Shite!

I asked Connor to fix that.

We need to get Gerry in, Ma.

Connor can't fix his own hair.

She's not coming.

- Hi, Granny.

- Hi, love'

You have a visitor.

All right, Mark. What about you?

Are you all right?

- Hello, Kevin.

- Collette, what about you?

Hey, you. I'll be there in a second.

Go through.

That's a beautiful wee young fella

you have.

That's kind of you, Kevin.

We just need to talk about London.

Later. I've got to give him his tea.

A volunteer is never off duty, Collette.

Neither is a mammy, Kevin.

All right. No problem.

- Tomorrow, then.

- Aye.

What the f***'s he doing here?

He's grand, Connor.

He was just leaving.

- Just doing me job, Connor.

- F*** off and do it somewhere else.

See you tomorrow, Collette.

Prick.

He's no business coming to this house.

- All right, Gerry?

- Kevin.

- Are you looking for me or something?

- No, I was just calling in for Collette.

Gerry should be

keeping him in line.

Her hands are full there

with the young fella.

- Mummy?

- Mark?

- Can I have some cake?

- All right.

Open up! Police!

Ma!

- Mummy!

- You have no business breaking in here.

- Who do you think you are?

- Get dressed, Miss McVeigh.

- Where's Mark?

- Get dressed.

Leave her. Leave her alone.

Look, we've had enough.

- We've all had enough.

- Well, she's a mother, for God's sake.

I'm a fa,

but what does that change? Nothing.

Well, let her get dressed.

Are you looking after the boy,

Mrs. McVeigh?

- Mummy?

- Mark. Jesus Christ.

Come on,

hurry up, you wee b*tch.

- Mummy!

- You're all right, son.

- Come on!

- Look, come here, love.

It's all right, darling.

Get out of the way.

All right, Mark- Mark.

- You're OK, darling- You're OK.

- Mum!

Bring her out.

Come on. Move yourself.

Where were you?

I was looking after my son.

I couldn't get away.

So I save you

from a lifetime in a prison cell,

and you're seriously gonna sit here

and tell me that you didn't turn up

because you couldn't find

a f***ing nanny?

You've got one minute

to give me something,

otherwise the deal's off,

and you're down that corridor

looking at a charge sheet.

I'm sorry.

Have you seen your brothers?

Aye.

What does Gerry think

of the declaration?

- Not much.

- What did he say about it?

I don't know.

He was round your place

the other afternoon

just after the document was signed.

It was all over the news.

What did he say about it?

So tell me what's moving.

Operations, plans-.

I don't know.

You know what?

This isn't gonna work

You need to call a lawyer.

There's something tomorrow.

Connor's going lo get the detective

who tried to put us away for the murder

of my boss at the print works.
