Carl...

Carl...

Carl! Aah! Carl!

Morning.

- Coffee? - Err...

Yeah, yes. That would be lovely, thank you.

Have you lost something?

No, I just can't seem to find where I left my er...

That?

Shiv?

Shiv, you're going to be late.

What the hell has she been up to?

Oh...

The little bitch!

So should we like...

Do we need to talk about...?

Last night?

Thought it was pretty good.

Yeah. Thought it was pretty...

Very good too. It's just umm...

Where does Kristen think you are now?

I do all-nighters all the time.

The thing you have to understand about Kristen, she's European.

So it's not like...

She's great at all the business stuff

and she's 40 so a baby's like...

But it's not like...

You know? Okay.

She seems pretty...

Oh shit!

Shit! Shit, shit! I'm supposed to open the gallery!

Why you stressing? It's ten minutes away.

Look at my clothes!

I'm covered in fucking tapenade!

Oh yeah.

That was fun.

When are we doing it again?

Okay. I think things got a bit out of hand last night.

What?

We had fun last night.

We were criminals.

But it's not what I should do.

What? Fun's illegal now you're sober?

No.

I can't, I have to go.

I have to go.

We had a good time!

Shit.

I have the venue shortlist down to four.

Nothing wanky, just in, out, engagement drinks.

Do you want to come to viewings or is it quicker if I do it?

It's quicker if I do it.

There was something I...

Oh, rings!

Rings? I didn't get you an engagement ring.

I know you don't want a ring.

But I should do something to mark it.

We don't have sex!

Like, we never have sex.

Well, not like never.

Fourteen months.

Fourteen?

I remember it was after my half marathon in Clontarf.

Well it's not like I haven't tried.

I know. I've tried loads of times to...

I know, I know.

It's actually been me who's been...

I thought you were just tired from your triathlon.

So what, you just don't want to have sex with me?

What, no, no! Well, kind of like...

Sorry, that came out wrong.

I mean I don't want to have sex with just you?

Now, right, erm...

We've been together since we did our leaving cert.

We've missed so much.

And, and the truth is I suppose

recently I've been taking my sex life

elsewhere.

You're having an affair?

What, no! Caroline, I would never do that, no!

It's err...

It's more like fantasies.

Fantasies. What sort of fantasies?

Okay, umm...

Okay, there's this new teacher in school

and she's half Spanish.

And, err, quite curvy and I...

I think about riding her.

Okay. She's young and hot, that's normal.

And the guidance counsellor, Miss Riordan,

and she's 60. 60!

Grey hair and all I can think about

is what she'd look like bent over a desk

with her knickers around her ankles.

The gym teacher's pretty hot too

and he's mid-40s. He?

And some of the lads at the track.

You want to sleep with men?

I want to sleep with everyone, Caroline!

I want to try everything, you know!

I can't get it out of my head!

There's S&M, there's water sports.

There's stuff with clowns, like.

I mean, we've never tried any of those things!

Clowns? I'm just saying

we need to branch out more, you know?

We could try three-ways or... or an orgy!

Or, look, we could just

we could just do it in the car

on the side of the dual carriageway in full Lycra

with some of people watching or something,

you know?

Or whatever... you're into.

Well, I'm not into Lycra!

Okay, okay! What are you into?

I'd love to know, honestly.

Let's... What are you into?

I can't talk about this now, Rory!

I've got an engagement party to organise.

For fuck's sake.

Yeah, sorry.

Shiv, what are you doing?

Did you go home last night?

No.

No I didn't. I umm

ended up with someone.

Who?

Just a stranger.

Total random. Never met him before in my life.

Where did you meet?

The street.

Yeah, I just... he was just there on the street.

Homeless.

No.

No, he wasn't homeless.

We went to his studio

apartment. Studio apartment... It was very nice.

Well, nothing like a good fuck to relieve stress!

You were so upset yesterday.

You feel better?

Oh, took my mind off things.

We have a delivery arriving any minute.

So tell your friend Karen not to hang around.

Karen? Shit.

I have a spare dress in my office if you want to borrow.

It's maternity. It should fit.

Look, I know what you're gonna say...

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have tried to make you share last night.

It was bang out of order. Oh.

I was worried I wouldn't find another speaker.

I mean, there's only so many times

I can wheel out the old father-in-law

Halloween party hand-job story, you know?

The Halloween... Anyway.

I came to say sorry, make me amends...

Is that a maternity dress?

Mmm. It's Kristen's.

Why are you wearing it?

To see if I can pull off the look.

I don't think you can.

I can see you're having a hard time

and you are at a very delicate point in your recovery.

I am? Six months.

You think you know it all.

You start going out more, going to meetings less.

Sleeping with totally unsuitable people.

How are you going with that moral inventory?

It's good, yeah.

You got it all out?

Mm-hmm. All the lies?

Yep. All the manipulations?

Yes. All the addicty

self-justifications for your own bad behaviour?

Absolutely.

When can I see it?

Shiv! Delivery!

I have to get that. Tonight?

Erm, I don't think...? Tomorrow?

Could I call you?

There's nothing else I should know about?

Sorry. I really have to go.

Just give me one second.

Anthony... Can I have a word?

Jesus Christ.

It smells like a fucking lock-in in here.

You out last night?

Uh, uh.

Giving all out with the lads?

It wasn't pride was it?

We normally stick up some balloons.

My sister got engaged last night.

Ah, great.

And my dad left my mum.

What? It's fine.

Everything okay with...?

Yeah, they're taking it.

The house I showed them?

They're paying the asking.

Want to close as soon as possible.

So I made the sale? Err, yes and no.

I didn't make a sale?

Well they...

Look,

they've asked

that you be taken off any cut of the commission.

What? They say you behaved

err, inappropriately at the viewing.

Me? He was the one who...

Shh! Keep your voice down, Jesus Christ!

The last thing we need is some fucking

me too shit going down again.

But I made that sale.

I know you did

and we'll acknowledge that at the monthly report.

Look, this is bullshit!

Do you want to take the day to cool off?

I don't need to cool off.

Listen, clearly you're having one or two personal issues.

His dad's after leaving, yeah.

His dad.

Anyway guys...

You alright there Bernie?

I'm fine, thank you.

I, err,

saw Tom packing up the other morning.

Everything okay?

Yeah. We're just taking some time apart.

Oh... Sorry to hear that.

Marriage is a tricky business.

If there's anything you need, just shout.

Any word from Pam?

No.

Still, no idea when she's coming home?

Afraid not.

Ha.

Cause I found a shoe...

A shoe? Whose shoe?

I think you know very well whose shoe.

I honestly have no idea

what you're talking about.

It was right there in your bin.

Were you going through my bins?

That's private property, Bernie.

You've no right to rifle through people's rubbish.

Pam was my friend.

She's not nothing and she's not nobody,

she's not going to just disappear off the face of the earth

because you've found someone to replace her with!

Women aren't just replaceable, you know!

We matter!

State o' you.

No wonder your husband left.

You stay away from my property, you ugly old bint,

or I'll get the guards.

Have you considered a venue?

Well, funny you should ask...

Look who's here!

You're engaged!

You only just heard?

Ah, yeah, you were busy last night.

Doing what?

She hooked up with a guy on the street.

What? Oh my god, Shiv, who was he?

It doesn't matter. You're engaged!

Why are you engaged?

You've reached Tom Sheridan.

Please leave a message.

Hey!

Ant!

That how it is then?

Just trading one family for another.

Who is this?

Err, this is Lee. Mina's grandson.

Hiya, Lee.

Maybe you should go back into the house.

Why don't you hang out for a sec,

I've a few things to say to your new dad.

I've a few things to say to your new dad. Why aren't you at work?

Why aren't you at work?

Why aren't I at work? Good question, yeah.

Probably because I lost a sale today.

Probably because I'm about to get fired

from a job I just started.

But that's no surprise to you, is it?

You knew I was a waster.

I never said that.

I think you're a piece of shit too!

Ant! I wasn't good enough, was I?

I don't know what you're getting at.

Little gay boy playing with the girls

instead of being on the rugby pitch like Carl.

Just say it! Say it!

Now, just stop it. Say it.

Just stop!

Ow!

Sorry.

Ow!

Fuck.

I'm in this shitty job because of you!

I'm wearing this poxy suit cause of you,

but it's not good enough.

It'll never be good enough cause I'm not fucking Carl!

Carl is dead, do you hear me?

He's fucking dead, but I'm here!

I'm fucking here... CRYING.

Shh. You're alright.

Come on.

There's something I need to ask.

About Carl.

And no bullshit.

Okay.

Did you love him more than me?

What? God no...

I saw you with Lee, playing football.

Like you used to play rugby with Carl.

Yeah, Lee's an only child.

His dad's not in the picture. I'm only trying to...

But you looked happy.

You never looked that way with me.

Yeah, but sure, you're not interested in rugby.

Well...

Not for the sport, no.

Look...

I get it.

Carl did law.

Carl was straight.

Carl made you proud.

I don't.

You're right.

I don't treat you the way I treated Carl.

But it's not cause you don't like rugby

and it's not because you're gay.

It's because

the day Carl died,

my heart literally stopped.

When you lose a child, it's so err,

so unnatural.

The pain is so extreme.

It's like every nerve in your body shuts down

just so you can keep going.

And I kept going.

I got up every morning.

I went to work. I was there.

Except I wasn't.

You know, I was like a ghost haunting me self.

Didn't even realise

till I... I met Mina.

That's the da you had.

Carl had the one made of flesh and blood,

but you got that... and...

And I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I really am.

If I've been hard on you,

it's only because I want you

to be able for whatever life is gonna throw at you.

But I'm...

I'm going to do better.

From now on, I'll do the things that you're into.

Plays or, err, saunas or you know, whatever.

Thanks, love.

Can I stay here tonight?

Course you can.

What are you doing?

What do you mean? With Rory.

You were supposed to talk, not propose.

We did talk.

When? This morning.

We had a big talk.

So, you talked to him about...

We acknowledged there is a problem

and we're going to

explore things.

That's great. Yeah.

It's a really great sign of your relationship.

It's all worked out perfectly.

So, how was your meaningless sex last night?

It was err... amazing.

Really? With a random?

Yeah, it wasn't random.

Err... It was Jack.

What?

I didn't mean it to happen.

I was upset with everything going on with mum and dad,

and Ant showed up here with Carl's death cert...

You're disgusting!

How could you sleep with.

How could you sleep with a pregnant woman's boyfriend?

A pregnant woman's boyfriend?

You slept with a married man too!

But that's completely different!

Cause he didn't get it in ye?

You're you!

What is wrong with you?

I did not judge you when you came home

with cum stains on your skirt!

I knew it was bullshit.

All this, "I've changed. I'm doing the work."

I am doing the work.

Oh, give yourself whatever self-pitying

label you want, Shiv: Alcoholic, addict.

Maybe the actual truth is you're just a selfish bitch!

If you're really thinking

of having the party here,

we should do some planning.

Are you free for supper?

Totally.

Good.

Shiv, can you lock up?

Err, sure.

I just have to meet some buyers of Jack's at the Harper first.

Very boring but very rich. It won't take long.

Well, if it's just quick.

We'd ask you to join

but we'll just be talking about wedding

and babies and boys, so...

I already have plans.

Bernie!

Bernie, I know you're in there.

Anthony. Mina.

Listen, thanks for letting me kip here tonight.

How long is your father staying here?

What do you mean?

Another few days? Another week? What?

He's not staying here.

He's moved in.

Moved in? Here? What!

Err, it's Mum.

Well, don't answer it.

She mustn't know about this.

Where are you gonna go?

Is this risky enough for you?

Jack!

Jack!?

Caroline and I are going now!

Uh, huh.

You're gonna leave me alone with these Americans?

I think you can manage.

Actually, I need to pee.

Don't use that one.

There's something wrong with it.

It's gross.

Okay.

Don't wait for me.

Okay.

Don't leave me alone too long

with these fecking Yanks, yeah?

Yeah.

Jesus fucking Christ.

Jesus Christ.
