Original subtitles

Maybe you're right, Grace. Maybe it's all just too much.

You don't work for the Ginleys, do you?

They work for you. They're bringing the peelers right to your door.

You need me.

Mo McIntyre. We as an organisation

may withdraw our objection to his bail.

He was there when Gerry was killed.

Why are we even considering this?

Get me an ambulance, Tommy!

Shane's been stabbed at the top of the leg with glass.

There's lots of blood. OK.

Let's go. Trauma room one.

The blood supply to his leg was cut off for a long time.

We're not confident that Shane will regain the use of it.

George McClelland, you're under arrest on suspicion of rape

and making, distributing and possession

of indecent images of children.

He made the transfer to the dissidents.

He knows everything. Do you think he's going to talk?

I will fix this.

When you get back, we should talk. Yeah, OK.

They're going to take him out. Him and anyone who's with him,

and they want me to tip them off.

Do what Fogerty tells you to do.

This is C4, Special Operations.

There is an active threat.

What should I do?

Will someone tell me what to do?

Stevie.

Stevie!

Air's online. Tac Ad?

Two teams, four minutes out.

165, HMSU are on their way.

You must stick to the intended route.

Do not arouse suspicion.

They need to put the foot down and get out of there.

The target car's just a spotter.

Real threat's up ahead somewhere.

4-4, give me eyes on the intended route to 67 Sunblane Road.

Zoom in for me, please.

And again.

Stationary van. See it?

That has to be it.

There's two vehicles?

That's your target for red team.

Blue team on the spotter.

They're mobile.

Shit!

Tac Ad? Two minutes.

That's too long.

There's a school on the route ahead. Kids everywhere.

You need to get off this road.

We cannot go barrel-to-barrel here.

I'm changing the route. We're re-routing.

It's on me. What?

Turn right onto Wadebury.

They're heading straight towards them.

They have no choice.

But you said... Constable Ellis.

Grace.

Make the turn.

Log that.

Log my command.

Ma'am. You said we shouldn't arouse suspicion.

165...

Make the turn, 165. We have you.

Tac Ad? Visual and spotter.

HMSU blue team, hard left

and hard stop spotter car on my mark.

Get down, get down!

Red lead. Hard exit onto Wadebury on immediate hard-stop target.

What's going on? Sean! Get down!

Keep going, 165.

Emergency stop on my mark.

What? Emergency... What?

165, I need you to perform an emergency stop on my mark.

HMSU, on that signal, proceed.

Yeah, yeah. Confirmed.

Come on.

Ready?

Ready?

Stop!

TYRES SCREECH

Fuck!

Get down!

Oh, my God!

Armed police! Turn the engine off!

Turn the engine off! Turn the engine off!

HMSU, report.

Police!

Lay there. Get on your knees.

Get down! Do not move!

Get down! Put your hands... Get down!

Against the wall.

HMSU, report.

We have control.

SIRENS APPROACH

The solicitor?

Yeah.

Why did you pitch him when you did?

Colly, I'm not stupid. We're withdrawing our objection

to the release of Mo McIntyre.

We shouldn't be talking about this.

We have to. Gamekeeper.

That's the code name.

And that's what you should use when you're referring to her.

And only that. She's a drug dealer.

And a life-saver.

That's the game, Helen.

Always has been, always will be.

IN BACKGROUND: HMSU to secure.

Let's get a perimeter here.

Send in the TSGs. Copy that.

Right. Let's go.

DOOR OPENS

Well, we got there.

Just about.

Fogerty will know it was me.

I'm a dead man.

Well, that depends.

On what?

Whether I get to him first.

Last time Shane and I were in here,

we were saying goodbye to his mother.

He was 12.

He never said that... He wouldn't.

Neither would I.

We should have talked about it more, you know?

Mm.

I should have done things differently.

Because...

...when I got the call today, the whole world just went dark.

Just like the last time.

And I thought...

..."I can't do this again."

He's awake.

I can go. No, please.

Does he know about the...?

Yes. He knows.

Oh, thank God.

Oh!

Hi. Hi.

Thanks.

No sweat.

Thanks.

How's Shane?

He's out of immediate danger.

The Police Ombudsman's in my office.

No, ma'am. I'm sorry. I... I can't do this today.

I can't. Tommy...

That phone that you recovered from the bar?

The cyber team are up on it. They're having a field day.

So...

...he's going to be released.

They've had the bail hearing, yeah.

I don't know what to say to you.

You could tell me why.

I'm so sorry.

Hello, son.

Constable Foster.

Please, take a seat.

I have just been informed

about what happened to Constable Bradley.

And I'm so sorry.

I was hoping to inform you both in person today

that I have discontinued this investigation.

What?

It's over.

Why?

George McClelland didn't file this complaint.

His solicitor did.

So?

He filed the complaint at 8am...

...but Mr McClelland didn't regain consciousness

until 11am.

So... let's just call it a procedural issue.

So that's it? For both of us?

That's it.

Constable.

Constable Bradley.

He fought very hard to take this on his own shoulders.

I thought you should know that.

He also said some things that gave me pause for thought.

The men...

...talking to each other in this group chat.

The way they talk.

About women.

About drugs.

As if nothing will ever touch them.

As if the law is for little people.

It really, really pisses me off.

ZIPS BAG

What about my family?

We're taking them somewhere safe.

I think it's time you start to talk, George.

They have just come after you. They won't stop.

You need to give us everything, now.

Where's Grace? She's in this one.

Come on.

GRACE SOBS

You need to get in there.

No.

No.

We need to talk.

OK. Yeah?

OK. OK.

OK.

Come on.

Look, Stevie, I'm so sorry.

Grace... Stevie, you don't have to say anything.

No, I do. I do.

Grace, I was stuck.

I was stuck because...

Because I thought it was safe.

I thought we could just do the job,

go home, be happy.

But that's not how it works, is it?

There's no such thing as being safe.

Not here,

but also not anywhere.

It's just not how things work.

Things are always going to change...

...and this could all be gone in a moment.

And I guess the answer to that...

...is not to try and run from it,

but to realise how fucking class it isn't.

I am so sorry.

You know I should have told you.

I should have told you ages ago.

Grace, it doesn't matter.

Nothing else matters.

Not the past, not the future.

This. This is what matters.

Unless you've got more mad shit to tell me.

Dickhead. I know, right?

Go get 'em.

I love you.

I love you too.

REPORTER: Police have described the incident

here in South Belfast as an anti-terrorist operation.

It's understood that four men have been arrested

and taken to the Serious Crime Suite.

It's not yet known if there's a connection

between this incident and the recent foiled attack

against a senior police officer in the East...

TV CLICKS OFF

KNOCK AT DOOR

Come in.

These men who've been arrested. Will they talk?

They'll do 20 years before they talk to the cops.

But George McClelland will.

Listen, Dana, none of this leads back to you.

But it does to you.

When we did this deal, I asked for discretion,

but what I got was escalation.

George won't even make it to trial.

But Tina's lad Mo, he got bail this morning.

So?

So it's her.

She has been feeding info to the cops.

That's her reward.

She'll meet.

She has to.

She knows that it's her or the lad.

Do what you have to do.

OK, I've just been talking to the office.

We're talking about getting you moved to a specialist hospital

in Dublin. You what?

It's a private place,

and they specialise in this sort of thing.

If we can arrange a private ambulance...

Da, stop, please. Shane, you need to get

the best care possible. I'm getting it.

And you need to listen to me.

Right, I'm just going to... Annie, it's fine.

You need to listen to me just for once.

This, it's over.

All of this. Well, obviously it's over.

We're going to get you better,

and then you need to come back to me.

To us.

To live out the life that you're supposed to live.

I just need you to come...

...home.

Yeah.

I know.

See you later.

Jesus.

This place is in your name.

Huh?

Come here.

OK.

The house in Spain.

These are the apartments. Belfast. London.

Manchester. What's going on?

Just fucking listen.

These are the bank accounts - numbers at the top.

You have access.

There's two cards. PINs on the front of them.

Mam, what the fuck is going on?

Will you just listen to me? I don't have much time.

There's a good chance you'll be acquitted at trial.

What? The barrister says

they'd be lucky to get a conviction on joint enterprise.

So when that happens, you'll need all this.

I'm going to send you somebody

to look after you until the trial,

and you do exactly what they tell you to do,

and then, if you get off, you get out.

You just get off this island forever.

But Ma, hang on. What about you?

PHONE RINGS

All right? Tina.

We need to meet.

Yeah? Why's that?

Talk about the future.

What if I say no? It's you...

...or your young fella.

In prison, out of prison - doesn't really matter to us.

Now, I am going to send you a location.

Six o'clock tomorrow morning.

You come alone.

Yeah?

Ma.

PHONE ALERT Ma!

Have you no home to go to?

How is he?

He's been better.

Can we visit him?

I'd give it a day or two.

So what's this?

The photo Shane took from George's phone.

Are yo use not supposed to delete these?

We did, but they gave them back.

Who did?

Not the ice queen.

Oh, my God, that's...

That's so fucking Shane.

Yeah.

Yeah, it is.

So what's next in your master plan?

Well, for now, all roads lead to Fogerty.

So Gamekeeper's going to set up a meeting with him.

We scoop them both, make it look like we got lucky.

She gets released. He doesn't.

She's agreed to that? She will.

But we know he's not the one running things.

No, but he's going to tell me who is,

because I'm going to turn him.

You have it all worked out, don't you?

It's my job to have it all worked out.

We should go home.

These guys are wankers.

Are all men like this in group chats?

I don't really do group chats.

"Richard Robinson's joined the group."

Could that be the Chief Super's husband?

Oh, my God.

Fuck.

DOOR OPENS

You OK?

I'm clocking off.

I'll be back later.

Just try not to worry.

DOOR CLOSES

Oh, Jesus, Da. Wise up.

Just saying.

So what would I do, then?

In the business.

Well, er, there's an opening coming up in the Newry office.

Start there.

Learn the ropes.

Three or four years, you'll be doing my job.

You've done your bit, son.

More than your bit.

It's time... Oh, Jesus, Dad.

Sorry. Jeez. Sorry. Wait.

Do that again. What?

Do that again.

Oh, fuck!

Shane!

Go and get her back. Get her, quick!

I thought we agreed to come alone.

No, Tina.

You did.

How's Mo?

You wanted me. You've got me.

Yeah, I suppose we do, don't we?

I have a proposal for you.

It's a little bit late for that, Tina.

But you know what?

Go on.

I can give you the cop.

The one that's after you? C3.

You can give us him?

How?

Name, address, whatever you need.

Well, go on.

Paul Collins. They call him Colly.

And the address.

Nah. Comes later.

Well, actually, Tina...

...his name will be enough.

Thank you for that, though.

Now, whoa, whoa.

Fucking whoa.

Hang on.

Donal, I'm still useful up here, now you know that.

Yeah. Once upon a time, you were.

But those days are gone,

and now you need to be gone, too.

Wait.

Can I look away?

What?

Can I turn around and look away?

Sure.

Tina.

You look away.

GUNSHOT

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! No, I wouldn't.

Tina, no... We...

No, we can... Just think for a second.

Just fucking let me talk to you, OK? Just...

Hey, Donal. Tina, no, listen to me, listen to me.

All I need you... No, no, no, no, Tina. I can go back.

Donal. I can go back. I can go back and I can talk to him.

Donal. I need you to listen to me for a minute now.

It's important.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Go on.

No, I am listening, Tina. Go on.

You lads coming in and taking over the town,

it didn't bother me. Not really.

I thought to myself, "It's time to move on, Tina."

You know, enjoy life. And then when I heard about the wee girls,

and I thought to myself, "Well, that's not very nice."

But again, I'm not the United Nations, you know,

it's none of my business. Not really.

But then you threatened my family, Donal.

And I cared about that.

Tina... Shut up.

I mean...

...I really, really cared about that.

I just wanted you to know.

That's where you fucked up.

No! Tina! No!

No!

GUNSHOT

Take it that's us evens now?

Hmm.

Wee bonus.

Er, take their car. Go wherever you want.

What about them?

Clean it up.

Leave them where they are.

What are you going to do now?

Me?

I'm going to war.

You need a soldier?

Show me, then.

You ready? Mm-hm.

Yo.

You tried to wreck my leg, but you didn't.

Dickhead.

Where's your da?

He's gone out to get coffee.

He says the canteen stuff is shite.

He knows what he wants.

He certainly does.

Do you?

I know that I want to feel like I'm making a difference.

And you're not?

Tommy told me about the mental health call,

about how you cleaned up his house.

Got him help.

I know, but, I mean...

See, I think, right,

you wanted to rise to the top, quickly.

And then it didn't quite work out like that.

So you convinced yourself it's bullshit.

It's a hamster wheel. It's all pointless.

But really, that's all just you.

Yeah, I'm sorry. Did you just come here

to make me feel bad? No.

I just want to help you take the blinkers off, Shane.

This whole time...

...with my ma dying,

I kept asking myself...

...was it all worth it?

All the shite, all the pain I put her through, the...

The anxiety.

And she was the one to tell me...

...that it was.

That she was proud of me and...

And she wanted me to keep going.

And I think I know why.

She knew that I had found something.

What did you find?

Do you know the way in Gaelic sports,

you play for your local club, and then if you're really good,

you play for your county?

There's that saying about

the difference between club and county.

Your county team-mates...

...will go to your funeral.

But your club team-mates...

...they'll carry your coffin.

I think I've found my club-mates, Shane.

And I think you have too.

DOOR OPENS

Oh, sorry.

If I'd known you were coming...

No, no worries.

I'm going to head to work anyway, Harry, so...

See you.

That was nice of her.

Yeah.

SIREN WAILS

Uniform Uniform from 3-6.

Confirmed two male casualties at this location.

Actually, I need you to task an SIO from MIT.

This looks like a double murder.

3-6 from Uniform, received. Assess and contain.

I just heard. I know.

Colly, what the fuck? I'm talking to Forensics.

There's nothing on the bodies. There's no phones,

there's no wallets, no shell casings.

This was a professional job.

We know who did this.

Well, there's no evidence.

Oh, fuck evidence. You know.

See, this is it, Colly.

This is why I wanted nothing to do with you

or C3 or any of it. Because of this.

You lie down with dogs, you get up with fucking fleas.

She saved two peelers yesterday.

And she killed two people today.

Look, OK, maybe I misread her.

Oh, fuck's sake, misread her. Listen to yourself.

Can we bring Mo McIntyre back in?

Not unless he breaks his bail conditions.

Jesus.

So tell me this, Colly,

were you running her, or was she running you?

All of this belongs in the past, Colly.

It can't be the future. It can't be.

There's another way of doing this.

You're in your own little world.

You have to get out of it.

How?

OK. You're doing really well.

I'm going to show you some photographs of men.

And I just want you to tell us if you recognise any of them.

OK?

Don't worry if you don't.

Yeah.

That's George.

Yeah. He was there too.

Yeah. Um...

...is he called Oscar?

And him.

He was with my friend Sarah.

All right. I think we should probably take a break there.

OK?

All right?

Here you are.

You remember how hard it was when you were there?

It got worse after.

Not enough staff, not enough anything.

And I think...

I think I gave up.

Just so many kids,

so many problems, and I couldn't...

I couldn't change anything.

I couldn't change anything, so I...

I stopped trying.

I was a mess, Grace.

But it was still my fault.

That day you walked in...

...wearing your uniform...

...I knew it was over then.

I knew it was going to change

because I knew you wouldn't give up.

You'd keep going and going and going...

...until you got somewhere.

That's why I wanted you to leave.

Because you reminded me...

You reminded me I'd let them all down.

Marian, it is the system.

It's this system.

It's broken.

Yeah, for you, for me.

So what do you do?

You just...

You just do what you can.

And you do it one day at a time.

Hey.

Do you think we can get her to university?

Hmm?

She is as smart as a wee whip.

Well, then.

That is what we do.

And finally, as you may have heard,

MIT were dispatched to what looks like a double murder

at Harebell Quarry.

Um, looks like one of the victims is Donal Fogerty.

May he rest in pieces.

OK, I'll send your call signs to your handsets.

Sharp eyes save lives.

Skipper?

I don't have an obs on my call sign.

Er, that's OK. Head on out there. I'll get it sorted.

Tommy Foster?

I hear you've got something to say for yourself.

2am last night, you sent an intel report up the line.

So come on, spit it out. I'm all ears.

Well, sir, I don't have any actual evidence of anything.

It's more hunches, ideas.

Yeah.

Welcome to my world.

So...

You went to this members' club.

Twice. The first time was when George McClelland overdosed.

And then we went back to do a licence check.

The Chief Super's husband,

Richard Robinson, was a member.

Like, he had just joined, but they were talking about it

in the group chat, welcoming him to the new club.

Did it seem the sort of club that a former judge might join?

I don't know.

There's been a lot of rumours.

How did the dissidents get her address

for the bomb attack?

People say she was careful.

So I was thinking, maybe this is it.

Maybe this is the leak.

I mean, what if he wasn't careful, right?

He joined that place thinking he was safe, amongst his own,

so he just gave his real address.

Listen, I'm sorry. I know it's only speculation.

So what would you do?

What would I do?

Well, look, sir, Fogerty ran everything up here.

Or at least that's what everybody thought.

But, sir...

...if it was me, I'd be looking for somebody else.

And I'd start at the Deanery.

The Ginleys wanted to come after you.

Fogerty was family.

I told them if they did,

I'd pull the plug on the supply.

That's very nice of you.

We do things differently now.

Assume they know everything.

Your supply routes, your club,

you.

So you have a plan?

Of course I have a plan.

Let's go for a walk.

CROCKERY CLATTERS

What's all this about?

It's just the most important meal of the day.

Apart from lunch, and dinner, and snacks.

Stay there. I got you a present.

Do you like it? Huh?

You really don't have to.

I do.

We do.

And that's time.

Well?

Yeah. Good.

HQ are signed off on it. We're good to go.

Ma'am.

I thought you were... I'm back.

Thanks to you.

Thanks to me?

We found a fibre strand on the bomb under the boss's car.

We matched it with a glove in the safehouse

of the dissidents group we took down.

It doesn't look like they were connected to a larger group, either.

So it's been deemed safe for me to come home.

Tell her the rest.

It seems the Chief Super's husband wasn't very careful

when he signed up for this members' club.

He used his real name and address.

And somebody with access to that system leaked his details. Who?

Well, that's what we're going to find out.

We're going to stand up a new operation.

Whatever's going on in that place,

we're going to get to the bottom of it.

Colly tells me a lot of this information

came up the line from Response,

in one way or another.

Now, I've been thinking for some time about Intelligence.

It seems to me the old ways won't work any more.

I mean, er, surveillance, sources, they have their place.

But what's our best asset, really?

It's Response.

They have their noses in the gutter,

and we've never really taken them seriously.

But then I thought,

what if we have someone who sees the big picture,

but who's also managing the small one?

Maybe we could draw it all together.

Me?

We're going to lean into this concept right across the district.

I want you to run it.

So I'm recommending you for the rank of Chief Inspector.

The interview will be a formality.

Operation Harvest.

It's time to make a difference, Helen.

Welcome to the team.

I don't know, Barney. I can't see any here, like.

I think this thing's a scam.

All right, mate? Welcome back.

Cheers. Barney, what are you doing here?

Meeting.

All right?

All right?

Welcome back, mate.

OK.

Let's get started.

OK, er... There's no easy way to say this...

...but we've received some new intelligence.

And it's not good.

And it affects all of us.

Sandra.

Yeah. Uh, we've known about this for a while,

but the time has come to share it.

We're just going to let you listen to the raw material.

But when you do...

...keep it together, yeah?

Barney.
