(music) She told you?

No... I... I guessed!

Look, this is nuts!

A son I never new I had is unconscious on the beach

and then she lays this on me!

Yeah, when I said "channel Baz" I didn't mean "look like his twin"!

We'd be delighted to give any child a happy home.

What is wrong with you?

Did you know there is an application for an oil pipeline

heading straight for Carrigeen?

Oil versus wind?

It would be a game-changer!

Kate could do with a little work romance while she's here,

God knows it's been a while!

Work? Sure, she's on her holidays!

Yeah, she is! Um, we are!

We have had an anonymous tip-off

about an oil pipeline into Carrigeen?

Can't help you!

I'm your wife!

You can talk to me!

I think I might be gay!

So if I'd called you up and said

"Do you wanna come back and raise a child with me?"

you'd have been cool with that?

Well, I would have had a choice!

Well, I had no choice!

There's a recent application from a pipeline-leasing company

looking for a foreshore licence in Carrigeen.

The company's called White Lightning Associates.

I have to ask you a question...

about Baz.

(music)

Ice in the morning

Better watch your step

There are dangerous maybes

So hard to forget

You know what I wanna know

You know what I want to know

Woah woah You know what I wanna know

You know what I want to know

Slow down the water

Let me catch my breath (knocking)

(footsteps)

(door opening)

(door closing)

Is he not here then?

Why would he be? He's not working 'til later.

Hang on...

You don't know where he is...

So he's not answering your calls...

Which means..

We... had the talk last night.

So you told him, then?

So you told him, then?

Something like that.

Something like that.

You either told him or you didn't.

He found out.

Ah, Jesus, Kate!

I... got interrupted.

And then he went off out with Poppy...

She started looking through his photos,

and slagging him off for becoming a mini-Baz...

What, he picked it up from that?

Mm-hm!

And then he was stood in front of me, just...

asking me straight to my face,

and I wasn't going to lie to him again..

(sighs)

This is messy.

He's probably with Poppy.

Yeah, I have to talk to him.

Just... explain things, and...

No.

You need to let him take a breather.

He's not gonna hear anything you say until he wants to.

Look, I know myself...

Took me a few days for it to sink in.

Yeah, OK.

OK, look, if your hear from him, just, em...

just let me know. OK?

I'm sorry, I'm a bit stressed at the moment, I just...

Kate... Kate!

It was never gonna come out the right way,

no matter who told him.

Yeah?

I'll tell him to call.

(footsteps, door opening)

(music)

(music, wind, waves)

(car door closes)

(wind, footsteps)

(knocking)

Yes?

Hello, Teddy!

Morning.

I'm, eh... actually just looking for Conor,

is he about?

Ah... he and Poppy went off galivanting,

or whatever it is they do.

Is something the matter?

Eh... we've had a bit of a fall-out.

And eh...

he's not answering his phone.

You know how kids don't like parents who meddle too much.

S... sorry, what do you mean?

I just think that sometimes we're better off, ah...

minding our own business, hmm, do you know what I'm saying?

Do I get the feeling you're not giving me parenting advice?

Oh, the word on the grapevine is that

you helped facilitate the second vote in the Chamber of Commerce,

I can't help wonder why you would help Janine Collins in her little...

coup d'etat.

Ah, well, none of that matters any more, does it?

Seeing as you succeeded in getting your oar in.

You've a lot of oars in the water, don't you?

Hard to know which way you're rowing.

(laughs) I'm sorry, I don't quite follow your metaphor, Ms Ryan.

Could you articulate a little bit more clearly,

or are you just trying to keep avoiding my questions?

Fuck off, Teddy.

Is that articulate enough for you?

If you see my son, could you, em...

please ask him to call me.

Thanks.

(music)

(phone rings)

Sigrid.

Eh... really, now?

(music, footsteps)

(reading under his breath)

(backpack hits ground)

Hey!

Hey!

So I guess you know, that I, em...

Yeah, yeah...

Yeah.

Yeah... I...

I mean it doesn't change...

No!

Ah...

We can still be, like...

Yeah!

Totally!

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Cool.

Cool, yeah.

Right then!

Good talk!

Yeah! Good chat!

Ah...

Eh... one thing?

Eh... text your mum?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hi!

Hey!

Hey Pops!

Hey!

So, you guys talked?

Yeah!

And you're all good.

Yeah! All good!

Totally.

Eh...

I've a surf class?

Some kids? Gotta...

Gotta split. Yeah.

Eh.. cool! Yeah!

(laughs)

(footsteps)

Cool! Cool.

God, you could cut the masculine energy with a dumbbell!

You know, why can't you guys admit that this is weird?

Like, super-weird.

It's not. Please.

OK. Maybe just a bit, but...

we're working through it.

Yeah, that's exactly what it looks like.

You guys need to talk.

Like, properly.

(music)

Perfect banquet hall for a wedding.

Empty, but full of promise.

Just like a marriage!

I didn't know you were such a romantic!

I know a con job when I see one.

It's a quiet place, with nobody around.

And... that sounds like you're going to murder me.

Hm. If Arvid was here, he just might.

Exactly how did that Chamber of Commerce vote go south?

I know... it looks bad right now,

but actually things are moving along quite nicely.

So... Callum?

My contact at the radio station,

got a tip-off about an application for a foreshore licence.

Someone has their eyes on a pipeline from the basin.

Any ideas who's behind it?

Well, here's the thing!

The company listed on the application is called

White Lightning Associates.

There are links to Teddy Lawson.

Teddy Lawson?

He's a... he's an objector, right?

Mm-hm! He's a rich blow-in from England,

has links to fracking...

He's the sleeveen that turned the vote around in the chamber.

Wh... what is this "sleeveen"?

Eh, sleeven. Em...

It's kinda like a snake.

But snakier.

(laughs)

This is perfect!

This is exactly what we need...

wind versus oil,

it completely discredits Lawson,

and everyone who stands behind him!

So would you ever ask Arvid not to murder me?

Who knows about this?

Just you and me.

The answer I was looking for was "everybody in the world", Kate!

Why isn't Callum shouting about this on the radio right now?

I think we need some...

proof, of the link between Teddy Lawson and the company.

I mean, his boat's called White Lightning,

the history of fracking, it all adds up...

But it's pretty circumstantial.

And?

This isn't a court of law!

We're just trying to make the right kind of noise here.

Just say what you know.

There's a pipeline application,

this is the company name,

we don't know anything,

but there's a boat in the harbour et cetera et cetera, and...

let people put two and two together.

(phone dings) Oh!

Excuse me.

Good news?

Yep.

(footsteps)

Although frankly,

nothing's going to feel like good news until I am on the road

out of this place.

Get the word out on this pipeline,

and that might happen quicker than you think.

(speaks in Norwegian)

(music)

(music, footsteps)

(music, waves)

(music, footsteps on sand)

I wouldn't bother, surf's shite!

I didn't come to surf.

I came to talk.

About what?

About you two!

Listen.

I know it's a bit weird for ya.

But me and Conor, we're...

just getting on with it.

I mean, he's totally chilled about it.

That's bullshit, Baz.

Come on, you're the dad here!

What do you mean?

I'm giving him space to get his head around it!

It's a lot to take in!

You know, when...

my parents split,

both of them gave me "space".

I didn't want it!

And whenever they did try and speak to me,

they'd just try and be my mate,

but I didn't need them to be my friend,

I needed them to be my parents.

I... I needed them to...

try and explain things to me, and...

to talk to me...

talk down to me like I was a kid,

'cause that's what I was, you know?

That's what I felt like.

Aw, Pops!

Hug?

Don't hug me, hug him!

Plenty of hugs to go round!

They're a renewable resource. (laughs)

I'll talk to him, yeah?

I've still got to go and get wet,

or my cover story will be shot.

(laughs)

Thanks.

(music)

(Callum's voice) Coming up at the top of the hour,

we talk to the Carrigeen GAA Club manager about their recent success

in the under-21 hurling.

But first, a little something to brighten up your day.

(music)

No no no no no!

No, no!

Kate, I'm on air!

I know. How long have you got left on this song?

Like, two minutes, it's... it's OK.

The pipeline?

I think we can go public with it.

Great! Why the change of mind?

I... think that the town deserves to know?

Plus, I have a hunch about who's behind it.

Well, don't start getting coy with me, who is it?

I think it might be Teddy Lawson.

What? (laughs)

(music) (Callum's voice on radio) OK,

let's get straight into it.

Big news coming through today on the wind farm.

We're talking about a major game-changer here.

(engine running) We've received information

regarding an application for a foreshore licence

in Carrigeen.

Let me break that down for you, ladies and gentlemen.

That's an application for an oil pipeline

from the basin to the shore

and through the townland of Carrigeen.

It seems as though we have a choice between an off-shore wind farm,

or an on-shore oil pipeline.

Now... (splash)

according to my sources,

the application was made by a company called

White Lightning Associates, with a PO box here in Carrigeen.

Now, if the name White Lightning sounds familiar

to some local listeners, it's because it should.

All we know is, that if you go down to the harbour,

you'll see a boat with that name on it. White Lightning.

Some of you may already know who owns that boat.

It's Teddy Lawson.

Now, we're not making any allegations here today,

this... may be coincidence,

but it just so happens that Teddy Lawson is one of our most

vocal anti-wind farm protestors.

Back after this. (click)

Phew. Boom!

(door opens)

Callum, you named him!

I... i... it's pretty obvious who I was ascribing.

Besides, I just put forward an idea.

This could turn the tide!

It could.

(music)

(clink)

Teddy Lawson's drillin' for oil!

You what?

On the radio!

They're saying Teddy's going to bring a pipeline through the town!

'Sake!

Eight hundred years, and they're still plundering over here.

Never trust a Sasanach, Donal.

Especially one named after a feckin' bear!

(laughter)

(music)

Teddy fuckin' Lawson!

Holy shit!

I know.

Like, wow!

Yup.

I know.

I mean...

seriously!

Stefan?

Could you maybe...

I dunno.

Maybe say something constructive?

(laughs)

Sorry.

Oh God, I shouldn't.

Hm. (inhales)

Hm. (inhales)

Where is he now?

At home.

We slept in separate rooms last night.

(inhales) Haven't said a word about it since.

Love, I'm so sorry.

I am just trying...

so hard...

not to be angry. Oh!

I am trying...

so hard!

(laughs)

You know, he just...

sprung it on me!

How could he look me in the eye?

Every single day,

all those years?

And not say it?

Not really.

Not really.

(laughs) Go on.

I suppose I should.

Just don't do anything rash.

You don't want to torpedo the whole fostering thing

until you've had a chance to think things through.

But, love...

you have to talk to him.

OK.

But can I be angry for another little while?

OK, good.

(music)

Ow. (laughs)

What was that for?

Oh, I dunno.

Don't shove me! Just...

scream at the sea, or something.

Pff.

(music)

(laughter, door opens)

(music, waves)

Aaaaaaah!

Aaaaaaaah! Aaaaaaah!

(laughter)

(music)

(music, boat engine, horn)

(music)

(church bells)

(birdsong)

(background conversations)

How're ye! Oh, Jesus!

You trying to give me a heart attack?

Sorry, I didn't mean to sneak up on you.

There's something that I, eh...

think you should see.

(music)

Now?

Come on!

What?

OK, alright, I'm up, I'm up, I'm up, God!

I'm coming! (chair scraping)

All the objectors,

every one of them,

withdrawn.

(thump)

Except for Teddy.

Some people just don't know when they're beat.

(laughter)

I thought you'd be delighted, it's...

everything we've been working for!

Ah no, yeah, it's, em...

yo! Well done you!

Ah! Didn't do it on me own...

(laughs)

Come on. We'll get a coffee, celebrate.

Stefan.

Coffees, table two, they're still waiting!

(door opens)

Thank you! After you!

Hello! Breege!

Couple of... coffees please.

Two more, while you're there.

(saucers clinking)

(music, footsteps)

(door closes)

(splat)

(splat)

Fuck off back to England!

And take your pipeline with ya!

Paudi! Paudi!

(locks door)

Son of a bitch! (footsteps)

Have you ever thought about moving to a bigger radio station?

Ah...

Well, there couldn't be much keeping you here,

now that you... well, you know...

Oh, don't worry, you can say it.

Since my marriage melted down like Chernobyl?

Eh... yeah!

That's... exactly how I was gonna put it.

Myself and Cliona were a bad idea from the start.

We were going out together since we were fourteen.

You know, her family, my family, small town...

We moved up to Dublin when I was studying,

bought a house, got married,

and then we sank like the Titanic.

(music)

This is my home.

Plus, I've the job offer to keep me afloat.

(door opens)

My solicitor would like a word.

within 24 hours of the email I am about to send you.

I'll be in touch.

(beep)

That was her being polite,

so I suggest you do exactly what she said.

Slan.

(door opens)

Shit! Shit! Shit!

Shit!

I went too far.

Why did I go and name him? I could lose my job over this!

OK, he's probably just bluffing?

Just... don't be too hard on yourself, alright?

OK, I put you up to this.

Better head back to the station.

Before the shit hits the fan.

Ah, if it isn't Columbo.

Fuck off back to Hawaii, Baz!

What did I say?

It has absolutely nothing to do with you, OK?

How is everything, how's, em...

How's Conor?

Ah... he's fine!

He'll come around.

You just need to give him some...

Space, and time?

I know, everyone keeps telling me that, and...

I just want to talk to him.

Tomorrow night.

I'm rallying some heads for the end-of-season party.

Come along!

Could be a good chance to call a truce?

You're having a party?

It's for the community, Kate!

And I'm organising it this year.

We can't just cancel it because you came and vomited your life

all over mine! Ooh, lovely image!

Thank you... for that!

Look, don't worry about Conor.

He's still a kid!

You know, he's...

confused!

Oh, and now you're giving me advice on parenting?

After... five minutes' experience?

And whose fault is that?

OK. Would you...

please just ask him to take one of my calls.

I will.

(door opens)

(music)

(music, footsteps)

(music, knocking)

(music, door opens)

(music)

(music, waves)

I had no idea!

Bolt out of the blue.

How are you not even angry?

She did this to both of us!

I was...

I suppose I still am, a bit.

I reckon your Mum had her reasons.

It wasn't just that I wasn't in the country at the time,

I wasn't exactly stable parent material either.

When I was old enough, she should have told me.

Given me the chance to look you up or not.

But sure look, we got to meet as two regular people!

Who knows, we mightn't have hit it off the other way!

(waves)

(sighs)

It's beautiful.

(sighs)

(waves)

Look...

I know it's gonna be strange for a while, but...

I wanna try.

I really wanna try to be your...

(laughs) feels weird even saying it!

What...

Dad?

(laughter)

Sounds even weirder coming from you!

Yeah. (laughs)

Whatever happens between us...

she's always gonna be your mum.

OK?

Yeah.

See?

I'm getting the hang of this dad lark already!

(laughs)

(music, waves)

(music)

(music, phone keys beeping)

(music, ring tone)

(on phone) Hey, this is Conor,

I can't get to the phone right now,

just leave me a message. (beep)

Hey, love, I...

I'm trying to give you space, but I...

I can't.

I need to talk to you?

Em...

To apologise?

Just...

Please give me a chance to explain, I will...

answer any question you have.

Anything. Just...

I promise.

I just really wish that you were here with me.

(laughs) OK.

(music)

(music) (sobs)

(music, waves)

Ah!

(door closes)

Couldn't you have just bought these new?

I didn't drag them over here for a laugh!

Reduce, reuse, recycle!

Protest against wind farms while you're at it, right?

Beats an oil pipeline!

I'm going to head in to down, get the drinks ordered.

I'll send someone up to collect all that stuff.

Oh! And don't forget those buckets.

We'll need them for the ice.

Did you wash these out?

No, I thought sand and sea salt would add to the Hawaiian theme!

OK, can we stop this please?

Your Mum and her little DJ friend Callum

are literally ruining my dad's life!

He might have to move!

Can you stop defending your Dad?

All you do is complain about how he's blocking the wind farm,

at least my mum moved him out of the way!

Yeah, God, 'cause she's such a hero, isn't she?

I can tell you now, everything they're saying about him

is bullshit, I know my dad.

Yeah! And I know my mum!

Well, you're gonna tell me she's not a liar now, are you?

You know, maybe my dad was right.

Why does she even care so much anyway?

Look...

Poppy, eh...

The truth is, I, eh...

I don't care.

About the wind farm, or the pipeline, or any of that stuff.

I only care about this place 'cause you're here!

(clunk)

Yeah, well...

(thump)

I won't be much longer.

(clunk)

(music, traffic)

(phone ringing)

Kate!

Oh! Hey!

Morten, thanks for taking my call. Em...

Listen.

I've been doing some thinking, and...

I realise I have a lot of apologies to make,

and it seemed...

best to start with you.

The best or the easiest?

Well...

You're taking my call, so that puts you ahead of Conor.

So just the least important then.

Morten, I didn't mean to throw you under the bus,

I just kind of let it happen.

I sort of went with the flow when I should have been

swimming against it.

Does that... make... any sense?

Your use of metaphors is getting quite confusing!

Yeah, OK, forget the metaphor,

Morten, I'm saying sorry.

I'm sorry for what happened to you,

I'm sorry I wasn't there for you,

I'm just... sorry.

Now... that wasn't too hard, was it? (sighs)

N.. no! No, that's not what this is about!

It's OK.

I still believe in what you're doing down there.

And I want to help.

So what's the latest?

Eh, well... (sighs)

the company that put in the application is called

White Lightning Associates?

We just need to know who's behind them.

OK.

Copy that, leave it with me.

(music, phone beeps)

(music, wheels on tarmac)

(sings to himself)

Hey Baz!

Hey! See you tonight!

Now Baz!

We can't be having any of that rabbit food again this year.

(clunk)

It is not safe!

There is no soakage in salad!

I'm cooking a barbecue, Michael.

Don't worry, there will be meat!

Oh, I heard something similar last year,

and what did I find in the hot dogs?

Vegan sausages. I heard all about it.

Vegan sausage in the hot dogs!

That's no way to treat people!

It's like serving them alcohol-free beer, and calling it a pint!

Look, why don't you look after the booze,

and I'll take care of the food.

(door opens and closes)

Hiya!

I'll get you that keg.

Are you stalking me?

I saw your trailer-bike outside, I wondered, em...

is... Conor with you?

He's back getting the club ready for the party!

Oh God.

I still have a few things to do round town.

Why don't you "accidentally" show up early?

I'm sure Conor could use an extra hand.

Brilliant.

(music)

Oh!

Down there for dancin'!

(laughs)

(music)

(background conversation)

Hey...

You're early. The party doesn't start 'til 7.

I'm not... here for the party, I'm here to...

explain myself, and...

to apologise.

I guess that makes you late, then.

Yeah, I know,

eighteen years too late.

It's not funny.

Conor, would you please...

just let me try...

to apologise?

Go on then!

I know I need to change,

I know I need to stop making excuses,

stop trying to make things right by pretending nothing's wrong...

I am really sorry I didn't tell you about your father.

I was wrong.

And stupid.

I should have been honest with you.

Should have trusted you to be able to deal with the truth.

And if I could undo what I did,

God knows I would do it in a heartbeat.

Love, I am so sorry.

Did you practise that?

Eh, yeah. I did a bit.

Well, I guess that's the...

apology covered.

Anything... that you want.

Anything... that you want.

Anything, I promise.

Look, can we maybe just...

enjoy the party like...

normal people? (laughs)

And do all the talking and explaining later?

Yeah.

I can do that, I can be...

normal! (laughs)

(whispers) Don't kid yourself, Mum! (laughs)

(music)

(phone dings)

(music, wind)

(music, waves)

(phone rings)

(clunk)

Aaah!

Ah, for God's sake!

What happened to your ball-handling skills, Kelleher?

You'd be laughed out of the Number 9 jersey

if you let the kick-out drop like that!

Lay off, Paudi!

Ah, here...

Sit yourself down!

(footsteps, waves)

I'm under a lot of stress alright.

I haven't even backed up me phone.

First world problems, Callum, first world problems!

Sure, I thought you'd be cock-a-hoop!

The whole town's saying you'll get your wind farm.

Everyone's talking about your pipeline scoop.

A Pyrrhic victory, Paudi.

The station's threatening to suspend me,

and Teddy Lawson's trying to take me down for defamation.

Teddy Lawson couldn't take down his own homework!

Don't mind him!

Just you remember one thing...

Never say "Pyrrhic victory" again.

You sound like a prick.

(laughs) Here!

Stop your whingin'!

Take a swig of that!

Whiskey. It doesn't really agree with me.

Heartburn. And...

blackouts.

Doesn't mix.

Ah!

What did I say about whingin'?

Here!

(waves)

(swallows)

Now...

Let's see if we can catch your phone.

(music) Ha? (laughs)

(music, party noises) Are you sure this is a good idea?

Let's just get it over with.

And discuss our exit strategy tomorrow.

Besides, do you know what? I need a drink.

Aloha, guys!

Party time, am I right? (laughs)

She made me wear this!

Arrah, feck that!

I'm not goin' round looking like a flattened florist!

Shut up, you love it!

Bump and I would like a virgin mojito.

Come on, Daddy!

See you in there?

Come on.

Everything's ruined anyway.

(music, party noises)

Go on, lads!

Sure!

So listen...

I had a chance for the chat with Conor,

so thanks for the tip-off.

That was very parental of you.

Parental. Oh.

Yeah! Thanks.

Love what you've done with the place, by the way.

It's very you.

Gaudy and slightly tacky?

Well... if the apron's anything to go by...

It's kinda...

fruity housewife!

Thank you!

Totally the look I was going for.

So what did you come as?

Unassuming temptress?

Fuck off, Baz.

Enjoy!

There you are now.

And don't forget who got you drunk!

Big Mike has got you sorted!

(thump)

Careful now!

We don't want another accident!

(laughs)

You off the clock?

No, I've just got to bring Baz his drink.

Just kidding. I...

I'm a free agent, for the whole night.

Oh! Not like that, you know... (laughs) I just, eh...

Em... work-wise. Yeah!

(laughs) Listen...

I'm really sorry about earlier, I...

I'm not here for much longer,

and I don't want our parents to ruin it for us. You know?

Yeah, me too.

And at least my dad had the good sense to stay away tonight.

That is one less to worry about.

Tell you what, you get the car. And we'll...

abduct my mum, throw her in the boot before she does any more damage!

(laughs) How about you...

get me a drink first?

Sounds good.

(laughs)

(music, party noises)

Oh, drink up!

The round's on me!

What's he like?

It's not a round if they're free!

And it's not a race, Stefan!

Get me another whiskey, will ya?

Come on, it's a party!

Drink all your cares away!

It's actually "sing all your cares away"?

Good idea.

Drinks first, though!

Ja! Danke!

How are you holding up?

Ah... not bad.

Considering I'm...

someone's beard!

(tuts) (laughs)

Stefan seems to be cutting loose, though.

Ah, he's probably just numbing his pain.

Yeah, well.

I just wanna get obliterated.

(laughs)

(in posh voice) To terrible life choices!

Yeah! To making better ones!

(clink)

(laughs)

(music, party noises)

Yeah-heah-heh-ho! (cheers)

Hi Callum! Plenty of pipeline!

Yeah-heah! (whistles)

What about this lad?

(laughs) Ah, leave it out, lads.

Are you sure? Oh, I am yeah! Give us that!

(applause)

Jesus.

I'm proud of him an' all, but I don't want him getting notions.

By the look of him I'd say the acclaim isn't the only thing

that's gone to his head!

Alright, Cliona, if you can't say something nice...

But you just...

Well, I'm allowed to.

I'm his mother.

And I'm his ex-wife!

Hardly gonna be sunshine and roses, now, is it?

Well, why are you hanging round like you miss the smell of him, then?

Hm?

(footsteps)

(gasps)

(thud)

(footsteps)

(music)

(sings) How can I protect you in this crazy world?

Oh, Mother of Good Counsel!

(laughs)

It's alright What is he doing?

It's alright

He's good!

At baking, yes!

I have fallen down so many times (cheers)

Yeah-heh-heh-hey! Go on!

Dunno why, dunno where

Don't care less it's all the same

He's great!

No need to encourage him! Thanks.

(whistle)

(cheers)

I have travelled through so many towns

(cheers)

Dunno why, dunno where

Don't care less it's all the same

Go on, ya boy ye! (whistles)

(everyone) How can I protect you in this crazy world?

Yeah hoo!

It's alright

Yeah, it's alright Wa hoo! Woo!

Can you hear the sound of nothing (cheers)

Nothing

(music, party noises)

(footsteps)

Got a light?

Ah ha ha, Kate?

Mwah!

My partner in crime! (laughs)

Ooh, yes.

Didn't know you were a smoker?

Only when I hit the six-pint mark.

(whispers) Shh! My folks don't know!

(laughs) (lighter sparks)

I see you got a head start on the party!

Ah... (laughs)

A last session before I'm taken down for defamation.

On that note... I've got some news.

Ah, it better be good news, something like...

"Teddy's dropped his complaint", or "Your job is totally safe"!

Yeah, I'm not sure we're right about Teddy...

Either someone else owns White Lightning Associates, or...

he's trying to hide with some other company name.

Wait, I'm confused.

I have a contact in Dublin.

He says that White Lightning Associates is owned by BMK Assets.

Say that again?

What, BMK?

Kate!

That's...

that's Big Mike Kelleher!

Those initials could mean anything!

No, he... he signs everything with "BMK"!

Always has! His fantasy football team is called BMK,

for Christ's sake! Shit! Ah, it makes sense now...

He's always hated Teddy, he stitched him up to cover himself!

Even if you're right, you...

we're just gonna have to...

take a beat, and think this...

No! Screw him!

It's his fault I'm in this mess, he needs to be called out!

Well, Callum...

Mm! Ca... Jesus, Callum!

Hang on a sec!

What? Callum!

(music) (everyone) It's alright

(cheers) It's alright

(music)

(applause)

Callum?

(applause)

But I'm lining up my encore!

Save it for "Nobody's Got Talent".

Got an announcement to make!

Listen up, will ye?

Go on, Callum, ye boy ye!

(feedback) Everybody! Shut up!

Thank you!

I've got a personal admission to make.

It appears...

I may have made a serious error

in my report yesterday.

I knew there was no pipeline!

No! No, no, there is a pipeline.

It just has nothing to do

with Teddy Lawson.

(Poppy shouts) Yeah, I knew it!

I told you!

The person...

behind the pipeline...

is my father! (gasps)

Michael Kelleher!

Now, hang on a second there, Callum.

I don't know what think you're trying to do,

but I had nothing to do with that!

Oh, you're only sitting on the fence

because you couldn't support the wind farm

against your own interests.

I have the evidence!

I am not going to dignify this nonsense with a response!

(laughs) You won't even deny it!

I've got evidence! I have documentation!

I just wanna say...

if it wasn't for that woman over there...

if it wasn't for her... courage!

And tenacity in uncovering the truth!

Oh, we'd all be none the wiser.

for Kate Ryan!

A top-class human being!

And a genuine... crusader

for the truth.

Hip hip!

(crowd) Hurray!

Hip hip!

Hurray!

Woah, woah woah woah!

Well, hang on a second.

My husband loves this town.

(laughs)

He would never do anything to harm it,

or its people.

And I won't stand here and listen to his name being blackened.

What are you talking about, Mam?

You're making a holy show of us!

You go drink some coffee, take a shower!

Do you want to know the truth?

The real truth about this...

crusader?

It gives me no pleasure to have to say this,

because I'd actually grown quite fond of her when she came down here.

I even let her into my circle of trust.

It breaks my heart, but Kate Ryan is NOT who she pretends to be.

Took me a while to piece it all together.

But when I added it up it was undeniable.

She's working for Norsk Ventus. (gasps)

What?

And she has been, all along.

Ha ha, this is nonsense.

You're losing the run of yourself, Ma.

Kate! Tell them!

(music) It's not true, is it?

Tell them.

Tell them.

(music)
