Can I ask about my father? Do I look like him?

You're you and that's all that matters.

You want to sell don't you?

We're potless. Ro's been through it all there's no money.

There was never any money.

I think I'm seeing things. I got scared tonight.

Like something was coming. Something horrible.

Mouse! Mouse!

I should have seen this coming.

Look at me. Hotshot lawyer afraid to paddle.

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

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

I thought we'd finished with all this now your dad's gone.

Tell that to Mam.

She's right though. It's important for the kids.

And what about you? What's right for you?

I can't.

I'm not going back to the States. I'm going to stay here.

This is my home. It's where I want to be.

I think it's time we headed back.

This is all moving too fast Kat.

It's done now!It's not though is it? Cos he'll find out.

And what about me? Haven't I been through enough?

Dermott deserves to know the truth.

So the kitchen can go here. I'm thinking open plan that way

people can eat and watch the cooking as it happens.

So it'll be like a restaurant?

A cookery retreat.

And don't worry I'll point them in your direction to get merry.

What's a cookery retreat when it's at home?

It's a posh person's holiday.

You know not all of us look at relaxation as a form of weakness.

The new Cois Dara will be an experience

an escape from their hectic city lives.

Maybe they'd be interested in my sculpture?

No-one's going to want to lug a six-foot piece of wood home on

the plane you eejit.

I don't know. They might.

Bit of authentic Irish culture.

Authentic Ireland that what you're giving them?

Hey. We could even do tours of the farm?

Aww that's a great idea. Huh!

We could wear costumes bonnets maybe Mam?

We could yell "Top of the Morning"

while juggling potatoes in one hand and milking a cow with the other?

You know I'm so glad to see that your entering into the spirit

of things.Some of us have got actual work to do.

Don't go far. Dinner in 20.

HORN HONKS

Go on. This place still gives me the willies.

Kieran?

Kieran?

Kieran? Come on mate stop messing with me.

Hey.

What're you thinking?

I'm thinking my mother's a lunatic.

Hey Derm. Hiya.

Oh hey Dermott. Father.

Slacking off Da?

Oh blame me. I insisted he take a break.

What can we do for you Dermott?

I actually just drove past Cois Dara and I saw that

there was a light in the window.

I think you might have a tramp in there again.

Kieran not told you? We're doing it up.

Eileen has grand plans for a family business.

Well I'd like Kieran to agree.

You know he's a stubborn as an old boot

but I'm hoping that Andy might be able to twist his arm.

They're down the pub now. Can you imagine it?

A cookery school in Redwater? It'll be amazing!

Huh Mam?

Oh amazing is the word.

Yeah that's great!

Work? Uh-huh.

Don't they know Grandad's just died?

In the States compassionate leave means taking your coffee break.

Sorry. I'm all yours.

So you haven't told me what you think?

About what?

Mum's plans? You know she wants me to stay in Redwater.

What do you want?

Well I have a panic attack if I can't get reception for more

than an hour. I don't know. I mean...

This place just doesn't feel like me any more. I've changed.

Not to me.

Part of me really wants to but another part's like

I've got a job an apartment I've got a whole life back in the States.

I can't just give that up. Can I?

No I suppose not.

Not if it makes you happy.

Does it?

Hi.

Dermott not out with you tonight?

Spur of the moment thing. PHONE RINGS

Sorry. Got to take this.

Did he seem all right to you?

Kieran?

Dermott.

Dunno yeah. Why?

No it's just in church earlier on he seemed a bit...

No reason.

That my rolly?

So what is it?

What's what?

Well you only ever smoke when you're in a mood.

It's Eileen and her stupid plan for Cois Dara.

We're fine as we are.

Why do we all have to dance to her bloody tune?

We don't. It's her neck on the line.

And it's not like you've ever had plans for the old house.

So?So why you acting like she's stepping on your toes?

I'm not.

I still find it hard to take in.

Little Dermott in a dog collar.

He's a credit to you.

Well so's Kieran to you.

Oh sometimes I wonder if I did the right thing. You know moving away.

I mean Dermott's processed his feelings at the time. But Kieran?

I don't know.

You did what you had to. Thought about getting away myself.

But I never had your guts.

Guts? Hardly.

You know when you lose a child you've nothing left to be scared of.

Roisin thinks I've totally lost the plot.

THEY LAUGH

What do you think?

I think you're terrific. I mean your plans.

They're terrific.

Go on.

What?

I thought you wanted me to stay?

I thought we'd come to an understanding. What's the problem?

You're dreaming. Where's the money going to come from?

We can barely support one family on the profits we bring in

never mind funding a new business.

I'm going to get investors. I've got contacts in the States.

What?

This isn't America Eileen.

It's not the promised land it's a tiny village in Ireland.

Really? And there's me thinking we grew up in Disneyland.

Might as well have.

Been away so long you don't remember what it's like here.

What it's really like.

So show me.

MURMUR OF CONVERSATION

How are you?

Lads.

Hi Dermott. How you doing?

This is set to be a regular thing.

Your ma tells me you're staying in Redwater?

Typical Mum. Nothing's been decided.

It would be great for me and Andy wouldn't it?

The old gang back together again I mean you know.

You two always were thick as thieves.

Sure yeah. Me and Bernie'd love having Kieran around.

How is Bernie? She's grand yeah why?

I'm just surprised she let you out so close to the due date.

Trust me I'm the one having to rein her in.

She's down the station right now.

Oh right I thought she was on maternity leave?

She is yeah.

But she's latched onto something on Adeen's phone won't let it drop.

What's that?

Some wild-goose chase Derm. Something to do with Grandad.

Madness.

Right. Poor Bernie.

I expect she's just worried about the baby really.

Anyway have a good night boys. Duty calls.

Right. See you Derm. Later guys.

See you later Derm.

Dermott! I tried calling you. I left a message.

Do you want to join us we're just about to order food?

Erm I'd love to but unfortunately one of my

parishioner's has cancer and his wife's convinced herself it's his

last night and she's not in a good way. I really have to go.

Yeah. Course you do.

I'll give you a call.

Don't take it to heart Kat.

I'm not he's in demand. I'm dead proud.

Come on then. Who's hungry?

Come on sit down. Good boy. Right sit yourself down.

Sausage chips and peas and I'm going to have some fish.

DOG PANTS

SHE BURPS

Very lady-like.

Trust me I was holding back.

Oh. Feels like a hurricane dodging round a bowling ball in here.

Then why are you at work anyway?

If I had an excuse like yours wild horses wouldn't drag me back.

An excuse? You know what I mean.

I told you. I'm waiting for an e-mail.

Here for a while then?

You're not skiving off and leaving me on my tod.

What if I went into labour?

Relax.

Put on the kettle then so.

Remind me why you're not married Dougie?

Oh my God. That smell!

You can't be serious?

Ow!

Redwater Garda.

How come you're not covered?

Go on in to the house. Get warm.

I'll finish up here.

Nah. I'm fine.

What do your friends think about you staying? Won't you miss them?

There's Skype.

And men?

Sometimes the bigger the sea

the harder it is to find the fish you want.

At least there are some fish.

There's fish everywhere Ro.

Got your eye on someone?

That'll be telling.

Peter's not into women like that you know.

Like what? I'm just saying.

I don't want you to make a fool of yourself.

Who said anything about Peter?

Oh come on it's pretty obvious who you meant.

Why wouldn't he be interested in women like that?

He's just not the kind of man you'd meet in America.

Exactly. That's why I like him.

Call come in some kids are starting fires on the ridge.

If it's Adeen give her a clip for me.

Oh!

DOOR OPENS

DOOR SHUTS

Hello?

Oh you made me jump.

I found a stray.

Thought you'd know what to do with him.

You can ring the emergency dog warden or you can keep him

for the night

but if you do that you'll have to report it officially tomorrow.

Oh I'll take him home then.

Big old softie aren't you?

You're a workaholic. Shouldn't you be at home with your feet up?

Much more peace and quiet here.

I saw Andy in the pub actually.

Typical. We're supposed to be saving money.

He said you were working on something personal?

Did he? Is it Lance?

Bloody Andrew. Come on Bernie it's only me.

Came as a shock to everyone you know.

Something like that happening here at Redwater. And to Lance.

It could be nothing.

But?

Lance went swimming every day. He was fit

healthy. Could make me blush coming out of his wet suit.

Well that's proof positive then.

I don't know. Something feels off.

Have you got any evidence?

You're right. It's probably nothing.

Haven't been sleeping too well lately.

Are you going to take him home then?

You can talk to me Bernie.

You came to me once. Just after Jonjo was born.

Things were strained between you and Andy.

That was in confession.

Oh of course and everything you have ever told

me has stayed in the strictest confidence.

I just want you to know that you're not alone.

Alone? What does that mean? Andy and I are fine.

Of course you are.

Shall I make us a cup of tea? I got one thanks.

I'm sorry Dermott but I need to be getting on.

I'll be seeing you. Right.

PHONE RINGS

Hello Redwater Garda.

No the pictures aren't here yet. Can you send them again?

I'll still be here.

I'm sorry he just ran in here. The little scamp.

Well you've got him now.

Yeah. Come on.

Dermott move.

It's all this talk about Lance it's really got to me.

I can't discuss my work.

Please if there's anything I can do to help.

Get out of my way.

Bernie. Please. Please. Please Bernie.

BERNIE GROANS

Tommy will you sit down? Alfie.

Hey put your backside down there young man and finish those peas.

Boys will act the maggot unless you take a firm hand.

He's full. Go on you can play if you want Tommy.

May I? It was so nice to see you at mass earlier.

You're practically locals now.

Yeah it's lovely. Everyone's been so welcoming.

So you're intending to stay?

No.

Well we're not are we?

We're playing it by ear.

See that's what I'm talking about. Dilly-dallying.

It's not good for him.

I know you want to stay for Dermott but he's the adult here.

He can come and visit you in Spain.

Tommy's the one you've got to prioritise

not to mention your other two.

Are you saying I'm a bad mother?

Kat Kat. Sweetheart that's not what she's saying.

All I'm saying is that this is when they're shaped.

Dermott needs me.

Does he? Dermott's changed you saw his behaviour at mass.

Seems to me you're the one who's upsetting him.

Oh. Help me.

OK.

Call an ambulance.

Did you call Andrew? I couldn't get through.

What?

Sorry Bern. He must have had his phone switched off.

Did Andrew come to you?

Bernie you know I can't discuss anything he might have told me.

Has he talked to you about us? You know I can't discuss it.

Anything he's told me I can't say.

I thought this baby would fix things. I did it for him.

And now he's not even here.

OK just breathe. Just breathe.

That's it. Keep breathing.

Oh sweet Jesus. Why can't men give birth?

But your mum said you were both staying?

That's Mum for you. Gets ahead of herself.

She's a breath of fresh air all right.

Is it just me or has Peter got a thing for my mum?

Ah it's lovely. You and Dermott could be step-brothers.

Ah. Hilarious.

Look earlier in Cois Dara I saw Mouse's name on the wall.

Must be hard being back here Kieran.

You can talk to me you know.

It's stupid. I've been having nightmares.

About the accident?

We're all back there.

It's so vivid. The freezing cold water.

Voices shouting in the dark.

And there's Mouse.

Her hand you know? Except...

Except this time I reached out and I grab her.

I grab her and I pull her onto the boat and...

..she laughs.

Like... How stupid I nearly drowned.

And I laugh back.

Then I wake up.

It must have come as a bit of a shock.

You know Kat it wouldn't hurt to slow things down a bit.

Maybe take your time yeah?

I miss the twins so much. You know that don't you?

Of course. But I can't. Not yet.

Not till I'm sure.

Sure of what?

I don't know exactly. But I just know that Dermott needs me.

KNOCK AT THE DOOR

All right. Hi.

I just delivered Bernie's baby. What?

I need to see Kathleen.

Is Bernie all right? I mean what happened.

Where is she? What's that on your jumper?

Is that blood? Is she upstairs?

Yeah she's just got off to sleep.

I'd rather not wake her.

You going somewhere?

Yeah I'm just looking. Got to go home at some point.

Have you got a problem with us?

What?

You're jealous? Yeah.

Dermott I promise you I'm not jealous.

Agnes was right we should get home focus on our boys.

Agnes?

No Dermott...

Come on get out. Get out.

DOG BARKS

DOG WHIMPERS

Did I hear voices?

No it's just the telly. Go back to sleep.

What happened?

Jeez I turn my back for five minutes.

You gave me such a fright. How're you feeling?

Where were you? What?

Dermott said he tried to call you when the contractions started.

What? No he didn't.

Your phone was off. He couldn't get through.

I was so scared.

I'm sorry Bernie. I'm so sorry.

Don't leave us again.

GATE OPENS

Hello?

Oh!

The door was open.

It's late. Everyone's at the hospital.

You heard? The baby's fine.

Why don't you want me to have a mother Agnes?

Well don't be ridiculous.

I'm happy you've found Kathleen even after she let you go.

But you have a life here Dermott. It's your calling.

Calling?

Is that what this is?

It's been a long night.

That implies a choice.

Did I choose to live here alone?

It all comes down to those first few moments.

You're tired you're emotional.

I held that baby in my hands...

..and I think I felt what you must have felt.

I finally understood what it meant.

You committed the most barbaric violation against nature there is.

You ripped me from my mother and that's the moment.

You weren't ripped from anyone Dermott

you were lifted from chaos and given to your mother.

Now I understand why this has been hard for you.

It's no wonder that you're questioning things doubting.

I don't want your sympathy.

All I'm saying is that it doesn't matter where you come from

or who you come from.

This is your home.

You're like a grandson to me.

And Kieran and Andrew think of you as their cousin.

No Cois Dara.

Nobody even told me.

Do you honestly believe that Eileen could set up

a business here without your help?

You're the backbone of this community.

You're the person we look to for guidance.

I'm sure we'd be lost without you.

Take tonight.

If you hadn't been there Dermott...

Oh but something called you.

And you answered.

CAR APPROACHES

Come. Dermott. Come.

How is she? She's OK. They're both OK.

Oh thank God. Thanks to Dermott.

Hero of the hour.

You lads should wet the baby's head.

Hey. Why not? Huh? You must be buzzing.

Won't be able to sleep.

Yeah. Dermott?

I don't know.

Ah come on. Wouldn't be the same without you.

Get away. Yeah Granny's right.

Could be a widower right now if it wasn't for you.

Ah go on with your cousins.

All right yeah.

All right.Right pints it is.

Have you money? I do.

Guys I've got a better idea. Follow me.

Come on.

KNOCK AT THE DOOR

Just wanted to say night.

Congratulations on becoming a granny again.

Hm. Granny. God I feel ancient sometimes.

Yeah but it's a small price to pay.

Perfume?

Oh yeah. I can still smell the pig shite.

Can barely remember when I last wore some.

Pretty.

Night.

Night.

PHONE DINGS

Here is to Andrew's beautiful baby boy. Hey!

So what're you going to call him?

Well Dermott obviously.

What. Come on I just delivered your baby.

Yeah. It's just Bernie usually decides and she's got weird taste in

these kind of things so.

Had you going though.

Hey Bernie said you tried to call Andy when she went

into labour.

Yeah. I did. Must've been out of reception.

It's funny I was getting calls from the office so...

Really?

Yeah.

What? Are you saying I didn't try?

No.

Bernie was screaming in pain I didn't want to leave her.

I went to try and call him and when I couldn't get through I went

back by her side. It's OK Derm no-one's...

She wouldn't even be here if I hadn't stopped by. Yeah.

So why did you stop by?

I found a dog. A stray. I wanted to report it.

So where is it?

I don't know. Must have run off.

I got your text.

I was thinking about Cois Dara.

Yeah what about it?

Well I'd like to help out.

Erm you know drum up some business Bible study

youth groups that kind of thing.

Ah yeah I don't know.

I mean it's early days

I don't even know if I want to be involved.

Right yeah of course. I mean..

Well if you do I'd like to be involved. Yeah. Yeah.

That's a nice thought Dermott but

I think Mum wants to keep it in the family.

Right yeah.

Sorry.

Here give us that.

Derm?

Let's do something.

Come on! When did you two turn into a pair of old grannies?

Come on! Come on. Come on.

THEY WHOOP

Here we go.

Is that a good idea? We've all been drinking.

Geronimo!

And again and again and again and again!

You can tell you've got a ticket to heaven. Come on. Give us a go.

Andy come on.

No it's fine it's fine it's good. Wait a minute don't...Yeah!

It's not safe. "It's not safe Andy."

I heard that tree crack.

Go. Go. Go.

That branch might be rotten.

Your turn now.

Yeah you're all right.

It's cool it's a buzz.

What? You not man enough?

That's it buddy.

Yeah.Go. Go. Go. Go.Woohoo.

That's it good good come on. Again and again and again.Whay!

We'll swing you back.

Help! Help!

Mouse! Mouse!

Mouse!

Mouse!

Don't let go. Dermott save me!

No!

Grab my hand. Come on.

Come on.

It's OK. OK.

We're too old for this.

Not too old to make eyes at my sister though.

I'm a single man. So you're interested?

That's why you brought me here? To reclaim your territory.

Stop me moving on?

No. No.

Daddy dying and Eileen coming back it just made me think.

I miss you.

You want to start sneaking around again? Lying to everyone?

Padraig?It doesn't have to be like that.

We're not old Peter.

This could be our chance.

Run off. Never look back?

Why not? We talked about it often enough.

Talk.

Dream of living in the city do you remember?

Where people were rude and you can't see the stars for

the pollution and sirens would keep us awake.

And we'd live in a bedsit.

You'd go to medical school and I'd train to be a chef.

We'd work hard and then we'd play hard as well. We'd go to

gigs and dance and meet people and talk.

And make love.

20 year. 20 years Ro.

That's how long it's been since we last came here last did this.

I know.

And I look back and I think why?

Why did I waste my life?

Oh waste? You have a family a business.

I live with my mother.

So leave if that's what you want. Leave.

The only person stopping you is yourself.

So you don't want me any more?

No. I don't know. It's not even about that.

I've changed.

Those dreams aren't mine any more.

I've learnt to be happy with what I've got.

Sorry Ro.

Right daddy-oh I'm going to turn in. OK.

Take Jonjo's room. Towels in the bathroom.

Right. Sleep well guys.

Night Derm.

Will you be warm enough? I'll be fine.

Night then.

Andrew...

Can we talk?

I got to get some sleep.

Get the house ready for my boy for Bernie.

I just need a friend. That's all.

What is it?

Something happened...

..back there.

I remembered something.

INDISTINCT VOICES

Did you get a message on your phone tonight?What?

Saying you had a missed call? No.

If Dermott had tried you would have.

You're saying he deliberately didn't call me? Why?

What has this got to do with you remembering something?

That night

when we were clinging to the hull Auntie Iris was yelling for

help and Dermott let her go. So?

If that had been Mouse. If I'd even gotten close...

What are you saying Kieran?

I don't know. There's something off about him.

Something not right.

You're upset. It's understandable.

Upset?

Look you two have always had this competitive thing going on.

You got your pride hurt tonight.

Is that really how you see me? You think I'm that petty.No.

That's what it sounds like. No.

I think the world of you. Always have. Always will.

Don't go back to America.

Bernie...

..she needs you.

Doesn't mean we can't be friends. Does it?

Should get some sleep.
