Red Rock (2015) s01e25 Episode Script

Episode 25

Michael Hennessy I am arresting you having received new information pertaining to your involvement in the death of Darren Kiely.
I know Sergeant McGonigle is worried about you, concerned maybe you rushed back to work too soon after such a traumatic experience.
Honestly I'm okay.
I never thought I would say this but I can barely stand to look at you.
Maybe I should move out so.
Maybe you should.
Let's look at this from a jury's point of view.
You left him for dead.
Now how will that look Michael? PHONE RINGS The DPP really knows how to brighten up a fella's day, don't they? It's their gift to the world.
I know he's family, and just how tricky this is for you, look for what it's worth I think it's the right result.
I know.
Doesn't make it any easier though.
Sorry it's not better news.
Now I've just got to figure out how to tell Claire.
Good luck with that.
They saw you coming.
It's Disneyland.
Taking the family to a decent holiday aren't I? Holiday? I'd be moving into Mickey's gaff for that price! Might be the last time Mel joins us.
They don't stay kids for long you know.
Is there not a mug in this place that doesn't have something living in the bottom of it? Try the cupboard, why don't you? Ha-that's hilarious! I can guarantee there's nothing living in that, Sean! I told you, I'm not doing it.
How the hell am I gonna tell him? I really thought it was gonna be manslaughter.
This isn't your fault.
Try telling Michael that.
He didn't murder Darren Kiely.
And what about David? If they went with murder for Michael you can be sure they're gonna accuse David of withholding evidence in a few weeks.
Will you just sit down for five minutes? Suppose it wouldn't look good for the DPP, taking it easy on the Super's brother-in-law? Drink your coffee Claire will ye? You know, you could've told me this over the phone.
No, I couldn't.
Me not being pregnant again does not mean you need to treat me with kid gloves.
"Even though he left Ireland, Ireland never left him".
"It was his dying wish to be laid to rest in Red Rock".
Is this all of him? Derek O'Reilly.
"Unfortunately, we can't afford to fly over, so I entrust my Poppa's ashes with y'all".
Plastic paddies! Like we've nothing better to be doing! Where the hell is this Cow Park place she's on about anyway? You better find it, buddy.
The grieving daughter has mailed her old fella all the way from the US of A.
Sean, please tell me that's not what I think it is? Okay Sarge, before you say anything.
Not trying to chuck your man down the jacks were you? Are you out of your mind?! We're still waiting for GSOC to deliver their report on the Currie death.
Over which your conduct is in question.
You, of all people, need to keep your nose clean.
You tell me where this Cow Park is then? Cow Park.
You know it? Yeah of course I know it.
Who in their right mind wants to be scattered on that dump? Derek O'Reilly.
When did this arrive? This morning.
I thought it was a wind up at first but Sarge? Got nothing better to do than stand around here, Garda Holden? Did you hear what I said, Michael? Murder.
Don't worry pet.
Claire's gonna sort it, aren't you? What, she can keep me out of the Joy? What's this about Mountjoy? It's only for a couple of days at most.
He'll be on remand until he's seen in the High Court.
What? I did tell you.
Christ Claire, you think I'd forget something like that? Having a go at me is not exactly helpful mum.
Oh, I'm sorry, should I book you in for a deep tissue massage? A bit of Reiki? I forgot you're the one who's really under pressure here, not Michael.
PHONE RINGS Leave it.
Harbour Haulage.
Richie, yeah, I wanted a chat about those new contracts.
But eh, I'm in the middle of something.
I'll give you a shout back.
They won't prove it.
I promise you.
Is there anything else you haven't told me, Michael? Anything that would help? He's told you everything.
We should probably go to the station then.
You take your time pet.
It's okay, I'm ready.
Yes I read that in your letter and I completely understand.
Angela wouldn't rat on us, tell McKay about the jacks, would she? Paudge? You haven't seen Sharon's notebook lying around the place anywhere have you? It's got to be in here.
And I distinctly remember putting it in this drawer.
I never leave it lying around.
Grow legs, did it? That notebook is evidence.
All our cases from last month go belly up you don't find it fast.
Yeah I know that.
You do know this is Brian don't you? Oh Sharon, this has to stop.
I'm telling you.
Have a check in the car again? Humour me.
Bloody women.
Forget it, sunshine, you've got no chance.
I wouldn't be so sure.
I can read you like a book, Fifty Shades of Blue.
Watch and learn, Paudgy boy, watch and learn.
Alright, Nikki, how's it going? Not so bad, how's yourself, Westlife? What was that? Westlife, that's what everyone upstairs calls you.
Thanks for that.
LAUGHTER James, you need to step up and do something.
I won't have Michael sent to Mountjoy.
There's nothing I can do Patricia.
Please, there must be something.
If there was, don't you think I would have done it? Your father would be proud of you.
You stay strong in there.
You'll be back out again before you know it.
And I'll be here when you get out.
Head go on.
Michael Jack Hennessy, you are charged that on the 7th of January murder Darren Anthony Aloysius Kiely, contrary to Common Law.
Do you understand the charges? Yes.
You are not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so.
Anything you do say will be taken down in writing and may be given in evidence.
You ever think about where you'd like to be buried, scattered, whatever.
When you're dead? It'd have to be somewhere special, right? Bloody hell, Angela.
What's with the Grim Reaper routine!? Somewhere that meant something to you.
So why would a bloke, who wasn't even from round here, want to end up in Cow Park? They don't call it that now.
Used to be farmland, that tip at the back of the old railway yard.
Oh yeah, where the kids go knacker drinking? Doesn't make sense, unless I know that look.
D'you ever hear about Ruth Fagan? The girl who went missing, back in 1983.
Vaguely.
She used to hang around with a group of us in Cow Park.
My misspent youth.
They never found her though? There was a fella in the frame.
But nothing ever came of it.
Legged it as soon as he was released.
Never came back.
Until this morning.
Special delivery.
The ashes? He was a suspect? Daughter reckons he was on his deathbed, breathing through a tube, kept going on and on about Red Rock, and how they had to get back to Cow Park.
What if she was mistaken? He wasn't telling her where to scatter him at all.
He was talking about where Ruth's body is.
You can't win against Brian.
It's not a game, Paudge.
I know that.
Time, legwork, money, that's what you've cost us.
I said, I think I know where it is.
Know or think? 'Cause thinking won't get us anywhere.
Just drop it okay? What can I do for you Sharon? I think you know.
I want it back now.
Excuse me? Hey What have you done with my notebook? Hey enough of that, I said enough of that.
Don't touch me! What are you two playing at? Nothing, just a misunderstanding.
Well that's all it had better be, I've enough going on.
Bit of a domestic there, was it? The daughter's letter, and some stuff I got off the internet, it'll give you some background.
I'll do more digging when I get back from the Kielys.
You think there's any chance of re-opening the case? Leave it with me, okay.
Don't you ever call me a thief again.
What would you prefer? Paedophile? What I wouldn't give to see Patricia's face right now.
Makes a change that lot on the sharp end of the stick! (Sniffs) Oh, thought I could smell bacon.
Nice to see you too, Keith.
They're charging that Hennessy bastard with murder! Is he going down? Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Where is he now? He's being held at the station, then he'll be Getting special treatment, I bet.
I'll give him special treatment, eh Ma.
Don't be making threats, Keith.
You telling my son what he can and can't say in his own house!? As I was saying, Michael'll be transferred to Mountjoy, same as anyone.
He'll get battered in there! About bleedin' time! If you need to talk, want anymore information.
Feel free to call me any time.
See yourself out.
(Keith Sniffs) Finally we're getting justice.
Someone will come in to check on you at regular intervals.
Why? Oh You're entitled to a meal.
The shepherd's pie isn't too rotten.
Or we have a machine? I don't want Stephen coming home to an empty house again.
It's work, Tommy, yes, it's important.
You have something or someone you need to be with? That is a low blow, even for you.
McKay's after you.
Good work, Angela.
Thanks, boss.
The forensics team are there now.
Nikki says you knew the girl? Ruth was the first friend I made after we moved to Dublin.
She was a live-wire you know, fearless.
My mum thought she was a bad influence on me.
Probably was.
Some of the background doesn't make for great reading.
'Promiscuous and heavy drinking'.
You can't beat a bit of Your average teenager I'd say.
Nothing average about Ruth.
The papers'll be swarming all over this when it gets out.
You know what they're like.
You gonna be okay? Yeah, why wouldn't I be? If that's everything, I should be getting on.
PHONE RINGS D'you mind? Yeah, hello.
Michael Hennessy, what about him? Did that fella die in here? Michael Just asking.
No, it wasn't this cell.
That's something, eh? You're going to court.
Yeah, I know, Claire said.
No, now Michael.
Claire's on her way.
But I thought that we were going to There's been a change of plan.
Then I'll come back here, right? I'm going to Mountjoy tonight? It's not as bad as they make out.
I know what it's like for lads like me in there.
Rich kids.
Be queueing up, won't they? You need to stop that, now.
You don't show any weakness in there.
Do you hear me? I'm sorry.
I'm sorry all this has happened.
I'm sorry I can't do more to help you.
But now you need to be strong.
So all that you're feeling, all that fear, you bury it.
You know all that bull your mum goes on with about standing tall, being a Hennessy? Now you believe it like nothing else matters.
You know our Darren's up there, looking down on you.
If you hadn't made that statement He can't thank you.
I'm doing it for him.
You should get home, Da.
Thanks for letting me know.
Why don't you come with me? I know you miss the place.
It's where you belong.
Get your stuff together, and come home tonight.
I'm sorry I threw you out.
I can't.
Tomorrow then.
Why not? Me mate's flat, it's like something out of a magazine.
Everything works, everything's clean.
No fear of tripping over Keith's skiddy underpants in the bathroom.
She don't love you.
Unless there's something you're not telling me.
Listen we'll see you tomorrow, right.
They're gonna eat him alive in there.
It shouldn't have come to this.
Why don't you leave all this for tonight.
What's wrong with me? Nothing.
Can't do right by Michael.
Can't do anything.
Your life would have been so much easier if you'd married someone else.
Now you tell me! It's true though You would have been a father by now.
Okay stop, this is nonsense.
I don't care about all that stuff.
I married you.
I want you that's all.
Everything else we'll figure it out together.
Okay.
But all this IVF stuff, we need to take a break now, a proper break.
We agreed Claire, we discussed it and we agreed that was the deal.
Let's just think about this.
We have frozen embryos just sitting there.
No.
Do I have a say in this at all? You had your say and so did I and we agreed.
It's clear to me that we both need a break from all this.
I know I do.
Oven chips.
Guess what, Stephen? You put them in the oven.
Put them on at 180.
Till they're done.
Look I got to go son.
I dunno when I'll be home.
Yeah.
Love you.
Your friend Ruth They've found a body.
