That's good.
Ah, Dan. Hang on.
Pretty pathetic. No, it was really good.
You can't be doing that. Stick to the programme.
Rest is just as important as exercise.
Sorry. She's right. We shouldn't be rushing things.
The sooner I get out, the sooner we can get on with our lives.
Hi, Robbie. Robbie. Carol.
How's things? Grand.
Good.
I have some business to discuss with you about The Station.
Look, I'll leave you to it, but no more of this, right?
See ya. I should head off as well.
Stay. No, you have business. I'll see you.
This afternoon? Yeah, sure. Robbie.
Good luck.
You two have a row or something? No.
I need you to have a look at these.
So, Ben and Zoe like it, yeah? Yeah.
But Are the classes not very big? Compared to what?
To other schools, with smaller classes.
Small classes, big fees.
Is money not a factor in this? It is for you, apparently.
The local school was good enough for us.
I hated it.
But that was just me, I'm sure it's improved a lot since, Jo.
Look, I'm just looking at options. I just want what's best for Ruth.
We all want what's best for our children.
Of course, Jo. I understand.
Money can be a factor, I know that.
But it's your child's education
you have to find the best you can.
Yes, Jo, thank you, thank you. And if you can afford it...
Anyway, I have to go, I have to meet a client.
I shall see you later.
Yeah.
I was thinking Dean and myself might go off somewhere for the weekend.
I hate to see him hanging around the house, brooding on stuff.
He's moved back, right? I hope so. Then he should get a job.
I don't mind looking after him, for a bit that is.
He's a big boy, Leo.
What?
Just he's changed so much since he went away.
He's not a young lad anymore.
So don't treat him like one. My lad, when he was having his troubles?
I had to walk away. It was the best thing I did. And the hardest.
Yo.
Yeah, absolutely. Work, so... I'll see you later, OK?
Yeah, where's the pickup?
Damien, right? Er, yeah.
Paula.
Leo? Yeah. Hi.
How are you?
You've a handyman business? Me and the partner.
He does the handyman, I look after shop.
Any work going? For Dean? Er, Dean's a chef.
He's not doing that anymore. He's looking for something casual.
Till he gets himself sorted. Right. I'll see what we have going.
Don't tell him I said. I don't want him to think I was interfering.
No, Of course not. Great. Thanks. See you.
Hi, Dermot.
Oh. Is someone in hospital?
Er, no, for her indoors. Caoimhe's moved in with me.
Just following orders, so? No, it's just a present.
The first flush of romance. Only messing. It's great. Congratulations.
Cheers. So, how are things with you? I took that job.
It's too good to turn down.
Yeah, 140 grand? Have they told you who you have to kill yet?
Myself. It's a quarry. It's kind of like working in chain gang. Tough.
I could stand it for a year. Then we'll be set up.
Hey! So, Australia? Sorry?
Damien was saying himself and Caoimhe have moved in together.
He was talking about going on holiday, Australia.
Yeah? Yeah, maybe.
I was telling him we took a holiday there.
But don't say anything. It's a surprise.
There's surprises and then there's horror. Spiders, snakes, sharks.
I'd check with Caoimhe first. We survived, didn't we?
I'd check with her. Yeah.
Anyway, look, I'll see youse later. See you later.
"Robbie. How's it goin'?" Like we hadn't seen each other in weeks?
Just when I saw you, I got a bit thrown. Dan noticed.
He asked were we having a row, I said no
and then we started talking about The Station.
I'm sorry. All this sneaking around is doing my head in.
We're doing it for Dan.
What about doing things for us? Just for a little while longer.
I nearly told him.
A couple of days ago, I was sitting by his bed
and I thought, "I can't do this. I have to tell him the truth."
Did you say anything? No.
Did you start to say something?
Did Dan hear - Carol. I didn't say anything.
Maybe that's why he thinks there's something going on. There is.
I thought we weren't going to do this, for Dan's sake.
Right now, all I'm thinking about is you.
So, lower back, buttocks and legs. Yes, I know.
Then you should be getting good at it, let's see you.
Do you think there's something going on, Robbie and Carol?
What do you mean? Do you not think they're acting odd?
I've seen this with other patients.
They've time on their hands, they start thinking too much...
You think I'm making it up?
No, I'm saying you've got more important things to be doing.
Like checking for pressure sores.
There's something going on.
Jo.
Listen, I didn't mean anything about the kids' school. It's fine.
No, I'm sorry I should never have involved you.
It was a casual chat.
I didn't realise Paul was going to be so cranky.
It's an important decision, a child's school.
No, there's an empty unit in the Market space he's trying to rent.
That's been vacant for months.
He had somebody but they rang this morning and cancelled.
That's why he's in a mood. That's a pity.
If you know of anybody looking to rent a business space...
The Hungry Pig doesn't attract many entrepreneurs.
Hey! Hey, kids. Hi, love.
Anything strange or startling?
We're just talking entrepreneurs. Where are they all gone, eh?
I see youse later. See you. Bye.
What was that about? There's a free unit in the Market Place.
Niamh was hoping someone might rent it.
A Lego shop. A toy shop?
No, there's free Lego you can play with while you eat ice cream.
All this bake-off stuff on telly?
What about Kakes For Kids. With a "K".
Cakes and ice cream and Lego.
That's a great idea.
Dermot, isn't that clever? Yeah. Come on, let's go.
Hey, Deano. Alright, man, how are you?
Oh, listen, the hardware shop? We're joining this kind of buyers group.
Buy at a discount, guarantees good quality. Bigger turnover.
Wow, that sounds... Damo, I'm so thrilled...
Shut up, will you? Listen, I'll be spending my time at the shop,
so the repair side of the business, interested in a bit of work?
Helping out Pete. I'm not much of a handyman.
I was thinking brute strength. Lifting, lugging, shifting stuff.
I could do that.
It's just casual. A bit of pin money?
It'd be good to do something physical.
If you're after exercise, we have a kick-about this evening.
Six o'clock, over the social? All new players welcome.
Not much of a footballer. Well, you should fit in perfectly so.
I should be showing myself around a couple of race tracks.
Do you fancy coming along? Down the country, very discreet?
Not a fan of the gee-gees, no?
I had a horse once.
Really? Carol's Lad.
An actual race horse?
Except he didn't race, more sort of strolled.
He never won anything.
My kind of horse. What happened to him?
Er, the government took him away. Criminal Assets Bureau.
Billy Meehan.
That's when I was backing losers. You got yourself a winner now.
A long shot, is it? Dead cert.
Wouldn't even take any bets.
How are youse? Hey.
How's Dan getting on? Making progress.
Great. Yeah.
Just a coffee when you're ready. Yeah.
I better take this.
We are allowed to talk in public, you know.
Sorry.
Hi, Louise, love. Hey. Hey.
What's the story? Frankie quit?
He is in Belfast. In his brother-in-law's restaurant.
He just took off? Yeah, he phoned me this morning.
So, what are you going to do?
Help out in the kitchen. Get through lunch.
I don't know. I'll see you.
Did you and Max not talk about this? Yeah and we want kids,
but we didn't have a timetable for when they'd arrive.
It seems that Max has now. Ma. Please. I'm not criticising him.
I'm just saying this is something you have to work out. And we will.
You're still young. Ma.
No, I mean for your photography or career.
There's still loads of time for a baby. Ma, I'm not that young.
Farrah, this is a baby we're talking about. That's a huge commitment.
I mean in terms of time. You can't raise a child and start a career.
At least I don't think so.
Surely Max can wait a few years.
We always do what I've want. Is it not Max's turn?
It's not a case of whose turn it is.
You should agree, if you're meant to be together. We are.
Farrah, Farrah.
You only get one go at this life. You should do what you want.
That's it, that's it, yeah, yeah...
Well done. Whoopee! I got myself into bed.
Well, you couldn't do it last week. So, yes, well done. Right.
Hiya. Yeah. Hey, Carol.
Is everything alright? You tell me.
What do you mean? You look like you got something on your mind.
Maybe something between you and Robbie? Dan.
No, let the woman speak.
In fact, Bronagh, will you give us a minute?
Don't say that. It's true, isn't it?
Half a man? I wouldn't blame you if you changed your mind.
It's not like that. What's it like? Just tell me the truth.
We had a row. About what?
He thinks I'm pushing you too hard.
Like what Bronagh said, the rehab.
We should stick to the schedule.
We didn't want to say anything because we didn't want to upset you.
I'm sorry.
Dan, this cripple, half a man stuff.
You can't be thinking that way.
I know, yes.
Sometimes you get a bit down on yourself in here.
You'll be out of here soon enough, alright? Yeah.
So, cash flow isn't a problem at the minute,
but obviously the sooner you can rent it the better.
Hi, Dermot. Hey!
Thought I'd meet you and we could go for that coffee.
What coffee?
Dermot, you've a head like a sieve. How's things, Paul?
Grand, not too bad.
Niamh was saying somebody let you down. Excuse me?
Renting the unit, somebody agreed and then pulled out?
Right.
So, are you going to have to lower the rent to lure them in?
Is this your day for doling out advice, Jo, is it?
Enjoy your coffee. Bye, Paul. See you, Paul.
"Coffee"? Yeah, I just made it up.
I knew you were meeting him. Why?
How much does he want?
How much for the rent, Dermot? Twenty thousand a year.
How much will he lower it now I've put that in his mind?
Why?
A ice cream Lego cake shop. I am just curious.
Thanks.
Dean, you're back. For the time being, anyway.
You working? Looking around.
Here's the very woman. Louise's chef quit, she's working in the kitchen.
You got through lunch, didn't you? Yeah, just about.
Actually, Dean was saying he was looking for work.
Da, hang on a minute.
But it makes sense, doesn't it?
Bela, I'm not really into the cheffing anymore.
The thrill has gone out of it, but I'm sure you'll find somebody.
It was good talking to you. Louise, I'll see you.
See you. See you again.
Da. Don't do that. What?
You were offering Dean a job. I was only suggesting.
Well, don't. Or not while he's standing there.
Anyway, he didn't want the job.
I know you're disappointed about the pregnancy test.
But you weren't disappointed, not even a little bit.
I don't think it's the time to start a family.
I thought when it happened would be the right time.
Max, it didn't happen. And if it had?
We should talk about what we want to do.
Where we want to be next year, in two years.
Farrah... I took that job in Australia. I changed my mind.
You said it was a good idea. No, I said it might be.
It is. It's one year, a load of money. A year?
While we have no kids to tie us down.
Everything that's happened to us here, we could put it behind us.
We could start again. Just the two of us. So, come with me?
You know the stuff you were saying this morning, about Dean?
You're absolutely right and I want to thank you for your advice.
You could have thanked me this evening, with a real drink.
Actually, this evening,
Dean wants to go playing football between six and nine, so...
empty house, guaranteed. It's a date, so.
Do you want another? Sure.
You know this notion about him and me going off for the weekend?
You and me should be doing that and that's what we're gonna do.
Really? You pick a hotel, we'll go up Saturday, come back Sunday.
This weekend, next weekend, whenever you like.
Leo Dowling, I could get to like you. I already like you.
Er, can I get the same again. Yeah, sure.
So, are you taking over full time? Just till Dan gets back.
When's that? Couple of weeks all going well.
Well, fair play to you. I'm happy to be able to do it.
Youse were in the army together? Yeah.
Lasts a lifetime, doesn't it? That bond.
I'll drop these over to you. Yeah, OK, yeah.
No, I did not ask Paul about lowering the rent.
Why not? Because I'm not curious.
And I'm sorry, but exactly what does that mean?
I was thinking about education and information.
What Niamh was saying, entrepreneuring.
And how we could foster that.
And? And I came up with a community resource centre.
Information exchange and advice, networking... doing up CV's.
Introducing people to other people. Oh, doing what the Internet does?
Not everybody can afford a computer, Dermot.
So, we provide laptops. It's like equality of opportunity.
Actually, that is a great slogan: equality of opportunity.
And this would be in the unit Paul has for rent? Yes.
Right, so even if he did lower the rent,
how would this community resource thing pay the rent
and pay for laptops?
Well, there are government grants.
Er, there is business sponsorship. You could even charge a small fee.
There are ways, Dermot, if you're determined.
But Jo, doesn't the community centre already do a lot of this?
Hi. Here you go. Cheers.
When I, er, you know when I get out? Hm?
It won't be long till I get out. Right.
Us. Being together.
We don't want to be just holding hands, right?
I was talking to the doctor and it's have a go, see what happens.
But if nothing happens. We don't have to talk now.
Please. If nothing happens,
I don't mind if you make other arrangements.
That's your private business. Dan.
Just so you know.
Don't even be thinking that way.
Hi. Time for your shower. Won't be long.
Sorry, bad time?
No, I'll just be a few minutes. Hang around. Carol.
How are you, Robbie?
I know what's going on. Carol told me.
The row we had? You saying I was pushing him too hard at the rehab.
She's only looking out for me, same as you.
So, relax, the pair of you. Be back in a bit.
See you. See you.
So, he took this job without talking to you first?
He turned it down because he thought that's what I'd want.
Then I said maybe he was better off taking it.
Sorry, what? Alright, Ma, give me a break, we were arguing.
And now he's taken the job, so..? I said I need time to think.
Which means that you don't want to go.
No, it means I want time to think.
Alright, for and against.
Against, it's a year.
Away from home, starting again, new people
and putting the photography on hold. And for?
It's only a year and it's a lot of money.
Hm. What does that mean?
It's just that under for, you didn't say you'd be with Max.
I'm sorry. You looked like you were gonna smack him one.
He was mouthing off at me.
Because you clattered him. I thought I went for the ball.
But it's just a bit of craic. That's why there's no ref.
But you keep score. Somebody wins. You have to compete.
There's compete and then there's losing the run of yourself.
I was in control there. Didn't look like it.
It's supposed to be intimidating. It's controlled aggression.
You let the other guy lose it and then you take him out.
What are you talking about?
It's just a kick-about, you're talking about "taking Rory out"?
Yeah, fine. Where's all this coming from?
You know in London I made my living from fighting.
Boxing? Bare knuckle.
There's big money to be made in it.
Yeah, come on. That's crazy.
How is it crazy? I'm good at it.
Oh, you know what, I don't want to know.
Sorry if it upsets you there, Mary Jane. You think it's OK?
You get paid for smashing people in the face?
Look, Damien, you said you didn't wanna know, it's cool, don't worry.
Look, I'll take it easier next week, I'll go in goal or something.
Rory was saying if you're playing next week, he's not.
And Rory's been there from the start, so...
Fine. Sorry. Don't worry about it.
Hey. Hey, lads.
Can I get youse a drink? No, I was just finished up, we good, yeah?
Yeah. Course we are, see youse after.
Take it easy. Damien?
Yeah. See ya. Yeah, see you buddy.
What was all that about? What?
With Damien? What was what about?
I was just chatting earlier and asked him if there's any work going.
Said there was, so great.
You're going around asking people to give me work?
Hey, relax. I'm not "going around".
I was talking to Damien and it just occurred to me - Hang on.
Mind your own business. I can get my own work.
Don't talk to her like that. Can everyone just chill out here?
When are you going to do something about it? Get a job I mean?
Looks to me like you're just sitting around. Leo.
If you have a problem with that, Da, I can leave. Don't be stupid.
No, hang on, you're going on about me to get a job.
I had a job, you didn't like it, so I left it.
Maybe that was stupid.
You stay out of my business.
Dean. Wait - (SIGHS)
Maybe I should have told him. I mean, he asked me straight out.
No, we agreed.
It's one thing to say nothing, but to lie straight to his face.
And then he started talking about him and me and when he gets out.
OK, I get it. Let's stop beating ourselves up over it.
Robbie, maybe we should break up.
No, that's not going to happen.
Maybe it's for the best.
No, look, that's not going to happen, alright?
Because I love you, so get that out of your head.
You love me?
Yeah.
