in there.

I shall take a small vacation before the
funeral service for Miss Kilbride.

Please arrange for my plane to be
serviced and ready and alert the staff

villa of my arrival.

Dr. Hoffman, Sarah Manning is here.

What should I tell her?

Mrs. Manning, an unexpected pleasure.

You will not use my children as a weapon
against me. Whatever fight you have

with me, they'll be kept out of it.

I have no idea what you're talking
about.

This is a copy of the report made by the
German Federal Institute for Drugs and

Medical Devices.

It's been kept under wraps for years.
It's a little bit like the information

used Lee to deliver to swing contracts
your way.

This time it's about you.

Put together by other people who are
used to looking into secrets.

If you are recording this conversation,
I still insist that your allegations are

baseless and sincerely plead with you to
get professional help.

You started out as a research chemist,
but very soon showed where your real

talents were.

Management.

You were good at fixing things.

When you couldn't make a deal happen
that would keep both sides happy, you

the hatchet man, too.

25 years ago, they flew you to Ireland.

There was a problem.

Who was going to take a corporate star
like you to sort it out?

A few years previously...

They had a new drug in the pipeline for
cancer in children.

It needed to run clinical trials in the
real world, outside the laboratory.

It looked for somewhere the regulatory
regime was a little looser.

What would be ideal would be to have
people to experiment on where there

wouldn't be a song and dance if too many
infants, babies, young children died.

At the Gates of Mercy home, say.

Those trials were conducted with the
approval of the Irish authorities.

Nobody should have been asked to take
part without having the risk explained

given a chance to back out. That's what
went wrong there.

It's why you took one look and had the
company buy the place, then close it

and scatter all the staff who might know
something about it, like how many young

children died.

Otherwise a lot of people's careers
would have been destroyed.

They might even have gone to jail.

The company might not have survived.

This was 25 years ago.

What you call a report is a series of
unsupported allegations.

You still own the property.

And it's guarded 24 hours a day.

to find out what you were hiding there.

It must have been something worth
killing for.

I'm flying to Spain shortly, a few days
vacation.

When I come back, I will resign and
become a scientist again.

I sincerely believe that I still have
things to offer as a medical scientist.

I admit nothing, of course, but I would
return from Spain in a different

capacity.

For the rest of my days here, I would
make amends for any mistakes I've made.

In a distress I've caused.

Distress?

I want to justice.

At least that place can give me the
answers I need.

Think what you may be about to do.

The consequences for hundreds, maybe
thousands of children and their parents.

Don't jeopardize the future.

You're a brilliant man.

I believe you could do what you say. The
greater good. I get it.

Something you could ask a saint to go
along with.

I'm not a saint.

There's something wrong there.

That must have been with the dormitory
fire.

What are we looking for exactly?

Even with this I wish I knew.

Years of experiments.

Dozens of trials.

Dead end after dead end. But they kept
trying.

Found someone else to allow their trial
to be used.

Told them how much good would come from
it or told them nothing at all.

It's just a file.

Nothing to back it up, nothing to say it
really happened.

Allegations without facts.

Guesses without proof.

What's that?

There's no main drainage.

Must be the septic tank.

This is what we have so far.

There is going to be more.

A lot more.

A few dozen bodies aged a few days to
five or six years.

It's going to be impossible to determine
the exact cause of death or give them

names.

An adult in her early to mid -twenties.

Detective Heffernan's missing person.

Who saw something she shouldn't.

Was going to make a fuss, blow the
whistle.

Derail the fix that Hoffman had spent so
much time and money putting in.

Which makes her the first person he
killed.

And after her, he had to keep on
killing.

Ciarán.

Lee.

Lahan. Kilbride.

Then me.

Some wreckage from the small private jet
registered and piloted by the chief

executive of one of Ireland's leading
pharmaceutical companies was found in

waters off Wexford today.

Air, sea and shore searches, coordinated
by the Irish Coast Guard, are

continuing for the missing pilot, Hans
Werner Hoffman from Gumbiner Fisher.

The plane was last seen on radar some
six hours ago, and it is not yet clear

he was travelling alone.

In another statement, the company
announced a wide -ranging review into

findings at the site of the Gates of
Mercy home, but emphasised that these

events occurred almost three decades ago
and involved personnel who are no

longer affiliated with Gumbiner Fisher.

They have pledged full cooperation with
any inquiry.

The company also confirmed today that it
will be completing the multi -million

euro plant outside Dublin.

This is... Great news for every Irish
man and every Irish woman, especially

those of us with our country's best
interests at heart.

It guarantees a long -term future with
good schools for our kids and good jobs

waiting for them at the end.

The guard's here.

We ready?

The alarm.

Not living like that anymore.

Afraid of my own shadow.

I got into this to get one question
answered.

You killed Lee.

I got most of the answer, not all of it.

Maybe I have to settle for what I have
because I need to get on with my life

now.

I still don't know who that is.

The man who shared my bed.

Where he was from.

Whether one day he would have opened up
to me.

Told me everything he felt he had to
keep back.

Whether he was a good man or a crook.

Or a crook and a good man.

Maybe you have to let it go, Sarah.

Find a way to do that.

Do I have a choice?

Remember I asked you to take care of
Rose and Eamon while we went away for

weekend? I do.

I got my dates wrong.

I think, I'm not sure...

It's early days, but... Oh, my God.

Sarah, are you really?

Yes.

Oh, God.

It would have been nice to have had the
chance.

heaven.
