Hello, hello, hello, hello!
You all right pal?
What are you doing in there?
[Mocking chuckle]
[Thug 2] Speak English?
Are you a bit Ukraine in the membrane, are you?
- I'm Irish. - [Thug] Irish!
What the fuck are you doing living in a tent,
on the fucking canal, on your own, if you're Irish?
[Thug 2 shouts aggressively; Mocking laughter]
[Thug] Here, relax. Stand up for yourself.
What's your name?
- Danny. - [Thug] Danny?
Do you need money, Danny, is it?
Here. I'll give you some.
Let's get a photo together, Danny, yeah?
My and you, me auld pal.
[Mocking laughter]
Ladies and gents, here's me giving money to a homeless.
This is Danny, me new friend.
Say hello, Danny.
- Look at his big beard, boys! - [He laughs]
Right, don't go spending that on drink or drugs,
or I'll come back and I'll take it off you, right?
Here, tell the people now, Danny, what's it like being homeless?
- Tell them. - [Thug 2] Dirty!
[Mocking laughter]
[Thug] No?
Ah, I'm only messing with you!
Here, give us a hug! We're mates.
Danny the fucking home...
[Thug exclaims]
Oh, good luck! The fucking bang of piss off him!

When was the last time you had a wash, bro?
D'you not hop into the fucking canal and have a wash?
[Danny] I'm fine, lads. I'm fine.
Just fuck off now, yeah?

- [Woman] Hi there. Soup and a sandwich? - [Music stops]
Do you have any spare tents?
[Woman] Uh, no. We're actually out of tents, sorry.
We have some being dropped off at the shop in a few days, if you want to stop by.
Yeah.
- Can I make a tea? - [Woman] Yeah, go for it.
- Here, what happened your head? - Some fellas on the canal.
[Woman] Right, well, let me clean it for you.
[Bottle clap clacks]
[Woman] That looks like a very bad cut.
I'll be all right.
I actually think you might need stitches.
Who are you, then? Florence Nightingale?
I'm Kate.
- Danny. - Danny?
Nice to meet you, Danny.
So, where are you sleeping tonight?
I was gonna sleep on the canal, but... maybe not.
[Kate] No. No, you can't stay on. Not with a head injury.
Uh, we might be able to find you a room in a hostel.
[Danny] Nah. I'm not going to a hostel.
I have to go.
Wait, before you go...
just at least take these.
- There's plasters and some face wipes. - [Danny] Thanks.
- Bye, now. - See you.

[Music continues, flames crackle]
Take it easy, pal.
[Young Man] I'm not your pal. What you want here, huh?
I just want to get warm.
- I thought... - [Young Man] You thought what?!
Maybe I could sleep here for the night.
- Some lads wrecked me tent. - Bullshit. You're lying.
I'm not lying.
[Young Man strains, gasps]
Hard in numbers, aren't yous?
One-on-one, different story, eh? Huh?
- I'm gonna let you go now, okay? - [Young Man] Okay, okay.
- Okay? - [Young Man] Okay, okay!
[Young Man breathes heavily]
[Music continues]
As I said...
I don't want any trouble, okay?
[Young Man breathes shakily]

[Music stops; Footsteps]
[Young Man] Wake up.
- Wake up. - [Danny gasps softly]
[Young Man] Thought you were gonna roll into the fire.
You move a lot in your sleep.
[Birdsong]
What time is it?
[Young Man] 7:00.
Cheers.
I'm Will.
Good.
I'm Danny.
I put rat poison in it.
[He laughs]
[He chuckles softly]
Can't be too careful.
[Danny] You fish? That's a good rod.
Yeah, sometimes.
- There's a river nearby. - Yeah?
Anything in it?
Pike, I think.
Do you ever catch a pike?
- [Will] No. - Well...
...wanna try?
[Branches rustle]
[Will] So, why aren't you in a hostel?
[Danny] Wasn't safe.
So, why are you really here?
I told you.
I needed somewhere to sleep.
If you think you're gonna swoop in here and take my spot,
you've another thing coming.
If you let one junkie stay, he's gonna run off and tell all of his junkie mates.
And then, the next morning, the place is gonna be hopping with cockroaches.
- You shouldn't call people that. - What, cockroaches?
Junkies.
Everyone's a junkie for something.
So, you're a junkie then, are you?
Show me your arms.
I'm no user.
The river's over here.
[Ruminative music]
[Danny] Living out here is turning you feral.
You should be at home.
[Will] My ma kicked me out the house for dealing.
[Danny] I don't blame her.
Say, there's fish in there.
[Will] My da used to take me fishing here, when I was a kid.
[Danny] Yeah?
[Music continues; Birdsong]
[Will] Deadly!
[Spool whirs]
Want a go?
- Yeah. - Yeah?
[Tackle box thuds]
[Music fades]
- Other way. - [Will] I know.
That's it.
[Will strains]
Think it's stuck.
Pull it up.
Hold that.
[Soft click]
[Danny] Cut the line.
- [Danny groans] - This is an army knife.
You a soldier?
I used to be.
- [He chuckles softly] - Deadly.
- Where'd you serve? - [Danny] Afghanistan.
So, you saw some mad shit over there?
Cut the line.
- Hold it. - [Danny] Careful.
No, I have it. One second.
[Blade slices, Will exclaims]
[Will exclaims, grunts in pain]
[Danny] It's a sharp knife.
- [He winces] - You don't say.
[Will exclaims, breathes shakily]
[Bandage rustles]
You're gonna live out in the woods...
you gotta learn how to use a knife.
I'm only out here until I can afford to pay Power back.
Who's Power?
[Will] Trust me, you don't wanna know.
I lost his drugs, and his boys are looking for me.
[Will winces]
[Ominous music]
[Dog pants]
[Vehicle doors shut]
- [Music continues] - D'you find him?
No.
He can't have just disappeared, can he?
He's out here. Somewhere.
Got a job for yous tonight. Someone's been skimming off the top.
[Uneasy music]
- [Power] We're light. - Who?
[Power] One of the Albanians.
Marko.
He's gonna be at the yard tonight. I want you to test him.
- Ring me when you find that kid. - [Joyce] Yeah.
Yeah.
[Music continues]
[Engine starts]
[Music continues]
What age is your son?
- Eight. It's his birthday soon. - [Music fades]
- Is he a good footballer? - Not really, no.
But he loves it.
He has breathing problems. Needs an inhaler.
[Lively shouting, chatter]
[Ruminative music]
- Wait here, I'll be back in a minute. - [Will] Yeah, cool.
[Ball thuds]
[Teacher] Well done, guys! Go on! Whoo!
[Chatter continues]
- Hi, Dad. - [Danny] Heya, buddy.
Good man.
Playing a stormer, buddy!
Super stuff, boy! Well done, son!
[Music continues]
- What are you doing? - Came to watch me son play football.
Danny, you'll distract him.
- [Music fades] - [Danny] Shoot! Shoot!
Ah, good effort, son. Well done!
- You'll upset him. - [Danny] Upset him?
He's delighted to see his dad.
Is everything all right, Gill?
Yeah, we're okay here, mate. Thanks for asking.
- [Ball thuds] - Thanks, Jack, I can handle this.
[Danny] Go on, go on, go on! Good boy!
Let the ball do the work, Tadgh, yeah?
Look...
I'm asking you to leave. Danny, now.
- Or else I'll call the police on you. - [Ball thuds]
Relax, all right? I'm only saying hello to him.
Just go.
[Lively shouting, chatter]
[Teacher cheers excitedly]
[Mechanical whirring, clanking]
Yo, Marko! Just hang on there a sec, will you?
[Mechanical hiss]
[Mechanical whirring]
[Whirring stops]
How long have you been working for me now, Marko?
Three month, I think.
- And you like it here, yeah? - Yes, it's good.
- Good. How's the family? - [Marko] Family is really good.
Thank you for giving me the job. I really appreciate it.
Ah, it's cool. You're welcome. Listen, you okay for tonight?
Yes, no problem. No problem.
- Oh! - [Keys rattle]
Just got off the phone there to one of the boys. He seen that kid.
- Where? - Down the lane behind Red's Gaff.
What time is that horse of yours running at?
- It's meant to get off at 4:00. - Worth throwing a few quid on him?
[Paulie] If you want, yeah. It's up to you.
[Car door shuts]
[Sizzling]
- [Will] You want vinegar? - Nah.
Ah, man, you need vinegar. That's just weird.
What the fuck, man? Your head!
- Is there a toilet in here? - [Will] Yeah, yeah, at the back.
[Door creaks]
[Vehicle passes]
[Uneasy music]
William.
Where have you been hiding?
Not hiding.
[Power] What have you got there?
[Music continues]
Tried calling you.
Yeah me, eh...
me phone was on silent, and I've no credit.
Show us it.
Give us a look.
- My phone? - Mm.
Yeah, yeah, 'course. No, of course, of course.
[Music continues]
It's not on silent.
Four missed calls.
It's funny, you know?
You being behind on payments, yet here you are, stuffing your face.
- Show us that. - [Will] Yeah.
- [Power] Oh, it looks bad. - [Will] Yeah, it's cut.
[Power] Mm. Looks sore.
[Will winces]
I have money for you.
Show us it.
Are you taking the piss?
- [Will] I'll have the rest for you... - [He winces]
[Will gasps, whimpers]
[Will strains]
[Will breathes shakily]
[Will grunts in pain, breathes shakily]
[Power] There's a job tonight.
You're gonna help Joyce.
- [Will breathes shakily] - Help him with what?
He's gonna call you.
And if you don't answer the phone,
he's gonna have to go 'round and visit your ma.
[Music continues]
[Door creaks]
What's going on?
Everything all right, Will?
- You're in my seat. - What's that?
I was sitting there.
[Tense music]
Do you know who you're talking to?
[Danny] No.
I'm not from around here.
Well, maybe you should go back to where you came from, then.
Why's that?
What's your name?
Danny.
[Power] Danny.
I hope you're not gonna be any trouble to me, Danny, are you?
Enjoy your dinner.
[Door opens]
[Music continues]
[Will gasps, whimpers]
You okay?
[Will] Yeah.
[Music continues]
- [Music fades] - [Tadgh] Daddy, wake up.
Daddy, please, wake up!
- [Tadgh splutters] - Please!
[Tadgh coughs weakly]
[Danny] Where are you going?
Have to go and do something for Power.
- That's not a good idea, Will. - Yeah, I don't have a choice, do I?
[Danny] What do they want you to do?
They didn't say.
You want me to come with you?
No. He said I had to go alone.
I don't like the sound of that.
You sound like me ma.
Maybe you should listen to her.
- All right, pal? - Where are we going?
[Engine off]
[Van door shuts; Rustling]
[Marko] We good?
- Pass me that. - Yeah.
- What are we doing? - Shut the fuck up.
[Tense music]
[Birdsong]
[Frenchie] Look at him. Dirty scumbag.
Dirty fucking bastard.
- All good, Marko, yeah? - [Marko] All good, all good.
[Paulie] We're gonna eat tonight, so we will.
[Man] Well, there's only two more of these boxes.
[Door creaks]
Put your heads down.
[Van door shuts]
[Motorcycle engine starts]
[Motorcycle engine revs]
- Right, come on. - Go.
[Motorcycle engine roars]
[Joyce] Here.
- What's that? - Battery acid.
- What's it for? - You're gonna fuck it in his face.
I'm not doing that. No way.
[Joyce] Oh, yes, you are.
You know why you're gonna do it? 'Cause you fucked up, Will.
You fucked up when you let your ma flush two kilos down the jacks.
So, now you have to do this.
I can't.
You do it and your debt's halved.
If you don't...
we're gonna have to pay her a little visit, aren't we?
[Tense music]
[Music continues]
[Motorcycle engine off]
Hey, Marko. Remember me?
[Marko] Guys. What's up? What's going on?
- Take your fucking helmet off. - [Marko] Why?
- [Joyce] Take your fucking helmet off! - Get the fucking helmet off you!
Get the fuck over here, you!
[Music continues; Intense clamouring, shouting]
[Marko shrieks, music fades]
[Shrieking fades]
[Engine purrs]
[Engine off]
Well done. Joyce filled me in.
So, eh, do you need a roof over your head tonight?
No, I think I'll go.
No, no, there'll be Gardaí on patrol. Stay here, you can leave in the morning.
Come on.
[Clanking]
[Utensil clacks]
[He sniffles]
You hungry? D'you want something to eat?
No.
[Power] You did a good thing, kid.
Marko's a scumbag. He was stealing from me.
You're good now, for that payment.
There's, uh, a pillow and a blanket in that cupboard, so...
Yeah, talk to you in the morning?
Mm.
[Footsteps recede]
[Birdsong]
[He grunts]
[Zipper unfastens]
[He groans]
[Seagulls caw]
[Dog barks]
[Dog barks; Engine off]
What are we doing here?
You said you wanted to go home.
Is that your dog?
Yeah.
Is that a Dachshund?
[Will] Yeah.
[Power] I had a dog.
Sparky.
[Uneasy music]
Lovely little fella.
Did everything for him.
Walked him.
Fed him the best of meat. Steak.
Mince. You name it.
I had this problem with him, though.
Every time I'd let him off the leash,
- he'd run away. - [Will exhales]
Did everything I could to keep him from running off.
So, I came to the conclusion that he was not to be trusted.
[Vehicle passes]
One morning, it must've been about 5am, I brought him down the beach.
It was freezing. The tide was miles out.
[Dog barks, muffled]
Let him off the leash.
Off he goes. Makes a beeline for the water.
Splashing around, rolling around, running all over the gaff.
Eventually, I walked down to the water myself.
There he is. He's, like, frothing at the chops - bollocksed.
- [Will chuckles] - [Power] He's ready to go home.
Looking up at me.
Those big black eyes.
[Siren wails, in distance]
[Music continues]
So, I reached down and...
...I picked up a rock...
and I smashed his legs in.
I walk back to the car and I wait.
[Will] For what?
For the tide to come in.
[Will breathes shakily]
Should have seen the look on his face.
He knew he fucked up, but...
...this time, he couldn't run away, could he?
[Music builds]
[Power] Go on.
[Music continues]
[Music stops; Indistinct conversation]
Danny. How are you?
[Danny] Yeah, good.
Eh, just following up on that tent.
[Kate] Yeah, um, they actually just arrived in.
What are you looking for? A one- or two-man?
- One, if you have it. - [Kate] Yeah, just give me a second.
[Women converse]
[Door shuts]
[Vehicle passes]
[Door creaks]
So, you've two options - blue or black.
- What d'you fancy? - I'll take the blue one.
- How much is it? - Oh, no, don't worry about it. It's free.
Thanks.
- I better go. - Yeah, sure.
Would you ever like to...
I don't know...
go for a tea or coffee or a beer with me sometime?
[Kate] Oh...
I don't know.
Can I think about it?
Yeah, sure.
Here, I'll write my number down.
Have you a pen?
Eh, yeah.
[Danny] Thanks.
- Your pen. - Thanks.
Okay. Thanks again for this.
[Vehicle passes]
Bye.
- Bye. - [Woman] Bye-bye.
[Danny] Thanks.
[Door opens, shuts]
[Door opens, phone rings; Indistinct chatter]
[Door creaks]
So, the purpose of today's meeting is to hear you both out...
and then try and come to some agreement
that's in Tadgh's best interests.
Who wants to go first?
Danny has been turning up to Tadgh's football games unannounced.
- Wasn't part of the agreement. - What agreement?
We never had an agreement.
She probably made up this agreement in her head.
Gill, you've previously voiced concerns about Tadgh's welfare
when he's in Danny's care, is that right?
[Gill] Yeah.
I don't want Tadgh to be around him unsupervised.
I only wanna take him... to a football game.
Okay, well, is there any scenario where that's... a possibility?
Have to think about it.
[Mediator] That's a start.
[Tap runs]
[Faint chatter, through wall]
[He exhales]
Thanks. You shouldn't have.
- No problem. - [He clears throat]
[Danny exhales]
[Pop music plays faintly]
How long you been a key worker?
- Five years. - [Danny] Do you like it?
Yeah. I mean... it's tough at times.
But if I can help one person, then... it's worth it.
Well, you helped me with a new tent, so...
[Danny exhales]
How did you end up sleeping rough?
[Danny] When I got home...
...everything felt...
...different.
I couldn't find work, and...
...I had some things I was dealing with.
Mm. Did you get any help?
[Danny] No.
Maybe I should've.
You know, you remind me of my brother.
- I do? - [Kate] Yeah.
[Danny exhales]
- There goes my chances. - [Kate laughs]
[She inhales, exhales]
I couldn't. I'd lose my job.
- It's not that I'm homeless, then? - [Kate] No.
No, I'd never judge you over something like that.
My brother was homeless, too.
Was he?
[Kate] Passed away recently.
I'm sorry.
No. It's okay.
- D'you wanna see a photo of him? - [Danny] Sure.
He was out there on his own for years, sleeping rough.
[Danny] It's a lonely place, all right.
When was the last time you spoke to him?
[Kate] Um... Christmas Eve.
I begged him to go home and...
get off the stuff that he was on.
He held my hands.
He said, "Kate...
"..it makes the concrete softer."
[Music plays - "I Need" by Maverick Sabre]
I never saw him again.
I'm so sorry.
No. It's okay.
I like talking about him.
♪ I need sunshine
♪ I need angels... ♪
What is it?
He loved this song.
♪ Blue skies, I need... ♪
We can dance to it, if you like.
- Yeah, okay. - [Danny] Yeah?
- Yeah. - [Danny] Okay.
- [Music grows louder] - ♪ Something good, something good

[Music fades]
This is me. Thanks for a lovely night.
It was my pleasure.
Oh, jacket.
Thanks.
- Goodnight, Danny. - Goodnight, Kate.
[Dog barks, in distance; Footsteps recede]
I was wondering when you'd be back.
You all right?
- Yeah, yeah. - [He sniffles]
[Will exhales]
You okay?
What's wrong?
[Uneasy music]
They made me do it.
[Danny] Made you do what?
What did they make you do, Will?
[Music continues; Intense clamouring, shouting]
[Acid drips, sizzles; Marko shrieks]
- [Music continues] - I need your help, man.
[Music fades, Will breathes shakily]
[Footsteps]
- Here. - [Will whimpers]
That's all the money I have.
Pay them off.
Thanks, but it's not enough.
I don't know what to do.
- What about your ma? - [Will whimpers]
She won't... She won't help me.
And there's no-one else?
- Darren. - Darren? Who's Darren?
Darren...
[Will stammers]
He owes me... He owes me a couple of hundred. Maybe more.
- Okay. - [Will whimpers]
Maybe we go see Darren, then?
- Yeah? - Okay.
Look at me.
We're gonna fix this.
I promise you.
[Man] Give me about 20 minutes and I'll be down, okay?
[Will] All right, Darren?
Go to the shops for us and get us a bar and a packet of crisps, will you?
Willie, what's happening, brother?
[Will] I need that few quid off you, man.
Yeah, about that, all right?
I went to a party the other day.
You know how it gets. Some bitch robbed me.
I don't have the money this week, yeah?
So, how about next week? Is that cool, bro?
- Man, I need it today. - I don't have it, man.
- Well, I fucking need it. - I don't fucking have it.
- Are you deaf or fucking what?! - Well, I fucking need it!
[Darren] Who the fuck do yous two think yous are,
coming in here, thinking yous run shit?
Yous don't mean fuck all, right? Now, fuck off!
Man... just give him his money.
He's only a kid. You owe it to him.
Or what? What're you gonna do?
What, is that your little sidekick now? Your little bodyguard?
- Give him the money and we'll be gone. - [Train approaches]
Yous are not getting a washer out me, okay?
- But it's his money. - I don't give a bollocks...
You, fuck off!
- Take the money out of his pocket. - [Darren] Just chill the fuck out, man.
Relax.
Okay, just chill out, man, that's all.
[Train rattles]
[Train recedes]
[Will] D'you see the look on his face?
- He deserved it, the cheek of him. - Shut up talking.
What?
If I do this for you, I want you to promise me...
you're gonna stop dealing and you're gonna cut all ties with them.
Yeah.
[Danny] Give me the money.
Wait here.
Thanks.
[Mechanical rattling]
Power here, lads?
Who's asking?
I am.
[Frenchie] Power!
[Footsteps approach]
Half the money Will owes you.
Where is he?
It doesn't matter.
That's all of it.
He's done now. You won't hear from him again.
Why, where's he going?
[Danny] Will doesn't want anything to do with you.
Or any of your boys.
So, just leave him alone now.
That's not really the way this works, you know?
I can't just let him walk away 'cause...
'cause you say so.
Besides, he's like...
family to me, you know? I treat him like me son.
He's not your son, though, is he?
Look, you're new around here, so you're not seeing the full picture.
You see, Will and I go way back.
His father used to work for me, here in the yard.
- He didn't tell you that? - No.
[Power] Yeah.
This is before he got too fond of the bottle.
Terrible thing, the way he lost himself to the drink like that.
Hung himself.
Out there in them woods.
Before he did, he left something behind.
What?
[Power] Fifteen grand in debt.
I used to give him money...
when I could, you know?
I tried to help him.
But that debt kept accumulating.
And now that he's gone, who do you think that debt falls to?
So, you see, Will can't just walk away.
[Danny] Will's paid his debt.
You're never gonna speak to him again.
Or what?
[Tense music]
I'll come after you.
And what would your young lad think about that, then?
[Music continues]
Fuck you.
[He sniffs]
[Music continues]
[Stairs creak]
[Music stops]
[Mediator] So, um, Gill, have you had a chance to...
...come to any decision over what we discussed last time?
- [Gill] Yeah, I have. - [Mediator] And?
[Gill] I'd be happy for him to take Tadgh to his game...
as long as Jack is there.
[Mediator] Okay, and Danny?
How do you feel about that?
How do I feel?
I feel like it's a load of bollocks.
And it's not really unsupervised... is it?
[Mediator] Okay, well... Gill, where would Jack be, exactly?
I mean, would you want him...
- at the game with Danny? - [Gill] He can wait in the car.
You'd swear I was a monster or something.
What are you so afraid of?
You've a short memory.
Tell her.
Or I can show her.
The receipts for the medication.
- Tablets. - [Bottle clacks]
Tadgh is on an inhaler for the rest of his life because of him.
He has a black cloud on his lung.
Poor child can't even run to the shop and back without his inhaler.
All because he couldn't stay awake and look after him.
I made a mistake.
- I know that. - [Tablets rattle]
[He breathes shakily]
I'm sorry, Gill.
You just can't be around Tadgh until you're in a better place.
I'm sorry.
I actually can't do this.
[Footsteps recede]
[Disquieting music]
[Music continues]
[Car door opens, shuts]
[Dog barks]
[Music continues]
Heya. Will there?
No. He doesn't live here any more.
- What's this about? - Nothing much.
D'you know where he's staying, by any chance?
- I don't. - [Dog barks]
Dachshund, is it?
Yeah.
[Barking continues]
[Car recedes]
[Tense music]
[Tadgh] What time will we be coming back?
[Will] What are you up to?
- [Engine starts] - Just stay here.
Keep a watch out.
Tell me if you see anyone else about that house.
[Engine idles]
[Engine revs]
[Music continues]
[Feet thud]
[Music continues]
[He strains, music fades]
[Ruminative music]
[Music continues]
[Uneasy music; Flies buzz]
Buddy?
Help me get him down.
[Will breathes frantically]
[Will sobs]
Buddy! I'm sorry!
[Will gasps, breathes frantically]
[Will grunts in frustration]
[Sombre music]
[Shovel scrapes]
[He grunts]
[Music continues, Will sobs]
Will...
we need to get out of here.
[He breathes heavily]
[Music fades]
[Keypad beeps]
[Intercom chimes]
- [Kate, on intercom] Hello? - Kate...
- it's Danny. - [Kate] Who is it?
- It's Danny. - [Kate] What's up?
It's an emergency. We just need to come in.
- [Kate] Okay. I'll buzz you up now. - Okay.
[Buzzer; Door opens]
[Door shuts]
- Thanks for helping us out. - Oh, it's not a problem.
We just need somewhere... temporary.
Somewhere we can hide out for a while,
until I can figure this all out.
There's a space in the city I could give you the keys to.
But I'd need them back in a week. There's a family due to move in.
- That'd be great. - Yeah?
The address is on there.
It's perfect.
Just one more thing.
Would it be okay if I washed up a little?
I'm filthy.
- Yeah, I'll grab you a towel now. - [Danny] Thanks.
[Shower runs]
[Unnerving music]
[Music intensifies]
[Disembodied screaming]
[Music, screaming continue]
[Kate, muffled] Is everything okay, Danny?
Danny?
- [Music, screaming stop] - Is everything okay?
[Danny] Yeah.
[He exhales]
This is the place.
Come on.
So, it's the first bedroom upstairs.
[Keys rattle]
This is nice, isn't it?
[Phone chimes; Game sound effects]
Lower that down, will you?
[Sound effects continue]
Are you deaf? Lower it down.
[Sound effects continue]
Will you lower the fucking phone down? You fucking deaf?!
[Sound effects stop]
[Dog barks, in distance]
Fucking hell.
[He groans]
What's wrong with you?
[He sniffles; Melancholy music]
Insurgents would put copper on top of their bombs, 'cause...
Oh, fucking hell.
[He sniffles, clicks tongue, exhales]
When they ignite...
copper liquefies...
...and it goes through anything.
Even our tanks.
Bomb went off ten feet to our right, just as a school bus was passing.
Blast knocked me off the road, but...
...the bus took the full impact.
[He sniffles, exhales]
It was blown to pieces.
Kids were screaming.
[He sniffles]
I seen a little girl.
Half her leg was hanging off.
So, I picked her up and put her in the back of the truck,
started driving.
She was screaming.
[He breathes shakily]
Fucking...
Fucking blood was all over the steering wheel, man.
[He breathes shakily]
I was too afraid to look back.
I was too afraid to look her in the eye.
[He sniffles]
After a while, everything went quiet.
And I knew.
[He sniffles]
I knew she was gone.
I knew I couldn't help her any more.
[He sobs]
[He sniffles, music fades]
I'm sorry for doing that.
I shouldn't have done that.
[Dog barks, in distance]
Look, it's late. You should...
You should get some rest.
Okay?
[Footsteps]
[Door opens, shuts]
[Door opens]
- [Mediator] Hi, Danny. - Hi.
[Door shuts]
Um, so, Gill has asked me to give you this.
[Danny] What's going on?
Court?
[Mediator] When mediation breaks down, this is... the next step.
I'm gonna lose him.
- Ain't I? - [Mediator] Not necessarily.
Try and have faith in the system.
Good luck to you, Danny.
- Thanks. - Take care of yourself.
[Door creaks]
[Door shuts]
[Lively chatter; Teacher shouts excitedly]
Grab something yellow!
[Lively chatter, shouting]
Come now! Now the next yellow thing!
Where is it?! Find it somewhere in the room!
[Excited chatter, shouting]
Keep going, keep going!
- Can I help you? - Eh, I'm gonna need to take Tadgh.
- There's a family emergency. - Is everything okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine.
His mother just asked me to collect him, so...
- And who are you? - I'm Tadgh's father. Danny.
Okay, it's just his mother never mentioned anything about him being collected.
I'll have to check. It's protocol.
Absolutely, no problem.
[Lively chatter]
[Danny] Tadgh! Tadgh!
- Get your shoes on. Quick, good boy. - Daddy, where are we going?
[Danny] We need to go.
Just get this shoe on. Here, do it outside.
- [He strains] - Good boy.
[Danny] Right...
[Teacher shouts excitedly]
Let's see them arms!
[Gentle music; Birds squawk]
Mammy doesn't let me have sweets a lot.
[Fanny] Well, you're with your daddy today, though, aren't you?
Mm-hm.
I got you something.
Got you a present. Hold that.
[Danny sniffles]
- What's in it? - [Danny] It's a surprise.
Open it.
[Paper rustles]
[Tadgh] Oh! Let's see.
[Vehicle approaches]
Football boots!
- D'you like them? - [Tadgh] Yeah!
I'm glad you like them.
- [Tadgh] Yep! I sure do. - Yeah!
Don't make a scene, now, okay? Not in front of the child.
- Go on, take him back to his mum. - What are you doing? That's me kid.
[Garda] Don't make a scene.
I'm not making a scene. That's me son, mate.
Not in front of the child. Come on, now, we'll get you home.
- Get your hands off him. - Not in front of the child, okay?
Come on, we'll get you on home, now.
- I'll see you soon, buddy, yeah? - [Garda] Come on, this way, here.
- [Tadgh] Yeah, bye, Daddy. - [Car door opens]

[Will] This is a video for Power, yeah?
I hope you're fucking watching. Killing my fucking dog!
These are your fucking drugs!
You see that, Power? Yeah, you're only a fucking bitch!
You're not going to do fucking anything about it, you little fucking bitch!
Do something! Fuck you, you prick!
Look at your drugs on fire!
That's only the fucking start of it!
I'm telling you, I'm coming to that scrapyard
and I'm burning it to the fucking ground!
[Music fades, he exhales]
[Danny] Will!
Will!
Will...
Will!
[Will breathes shakily]
[Danny] Will?
- Wake up. - [Will breathes shakily]
How long have you been out here? You're freezing.
[Uneasy music]
[Danny] He's soaking wet.
You have any dry clothes or a warm blanket?
- Yeah, yeah, come on in. - [Danny] Come on.
It's freezing.
- Okay. - [Music fades]
[Kate] Just put him over there. I'll be with you in a second.
[Danny] Okay...
Let's see.
You're okay.
There's some clothes there. I've got a towel here.
[Will breathes shakily]
- [Kate] What happened? - [Danny] I found him.
In the woods. He's been out all night.
[Kate] Danny, you need to get him to the hospital.
[Danny] They'd find him there.
They'll kill him.
[Will breathes shakily]
He's not safe.
- [Danny exhales] - Okay.
I don't know what to do.
Listen to me, okay?
You need to talk to the police. They'll protect him.
- I can't do that. - You have to.
You need to get yourself sorted.
You don't need to worry about me.
Look at me.
You've done so much.
[Vehicle approaches, siren blares]
I'm sorry.
I had to.
- Come on. Come on, up. - [Will breathes shakily]
Up you get.
Here, let's go.
- We'll go out the back way. - I'm sorry.
[Will breathes shakily]
[Sombre music]
[Horse snorts]
[Paulie] Now, walk on, walk on.
Walk on, walk on.
Stand up, stand up.
Stand up.
Sound, Jay. Do you wanna wash her down there for us?
What's happening?
[Music fades]
So, where's that horse that lost us all the money?
It's inside, in the stable. Wanna go have a look at her?
- [Horse snorts] - Have you seen the video?
Yeah, it's doing the rounds everywhere. Everyone's seen it.
- Everyone? - Everyone.
- Half of that was yours. - What?
Yeah.
Now, I don't know what else he's capable of, so...
...are you just gonna wait around and find out?
This is him here. Magic Mike.
M'up, Magic.
M'up.
You know, there's only one way to deal with a nag like him.
And that is to, uh...
...put him down.
[Uneasy music]
When?
Soon as you find him.
Done.
[Music continues]
- [Music continues] - [Buyer] Here, Paul's looking for a oner.
[Indistinct conversation]
[Vehicle approaches]
- [Darren] Here's a gram, yeah. - [Buyer] Right.
Where the fuck is Will?
- Have you seen him?! - No, I haven't seen him, Frenchie, bro.
Let's go.
[Tyres screech, engine revs]
- [Joyce] Heya, Tadgh. - Hi.
- [Joyce] D'you remember me? - No.
[Joyce] No? I'm a friend of your daddy's.
Okay.
- [Joyce] D'you know where he is? - No.
[Joyce] No? Okay.
I'll tell you what. I have something for you.
Okay.
- [Joyce] I hear you like trucks. - Yeah.
[Joyce] Now, you can have this truck,
- but you have to do something for me. - [Tadgh] Okay.
You have to tell your daddy that I say hello.
- Okay. - [Joyce] Okay?
Okay.
[Joyce] Good boy.
[Music continues]
[Music fades]
Sit. Thank you.
So, what happens if he doesn't show up?
It's simple, really. You get full custody.
Danny.
- [Danny] What's wrong? - Me ma is after texting me.
Saying what?
Someone told her what happened to my dog, Buddy. She's found out.
Who?
I don't know. She's raging. Look, man, I'd better go.
- See you back at camp. - I'll catch you later.
Any idea where he is?
[Door creaks]
[Door shuts]
Since timekeeping is clearly not your strong point...
- is it okay with you if we begin? - Yes, Judge. Sorry, Judge.
[Judge] Apology accepted.
So, Mr Sullivan, can you please tell me a little about yourself?
- [He exhales] - Well, my name is Daniel...
Sullivan. Um...
- [Tadgh] Daddy, I had a nightmare. - [Voice echoes]
[Unnerving music]
There was a really scary monster under my bed.
- Daddy, wake up! Wake up! - [Voice echoes]
[Music fades]
I've been having... a pretty bad year this year.
I'm just trying to get me life back together...
...and...
be a father again and...
...yeah.
Okay.
And presently, you are homeless. Is that right?
That's correct, yeah.
And you made the access order before or after the incident?
After.
And then you stopped seeing your son, is that right?
Yeah, because she threatened a restraining order.
He was cursing and shouting abuse at the house.
Because you wouldn't let me see Tadgh!
Is that a way to treat your son? After what he put him through...
Okay, Ms Smith, please.
Thank you.
Um, at the moment, are you in any employment, Mr Sullivan?
No.
All right, I see here stated that you are currently enrolled
in a voluntary work-practise module
with a charity shop.
Yeah. Great people.
[Judge] A Kate O'Toole has given you a very positive reference.
I would ask the Child and Family Agency to carry out a full report
under Section 20 of the Child Care Act, 1991,
and I'm adjourning this case for a week.
- Daddy! Daddy! - [Danny] Tadgh!
How's the best boy in the world?
- How are you? - Good.
It's good to see you.
Can you do bedtime?
I can't tonight, pal.
I'm always gonna be your dad. You know that, don't you?
- Yeah. - Good boy. Good boy.
[Gentle music]
[Tadgh grunts affectionately]
[Danny] What you got there?
- You eating sweets again? - A toy.
A toy?
Where'd you get that?
A man gave it to me outside school.
A man? Can I see?
[Gill] Tadgh, let's go, son. Come on.
- Go on back to your Mammy. - [Gill] Come on. Good boy.
Well done. You did such good waiting. Will we go for some food?
[Disquieting music]
[Door shuts]

Ma?
[Tense music; Door creaks, Mother whimpers]
[Music continues; Bustling chatter]
Here, what the fuck do you want, buddy?
- Argh, fuck! - Have you been following me?
- What did you tell them? - Said he's not gonna hurt him.
The address of my son's school?!
[Darren breathes shakily]
Said he's not going to hurt him. I just wanted to give him something, man.
And Will?
- [He cackles] - Will is fucked!
[Music continues]
- [Joyce] Grab him. - Wait, for what?
For what!? For what!?
- [Mother whimpers, muffled] - Shh. Shut the fuck up.

You're gonna tell me, or I'm gonna stick this into your fucking neck
and up through your skull, you fucking piece of shit.
Now, where is he?
- Where is he?! - All right, I'll bring him now!
Where's your car?
- Where's your car?! - It's outside, it's outside.
[Danny] Get your fucking keys. Get the fuck up.
[Music continues]

[Mocking laughter; Blow thuds]
- Are you all right? - Are you all right, are you?
Take it easy on him, bro.
[Sarcastic groaning]
Look at him, lads. Look at him.
Gonna crawl away, are you?
Get back here, you little fool, you.
[Will gasps frantically]
[Uneasy music]
How much longer?
[Frenchie] Farm's just ahead. Next right turn.
[Danny] What are they gonna do with Will?
