Welcome to Redwater. We're not here on holiday.

We're here because we're looking for someone.

Oh what you going to do

stand in the middle of town square and shout

"Any blokes out there just found out they've been adopted?"

I want to be here. I really do I want to be here for you.

But Kat please don't mess this up.

Grandad! Grandad we're here! Iris?Help me!IRIS?!

Did you know 'em?

The days of living and dying in one place are gone.

I say this especially to the younger ones.

See the world have adventures.

I know why the London girl's here.

No good will comes of what she's doing.

It would unravel everything we've built here.

Peter isn't your real father. Iris wasn't your birth mother.

Kathleen Moon she's your mother.

Save me.No.

What do you want to do?

What are you doing?!

I got scared something was coming. Something horrible.

SHE GASPS

SHE SCREAMS

The man with haughty looks and arrogant heart...

..I will not endure.

If you lie your whole life you cannot escape the wrath of God.

Bless me Father for I have sinned.

It has been one week since my last confession.

Lance Byrne died by my hand.

DOOR SHUTS

How you feeling love? Bath warm enough?

I wish you'd stop fussing.

I'm your mother. It's my job.

You've never bothered before.

You're right I'm not very good at this am I?

You know I have no idea how to help you.

I could have saved him Mam.

Adeen his heart stopped. That's all there is to it.

It's not!

Up at Cois Dara...

..I saw him.

He was kicking the walls.

When was this?

The day before he...

I should have said something shouldn't I?

No. It all right love.

Here you are Tommy. Here you go. Before it melts good boy.

What are you digging Tommy?

It's a grave.

Been asking about Lance then?

Yeah well you know what kids are like curious aren't they?

It's a good instinct. Too many of us shuffle around death.

You coming later?

Well we didn't really know him did we?

Sure you did. Lance took a real shine to your Kathleen.

You'll be welcome. Besides the whole town will be there.

Thank you.

I want Mum.

She's just at the shops buddy. I want to find her.

Let's just enjoy our ice cream yeah good boy?

HORN BLARES

You not getting out?

I gotta check my mail. It's work stuff.

It's...boring.

Beautiful isn't it? Gets me every time.

Looks can be deceptive.

Oh! Daddy.

I'm so glad you came.

Oh Mum.

Of course I came.

He looks handsome.

Always.

No leave it. The last thing we need is...

..for your daddy to be stuck here.

Mum I doubt there's any danger of that.

Where's Kieran?

Bringing in the bags.

Leave it. It's important to Mammy.

It's hokum. You know it is.

What if it's not?

HORSE NEIGHS

KAT SCREAMS

Big bugger in't he?

You all right?

Wish people would stop asking me that. I'm fine.

I lost my dad a couple of years ago. I'm still not fine.

Mummy!

Oi oi! Want to slow down love?!

I thought you were just going to the shop?

I just wanted time to think.

Right.

Missed out on the ice cream didn't she buddy?

Peter invited us to the dead man's party again.

It's called a wake.

He did mention it yeah.

See they want us there.

It's for people who knew him Kat. That's not us is it?

No your dad's right. Don't want to be disrespectful do we?

Are you sure you won't have some?

I don't do cake Gran.

You like to keep fit do you?

Course he does and isn't he grand looking?

You and your sister always loved it.

Mouse had such a sweet tooth.

That was Daddy's favourite. He said it captured Mouse's smile.

My girl.

How come you still can't make tea? What's wrong with it?

It tastes like piss.

It's not a bit fattening there's no sugar in it.

Only a few raisins and a drop of whisky.

Do you remember that time with the barmbrack and Andy and Dermott?

You stole a barmbrack from the pantry.

Dermott was going to blame it on his dog.

Buttons.Mm-hm.Yes total hero that dog.

Then Andy threw up. Projectile. Totally gave the game away.

Grandad was so cool.

He reckoned he'd knock up a new cake before you got back.

Oh all that smoke. I thought the place was on fire.

Mam have you seen Adeen?

She's not next door at yours?

Andy. Is that you?

I didn't know you'd arrived! How was the flight?

Oh the free bar helped.

Hey there cous! Looking good man.

Yeah. I mean you too.

Granny Ag spoiling you then is she?

AGNES: What else are grandmothers for?

Will you have tea love? ANDY: No I'm grand. Thanks Mum.

Ah put butter on it now.

Seriously Gran. This is so good.

Could Adeen have gone up to see him?

It might be a good thing if she has.

OK well I'll catch yous later yeah?

I'll come with you.

It were Adeen that found him.

That's a girl.

Ah this is Daddy's.

DOG WHINES

No don't give me the sad face.

Want some do you. Here you go one. There you go. Good girl.

Adeen!

Adeen stop! DOG BARKS

Stop!

Stop love.

Adeen!

You go it's your last day at work. I can sort this.

You've already lost her! Well she said she was fine.

Is this about Adeen? "Fine". Did you really just say that?!

I didn't mean she's fine just that she said she was fine.

She's not out the back. She's OK I'm telling you.

She's not OK or fine. What's wrong with you two?!

I mean the poor kid has not been eating or sleeping.

She looks like a Goth and it's not even intentional!

Is her bike still here? Yes because she's on the horse.

Why did you not stop her?

Going full pelt on that brute? I'd like to see you try Roisin.

Let me go.

You told your granny you would set up for the wake.

You know I did try son really I did.

I did well with the cake huh? Three slices.

Cousin Andrew showed you the way did he?

I'll be the size of a truck by the time we leave.

So...

..is it good to be home?

What with your dead grandfather just down the hall?

You know your granny's even got the windows open so his spirit can rise!

You're kidding me. No.

SHE SIGHS

Ten days...of this.

Hey.

We can do it Mom.

Hey. Don't look so worried.

It's just your sister up to her usual tricks.

She's sad about great-grandad.

We all are aren't we?

So let's build him the best fire yeah?

OK Dad.

Found Dad's stash then?

Nothing changes here does it?

Great to see you Andy.

Shame you never made it out to the States again.

Ah it's just hard with the kids you know.

Definitely your mother's son.

I take it that's not a compliment?

So have you seen him yet?

Gran and Mam they're both in bits you know.

And I'm not?

I don't know. Are you?

Don't let Jonjo see. I don't usually.

Can't see how you can survive without it.

Mam thought you wouldn't come.

Kieran made me so she can blame him.

We've missed you you know?

Even Mam has so...

Good man Jonjo that's my boy.

PHONE RINGS

'Is she back?'

No no sign.

Jonjo go get a few more stones there will you?

Well go on.

Have you tried her friends?

She's hardly going to take Enbarr round to a mate's.

She's not on Grandad's beach? You've checked there right?

The beach.

'Yes all right smartarse I'll go now.'

I'm sure this baby of yours is munching on my brain.

SOFT SPEECH

At the hour of our...

Dermott.

Lance came to me.

ENBARR NEIGHS

It's all right Enbarr. It's all right.

Are you OK? Are you OK?

It's OK. Let it go.

It's OK. I've got you.

You took me from my mother.

You have to understand she didn't want you. She gave you away.

No you did this. This is down to you!

You needed a mother and I found you one.

What is it son?

You're loved by us.

You found God in Redwater.

That's why you came here. It was meant.

Don't you see that?

God wanted you raised in Redwater. You were safe here.

You wouldn't be a priest if you'd stayed with her.

Do you understand that?

Now this stays here with us Dermott. Think of your daddy.

This would break him. You know it would.

Yes.

Our Father... Who art in heaven...

Adeen just needs to stop running son...and face it.

Remember that kitten you had got mashed up in the tractor?

You wouldn't stop crying for days.

Yeah you made me pick him up and bury him.

That's right. It's hardly the same thing.

Yeah but son you faced it that was the point.

I'd better get back.

Da...

..thanks.

I should go.

Oh no you don't.

You're still our boy Dermott and I need you here.

Nothing changes that. Come on.

Next time you say you're going to cook I'm going to get a takeaway.

What is it?

Just looking at your holiday pics.

I just wanted one picture.

One? You've got about ten on here!

All right stop that and go and get in the shower?

It's the pan that's manky not me.

We're going out ain't we?

You mean it? The wake?

Just to see him. You've got to promise me.

Nothing more all right?

So what's made you change your mind?

Well cos we never know what's going to happen next do we?

Oh Alfie!

Here.

Well look at you! Hard not to.Roisin.

Well shoot me for making an effort.

Dermott? Is that you? Hey man it's great to see you.

I'm sorry about your grandad. He was a great man.

Yeah. You were close to him right?

You're putting me to shame here.

Well Kieran here is apparently one of those gays.

Hey Mam do we have any more of that baysil? What?

She's doing her poncey American thing again.

It's not poncey it's the way I speak.

Eileen I don't want to see anyone without a drink or something to eat.

I've got this. Why don't you go get changed.

Oh God the apple tarts. They'll be ready.

Mam go on! Go and change.

All right.Yeah.

I'll get the tarts.

Should I go after Grandma or...?

No I will. Don't worry. I'll keep a good eye on her.

Thanks Derm. You're a gem.

I thought a wake went after a funeral.

Not in Ireland.

Tommy remember farms can be dangerous all right?

Good boy.

Kat we don't even know if this Andrew's the right bloke.

Just tell me if you spot him yeah?

You want some popcorn?

Yeah sure.

Who are they?

English on holiday. Daddy took a shine to the wife.

She can fairly drink!Huh!

I like the sound of her already.

That's got to be Lance's other daughter.

Yeah. Didn't know he had one. Yeah.

Whoa where are you going?

Alfie that's Roisin's sister. So?

So I reckon I'd know if my sister kidnapped a baby. All right.

Before Lance died did he seem OK to you?

Fit as a fiddle. You know that. I'm not talking about his health.

Look what were you thinking going into the water like that?

So what was I supposed to do?

How you doing? Have you warmed up yet?

You haven't seen your great-grandad yet have you?

No love don't push it. It'll help her through.

What? Seeing him at rest.

I can't.Now look...

..will you trust your old man on this one?

Yeah?

Yeah.Yeah. You'll be grand I promise you.

Sounds like you've met the whole clan.

This place is like that in't it? Friendly like.

Well that's one word for it.

Not sure it's the one I'd use.

Kat you promised.

All right?

Yeah. It's good to see you.

You too.

Do you mind?What?

This is family business.

Let's give them some space yeah? Thank you Alfie.

I was just trying to talk to him.

They're burying their grandad tomorrow.

So you're not close then you and your sister?

Oh well Daddy always said that we were like a match and kindling.

No prizes for guessing which one of us is which.

She's just got the one son then yeah?

Yeah. Cousin Andy the fit farmer.

Could have been you if we'd stayed. Yeah right.

Kieran's a lawyer. Fast track to keeping his mother in style.

I wanted to be a bum but she just wasn't having it.

So you were in the States when she had Andrew?

Oh no no no that was much later on.

Er you know I was the first one to hold him.

I didn't know that.

Yeah your auntie was with the doctor and I took little Andy

there to the fire and curled up with him and Mouse.

So Andrew was born here was he?

Oh Jesus! Peter Dolan! You scared the life out of me!

Don't touch what you could never afford!

You have never lost it Eileen? I'll set Mammy on you later.

Now I'm proper scared.

Ah Peter.Sorry to hear about your da.Ah.

Kat let's give it up just for now yeah?

Finish our drinks?Yeah.

You know he's got that "butter wouldn't melt" look on him.

The one that drove Granny mad.

I think Daddy's right.

Is that make-up?

It's what they do.

Just to give him a bit of colour you know?

I thought he was a seal.

Well he's been called many things in his life

but I reckon that's a first.

I wanted a pic for Jonjo.

You took some pictures?

I didn't know it was him! Hey it's OK.

Adeen are they still on your phone?

Will you give it to me love? I'll make sure they're gone.

And then I stopped to pick up a shell.

He does look peaceful doesn't he?

You know he'd be the last person who'd want you to be sad Adeen.

So will you come and sing for him?

He always loved to hear you sing.

You got shot by a UFO!

GLASS CLINKS

This is for great-grandad my Double G.

It was one of his favourites.

MUSIC: The Parting Glass

# Of all the money that e'er I've had

# I spent it in good company

# And all the harm I've ever done

# Alas it was to none but me

# And all I've done for want of wit

# To memory now I can't recall

# So fill to me the parting glass

# Goodnight and joy be with you all

# Of all the comrades

# That e'er I've had... OTHERS JOIN IN

# Are sorry for my going away

# And all the sweethearts that e'er I've had

# Would wish me one more day to stay

# But since it falls unto my lot

# That I should rise and you should not

# I'll gently rise and I'll softly call

# Goodnight and joy be with you all

# Goodnight and joy be with you all. #

That was amazing love amazing.

What was it Lance always said?

Don't go getting drunk or who'll hold me up?

Slainte!

CHILDREN SHOUT

What's she doing here?

You are not welcome.

Pete said it was OK...

You've got some nerve. Agnes come on.

We're just going to find Tommy and leave OK?

All your meddling nonsense. How dare you come here?

You have no right to stir this up.

He told you why we came here didn't he?

He was a good man your husband. He cared.

And now he's dead. He listened to me. He understood.

He was an idiot. Was probably the drink talking.

Kat we should go now.

Look you're a mother. Wouldn't you want to find him?

Oh you gave up that right when you let him go.

I didn't know I had a son! AGNES LAUGHS

I was out cold.

They took him before I woke.

Look I was just a kid.

I didn't tell anyone I was pregnant till I was eight months gone.

There's nothing for you here.

Dad have I got a big brother?

Hey listen. Don't worry about it we'll talk about it on the way home.

I hope tomorrow goes well. I will stay away I promise.

Have I got a big brother?

Tommy we'll talk about it later all right?

Come on get in the car.

BELL TOLLS

Come on.

How long have you been there?

Hell of a time eh?

I don't know how it happened Da.

If you're the priest saying that what chance have the rest of us?

Lance made out he was such a great guy didn't he?

But he drank.

Well you could tar me with that brush.

Yeah but you stopped.

Half the time he didn't give a cuss about his family.

You were always saying that.

None of us is without sin.

Isn't that supposed to be your line?

I'll let you use it today if you like.

OK so if you ask me honestly?

Lance was a self-serving rogue but he'd a big heart hadn't he?

Maybe that's the thing you should say when you're stood up there.

No-one's really bad are they? Not like rotten all the way through.

It's kind of nice to think Mouse will be with Grandad now.

Is that crazy?

They always got on.

I think it was because she was the only girl you know?

Stories people were telling about him last night.

I don't remember. I mean Mouse yes but not what happened.

That night out there... not any of it really.

Well that's because you've moved on. That's a good thing isn't it?

I wonder what she'd be like now?

BELL TOLLS

Come on let's go and get ready. Yeah.

We was going to tell you about him.

Your mum's telling the truth buddy all right?

We just haven't found him yet. Then why are we leaving?

Because last night me and your dad decided that we want to get

you back to Spain and we miss the twins don't we?

Flights OK?

Yeah. Just got to print off the boarding passes. That's all.

Leave me here.

Tommy I'd never leave you anywhere. You know that.

You left him!

Tommy come and sit on this for me.

That's it. Bounce up and down a bit.

Right that's it good boy.

Don't give me a hard time.

I want to find my brother. So do I.

Me and you we can find him.

Will you give it a rest?!

Tommy...

..when I found out about him I had a pain...

here...

and it's still there because all my kids

you are my world and now he is too.

So if he's out there somewhere believe me I will find him

no matter how long it takes all right?

He'll be all right once we're on the plane.

Typical Eileen slipping away without telling anyone.

They set off early. I heard the car when I was milking.

What do you want her for anyway? We're all set aren't we?

Solicitor dropped this by. It's your daddy's will.

He wanted us all here. Ever the diva your daddy.

Where did you go on today of all days?

We went to the memorial.

Oh.Well you'd better sit down. We've Daddy's will to read.

Couldn't that wait?

This is what he wanted -

to go to the grave with everything sorted.

I'll um leave you to it.

Padraig would you mind?

Certainly Agnes.

"I Lance Samuel Byrne of Byrne Farm Redwater declare that this is

"my last will and testament.

"To my wife Agnes I leave memories of both good times and bad.

"I hope she will treasure them and forgive me.

"She was always the woman I loved most.

"To my children I leave all my worldly goods..."

LANCE: This includes Byrne Farm Cois Dara and all the farmland

to be divided between them equally.

If he wasn't already dead I'd strangle him myself.

It makes no odds mam.

As far as we're concerned the farm is yours.

Yes she's right. It really doesn't matter.

No sign of your mammy?

Kat have you got room for Tommy's trainers?

I've shut the case.

I'll put them in here then.

If you want it to break - you can't squash it all in.

I just don't want to carry it all right?

What about that bucket and spade? Eh?

CONVERSATION CONTINUES

Right almost done. Just these few bits from the washing line.

Yeah well good luck to you getting all that in the case.

Don't worry about that love. Right Tommy? Come on buddy.

We've got time for one ice cream.

Hold on I thought he was with you.

Tommy?

Give me comfort Lord so that I may do your bidding.

Well look who's here. Except I'm not.

You look like a Weeble.

And you look like shite but do you hear me going on about it?

I need you to get this to the lab photos for enhancement.

You're on maternity. You're not authorised.

Which is why I've put your name on it.

Oh now Bernie...

Thanks Dougie. Appreciate it.

It's probably nothing but fast-track it will you?

BELL TOLLS

SHE MOUTHS

Agnes.

Thank you Dermott.

THUNDER RUMBLES

Tommy!

Tommy!

Tommy!

Tommy!

Tommy!

Come on where are you?

Do you think she'll be all right?

She's been with him forever.

They weren't always happy.

You're not going to rock the boat are you?

I mean about the farm. It's Mammy's it's not ours.

I don't get why he left it to us.

There must have been a reason.

You OK?

Let's get to the pub before we drown eh?

THUNDER CRASHES

Sleep tight Daddy.

Love you.

Tommy run back and find your mam. Go on.

Where's your mammy?

Does it hurt?

What? Dying?

Not if it's your time no.

Was it his?

Yes.

I have to go back to the church.

Come with me. Come on get out of the rain.

We're going to miss the plane at this rate.

No Alfie we can't. I promised.

Tommy's missing. That's all that matters now come on.

Excuse me. You made me a promise.

I know I'm really sorry. It's just... We've lost Tommy.

What do you mean "lost"? Well he was upset after last night.

Now he's done a runner somewhere.

Listen everyone. Listen a minute!

Kathleen and Alfie are looking for Tommy.

What is he about seven?Yeah.

Little boy anyone seen him?

Come on he's probably back at the house.

Wait. He was at the church. Just as the rain started.

Are you sure?Yeah.

I... Sorry. I told him to run and look for you.

I should have waited.

Come back if you can't find him. We'll get folks out looking.

Thank you I appreciate it. Sorry.

My God. Dermott.

What?

It's nothing. I won't be long.

Mam...

She's beautiful isn't she? The way every mother should be.

My mum's beautiful.

She's not pure though.

No mother is as pure as the Virgin.

People let you down. Always. Time and time again.

My mum doesn't. She's not like that.

She's like the sun. She makes me warm.

Have you found him?

No we haven't.

He's looking for his brother.

What you told him?

Yeah we had to. He heard too much.

Please wait here.

Dermott? Are you here?

Well would you look at that?

Tommy!

What... What you doing? I ain't being funny but...

I hope you don't mind.

He just wanted to know what it was like.

Mum I did it. Yeah come on mate you can tell us on the way.

We need to make a move if we're going to catch this plane.

But we can't go. He's right.

You can't go.

Now Dermott remember what we said.

Mum I did it. I found my brother.

It's you?

Yes Kathleen.

I'm your son.
