02:06Right. There's no milk, so toast will have to do.
02:09But we live on a farm.
02:10Just not a dairy farm.
02:15You'll come to your food before it comes to you.
02:18Where's Mum?
02:19If I can't magic milk, what makes you think she can?
02:23Where is she, though?
02:24I don't know. Better things to do than be here.
02:26That's not very nice.
02:31Bring her.
02:32Stop mithering.
02:34She's your wife.
02:38Right. Fine.
02:41If the wind changes, your face is gonna stick like that.
02:46Hi, you're through to Moira Dingle.
02:49Come on.
02:51Come on.
02:55Here we go.
02:56You get the bacon just right.
02:59It's not what my life's added up to. Kill me now.
03:02That's the kids dropped off.
03:04Right.
03:05Jimmy, you've got HMRC up at the haulage yard, you know.
03:08Why?
03:09I don't know. Something about an inspection. Red diesel.
03:12Will look pretty scarce.
03:14You better be clean.
03:16You're already getting fined after the last inspection.
03:18Tachograph.
03:19Yeah, he is.
03:20I've got nothing to hide this time.
03:22Look, come on, I'll give you a lift up the hill.
03:24I'll get the coffee later.
03:25No chance of a fry-up.
03:27We'll leave wound-up Will to deal with it.
03:29Fair play.
03:31Come on.
03:36Mum, you smell.
03:38Yeah, well, that's what happens when you fall asleep in a barn.
03:41Well, the cow's worth a lot of money. I had to be nearby.
03:46How can you help the cow if you're dead to the world?
03:50You thought she were dead, didn't you, Dad?
03:52Don't be silly.
03:53No, he's not being silly.
03:55You were hovering over me. You looked terrified when I woke up.
04:00Not looked that concerned for months.
04:02What are you on about now?
04:07Please, can I go to Amy's with Kyle?
04:09No, they're out.
04:11I'll go upstairs, then.
04:12Oh, Isaac, me and your dad are not going to fight.
04:21You know, Cain, I don't think I'm very well.
04:24And you've really hurt me.
04:26And you're accusing me of drinking and God knows what else with God knows who,
04:30and it's just...
04:33I just can't do this right now.
04:34Where are you going?
04:35I'm going to check on him because one of us has to.
04:38Look, your eyes are all bloodshot. What am I supposed to...?
04:42Moira?
04:46Where's the inspector?
04:48Done and gone.
04:49Someone's ticked him off about red diesel.
04:52I can smell it everywhere and all.
04:55Do you know about it?
04:56What are you asking me for?
04:58Well, it wouldn't be the first time you've cut corners recently, would it?
05:01Me? Why would I take the chance? I've just been done for the tachograph.
05:04Well, if it's not me and it's not you, then...?
05:06It's definitely not me.
05:08Well, someone is trying to sabotage our business.
05:10Wow, that was a bit of a jump.
05:12Look, you can take that smirk off your face, all right?
05:14Can't help my face.
05:16It's a driver on the take, simple.
05:18Why do you always have to jump to the darkest conclusion?
05:21I'm supposed to be the hysterical one.
05:23No telling Kim until we have to.
05:25Oh, well, it's a good job you're not talking to her then, isn't it?
05:36Hold the front page.
05:37Lost woman given directions by friendly local.
05:40That's me, by the way.
05:42What, lost?
05:43You were never friendly.
05:45I directed her to the haulage yard about half an hour ago.
05:50Was she from HMRC?
05:52Well, I didn't strip search her,
05:54but with all the air of a low-paid official on a day out in the country,
05:58I'd say yes.
05:59Yes?
06:01I thought it'd take them weeks to turn up
06:02and I'd be sneaking over there every night with a red diesel.
06:05I wonder what that smell was.
06:06So will we have a haulage burn by Christmas?
06:08Well, sooner, I hope.
06:10Poor Will.
06:12It's one thing after another.
06:14Mm, especially as you keep setting him up.
06:17And then there's Jimmy with the tachograph fine.
06:21Tachograph Ruby.
06:22Oh, dear.
06:23Well, I couldn't care less, but it seems to matter to you.
06:26He'll be desperate to offload the place.
06:28Well, we need to take our time.
06:30Ah, he's spoilsport.
06:33If you exchange contracts on Halloween,
06:35you could do it dressed as the devil.
06:44Oi!
06:46Well, you spoke to me yesterday.
06:48Do that again and you'll regret it.
06:50I don't care if you're my daughter's husband or not.
06:52Look, your daughter's done with you.
06:53And you've brought all that on yourself, you idiot.
06:56Look, now you've only got Kim and I pity you.
06:58You chose her over us.
07:00I mean, you thought she might have killed Dawn's mum.
07:03Yeah, well, I know she didn't now.
07:04Yeah, but when you thought she did, you were going to protect her.
07:06And it's not about what Kim has or hasn't done.
07:08It was about what you were prepared to do.
07:10Yeah, look, I love her and I won't lose her.
07:13Then why didn't you tell her that then?
07:14Because she's not here.
07:16So now you've got your big house and your little trucks to play with
07:19and that is it.
07:21Hang on a minute.
07:22Was it you?
07:23Was what me?
07:24Someone's been messing with our trucks.
07:26Like I've got time to do that.
07:28You sound mad.
07:29You are mad.
07:30You must be to throw away your family.
07:32Dawn chose to leave.
07:33Look, he's never you, is he?
07:35Never you.
07:44I hope that's the milk, men,
07:45because my husband won't be due back for hours.
07:50It kind of fits, doesn't it?
07:52With all the accusations you've been chucking in my direction lately.
07:56I only asked about Nate yesterday.
07:58Oh, because you're paranoid?
08:00No, because you made comments about him.
08:02You brought it up like you wanted some kind of reaction.
08:05So anyway, I...
08:07I talked to him.
08:09You did what?
08:11Why?
08:13Have you any idea the trouble you're causing?
08:15He's as embarrassed by you as I am.
08:16Oh, you'll be having me sectioned next.
08:18Tell me what's wrong.
08:19Because of course it couldn't be you.
08:20What have I done?
08:21You've looked at me, questioned me,
08:24and accused me, and not once,
08:26not once have you asked me if I'm OK,
08:28when I'm obviously not.
08:29And I might be ill with some virus,
08:31or it might be the menopause.
08:33That.
08:35That's what you've done.
08:36Just that.
08:39You know, I am sorry if I have changed.
08:42And I am sorry if I am not what you want,
08:44but this is what I am.
09:15Shall I just smash the glass and help myself, or what?
09:18Two ticks.
09:19Will reckons it's sabotage.
09:21After the tachograph thing, Julie,
09:23you're more than capable of sabotaging yourself.
09:25That was to earn money for us.
09:27Plus it kept you away from the house and me crying over Angel.
09:30We both miss her.
09:31Three more months at the uni, it's just not fair.
09:34She hit somebody.
09:36So how big's the fine for the red diesel?
09:38Bigger than the tachograph fine, and we can't fine that either.
09:41Well, can Will grovel to Kim?
09:43They're terrible at the moment.
09:45She'd happily see the business go under just as punishment.
09:48And anyway, she's away.
09:50Evil people get an easier ride than us.
09:52Takeout, wasn't it?
09:53No, I'm happy to just...
09:54I'll have a black coffee, please.
09:58Oh, you're smiling, aren't you?
10:01Can't wait to see him.
10:03Yeah, love you.
10:05Just a couple of cakes for the kids for later, please.
10:08How's baby?
10:10More treatment.
10:12More treatment.
10:13Get in there.
10:14Dawn's got the brunt of it.
10:18Call these a housewarming.
10:20Cheers, Nicole.
10:23Can't you make up with Will?
10:25He's a nightmare at the moment.
10:27Look, I want nothing more to do with him.
10:29They're both snakes, him and his wife.
10:31Bit harsh on Will.
10:32Look, open your eyes.
10:34He's just had a massive go at me about whatever's happening at the oil yard.
10:37No.
10:38Look, everyone thinks it's Kim who pulls the strings,
10:40but I could tell you a few things about him.
10:42Like what?
10:44Let's just say that me and Dawn had a lucky escape.
10:50Oh, stop sighing, Jimmy, and get yourself to the pub.
10:54Go and have a big dinner while we can still afford it.
11:04Yeah, do you fancy a drink?
11:06What do you do now?
11:08Get yourself down the pub.
11:13I reckon I've been burying my head.
11:15I mean, she's denied it, but I think you're right about the drink.
11:18And I think it's definitely connected to what happened with Mattie.
11:21Well, it's not like Moira not to be up front if there's an issue.
11:24Well, she's definitely been up front about how much she can't stand me,
11:26and then she covers it all up by saying maybe she's ill or it's a menopause.
11:31Well, maybe she's right.
11:34Please say you took her seriously.
11:39Did you shrug and roll your eyes?
11:42Oh, for God's sake.
11:45So why hasn't she gone to the doctor?
11:47Because men don't get the monopoly on being stupid
11:50when it comes to taking care of themselves.
11:52And what about all that stuff we know, eh?
11:54Rubbing my face in it, deliberately goading me with it.
11:57I mean, is that a health issue? Because it didn't feel like it.
12:00I mean, is that a health issue? Because it didn't feel like it.
12:03It hurt. It brought a load of stuff back.
12:05And she knew it would.
12:08So, anyway, I spoke with Nick.
12:11What did he say?
12:13Well, he was upset because me and him, we've been good, you know.
12:16I mean, it's different to my other kids, but we are getting there.
12:20Particularly after that stuff with Tracy and our brilliant brother.
12:24Get back to Moira.
12:27She's a loose cannon with a glint in her eye,
12:29flirting with Nate, deliberately winding us all up,
12:32and I hate it.
12:34For the kids as much as me.
12:42So gutted you've had the last steak and kidney pudding.
12:46Can I have this bit, if you like?
12:48As if!
12:50It's been ages since I've had a steak and kidney pudding.
12:53It's made me all wistful for me grandma.
12:56Tell you what,
12:58I can't do it right now.
13:00Oh, you're a peach.
13:02No, I'm pretty.
13:04All right, Jimmy, you might want to wipe there.
13:07Oh, thanks.
13:09Can't even get eating right.
13:11Rubbish. Nobody enjoys a big dinner in here like you do.
13:14Now, how about some afternoons? We've got a...
13:17Are you trifling with me?
13:19Yeah, that's exactly what we've got.
13:22I know. I saw the menu.
13:24I'd better have a big bowl.
13:32So, er...
13:34What's your secret?
13:36Hmm?
13:38Well, you know, your cards get burnt out,
13:40people dish you in the street,
13:42yet you still get shaved every day and you smell great.
13:45Are you coming on to me?
13:47Well, you should be down and out.
13:50You're not? So why are you Tigger and I'm Eeyore?
13:55You're being too hard on yourself, mate.
13:57We've got a lot of family stuff going on.
13:59And it's spread across so many businesses.
14:01Too many.
14:04An angel being away is killing us.
14:07Another few months, is it?
14:09Hmm.
14:11I just... I can't catch a break.
14:15SHE SIGHS
14:18I'll have a cheese toastie, then.
14:20Bring us one of those trifles, will you, Gail?
14:23And another pint for Jimmy.
14:29Cheers.
14:45SHE SNIFFS
14:52Don't worry, I won't tell Dad you went all wobbly again.
14:56He's all right, big grumpy bum.
15:00Mmm.
15:06I'm not complaining, but I work all night
15:09and then I get home and it's a school run or whatever
15:12or a million other grinding little things.
15:15And Nicola's knackered cos she's driving up and down to see Angel all the time.
15:19The car will pick up more.
15:21I don't want to be disloyal.
15:23But you're dealing with his problems and all.
15:25Between you and me, we had an inspection this morning.
15:30What, another?
15:32The first one was my fault, but this one's red diesel
15:35and we're shouting the odds and blaming everyone.
15:38Like who? Me a bit. Billy.
15:41That's bizarre. He'll be a driver.
15:43Which is what I told him.
15:47HE SIGHS
15:49You do need a break, don't you?
15:51Do you want to buy half a haulage yard?
15:54HE CHUCKLES
15:55You've just told me Will's a nightmare.
15:57Damn! Me and my big mouth.
16:00You wouldn't sell up anyway.
16:02Mmm.
16:04For a long line, I'd give it away.
16:07Don't you think Caleb's got such a...
16:10positive vibe?
16:12Positive he loves himself, yeah.
16:14Oh. He's so funny.
16:17You won't be laughing when I tell Ruby you're after her husband.
16:22Well, actually, I think I can take her.
16:24Just a pint, please.
16:28Oh, Gail.
16:30Yeah?
16:32For the lady.
16:34For the lady?
16:36Oh! I asked and I received!
16:39What more could a woman ask for?
16:42Cheap date.
16:43Oh, in a nutshell.
16:47Hiya. Just a lime and soda, please.
16:51Buy yourself a proper drink.
16:53Need to change over at the B&B.
16:55Oh.
16:56You and Ernie are free up some time to be together.
16:59Look.
17:01I've always thought you're a bit up yourself,
17:03but that...
17:05well, that was the nicest hour I've had in months.
17:10Are you sure you don't want to buy the haulage?
17:12See you, mate.
17:13Bye.
17:17It's been ages since you looked at me like that.
17:21I offered him twice to buy the haulage
17:24and I think I'm only half joking.
17:26We can manage the fines.
17:28Oh, it's not just that.
17:30It's Will.
17:32He used to be this massive, solid, barn door of a man
17:36and now he just isn't.
17:38And I'm too tired.
17:42How much do you think we'd get for it?
17:49So...
17:51Jimmy just offered to sell the haulage firm.
17:54Just like that.
17:56And he was only half joking.
17:58So you bit his hand off?
18:00Nope.
18:02He's not ready. Not yet.
18:04It's the family firm and he loves it.
18:08We need him to get to the point where
18:11the exhaustion outweighs the sentiment.
18:14And what about Will?
18:16Well, he's losing a plot.
18:18It won't take much to push him out.
18:23I suppose I'll be doing Jimmy and Nicola a massive favour, really.
18:28Why have you got ants in your pants?
18:31Because he's decent.
18:33And he's having a terrible time and I like him.
18:37You were talking about him yourself the other day.
18:40Yeah, something about his face.
18:43But I got over it.
18:46Tell me
18:48what you most admire about me.
18:50I thought I was talking about Jimmy.
18:52Humour me.
18:55You don't care what anyone thinks about you.
18:58And what I most admire about you is that you do.
19:01If this project comes off
19:03all the bits you're buying, all the deals...
19:05Yeah, well, it's good fun, isn't it?
19:07Yeah, it is. It's great.
19:09And you'll be at the top of that hill looking down on everyone.
19:12But your family and your new pal Jimmy
19:15things will change.
19:18Yeah.
19:19Yeah, you're right.
19:22But with this smile, I can win anyone over.
19:25Hmm. Well, it's worked on me enough times.
19:29No going back.
19:41Where's Dad?
19:46Please, can we go out for tea?
19:49Er...
19:51Just let me get a glass of water first, son.
19:56Kyle's had burgers twice this week.
20:00I'm not saying no.
20:02I'm just saying we'll talk about it when we get back home.
20:05You're bonkers. We are at home.
20:08Mum!
20:17Seeing Maura like this
20:19makes me feel guilty about the way I treated Mum.
20:21I must have been to hell with Shadrach.
20:24It's the never knowing what state, you know, what mood.
20:27And when you've been in here, you barely look at each other.
20:31You need to talk to her, Cain.
20:35I've tried loads.
20:37You know how much I hate talking.
20:40But right now, all I feel like is I'm talking at her or to her.
20:44But not with her?
20:46Yeah, because she won't.
20:48It's like I've done something really bad
20:50and she's waiting for me to work out what it actually is.
20:53But until then, she's just looking past me or through me.
20:57It's like...
20:59I'm not even there. I mean, I might as well not be.
21:02Is that bad?
21:04Well, it soon will be.
21:05There's no way I'm going to do what Mum did and abandon my kids.
21:08So one will freak out or blow out or black out, and that is it.
