Original subtitles

So I'm aware that Officer Gleason

took your statement last night

but often little details come back after a night's sleep.

I can't say I got much sleep.

Can I just ask,

did you do anything to provoke him before the attack?

No.

No, there wasn't any time to do anything.

And he just...

He just came straight up.

See that strikes me as unusual.

I mean, your average thief wants to be in and out.

the less interaction with somebody who might be able

to identify them the better.

But this person made it their business to assault you

when they could, have just made their escape.

Meaning what?

Meaning this feels personal.

My hero.

What you did last night.

Saving Mom, even after...

what I told you she said.

Anyone would have done the same.

Don't worry, Jen.

You're mom's fine.

You better get showered.

Sergeant O'Rourke is here.

She wants to speak to you.

You've been in many fights?

What's that supposed to mean?

I'm just curious.

It was brave jumping in like you did.

Must've been confident you could take them.

Oh, to be honest,

I was just thinking about protecting Val.

Just went on auto pilot.

And what were you doing here at that hour?

I went to sort something out.

Something personal.

I'm aware that your grandson Calum has a troubled past.

What with violence and so on.

No.

He wasn't here at the time,

he was with his biological mother.

- And can she verify this? - Yeah, she can.

Listen is this really going to be your strategy?

You're just going through my immediate family one by one

when you should be out there looking

for who actually did this.

I think, um, my mother needs to rest.

Can we wrap this up later?

Of course.

Now there is a chance that this person may be back.

Why would you think that?

Well, we don't know what their intentions were.

But for now, lock your windows and doors, set your alarm,

maybe ask a male relative to stay over a few nights?

I can stay.

Only if you're comfortable with it, of course.

That's great.

Thank you.

I'll be in touch.

Hope you're hungry.

It's been hard on Calum.

with Dad and all.

He's been really down.

It's been hard on both of you.

Once he finds out that you didn't know you were drinking,

he's gonna have to say sorry.

Calum?

Calum, Calum, wait.

Just... wait.

Where are you going?

What's it to you?

You're angry with me I get it.

I do form where you're standing I messed up.

I trusted you! We both did!

And then you go and ruin everything

and you tried pulling Finn down with you.

There's nothing sacred to you!

You're own kids.

Jacob! Stop this!

- Jacob-- - She did nothing wrong!

Leave her alone!

Stop it! Stop it! Jacob!

Calum!

Are you okay?

Come on, let's go back inside, both of you!

You did a pretty good job actually.

It'll heal nicely?

It hurts like hell.

I can give you something for that.

What was this personal matter

that Finn mentioned O'Rourke?

I told him Mom thought he spiked Elaine's drink

and he wanted to set things straight.

Thank God you did because if he hadn't come over then.

Are you sure you're all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

And you're okay with Finn staying here?

Well, I hate to admit it but I think I'll sleep easier

knowing that if whoever it was does come back,

Well, at least we have a bit of protection.

Come on, Mom,

- bed for you. - No.

I need to get to the bottom of this.

Sleep can bloody wait.

I have to go collect the boys.

Are you going to be okay?

Yes.

Come here.

- I love you. - I love you too.

We need to find a way.

A way to what?

To make it up to him.

What about a family dinner?

- Tomorrow? - Yeah.

Good idea.

Jacob, it really means a lot that you believe me?

You wouldn't drink again?

I know you wouldn't.

But...

how do you know that?

Because...

you love us.

You wouldn't do anything to hurt us.

That's so lovely.

You have no idea how that feels to hear.

But if you saw anything or...

anyone touch my drink that night,

just know that you can tell me.

Good morning.

Is it?

Well, good enough.

After consuming two liters of ice cream last night

right before bed?

It's hard when someone moves on

before you're ready to, you know.

- But in time you-- - That's not that.

So...

What's up?

He's in such a vulnerable place.

I don't trust this Finn,

or his motives for...

suddenly wanting to be Calum's best friend.

It's not unusual for Calum to seek out

a male role model, you know, especially after Rory passing.

It's more than that.

He won't hear a bad word said about Finn.

He idolizes him.

It's not right.

Sure, you're okay to drive?

Absolutely.

Why don't we just try and start again?

You know, tell me a bit more about your life.

Things must have been very hard when your mom died.

Yeah, it was.

Going from foster home to foster home.

Weren't all bad though.

Just one woman.

Really nice lady actually.

Wanted to make her happy so I decided

to give all the tropical fish a nice bubble bath.

Did not end well.

Growing up I was angry.

Didn't know who I was supposed to be.

I suppose you just gotta crack on.

Bury it.

Do you really think it's a good idea

moving him in when clearly there's someone dangerous

targeting the place?

I can see the sense in that.

The boys are too young, it'd be good to have

a man in the house in case that fella comes back.

Exactly.

You still must be pretty shook?

Is there anything I can do?

Maybe we should double up on the door locks

just for extra security?

Leave it with me. I'll have one of my guys

up to you in a couple of hours.

Thank you, Frank.

It's okay.

All right, guys?

Done.

I just want to thank you guys for everything.

No, pleasure having you.

You've been more than kind.

We just want the best for you.

Come on.

All right.

See you round.

That fucking woman.

What?

She's just been through a terrible ordeal.

Oh, please. She's as tough as nails.

She deserves everything she's got coming to her.

Martha will look after you.

Oh, Kevin.

What do you want?

Uh, nothing.

I just wondered if you might have a minute.

Fine.

I really appreciate you having me back, Kevin.

So brought you this.

Are you serious?

You send someone here to threaten me

into giving you back a job

and you've the knack to turn around and thank me for it.

Threaten you, with what?

You're saying you didn't send him over here to try

- and intimidate me? - No.

No. I swear on my life.

I told him I was worried about Nell and the future.

But after that--

What happened to you?

Excuse me?

The woman I hired had her life together.

She was professional, kind--

I'll just stop you there, Kevin.

If I wanted to be preached at this morning,

I would have gone to Mass.

- I'm just saying-- - And now I'm just saying.

We don't have to like each other.

But I do have to work,

so that's exactly what I'm going to do.

This isn't right.

And you know it.

You leave me no choice.

No, you have a choice.

Just hope you make the right one.

Extra pillows in the cupboard.

Thank you.

If there's anything else, just let me know.

Thank you.

- It's fine. - No, it's not.

And it wasn't, it certainly wasn't last night,

what you did for me.

You don't have to pretend with me.

I know what it's like.

It's happened to me before.

Several times in fact, but for the first time

changes your balance for a bit.

It's about me.

I don't want anyone

hurt any member of this family.

Thank you.

Listen, I know how happy you were at Frank's.

I really, I really do appreciate you doing this.

I was happy but,

Alanna can be a little tense at times.

Not always easy to be around.

How do you mean?

Well, she seems to hold a lot of anger,

towards you in particular.

She spoke about me?

No, it wasn't what she said, more of how she said it.

Seems like she's not quite over what happened between you two.

I didn't hear you knock.

Sorry, I know you're not the enemy here.

No.

Neither is Val.

- Oh, please. - I mean, I'm serious.

Why does it always have to get so personal between you two?

I know what happened between you and Denis ruined your friendship

but if anyone should have an issue with it

surely it should be Val.

She might not be

the easiest person to get along with in the world,

especially if you're pulling against her, but...

She's been through that.

Before and after Denis died.

Your right.

It's water under the bridge.

I shouldn't have said what I said earlier, it was just...

heat of the moment kind of thing.

Good?

Thank you for coming in so quickly.

So your neighbor Dan Haggerty,

had a couple of machinery thefts in the past few months.

So he had CCTV cameras fitted outside his yard

and every night

for the past week or so at about 10pm

this vehicle passes up in the direction of your house.

And then about ten to 30 minutes later,

it passes back.

Now we're doing a check

to see who owns the make and model in the area.

But, I just wondered.

Do you recognize this vehicle?

- Hey. - Hi.

I could've come to yours.

It's less complicated here.

Do you mind if we sit?

No.

Has, um, has Sergeant O'Rourke called you?

No. Why would she do that?

I don't know, Frank, you tell me?

I'm not following you here, Val.

Was it about the development, is that it?

You and Alanna,

were you just putting pressure on me to sign?

No. What the hell are you on about, Val?

Listen, I wouldn't put anything past Alanna but you, Frank.

I mean, come on. I trusted you.

And the girls adore you.

How did you let it get this far?

Don't forget it's Dad's birthday tomorrow.

Remember?

We promised him we'd cut the cake in a berm.

What is going on with the two of you?

- We had a fight. - Over what?

Elaine.

He's being horrible to her.

She's a grown-up. We can look after ourselves.

Do you want something bad to happen to her?

Of course not. Why would you say that?

Because you're worried she's going to take us away.

That won't ever happen Jacob ever.

You don't need to worry about that.

Can we invite her to come with us tomorrow?

Sure if that's what you want.

I can't believe that you think

that I would do anything, anything at all,

that would potentially hurt any of you?

- I saw your car, Frank. - You saw a silver Land Rover.

How do you know it was even mine?

Look.

I swear... on my mother's grave

that was not me driving by your house every night.

And I did not send someone to break into your house

to beat the hell out of you.

Jesus, whatever went on between me and Denis,

I have no reason to bear any grudge against you or the girls.

What about Alanna?

No, she would never.

Are you sure about that?

Hey.

What?

How do you find Calum recently?

Does he seem okay to you?

Yeah, he's a growing lad. He's got a lot on his plate.

Seems okay.

Why?

When they're smaller they're easier to protect.

Now he's not telling me what's on his mind.

He's shutting me out.

I'm worried about him.

I'll keep an eye on him.

Thanks.

Okay, look, I do know, I do know

but I'm sworn to secrecy.

SHe told you? When?

She told me after the Christening.

She's always confided in me.

So who is it?

- I can't tell you. - Yeah.

My God, will you stop doing that?

Okay, but you're not one of these gossip vampires?

No, it's not about gossip. I genuinely care about Jenny.

Yeah, right.

Oh, go on, please.

Please, please, please.

All right, I'll tell you but you can't tell anyone, okay?

It's Michael.

- You've been in too long.

Have some of this.

Get your blood sugar up.

How was last night at your mom's?

Just a joke.

Do you know how I got the scares?

From a fight. It was Elaine's fault.

She's an alcoholic.

She got drunk one night

when she's supposed to be watching us.

And she said that she would never touch it again.

And this happens.

I know what it's like to have a parent who's an addict.

Who chooses their addiction over you again and again.

And all I can say is,

you can't let what they do define your life.

You can't control them.

All you can do...

is make sure that they don't destroy you.

I wanted to come when I heard about the accident,

but I thought you and Cathy probably needed a bit of time.

Where did you go?

Alanna's place.

I just needed some space to

try and figure out what was happening.

And did you figure it all out?

No. Not really.

I just kind of accepted that my life's a mess because

that's the way life is.

You fall in love with the wrong people

who commonly drive you crazy.

So on and so on.

If you went because of what I said then I'm sorry.

For what?

Saying it or feeling it?

Saying it.

Just made everything complicated.

Complicated, as you well know, is my middle name.

Let's just forget it ever happened.

Deal?

Deal.

Good.

So when are you getting out of jail?

I'm out. Doctor's just signed my discharge papers,

there so.

Is Cathy coming to get you?

No, she's got her hands full.

But no, so I said I'd get a taxi.

Ah, I think we can do better than that.

- Come on. - Yeah?

Yeah.

Wouldn't know how you'd get in a taxi. Come on.

You all right? I've got your back.

- Are you sure? - Yeah.

I thought you were getting a taxi.

There was no need. I was coming this way anyway.

Little man.

Yeah.

Well, I'll leave you to it.

Thanks.

Grace,

will you come over for a coffee tomorrow?

Sure.

He had mentioned that you threatened Kevin

to get me my job back.

You know that's not what I meant.

If you heard it like that, he was mistaken.

What did you mean?

I meant, they should take a long, hard look at himself

before he judges other people.

He said you brought up that he helped cover up

the money that I took.

Only in passing.

To emphasize how close you two once were.

He's willing to do that because he knows you.

Doesn't change does he?

Look, I hated seeing you so upset

and if it came across threatening it's only because

I feel for you

and for Nell.

And I know I can come across a bit strong sometimes

but it's only

when something matters to me.

You guys.

You matter.

Thank you.

Are you okay?

- Yeah, fine. - Jenny says you're hurt.

No, no, no, not badly.

Just a bit shook up.

But Finn came just in time.

See, you didn't have to come rushing back for me.

Who else would I come rushing back for if not my own mother?

Would you just come here.

Jesus.

I'm so glad you're home.

Hey.

You got a minute?

What for?

Just thought you might like to know

that Calum's doing okay.

What do you want from him?

You know, you're not the only one that cares about him.

You don't even know him.

If you think I had something to do with a breakup,

then you're wrong.

I know it's hard.

Men are always under estimating women,

just assuming that our motivations are emotional.

Am I wrong?

Girlfriend or not, I'll always have Calum's back.

Me too.

He's a great kid.

And he deserves a lot better than what some of the adults

have been given him recently.

I don't want to be a part change--

Tell it to somebody who believes your bullshit

because I don't.

I can see you for what you are. You're fake.

There's not one real thing about you.

And I'm watching you.

Hey.

Didn't know you were back.

This is all a bit fucking weird if you ask me.

Know how you feel.

Thanks for mom.

No problem.

Ahern,

visit starts in ten minutes.

Finn.

Didn't think you'd actually come.

Well, here I am.

What do you want?

I wanna make things right.

To explain the past to you.

So you understand exactly what happened.

I think it was Alanna that told someone about Michael

being the father of Jenny's baby.

Checked her laptop.

She's been searching all of you.

- I just can't believe this. - Listen,

I'm sorry. I mean, I know,

I know this must be a terrible blow for you.

I know you were happy.

Yeah, I thought it was,

but when it all comes down to it,

what was it even built on?

Just lies.

You still have us,

your family.

We'll always be there for you.

keep waiting for O'Rourke to knock on the door.

Let her.

Let the Guards handle Alanna.

That way we get to keep clear this mess.

It's just,

I'm not sure that I can just,

just keep pretending, you know.

Well, you have to, Frank,

It won't be for long.

Hello? How are you? Come here to me.

Please, just do your best.

We're doing this for your dad.

Uh, when do you think you'll open the cafe?

Uh, I'm not sure.

There's still a bit of tidy-up work to do,

plus I just wanna make sure I'm free for ma'am

in case she needs me.

Are you okay?

I just think, um,

we need to clear the air.

Like it or not, it's complicated,

your history together.

I admit it makes me a little insecure at times.

No, I, I need to say this.

Grace, I threw the brick the night you opened your cafe.

Why?

Because someone told me they saw you kissing Joe in there

the day before it opened.

And I just think we have no hope of being able to move forward

unless we can be completely honest about the past.

So I'm asking you both to tell me the truth.

Are you having an affair?

Cathy, I mean, you know what this place is like.

Valley of the squinting windows.

There's always someone out there stirring,

you know that.

They can't stand to see you happy. They're bored.

It wasn't, it wasn't like that.

It wasn't even someone local.

Finn.

That explains it.

I mean, the guy's been causing trouble since he got here.

- Oh, just stop, Joe. - What?

There was a break-in at Mom's

with the cafe opening and the stress

and the anxiety.

I wasn't myself.

Joe came in to wish me well,

and I kind of just fell apart and I kissed him,

but, but...

he stopped it immediately.

I regretted it immediately.

And just don't blame him.

You guys have something so precious.

And I just,

I don't deserve to be a part of it.

I don't know.

Let's think of all the really annoying things Rory did.

I mean, I'll start.

Um,

he used to mouth all the lines

to the Monty Python movies

while he was watching them.

- So annoying.

That pen clicking thing he used to do

when he is thinking.

Hundred percent.

And when he was tired he snored like a freight train.

- The walls would be shaking. - Mm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.

Mom,

do you have anything to drink?

There's water in car.

Come on.

How do we get past this?

What do you mean?

Come on, Calum.

You're a bright kid.

You know, it doesn't make sense for me to drink.

Even Jacob knows that.

Just had enough

of everyone expecting me to just swallow everything

that they tell me.

I wanna think for myself.

Do you? But that's good.

I support that.

It's not just me, you know?

What is?

Who believes that Dad was innocent?

Finn thinks it too.

Yeah, but, Calum,

he wasn't even here at the time.

Doesn't matter.

He heard everything and he agrees

that there's something not right.

Between me and him,

we're gonna find the truth.

- Mom. - Yeah?

I thought you and Elaine got on okay these days?

We do.

Then why'd you do it?

Do what?

Put vodka in her drink.

I saw you and I feel really bad

that everyone's blaming her, but it's not even her fault.

Sweetheart, you just need to trust me.

Okay?

It must seem really strange,

but I did it for a very good reason.

What reason?

They'll explain everything I promise.

Just not right now, okay?

Please.

What are you doing?

Fitting a new alarm.

Your other one was outdated.

This one's got active sensors that can sense movement

outside the house before entry's even attempted.

I can ask about, you know.

Won't be necessary, but thank you.

I mean, the Guards actually have a suspect.

- Who? - Well, they won't divulge.

Best leave it in their hands.

But thank you.

Seriously, I mean it. Thank you.

No problem.

- Hey. - Hey.

Where you off to?

Uh, family dinner at Val's.

Oh, I didn't realize. Well, just gimme ten minutes.

No, I... No.

I think it'd be better if you gave it a miss.

Okay.

In fact, I think, um,

it might be a good idea for us to

press pause on this for now.

Are you talking about our relationship, Frank?

Yes.

Where's this coming from?

How could you do it?

How could you do it to me?

- I was... - I know what you were doing.

I mean, Val knows, Sergeant O'Rourke knows.

I mean, this, this whole

stream of hatred flowing down towards the Aherns.

All this time it was you.

- It's not even my birthday. - Open it.

Does this make you my sugar mama?

You're an idiot.

It's weird how right this all feels.

You being here, being part of the family.

It's like it's all just clicked into place.

Just count me lucky stars, eh?

First family I've ever been part of.

Go back downstairs?

- Yeah. - Sorry, everyone.

I just wanna say a few words to, uh,

formally welcome Finn into our family.

We're really happy that you found us

and on behalf of no one but myself.

I, um,

well, I want to say, sorry.

I'm sorry that I didn't give you a chance

and that I hope you will find it in your heart

- to for-- - Val!

Is that Alanna?

Who do you think you are?

I want you out of my house.

You think you can go around blaming your family's

- shit show on me! - Alanna. For God's sake.

No, Frank, it's time they heard the truth about their mother.

You know why you never knew about your darling brother here?

I will tell you.

'Cause your mother didn't want you to.

She told your dad, if he had anything to do with that baby,

she would leave and take you with her.

- Don't listen to her. - Is this true?

No, of course not.

Of course she's gonna say that! It's just more lies!

Alanna, you don't have to do this.

Yes, I do.

You know, she wrote to your mother?

Repeatedly begging her to leave for precious family alone

and eventually resorting to paying her off.

You liar.

I can explain.

You told us you didn't even know he existed,

but all this time he was out there.

Did you know his mom had died?

No.

He went into care.

- Jenny. - He had a father

- who could've looked after him. - Jenny, leave it.

Jenny, Jenny.

Girls, wait.

Pick your side now, Frank,

because it'll be too late after.

Jesus.

I'm not leaving my family.

One day,

all of the shit you have handed out

will rain down on you in spades.

And I promise you, I will be there to watch it happen.

Mairead!

Mairead!

Mairead.

So sorry, Finn.

What's done is done.

Didn't come here to cause trouble.

It's not your fault.

It's Mom's.

She behaved so cruelly.

For all those years.

Like, depriving you of a family

and us of you.

How could she keep up the lie for so long?

Because she knew if we found out

we'd all learn the truth about our dear mother

and underneath all her talk about protecting us,

it's just our own desire to look after herself first.

I want to bring you home.

As soon as you get out, I'll book you a flight.

Bring you home to Clare.

I want you to learn the family business

because this is your family now.

Val might not like it, but we can deal with her, together.

I told you to just frighten Val.

She looked fucking frightening from where I was standing.

Yeah, well, you could've killed her.

So? What's it to you?

I get it, I do.

You think you're an hard man.

But where I'm from you wouldn't last a minute.

It ends here.

You mess with my family,

I'll end you.

Yeah?
