01x06 - Happy Ever After

Post by bunniefuu »

: Look at you.
D'you get my messages?

I've been calling.
How's your mother?

She still with her man?

I thought of you every day,
can you believe it?

: I'm picking up
the anti-booze.

Been off the sauce for eleven
weeks and four days, but sure,

who's counting?

You look good. Tired. But good.

What brings you to Carlingford?

This is it.

What if he doesn't like me?

What if you don't like him?

Okay.

You'll be grand.

Yeah?

Hello.

Hello.

You're gorgeous.
Are you sure you're mine?

- Um, these are for you.
- Oh! Thank you.

Thank you so much.

- Please, sit.
- Is this okay?

Oh, my favourite spot.

Great.

Watch the whole world go by.

Must be the sugar.

- Hmm.
- Ever since I quit the booze,

I've come here daily.
I mean, religiously.

Our Father, who art in heaven,

give us this day our daily
chocolate sundae--

...with whipped cream

and bits of cherry.

I traded one vice for another.

Oh, I...

I brought this, um...

so that you could see it, or...
I don't know. Anyway...

Jesus Christ, eh?

You're the spit
out of Susan's mouth.

Do you mind if I keep this?

It's yours.

Who's the lucky fella?

Oh! Um...

Yeah, we're sort of
on a break, or break up,

or I-I'm not really
sure which yet.

Well, what's for you
won't pass you by.

Yeah.

I've been...

I've been trying to get it off.
I think I might need

to give it back,
but it's... it's stuck.

Stay right here.

- What are you doing?

Doing a little magic.

Ancient Irish trick.

Butter.

Just rub some of that there.
And there... That's right.

Try it.

- Ah!
- Haha!

It worked! That's amazing!

Oh, my God! Look what I...
Look what I found.

What's this?

You made it.

For Suze.

Janey Mac, I for...
forgot all about this.

- I was good with me hands.
- Yeah.

- Ah!
- Oh!

Oh!

This is... this is on me.

Thank you.

Put this...

You're the sign
I've been waiting for.

Sign that my life
is back on the right track.

Listen, I have a gig tonight.
Would you come?

- Yeah.
- Bring Susan.

I'd love to see the two
of youse together. I--

No, we'd love to!

- No f*cking way!
- Oh, come on, Suze!

He's sober! He's been sober
for three months!

He's really trying.

Look, he knows he hasn't
always been a good father,

but he wants to make up
for lost time.

Just treat him like
your biological father.

That's what I'm doing.
No expectations.

From your Da.

Thank you so much.

Eh, c-can we get some water?

Well, it's good to see
a few familiar heads

in the pub tonight.

This one...

is for that old pal
who follows you around

wherever you go: trouble.

And I'd like to dedicate
this song

to two very special women.

This is for my daughters.

- No!

I'll never forget Susan's
first bike.

She was desperate for one,
obsessed with it.

It had to be blue.
Not light blue.

Not royal blue.
Midnight blue, if you please.

We had nothin' then,

not a penny.
But there was this old fella

in the pub I was singing in,

and he had a few bob,

and he was getting rid
of one of his kids' old bikes

and it was only going in
the skip and I thought, result!

This fella'll have
something good.

Hmm...

Well, when he showed it to me,

I was devastated.

It was terrible.

It was an old disgusting,
filthy banger of a thing.

But I was good with bikes.

I put a new saddle
and new brakes,

new bell and I painted it:

midnight blue
with a pale blue stripe.

- Hmm.
- Jesus.

I'll never forget
bringing it home to her.

She must have been seven.

Eight.

Eight. Right.

Tiny, skinny thing she was.

What happened when she saw it?

She started bawling!

- No! No-oh-oh!
- Yes!

I thought, "Good night!
She hates it!

All this work and she
doesn't even want it."

But then she threw her arms
around me legs and said,

"Daddy, I love it.

It's the best bike
I have ever seen."

You loved it, didn't ya?

Mm.

I will never forget
that reaction.

Ever.

And after that, of course,
I couldn't get her

off the bloody thing.
She was... She was well sorted.

I think the whiskey's hit me.

I'm just, I'm going
to get some water.

Could I get a glass
of water, please?

Painting yourself
as quite the saint there.

Right. I'm going.

Stay, i-if you want.

No, I'll come with you.

Is that... is that
okay with you?

Ah, no, of course.
You should be with your sister.

- Can I see you tomorrow?
- Yeah. Absolutely.

I can come by the hotel.

- Thank you. Bye.
- Bye.

Bye.

- Happy?
- Yeah. I mean,

- I felt a real connection.
- Great.

I keep picturing him
fixing that bike.

Yeah. It was a nice bike.

Ah. Thank you.

Jimmy left this at reception.

Listen, please don't be
too disappointed.

It's not about you.

What's a tog?

- Is this it?
- God knows.

You didn't have to come.

I'm just making sure
he's not gonna kidnap ya

and hold you to ransom.

Ha-ha-ha.

Oh, my God. Wow-ow-ow!

Hi!

Hey! Hello down there!

This way?

Okay!

Wow!

This is amazing!

Yeah. This is where I come
when my head is wrecked.

How did you do all of this?

Ah, nothing's too
much for my girls.

Susan.
Um, some food, cakes.

Oh.

My specialty...

- roast beef sandwiches.
- Mmm!

But before we begin...

Uh...

The baptism.

Ahh...

- Ahh!
- Ahh!

- Come on, girls!
- Woo! Woo!

No!

- Come on!
- Oh, no-oh.

- Woo!
- Oh, man!

- Woo!
- Come on, girls!

It's good for the soul!

Is it freezing?

It's like a bath!

Woo!

Oh, Jesus!

Like the Bahamas!

Woo!

Well, I'll write.

It's not the 1800s.

- We can do the Facetime thing.
- We will!

All right, ah...

This is me.

- Ah!
- Thank you.

Susan. Ta.

You're grand.

Aye. All right.

Be good, you two.

Don't go breaking
any more hearts. Oh!

Bye.

Right. I'm borrowing this.

Do you think I look like him?

Yeah. A bit.

You definitely look like him.

- Thanks.

sh*t.

Where's the box?

I-I can't find my ring.

Again?

Oh!

No, I got it.

Jesus, Canada.
Right! Come on.

Let's get outta here.

- Ah, dinner's on me.
- Obviously.

Wait!

When we get back to Dublin,
I'm going to help you

find a good job, okay?
We can make you a great resume.

What are some of
your special skills?

Oh, my God! Jimmy?!

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Come on. Come on.

: Are you okay?

Are you okay?

I just wanted to see if you
were all right. But you're--

Am I all right?

Who the f*ck do you
think you are? What?

- Come on.
- Get a f*ck' load

of this one!
f*cking waste of space.

Useless piece of sh*t
on my shoe,

just like your f*ck' mother.

If your f*cking mother had
the decency to k*ll herself,

I'd still be in
that f*ck' house!

- It was my f*ck' house!
- Get off of her!

Get your f*ck' hands
away from me,

you f*ck' American sl*t!

Or was that your ma?

Spread her legs just as quickly
as I looked at her.

Go ahead.

No f*ck' children of mine.
Get off to f*ck.

Get off to f*ck!

Go! Go away.

No f*ck' children of mine.

Let's go get this ring back!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm so...

Where's the ring?

I'll get it back.

Where is it?

The barman.

He's holding on to it for me
until I get me wages.

I'm sorry.

I'll be better.

I'll do better.

Could you pass me my tablets
there, by the sink?

My Antabuse.

Please.

Pass me.

How much did
he give you for it?

Three-three hundred Euro.

I'll be better.

I'm gonna go
get your ring back.

- See you back at the van.
- Okay.

You know it's a stolen ring.

That's none of my business.

Yeah, it'll be your business
when I call the guards.

You'd call the guards
on your own da?

- That's low.
- No, low is stealing

- from your own kid.
- I'm sorry you've a shitty da.

- Join the club.
- Mm.

But Jimmy owes me

and he gave me that ring
fair and square.

Please give me the ring!

- Please!
- No!

Come on!

He fixed up a bike for me

when I was little.

Painted it a beautiful
midnight blue.

It was the nicest thing
I ever had.

There you go, you see?

He wasn't all bad.

And then he came home drunk
and pissed all over it.

- Right in front of me.
- Jesus.

I scrubbed it so hard
all the paint came off.

I always thought nothing
good could come from him.

But she... she's good!

She-she's actually,
she-she's really good.

And she came from him.

And she...

She made me feel like there's
some f*cking hope out there.

So listen:

I'm not going anywhere

until you give me
that f*cking ring.

Sare!

What the f*ck?!
