Tuesday Traders (2025) Movie Script
(upbeat music)
Did you write a letter recently?
Can I read it?
I'm gonna end up reading it anyway.
Say Duncan you're my hero.
Duncan you're my hero.
No way.
You're gonna be buying me
a good Christmas present
this year, buddy.
I think you're right.
(laughs)
I can't believe it's been a year, Fred.
Yeah, lovely way to remember Caoimhe.
Just wish she could have been here.
Maybe she was.
Maybe she's looking down on us right now.
Maybe.
She'd want you to take her somewhere nice
with all those winnings.
Ya dark horse, Fred.
How much was it in the end?
Not bad.
All right, I have to head off, gents.
Yeah, Yeah me too.
Put them back.
I brought them with me.
You don't mind, do you, Fred?
No.
See?
No, you're right.
He's right.
Sure I got work anyway.
I'll see you, lads.
Don't stay too late, gents.
Smoke?
Last meal.
I think I threw half a burger in the bin
I could dig it out for ya.
Why didn't you tell them?
Why didn't you?
Did you want me to?
No.
I didn't think so.
You could always do it this way.
Takes a bit longer, I know,
but you get there in the end.
Like Gerry.
Speaking of Gerry.
Cheers.
See, I wouldn't do this to you.
Do what?
Well, first off, refuse a cheers.
And second.
Kill myself.
Who says I'm gonna do it?
When have you ever not done something
you said you were gonna do?
Have you made up your mind?
Don't answer that question.
Relax.
Relax, he says.
I'm afraid the next words out of my mouth
are gonna send you up the stairs
and stick your head through that thing
and I'm gonna have to
wrestle you out of it.
You wouldn't be able to.
Oh.
You'd fight me, would you?
Someone you've known
practically since the womb,
you'd fight me so that you
were able to kill yourself.
Yeah.
I would.
Would you kill me?
It takes a lot to kill a man.
That's what you said.
Doesn't really feel like anything,
but it takes a lot of energy,
that's what you told me.
Why don't you just take that energy
and instead of turning
it in, just turn it out.
Oh.
Someone would get hurt, would they?
If it's only me I'm hurting,
then I'm hurting nobody.
You're dead wrong there.
My Fiona, my Sarah,
they love you.
Gerry.
Duncan.
I only see them once a year.
Whenever Gerry needs a lend.
What if I did it?
How would it feel if I killed myself?
I can't even imagine how
Sarah and Fiona would feel
if I did it.
Because they're yours, Stevie.
You haven't met yours yet.
You know what I mean?
I've been praying.
Well, maybe you'll have a second chance.
I met mine.
Have a drink with me.
Have a drink with me.
No.
Come on.
Have a drink with me.
Have a drink with me, Fred.
Good night, Stevie.
Can you turn that down?
It's our only means of
communication with the station.
So, no.
Oh give us a minute will ya?
You've been napping since we got here.
I didn't think it'd be like this.
I thought we'd be out there,
helping people.
You get used to it.
We've got something.
There's a car with an
unresponsive occupant.
Where?
Crough Woods.
Toger Central.
Probably somebody fell asleep
after getting around the way.
It can happened to the best of us.
Well, Jack says you should
come and check it out anyway.
It seems urgent.
Let's go.
Sergeant.
Sergeant.
Stevie.
Ah, Stevie.
When will they just leave her alone?
They were very fond
of your father, Sarah.
Just paying their respects.
Aren't they surely just
going through the motions.
Yeah, some of them are, yeah.
Who's grave is tha?
It's his Mrs.
A drunk driver did her in
little rich kid.
Didn't spend a day inside.
Daddy's barristers work.
Fucking lethal.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Sarah.
We're all just in shock.
My dad didn't kill himself.
This is going to be hard to accept.
It is, it is hard to
accept because it's bullshit.
He wouldn't do that.
He didn't do that.
What are you gonna do about it?
Army man.
Garda sergeant.
Doesn't work like that, Sarah.
Clearly not.
Way to stick that knife in, aye?
Fred.
Well the dead arose and appeared to many.
Two small ones, Maxie.
You back on the drink?
Two small ones.
All right.
You back on the drink?
To Stevie.
Stevie.
He got there before me, Gerry.
I forgot how much
Crack you were at parties.
There's something wrong with it.
It's getting out of hand.
It's probably nothing.
That's all to it.
Didn't see Duncan at the funeral.
He's probably out.
Kissing hands and shaking babies.
Hello, gents.
Didn't see you at the funeral.
Important politics to attend to.
I don't know why I was at the funeral.
It was just the wrong one.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, I was running
late, snuck in the back,
and didn't realise
until the last few minutes
when they called out her name.
You know, I think
Stevie would have liked that.
Anything for a vote, huh?
Ooh.
Can I count on yours?
Keep these coming.
And we'll talk.
Maxie.
We were four strong.
We were four strong.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
STEVIE!
LADS!
I wanna go home.
Duncan, come on, you settle up with me.
Yeah, I'll get this, let me get this.
Ah na stop.
You're army pension wouldn't cover that.
For all of the day, yeah?
Why not?
What about the month?
What about the year?
Ah would ya stop.
I want you all out here
when I get back, okay?
Oh, Maxie, I'm going
to a wedding tomorrow,
and I was wondering would
you like to accompany me?
Would you ever fuck off, Gerry?
Maxie said yeah.
I think so too.
Hey, Fi.
Yeah, no, I'm not busy at all.
Okay?
Yeah sure.
See you then.
Hey.
Can I come in?
It's Fred.
Heya Fred, cup of tea?
Uh, sure.
Would you mind love?
Is there anything I can do?
Well, actually, our car.
I just haven't had a chance
to collect it from the station.
Ah, Susan, yes, I've been on
hold for the last 20 minutes.
I'll get it, no problem.
Can you, um, get rid of it?
The roster, well, I'll keep
calling back until I get it.
I can try get market value.
See what I can do.
Thanks.
No, Monday, yes, I
will be back on Monday.
Bye.
It's something else, Fred.
Ah.
Oh, is that one of ours?
You can keep that if you like.
You okay?
Yeah.
You?
Thanks.
What the hell?
What are you doing?
You're gonna check out
my dad's car aren't you?
Check it out and claim on the insurance.
Yes, so take me with you.
No.
Why?
So I can check for clues about his murder.
The only person who
murdered your dad, was your dad.
You're fucking useless.
He's otherwise engaged.
I don't mind waiting.
He won't be much longer.
Must have been some wedding.
You'd have a lot of half of it.
What you doing in my neck of the woods?
Let's sort out this car.
Hello. Kilmcross Garda Station.
Okay.
And your location.
All right, we'll be there.
It was just a pity I
didn't get there a bit earlier.
I'd have kicked his arse for doing
something so stupid.
Is this what you call a secure lock-up?
It's all we have.
Was that there when you found it?
A bit deep at the back,
Shallow at the front.
Deliberate?
Nah.
Probably kids yano? A bit of vandalism.
Did you get forensics to look at this?
No, I'm sorry, Captain.
I didn't realise someone
made you the head honcho.
That a collision?
Maybe.
Stevie drove like a granny.
Maybe.
Played a bit of bumper cars
when he went off the rails.
Last hurrah.
Did he leave a note?
No.
Sorry.
Sorry is right.
Who knows what goes on in people's minds?
Well, I'm beginning to
think he didn't do it.
Would you ever fuck, Sherlock.
Where's the letter?
There's not always a letter.
Any personal belongings?
In the lock-up.
Can I see them?
No, because they'd
have me balls upstairs.
Look, I brought you out here to check the
car for the insurance.
Not to go around chasing phantoms.
Why are you a guard?
NASA wouldn't have me.
Our mate is dead and.
There's a chance that some foul play
could be involved in it.
I just don't think he'd do it.
You're beginning to sound
like Fiona's young one.
Fiona and Stevie's young one.
Maybe she's right.
Anyway, let me know when forensics are
finished with the car.
I know my rights.
I know my rights.
Just calm down.
Calm down.
Would ya just calm down.
Who the fuck are you?
You're not a fucking Garda
I know my rights.
I know my rights.
I know my lefts.
What the hell are you doing?
Are you okay?
I had him under control.
Oh yeah, sure you had.
I did.
And I didn't need a
civilians help in dealing with him.
He's got a case for
assault against you now.
My schedule's open.
I'll fit it in.
That was your right hand, by the way.
Know my lefts.
Hey, what's happening?
Will you help me with him?
C'mon you.
What's his problem?
Yeah, he thinks that
that suicide was a murder.
All right, sunshine, come on.
Mam.
Would you mind love? Please.
It's gone cold.
I know, yeah. I made it for you.
Sarah, I have to figure
out your dad's finances.
Our finances.
Whatever's left.
What does that mean?
It means I'm going to have to work some
extra shifts and get through
a pile of paperwork, but
Everything's going to be fine, okay?
Mum, what does that mean,
though? What about finances?
It means I really need to focus, Sarah.
Hello.
Hello.
You don't mind if I eh.
Warm myself by the fire, do ya?
I'm Gregors.
Arkadi.
This is Zura.
You get lost camping.
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
Camping, yeah.
There's nothing like
a bit of nature, eh?
You can't sit out here forever, though.
I'm looking for work, lads.
There's no work here.
In town, I heard you
were the guys to ask.
What kind of work?
Ah, you know, stealing, intimidation,
arson.
That kinda work.
Arson?
Yeah.
This shit box made of timber, huh?
If you go back again, you won't leave.
(Speaking Georgian)
Gerry.
I'm a busy man, Jerry, what's up?
What am I looking at?
Rhinestone.
Gerry, do you know how long it took me
to get this site sorted?
What happened, Gerry?
It was probably some
kids playing with fire.
I don't care.
If it's kids, find out what happened
and get it sorted.
Just do your job, Gerry.
You.
Coward, you absolute coward.
You're feeling guilty now, is it?
So, so guilty that you have to do
the exact same thing as him.
Where's the tube?, no,
no, no, Fred, come on.
No, no, no, no, no.
Where's the tube? There's the engine Fred.
No, go on, I'll help you.
I'll make sure you're
not alone when you go
just like my dad was, is that what you
You were right.
I believe you.
So, what brought you out here?
I just went for a drive.
I went for a walk.
Shouldn't you be in school?
I'm in college.
Yeah, studying what?
Counselling.
Counselling.
Can you counsel me?
No.
I wouldn't blame you.
Is the office upstairs?
Yeah.
Okay.
Sarah. Is That you?
Mom, um, yeah, eh Fred is here.
Don't want you worrying about any
of the financial stuff, okay?
We'll sort it out somehow.
Thank you.
Hi, love.
Duncan was just going through some
photographs with me.
How you holding up, Sarah?
Yeah, fine.
Fred, I wasn't expecting you.
Sorry, I...
He needs the insurance forms for the car.
I thought you had everything you needed.
Ah, look, it's just some extra paperwork.
Make the whole thing go smoother.
Okay.
It's up in Dad's office, isn't it?
Yeah.
Ah, Fred.
I want to show you something.
What do you think?
Oh, wow.
That was a lifetime ago.
Yeah, we were happy kids.
Where did it all go wrong?
Look, I'll leave you to it.
Eh, I won't be long, okay?
Thanks, Fred.
Hey, that was always my favourite.
Yeah.
He was a cheeky devil.
Why was Duncan here?
I don't know.
Probably trying to make up for
missing the funeral.
I don't suppose you know the password.
What would you need the password for?
Well, I'm settling
the insurance for Fiona,
so I just need his paperwork.
Huh, paperwork
usually comes in paper form.
I'll help.
Many hands and all that.
And Gerry tells me you were
doing a bit of police work
at the station yesterday.
I was having a bad day.
We have a day of the races planned,
Gerry will be there,
you should come along.
That sounds good.
Yeah, you can blow off a little steam
in a safer manner.
Ah, I think this is
what you're looking for.
See you at the races?
I'll see you there.
I'll let Fiona know you
got what you came for.
The poor thing, I don't think it's
dawned on her fully yet.
Fred, look after yourself, okay?
We all deal with this differently.
Thanks.
Wait, Fred, we need to
get into Dad's computer.
Sarah, your mam has been through enough.
Oh, Fred, she's fine,
she even said it herself
that we have to keep
moving on and it all go.
It might look like
she's handling it right now,
but it hasn't hit her yet.
And when it does,
it'll come like a train.
You just make sure
you're there with her, okay?
Wait, what about the computer?
I know someone that could
help us out like a techie guy.
It's better we don't involve anyone else
until we figure it out ourselves, okay?
Yeah, okay.
Sarah, I mean it. Yeah?
You're gonna do it anywhere, aren't you?
Yeah.
All right, just make sure I'm there
when you're getting in, okay?
Yeah, okay.
No.
No what?
Whatever it is you want me to do, no.
Is that how it is?
You've got Brd here
worried sick she's gonna lose her job
because she couldn't
contain some violent nut bag.
She did okay.
I was referring to you.
You're on CCTV assaulting a prisoner,
which conveniently enough went missing.
You're welcome.
You've got my super up my arse,
wondering what the fuck am I doing,
allowing an insurance assessor
to assist me on a suicide investigation.
So no, whatever it is
you want me to do, no.
A pint?
You're still a bollox.
So how long did they say?
I'm sorry, Mr. Fitzgerald.
The tow truck won't be coming through
until sometime next week.
Yeah, that just won't do.
Did the insurance assessor come out?
He certainly did.
And he took his pictures
and filled out his report.
I believe he did.
Okay, I'll get it out of your hands.
I'll have my boys come by and pick it up.
Well, I think that maybe
we should talk to...
Arkadi?
Yeah, I have a job for you.
But I think we should
look after the grieving widow
in this case.
And sort out these
minor details for her.
Agreed.
A car.
Yeah, I want it
brought to the breakers yard.
What?
You've been assaulted.
Well, just so happens I'm
at the Garda station now.
Yeah, here, I'll pass it on.
New case for you.
Hello?
And when did this take place?
(Mumbling)
Do you miss her?
Every day.
Gone too soon, Fred.
And so is Stevie.
What's this?
It's his note.
This is fake.
It's a photocopy, Fred.
It's still a fake.
You ever know Stevie to
be a man of few words?
Good man, Gerry.
Morning, big fella.
I could have sworn I
went home last night.
And I could have sworn
there was an angry walrus
sawing timber in the sitting room.
C'mon, breakfast is ready.
So what's the plan?
Get some paracetamol, go home, suffer.
With the note, Gerry.
It's his, Fred.
Can't be.
He'd never do it.
He did, and it's his.
It's not even his handwriting.
He was locked, Fred.
His blood alcohol was through to Roof.
In most of these
cases, alcohol is involved.
He checked out, pal.
Did you look at the car?
I don't know, check
the area for footprints?
There'll be tourists all over it.
No, there won't, I was up there.
What?
I was having a look around.
You'd be suspect
number one, you know that?
Gerry, forensics,
gotta find something here.
Please.
Fine.
Look, if Dusty gets back with anything,
I'll let you know, but I
wouldn't hold your breath.
Thanks, buddy.
Hello?
Sarah?
You okay?
Yeah, no, no, calm
down, look, I'm on my way.
Did you know?
Know what?
We could lose the house.
I thought you guys
were doing really well.
So did I.
Well, he was going to meetings.
We were happy.
Did he say anything to you?
No.
He must have said something to you.
Fred, he told you everything.
Why weren't you there for him?
Why?
I mean, he was there for you
through the whole thing with Caoimhe and
It's just I miss him.
I know.
Maybe, maybe he just
didn't do this to us.
Oh, sweetheart, come here.
Come here, come here.
What can I do?
Nothing.
Just tell me what to do.
There is nothing you can do, Fred.
It's okay pet.
(sombre music)
Do you think they'll be any trouble?
No.
You worried?
No.
Don't be.
They're harmless.
Trust me.
Arkadi?
So, he's tall, he's got brown eyes,
short brown hair, and
he wears army fatigues.
Shit army fatigues.
So basically Rambo.
Like Rambo from a euro shop.
And he attacked you?
Yes.
Unprovoked.
Yes.
He attacked you and then left.
What made him leave?
Arkadi managed
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
We asked him to leave
like an unwelcome guest
and he obliged.
So if we find him, we're
not gonna see any marks
or bruises?
Not from us.
Maybe from a trip or fall in the woods.
This was the other
night when we called you.
We'll keep an eye out for him.
Where were you on the 22nd?
Okay, I think we've
asked enough questions.
Sergeant.
Leave.
You sure you're okay with this?
Yeah, genuinely, I've
loads of college work.
Take the break, mam.
Give me a hug.
I'm proud of you.
Call me, yeah?
Yeah I will.
What the hell was that about?
I was about to ask you the same question.
They could be involved in Steven's death.
We are here for a weekly
domestic violent call out.
We did it, we ticked the box.
Gerry, your friend is dead.
Yes, my friend, not yours.
So quit behaving like a detective
and focus on your own job.
I'm sorry, Brd.
This case has me all over the place.
I mean, Stevie.
Stevie was one of the
biggest gamblers in the country.
I mean, it really had a hold on him,
like nobody's business.
I mean, who knows if he
he just took on too much,
he couldn't do it, he
couldn't look after him.
Sorry.
I didn't know.
What about Fred?
He's convinced that Stevie didn't do it.
Fred, Fred's a bit mental.
He has his own issues.
I just feel like both
of them are dragging me
on this fantasy and
I'm going along with them
for the old times sake.
It's interfering with me work.
It's one thing you should remember, kid.
There are no friends in business.
Okay, try your birthday.
Do it backwards.
You were terrible at this.
If we just wait for my friend.
Late, where is he?
Do your birthday, do it forwards.
Did we do it forwards?
Try it.
Oh, that's him, that's him.
Hello, beautiful.
Don't worry.
I'll be gentle.
Did that tiny little
box just do all of that?
Well, his name is
Zeus and yes, yes he did.
This is the algorithm your dad set up.
Yeah, what are we looking at here?
What's called Japanese candles.
Now, when the candle is green
How much?
What?
How much money?
Oh, a lot.
And then nothing.
Looks like he took it out.
Oh, but he can't.
What do you mean he can't?
This is just a
tracker to correspond with.
I can't believe this.
What?
He made it better than I could have.
Well done, Stevie.
Wait, is this gambling?
No.
Yes.
It's not, it's stocks.
But prices like that,
Brett, it is gambling.
So is this how mam could lose the house?
Well, we're gonna try
and figure that out.
If this is a tracker,
then the money must be going somewhere.
Can you find out where?
Me and Zeus can try our best.
Sarah!
Sarah, you up here?
Eh.
Ah, there you are.
I was knocking and calling outside,
but there was no answer,
so I let myself in.
Is your mum home?
Um, no, she's away.
Oh, I have something for her.
That's my friend.
He's keeping me company.
Right.
Hey, here's the check for the insurance.
Wait, what?
I thought Fred was taking care of that.
Um, Fred's
Fred has his issues, okay.
You know he was in the army,
and PTSD is quite common,
and I didn't wanna put
him under any pressure,
so I figured I could look after it.
Duncan, where is the car?
It's crushed.
What?
Duncan, there's evidence,
there's fingerprints,
there's proof, there's...
Oh dear, you've been through so much.
Okay, let's go downstairs,
put the Kettle on, we'll have a chat.
How's it going?
All good.
Where are you off to, son?
I'm, uh, looking for work.
Oh yeah?
Asking all around the town, are ya?
That's generally what you do, yeah?
Didn't happen to ask two
Georgian gentlemen, did you?
I can't recall.
I may have dropped my CV in there,
and I may have been rejected, strongly.
Maybe I should talk to the supervisor.
Maybe you should come down to the station
and answer a few questions.
Whirl?(broken English)
Whirl.
Whirl?
Your English is getting better.
(Speaking Georgian)
Your Georgian is getting worse.
Better than learning
from the cartoons, huh?
Yeah.
(Speaking Georgian)
(speaking Georgian)
(phone ringing)
Yes?
Okay.
Let's go.
Come on.
Some people say it's a
chemical imbalance in the brain.
Your father. Did you notice
that he always worked late of a Tuesday?
No.
Well, it was a
Uh different
kind of work, I suppose.
It was a charity I helped set up
for those addicted to gambling.
Your father attended
every week without fail.
I've spoken to your mother and
It appears he left behind a lot of debt.
You don't need to worry about it.
Myself and your father,
we promised each other.
If anything ever happened to the other,
we'd look after each other's families.
Okay.
We've got this.
If you need anything.
You don't hesitate to ask.
Okay?
Okay.
Okay, I think I've found something.
There's three companies.
SG Transactions,
Redstone and Elgar Trading.
Hey, I think we've found something.
Leave both of you.
Sarah?
What's going on?
Nothing.
We can't help.
Can you bring back my dad?
No, so go.
Get out!
Brett you stay.
If you want me to leave, I'll leave.
No.
What if he did do it?
What if all of this is
just wishful thinking?
What if he didn't?
I just want him back.
Okay, come on.
Come here.
Okay.
Okay.
Have a drink with me Fred?
Have a drink with me Fred?
All right, should we get started, yeah?
Thank you all for coming.
First step to recovery is showing up.
So thanks.
New members are of course always welcome.
You don't need to
speak if you don't want to.
There's no judgement here.
Anybody who wants to speak can speak.
And let's please keep
comments until the end.
Okay.
Hello everyone.
My name is Fred.
Hi Fred.
Hi Fred.
Hi Fred.
And I'm a gambler, chronic gambler.
My friend Stevie used to come here.
And he had his problems, God rest him.
But he's inspired me to be here today.
Do I need to say more?
No, not at all.
Very well said Fred, thank you.
Anyone else?
Okay.
Hi, my name is Ciril.
And I'm a compulsive gambler.
Took me a long time to
say it, but I'm glad I did.
Probably one of the
hardest things I ever did.
But it's worth it, trust me.
Short meeting tonight.
Oh.
They're as long or as
short as they have to be.
I didn't feel very welcome.
Oh no, no.
That has nothing to do with you.
It's, well it's with
what happened to Stevie.
You know, they're just reminded
that the same thing can happen to them.
What's that?
Well, get in over your head with debt
and you know.
With my addiction, I
built up a lot of crypto.
Oh.
I didn't really
understand what I was getting into
at the time and I'm afraid to log back in
and it's worth a lot.
I'm just wondering.
I don't know Fred, I wouldn't be touching
the crypto stuff myself now.
It's too dangerous.
Well, if there's
anything you can do to help me,
Ciril, I'd really appreciate it
because I'd like to give it to Fiona.
Gerry.
What is it?
What?
Major Keller, sir.
Dead Eye.
Well, at ease.
Did you miss me, sir?
No.
The Social, said to look you up.
Said you were doing well.
You could be an example to me.
Did they now?
I'm on a mission.
I can see that.
Just some recon, Major.
Now I need to point out to you
that this man is not a solicitor.
And I'd like to point out
that I don't give a shit.
Well, that attitude's
gonna get you far sunshine.
You wanna keep a handle on
your client Fred, yeah?
Major.
He goes by Major.
That's lovely.
Private Gregors.
You spent a lot of time in the Army
and still only came out a private.
Something go wrong?
Mental health issue?
Born in Germany.
Moved to Ireland.
Joined the Army.
I'm guessing that's
where you two boys met.
You've got me.
Recently coming into my town,
starting fires and fights.
Have we got you now?
I'd like to report a crime.
Good.
Why don't we start with
the torching of a building
on the 15th?
There's this fake
bonds scam going around.
Sister Carmel, lost all her money to it.
Otherwise that building
would have never been there
in the first place.
And you wouldn't have burned
it down, you little psycho.
Are you even listening to me?
Huh?
Them two boys are more
than just debt collectors.
You listen to me, you
little psycho arsonist.
I have you now.
So get yourself nice and comfy.
Recon Major.
Recon.
He was with me.
He was with me.
Fuck you Fred.
On the 15th.
He stayed in my house.
You're a fucking liar.
Prove it.
Are you gonna charge him with anything?
If you wanna bring that psycho arsonist
back into your home,
you go for it.
But don't come crying to me
when he burns down your house.
Yee-haw!
The cavalry have arrived.
Get in the car.
Fred, I just thought you should know.
I got word from a friend
at the coroner's office.
Let me guess, death by misadventure.
And Duncan got the car crushed
so there'll be nothing from forensics.
No.
There'll be no homicide investigation.
Let me ask you something.
Are there any good
cops left in this country?
Anyone actually cares.
Apart from you.
I just,
I just thought that you should know.
Is this all yours?
Yes.
All mine.
You really have it all?
Had it all.
How do you do it?
Do what?
Live normal.
I don't.
Do your friends know what it was like?
No.
Did your wife?
Yeah, she did.
I should have taken that shot.
Don't.
I couldn't.
You could.
It's just the way it was.
People got hurt.
You shouldn't have even been there.
You were too young.
Greg?
What's going on?
What's the mission?
Sister Carmel.
You remember her?
That's my mission.
She wanted us at the convent though
before she stepped down.
Went to the banks, they wouldn't help.
Then she got smooth talked
by some shithead.
That heard she was looking to get a loan.
And asked her if she'd invest.
Promised her that it would become good.
And did at the start,
it was all going well.
And she put everything in.
And they took everything.
They took everything.
Them two boys are the debt collectors.
She said she was gonna go to the police.
They sent them around.
They threatened to burn her out of it.
Burned the whole thing to the ground.
I couldn't be sure it was
them until I found them.
I wanted to look them right in the eye.
They wiped her out.
I'm convinced that's what killed her.
No court will convict.
No court will convict.
But it was the
guilt that broke her heart.
She didn't do anything wrong.
Right.
They might as well have
strangled her with their bare hands.
What was the name of that company?
Elgar Trading.
Brett, everything you
know about Elgar Trading.
Where you off to chief?
To the races.
Na you're fine.
Sorry I'm late lads.
There he is.
Ya little turncoat.
I hear you're a solicitor now Fred.
He's an old friend.
Did you leave him at home
with a box of matches?
I'm sure you do the same.
You stay away from my station.
I don't care if the Pope calls you.
Do you understand?
Gentlemen, please, let's enjoy the race.
Who do you think Fred?
Lucky number 11.
Oh, the bigger picture.
Oh, 20 to 1.
What do you think?
Well, he's never wrong.
So, a little birdie tells me you've got
some crypto to get rid of.
Who told you that?
Ciril.
Why would Ciril tell you?
Because I'm a patron.
I didn't know you had a problem Fred.
You should have talked to me about it.
Thanks so much for coming
along. I really appreciate it.
Enjoy the rest of your day.
We're all hurting about Stevie.
We all deal with this differently.
Elegar trading.
Have you heard of it?
Never.
I want to invest.
Drop the detective act Fred.
If I find out that you or any of you're
gambling buddies have
anything to do with Stevie's death.
We all have something to
do with Stevie's death.
Well, look around you.
Remember where you are.
How many people in this crowd alone have
lost someone the way Stevie went?
Now, how many people blame themselves?
Yeah, Stevie didn't kill himself.
Stevie wasn't murdered Fred. You just
wish he was because
Gives you something to live for.
Yeah?
Stevie told me about that time he had to
talk you off the rope.
Guilt, Fred.
That's what's driving you fucking crazy.
And don't you ever threatened me again.
I won't.
That's a 5% increase.
Very well done Peter.
Ah Fred, you're a
bit early for next weeks
I'm not going to ask any questions until
you're ready to answer.
Are you ready?
Yes, yes, yes, I'm ready, I'm ready.
I'm ready.
Dunc calls us the Tuesday
traders.
He was taking funds from his office.
He needed to put them
back before anyone found out.
And that's where you came in?
Yes.
At first it was like gambling.
It was the same odds,
the same returns.
We started small, but the bigger the risk
the bigger the returns.
And who better to bring in money
than a room full of gambling addicts.
Then he started thinking bigger.
We were doing good.
He started giving back to the community.
Then he started taking and then owing.
And all this through Elgar trading.
That's only one of the companies we use.
We take the money, we
place the orders, we give
the customers a percentage of their money
back.
Sometimes we don't.
And what about Stevie?
Stevie was the best.
He started trading on his own.
Doing better than all of us combined.
He wanted out.
And Duncan did him in?
I don't know.
Look, I want to know
exactly what happened to Stevie.
I don't know.
Ask the Georgian lads. They do his dirty
work. I swear. We
don't know what happened
to Stevie.
Duncan keeps himself well insulated
through me, through the
companies, through them.
What did you tell him for.
Ciril? What did you tell him for?
There's nothing you can do about it.
Hey Brd. You should come down to the
community centre.
You have to arrest me.
I lost the plot.
I just broke Ciril's nose.
Wait. No.
Shit. Fuck.
Shit.
And he told you all this?
Elgar trading.
Look into it.
And get a forensic
accountant. I don't know.
But you'll see for yourself.
He won't say anything.
He won't say that you attacked him.
I can't even get him to say that.
Don't trust Duncan. And don't
What? Get out.
Sergeant.
Get the fuck out!
The mask slips.
You're losing control.
I'm not yours to control.
Going around
assaulting random people.
Accusing Duncan of murdering somebody
who committed suicide.
Pretending to be a solicitor.
At least I'm not
pretending to be a guard.
There's no talking to you.
I want you to take my statement.
I already have Ciril
and the boy's statement.
He slipped. Something about slippery
floors in the centre.
Then some psycho bursts in.
Yammering on about
some conspiracy theory.
He says he's going to kill himself after
he's killed everyone else.
PTSD they're saying.
From the army.
Elgar trading.
Fuck you.
I want it in my statement.
Leave before I have you committed.
Well you do what you have to do.
How are you even going to prove that.
Elgar trading exists?
I can prove it.
Fiona's young one
and her computer boyfriend.
They're your star witnesses.
Yeah, go on.
I'll have you up for assault of me and
then I'll fuck you into the
loony bin where you belong.
Dead eye. You're up. Let's go.
Oh, please.
I'd love to see what she
could do at close range.
No, no.
Please.
Bag him.
Who are you?
Where's Duncan?
Get away.
What are you doing?
What is this?
Green.
Tell me what happened to Stevie.
We don't know.
Tell me what happened to Stevie.
Bastard.
Green.
I want you to tell me
what happened to my friend.
I'm no rat.
I'd look away if I was you.
Red.
I tell you everything.
Everything.
I don't want everything.
I just want the truth.
OK.
I tell you.
I tell you.
You're not listening to me.
I can't work with you.
I've been listening
to you the entire time.
Look, your family's money is
my family's money.
Yeah, I've been paying
for a secondary school.
I'll take care of my school.
It's not just about you, OK
I'm going to give you an
extra percentage point.
We're going to make it better.
OK, this is going to be a good thing.
You know what?
No.
No.
Yes, Stevie.
No.
I'll call over later on, Stevie.
See you, pal.
Give me that!
We're all,
going to be rich
(engine starts)
So it was all for money?
And what isn't.
Would you testify in court?
Are you mad?
No.
No.
What do you want to do with these?
They're just soldiers.
Hey.
Does it ever go away?
This feeling.
No.
It doesn't.
But Stevie,
He loved you more then anything else
in the whole wide world.
Then why did he do this?
Why did he leave us
with absolutely nothing?
Duncan said he was sick, and you...
Duncan's a liar.
You were right, Sarah.
Your dad didn't kill himself.
It was Duncan.
Myself and your
father promised each other
if anything ever happened,
we'd look after each other's
families.
He's responsible for Stevie's death.
So did you go to the guards?
No.
I could beat a confession out of them.
But it won't hold up in court.
We could go to the guards
with all the financial evidence.
Force their hand.
If Brd has the bottle
to go through with it.
But they'd just make a show of it.
Slap on the wrist.
Nothing substantial.
Their names would be dragged
through the mud
for about two weeks
and then all forgotten.
And Stevie and all the other victims,
They won't be remembered.
Men like this,
they don't change.
And in many year's time,
they'll be back to their old tricks again.
Or worse.
And that's what the system does.
It's set up for them to win.
We have to do something, mam.
They can't get away with this.
We can't let them.
I could do something about it.
It won't bring back Stevie.
I could do something.
And we'd all sleep a
little bit better at night.
I could.
Let's go home, Sarah.
OK, Fred.
Fred, you know who's
burning down my buildings.
Stevie was our friend.
There's no friends in business.
Since we were kids.
We're not kids any more, pal.
I'll tell you everything!
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[KNOCKING]
You killed him.
I didn't touch him.
You killed him for money.
Money's a matter of life and death, Fred.
For all of us.
So what are you going to do with that?
Nothing.
Wait what do you mean nothing.
Fred.
What do you mean nothing?
What are you going to do, Fred?
Huh?
Are you going to kill me?
No.
Huh.
What are you going to do, Fred?
Are you going to get me someday?
Yeah.
Yeah, I wouldn't do this to you.
Well, first off, refuse a cheers.
And second.
Kill myself.
He was locked, Fred.
His blood alcohol was through the roof.
He check out man.
I didn't touch him.
Drink up Stevie (distorted)
He played a bit of
bumper cars when he,
went off the rails, last hurrah.
He did, so quit behaving
like a detective
and focus on your own job
Stevie was one of the biggest
gamblers in the country.
You stay away from my station.
Accusing Duncan of
murdering somebody,
who committed suicide.
Get the fuck out!
It's from him.
Have a drink with me, Gerry.
Have a drink.
Did you write a letter recently?
Can I read it?
I'm gonna end up reading it anyway.
Say Duncan you're my hero.
Duncan you're my hero.
No way.
You're gonna be buying me
a good Christmas present
this year, buddy.
I think you're right.
(laughs)
I can't believe it's been a year, Fred.
Yeah, lovely way to remember Caoimhe.
Just wish she could have been here.
Maybe she was.
Maybe she's looking down on us right now.
Maybe.
She'd want you to take her somewhere nice
with all those winnings.
Ya dark horse, Fred.
How much was it in the end?
Not bad.
All right, I have to head off, gents.
Yeah, Yeah me too.
Put them back.
I brought them with me.
You don't mind, do you, Fred?
No.
See?
No, you're right.
He's right.
Sure I got work anyway.
I'll see you, lads.
Don't stay too late, gents.
Smoke?
Last meal.
I think I threw half a burger in the bin
I could dig it out for ya.
Why didn't you tell them?
Why didn't you?
Did you want me to?
No.
I didn't think so.
You could always do it this way.
Takes a bit longer, I know,
but you get there in the end.
Like Gerry.
Speaking of Gerry.
Cheers.
See, I wouldn't do this to you.
Do what?
Well, first off, refuse a cheers.
And second.
Kill myself.
Who says I'm gonna do it?
When have you ever not done something
you said you were gonna do?
Have you made up your mind?
Don't answer that question.
Relax.
Relax, he says.
I'm afraid the next words out of my mouth
are gonna send you up the stairs
and stick your head through that thing
and I'm gonna have to
wrestle you out of it.
You wouldn't be able to.
Oh.
You'd fight me, would you?
Someone you've known
practically since the womb,
you'd fight me so that you
were able to kill yourself.
Yeah.
I would.
Would you kill me?
It takes a lot to kill a man.
That's what you said.
Doesn't really feel like anything,
but it takes a lot of energy,
that's what you told me.
Why don't you just take that energy
and instead of turning
it in, just turn it out.
Oh.
Someone would get hurt, would they?
If it's only me I'm hurting,
then I'm hurting nobody.
You're dead wrong there.
My Fiona, my Sarah,
they love you.
Gerry.
Duncan.
I only see them once a year.
Whenever Gerry needs a lend.
What if I did it?
How would it feel if I killed myself?
I can't even imagine how
Sarah and Fiona would feel
if I did it.
Because they're yours, Stevie.
You haven't met yours yet.
You know what I mean?
I've been praying.
Well, maybe you'll have a second chance.
I met mine.
Have a drink with me.
Have a drink with me.
No.
Come on.
Have a drink with me.
Have a drink with me, Fred.
Good night, Stevie.
Can you turn that down?
It's our only means of
communication with the station.
So, no.
Oh give us a minute will ya?
You've been napping since we got here.
I didn't think it'd be like this.
I thought we'd be out there,
helping people.
You get used to it.
We've got something.
There's a car with an
unresponsive occupant.
Where?
Crough Woods.
Toger Central.
Probably somebody fell asleep
after getting around the way.
It can happened to the best of us.
Well, Jack says you should
come and check it out anyway.
It seems urgent.
Let's go.
Sergeant.
Sergeant.
Stevie.
Ah, Stevie.
When will they just leave her alone?
They were very fond
of your father, Sarah.
Just paying their respects.
Aren't they surely just
going through the motions.
Yeah, some of them are, yeah.
Who's grave is tha?
It's his Mrs.
A drunk driver did her in
little rich kid.
Didn't spend a day inside.
Daddy's barristers work.
Fucking lethal.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Sarah.
We're all just in shock.
My dad didn't kill himself.
This is going to be hard to accept.
It is, it is hard to
accept because it's bullshit.
He wouldn't do that.
He didn't do that.
What are you gonna do about it?
Army man.
Garda sergeant.
Doesn't work like that, Sarah.
Clearly not.
Way to stick that knife in, aye?
Fred.
Well the dead arose and appeared to many.
Two small ones, Maxie.
You back on the drink?
Two small ones.
All right.
You back on the drink?
To Stevie.
Stevie.
He got there before me, Gerry.
I forgot how much
Crack you were at parties.
There's something wrong with it.
It's getting out of hand.
It's probably nothing.
That's all to it.
Didn't see Duncan at the funeral.
He's probably out.
Kissing hands and shaking babies.
Hello, gents.
Didn't see you at the funeral.
Important politics to attend to.
I don't know why I was at the funeral.
It was just the wrong one.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, I was running
late, snuck in the back,
and didn't realise
until the last few minutes
when they called out her name.
You know, I think
Stevie would have liked that.
Anything for a vote, huh?
Ooh.
Can I count on yours?
Keep these coming.
And we'll talk.
Maxie.
We were four strong.
We were four strong.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
His name lives on.
STEVIE!
LADS!
I wanna go home.
Duncan, come on, you settle up with me.
Yeah, I'll get this, let me get this.
Ah na stop.
You're army pension wouldn't cover that.
For all of the day, yeah?
Why not?
What about the month?
What about the year?
Ah would ya stop.
I want you all out here
when I get back, okay?
Oh, Maxie, I'm going
to a wedding tomorrow,
and I was wondering would
you like to accompany me?
Would you ever fuck off, Gerry?
Maxie said yeah.
I think so too.
Hey, Fi.
Yeah, no, I'm not busy at all.
Okay?
Yeah sure.
See you then.
Hey.
Can I come in?
It's Fred.
Heya Fred, cup of tea?
Uh, sure.
Would you mind love?
Is there anything I can do?
Well, actually, our car.
I just haven't had a chance
to collect it from the station.
Ah, Susan, yes, I've been on
hold for the last 20 minutes.
I'll get it, no problem.
Can you, um, get rid of it?
The roster, well, I'll keep
calling back until I get it.
I can try get market value.
See what I can do.
Thanks.
No, Monday, yes, I
will be back on Monday.
Bye.
It's something else, Fred.
Ah.
Oh, is that one of ours?
You can keep that if you like.
You okay?
Yeah.
You?
Thanks.
What the hell?
What are you doing?
You're gonna check out
my dad's car aren't you?
Check it out and claim on the insurance.
Yes, so take me with you.
No.
Why?
So I can check for clues about his murder.
The only person who
murdered your dad, was your dad.
You're fucking useless.
He's otherwise engaged.
I don't mind waiting.
He won't be much longer.
Must have been some wedding.
You'd have a lot of half of it.
What you doing in my neck of the woods?
Let's sort out this car.
Hello. Kilmcross Garda Station.
Okay.
And your location.
All right, we'll be there.
It was just a pity I
didn't get there a bit earlier.
I'd have kicked his arse for doing
something so stupid.
Is this what you call a secure lock-up?
It's all we have.
Was that there when you found it?
A bit deep at the back,
Shallow at the front.
Deliberate?
Nah.
Probably kids yano? A bit of vandalism.
Did you get forensics to look at this?
No, I'm sorry, Captain.
I didn't realise someone
made you the head honcho.
That a collision?
Maybe.
Stevie drove like a granny.
Maybe.
Played a bit of bumper cars
when he went off the rails.
Last hurrah.
Did he leave a note?
No.
Sorry.
Sorry is right.
Who knows what goes on in people's minds?
Well, I'm beginning to
think he didn't do it.
Would you ever fuck, Sherlock.
Where's the letter?
There's not always a letter.
Any personal belongings?
In the lock-up.
Can I see them?
No, because they'd
have me balls upstairs.
Look, I brought you out here to check the
car for the insurance.
Not to go around chasing phantoms.
Why are you a guard?
NASA wouldn't have me.
Our mate is dead and.
There's a chance that some foul play
could be involved in it.
I just don't think he'd do it.
You're beginning to sound
like Fiona's young one.
Fiona and Stevie's young one.
Maybe she's right.
Anyway, let me know when forensics are
finished with the car.
I know my rights.
I know my rights.
Just calm down.
Calm down.
Would ya just calm down.
Who the fuck are you?
You're not a fucking Garda
I know my rights.
I know my rights.
I know my lefts.
What the hell are you doing?
Are you okay?
I had him under control.
Oh yeah, sure you had.
I did.
And I didn't need a
civilians help in dealing with him.
He's got a case for
assault against you now.
My schedule's open.
I'll fit it in.
That was your right hand, by the way.
Know my lefts.
Hey, what's happening?
Will you help me with him?
C'mon you.
What's his problem?
Yeah, he thinks that
that suicide was a murder.
All right, sunshine, come on.
Mam.
Would you mind love? Please.
It's gone cold.
I know, yeah. I made it for you.
Sarah, I have to figure
out your dad's finances.
Our finances.
Whatever's left.
What does that mean?
It means I'm going to have to work some
extra shifts and get through
a pile of paperwork, but
Everything's going to be fine, okay?
Mum, what does that mean,
though? What about finances?
It means I really need to focus, Sarah.
Hello.
Hello.
You don't mind if I eh.
Warm myself by the fire, do ya?
I'm Gregors.
Arkadi.
This is Zura.
You get lost camping.
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
Camping, yeah.
There's nothing like
a bit of nature, eh?
You can't sit out here forever, though.
I'm looking for work, lads.
There's no work here.
In town, I heard you
were the guys to ask.
What kind of work?
Ah, you know, stealing, intimidation,
arson.
That kinda work.
Arson?
Yeah.
This shit box made of timber, huh?
If you go back again, you won't leave.
(Speaking Georgian)
Gerry.
I'm a busy man, Jerry, what's up?
What am I looking at?
Rhinestone.
Gerry, do you know how long it took me
to get this site sorted?
What happened, Gerry?
It was probably some
kids playing with fire.
I don't care.
If it's kids, find out what happened
and get it sorted.
Just do your job, Gerry.
You.
Coward, you absolute coward.
You're feeling guilty now, is it?
So, so guilty that you have to do
the exact same thing as him.
Where's the tube?, no,
no, no, Fred, come on.
No, no, no, no, no.
Where's the tube? There's the engine Fred.
No, go on, I'll help you.
I'll make sure you're
not alone when you go
just like my dad was, is that what you
You were right.
I believe you.
So, what brought you out here?
I just went for a drive.
I went for a walk.
Shouldn't you be in school?
I'm in college.
Yeah, studying what?
Counselling.
Counselling.
Can you counsel me?
No.
I wouldn't blame you.
Is the office upstairs?
Yeah.
Okay.
Sarah. Is That you?
Mom, um, yeah, eh Fred is here.
Don't want you worrying about any
of the financial stuff, okay?
We'll sort it out somehow.
Thank you.
Hi, love.
Duncan was just going through some
photographs with me.
How you holding up, Sarah?
Yeah, fine.
Fred, I wasn't expecting you.
Sorry, I...
He needs the insurance forms for the car.
I thought you had everything you needed.
Ah, look, it's just some extra paperwork.
Make the whole thing go smoother.
Okay.
It's up in Dad's office, isn't it?
Yeah.
Ah, Fred.
I want to show you something.
What do you think?
Oh, wow.
That was a lifetime ago.
Yeah, we were happy kids.
Where did it all go wrong?
Look, I'll leave you to it.
Eh, I won't be long, okay?
Thanks, Fred.
Hey, that was always my favourite.
Yeah.
He was a cheeky devil.
Why was Duncan here?
I don't know.
Probably trying to make up for
missing the funeral.
I don't suppose you know the password.
What would you need the password for?
Well, I'm settling
the insurance for Fiona,
so I just need his paperwork.
Huh, paperwork
usually comes in paper form.
I'll help.
Many hands and all that.
And Gerry tells me you were
doing a bit of police work
at the station yesterday.
I was having a bad day.
We have a day of the races planned,
Gerry will be there,
you should come along.
That sounds good.
Yeah, you can blow off a little steam
in a safer manner.
Ah, I think this is
what you're looking for.
See you at the races?
I'll see you there.
I'll let Fiona know you
got what you came for.
The poor thing, I don't think it's
dawned on her fully yet.
Fred, look after yourself, okay?
We all deal with this differently.
Thanks.
Wait, Fred, we need to
get into Dad's computer.
Sarah, your mam has been through enough.
Oh, Fred, she's fine,
she even said it herself
that we have to keep
moving on and it all go.
It might look like
she's handling it right now,
but it hasn't hit her yet.
And when it does,
it'll come like a train.
You just make sure
you're there with her, okay?
Wait, what about the computer?
I know someone that could
help us out like a techie guy.
It's better we don't involve anyone else
until we figure it out ourselves, okay?
Yeah, okay.
Sarah, I mean it. Yeah?
You're gonna do it anywhere, aren't you?
Yeah.
All right, just make sure I'm there
when you're getting in, okay?
Yeah, okay.
No.
No what?
Whatever it is you want me to do, no.
Is that how it is?
You've got Brd here
worried sick she's gonna lose her job
because she couldn't
contain some violent nut bag.
She did okay.
I was referring to you.
You're on CCTV assaulting a prisoner,
which conveniently enough went missing.
You're welcome.
You've got my super up my arse,
wondering what the fuck am I doing,
allowing an insurance assessor
to assist me on a suicide investigation.
So no, whatever it is
you want me to do, no.
A pint?
You're still a bollox.
So how long did they say?
I'm sorry, Mr. Fitzgerald.
The tow truck won't be coming through
until sometime next week.
Yeah, that just won't do.
Did the insurance assessor come out?
He certainly did.
And he took his pictures
and filled out his report.
I believe he did.
Okay, I'll get it out of your hands.
I'll have my boys come by and pick it up.
Well, I think that maybe
we should talk to...
Arkadi?
Yeah, I have a job for you.
But I think we should
look after the grieving widow
in this case.
And sort out these
minor details for her.
Agreed.
A car.
Yeah, I want it
brought to the breakers yard.
What?
You've been assaulted.
Well, just so happens I'm
at the Garda station now.
Yeah, here, I'll pass it on.
New case for you.
Hello?
And when did this take place?
(Mumbling)
Do you miss her?
Every day.
Gone too soon, Fred.
And so is Stevie.
What's this?
It's his note.
This is fake.
It's a photocopy, Fred.
It's still a fake.
You ever know Stevie to
be a man of few words?
Good man, Gerry.
Morning, big fella.
I could have sworn I
went home last night.
And I could have sworn
there was an angry walrus
sawing timber in the sitting room.
C'mon, breakfast is ready.
So what's the plan?
Get some paracetamol, go home, suffer.
With the note, Gerry.
It's his, Fred.
Can't be.
He'd never do it.
He did, and it's his.
It's not even his handwriting.
He was locked, Fred.
His blood alcohol was through to Roof.
In most of these
cases, alcohol is involved.
He checked out, pal.
Did you look at the car?
I don't know, check
the area for footprints?
There'll be tourists all over it.
No, there won't, I was up there.
What?
I was having a look around.
You'd be suspect
number one, you know that?
Gerry, forensics,
gotta find something here.
Please.
Fine.
Look, if Dusty gets back with anything,
I'll let you know, but I
wouldn't hold your breath.
Thanks, buddy.
Hello?
Sarah?
You okay?
Yeah, no, no, calm
down, look, I'm on my way.
Did you know?
Know what?
We could lose the house.
I thought you guys
were doing really well.
So did I.
Well, he was going to meetings.
We were happy.
Did he say anything to you?
No.
He must have said something to you.
Fred, he told you everything.
Why weren't you there for him?
Why?
I mean, he was there for you
through the whole thing with Caoimhe and
It's just I miss him.
I know.
Maybe, maybe he just
didn't do this to us.
Oh, sweetheart, come here.
Come here, come here.
What can I do?
Nothing.
Just tell me what to do.
There is nothing you can do, Fred.
It's okay pet.
(sombre music)
Do you think they'll be any trouble?
No.
You worried?
No.
Don't be.
They're harmless.
Trust me.
Arkadi?
So, he's tall, he's got brown eyes,
short brown hair, and
he wears army fatigues.
Shit army fatigues.
So basically Rambo.
Like Rambo from a euro shop.
And he attacked you?
Yes.
Unprovoked.
Yes.
He attacked you and then left.
What made him leave?
Arkadi managed
(Speaking Georgian)
(Speaking Georgian)
We asked him to leave
like an unwelcome guest
and he obliged.
So if we find him, we're
not gonna see any marks
or bruises?
Not from us.
Maybe from a trip or fall in the woods.
This was the other
night when we called you.
We'll keep an eye out for him.
Where were you on the 22nd?
Okay, I think we've
asked enough questions.
Sergeant.
Leave.
You sure you're okay with this?
Yeah, genuinely, I've
loads of college work.
Take the break, mam.
Give me a hug.
I'm proud of you.
Call me, yeah?
Yeah I will.
What the hell was that about?
I was about to ask you the same question.
They could be involved in Steven's death.
We are here for a weekly
domestic violent call out.
We did it, we ticked the box.
Gerry, your friend is dead.
Yes, my friend, not yours.
So quit behaving like a detective
and focus on your own job.
I'm sorry, Brd.
This case has me all over the place.
I mean, Stevie.
Stevie was one of the
biggest gamblers in the country.
I mean, it really had a hold on him,
like nobody's business.
I mean, who knows if he
he just took on too much,
he couldn't do it, he
couldn't look after him.
Sorry.
I didn't know.
What about Fred?
He's convinced that Stevie didn't do it.
Fred, Fred's a bit mental.
He has his own issues.
I just feel like both
of them are dragging me
on this fantasy and
I'm going along with them
for the old times sake.
It's interfering with me work.
It's one thing you should remember, kid.
There are no friends in business.
Okay, try your birthday.
Do it backwards.
You were terrible at this.
If we just wait for my friend.
Late, where is he?
Do your birthday, do it forwards.
Did we do it forwards?
Try it.
Oh, that's him, that's him.
Hello, beautiful.
Don't worry.
I'll be gentle.
Did that tiny little
box just do all of that?
Well, his name is
Zeus and yes, yes he did.
This is the algorithm your dad set up.
Yeah, what are we looking at here?
What's called Japanese candles.
Now, when the candle is green
How much?
What?
How much money?
Oh, a lot.
And then nothing.
Looks like he took it out.
Oh, but he can't.
What do you mean he can't?
This is just a
tracker to correspond with.
I can't believe this.
What?
He made it better than I could have.
Well done, Stevie.
Wait, is this gambling?
No.
Yes.
It's not, it's stocks.
But prices like that,
Brett, it is gambling.
So is this how mam could lose the house?
Well, we're gonna try
and figure that out.
If this is a tracker,
then the money must be going somewhere.
Can you find out where?
Me and Zeus can try our best.
Sarah!
Sarah, you up here?
Eh.
Ah, there you are.
I was knocking and calling outside,
but there was no answer,
so I let myself in.
Is your mum home?
Um, no, she's away.
Oh, I have something for her.
That's my friend.
He's keeping me company.
Right.
Hey, here's the check for the insurance.
Wait, what?
I thought Fred was taking care of that.
Um, Fred's
Fred has his issues, okay.
You know he was in the army,
and PTSD is quite common,
and I didn't wanna put
him under any pressure,
so I figured I could look after it.
Duncan, where is the car?
It's crushed.
What?
Duncan, there's evidence,
there's fingerprints,
there's proof, there's...
Oh dear, you've been through so much.
Okay, let's go downstairs,
put the Kettle on, we'll have a chat.
How's it going?
All good.
Where are you off to, son?
I'm, uh, looking for work.
Oh yeah?
Asking all around the town, are ya?
That's generally what you do, yeah?
Didn't happen to ask two
Georgian gentlemen, did you?
I can't recall.
I may have dropped my CV in there,
and I may have been rejected, strongly.
Maybe I should talk to the supervisor.
Maybe you should come down to the station
and answer a few questions.
Whirl?(broken English)
Whirl.
Whirl?
Your English is getting better.
(Speaking Georgian)
Your Georgian is getting worse.
Better than learning
from the cartoons, huh?
Yeah.
(Speaking Georgian)
(speaking Georgian)
(phone ringing)
Yes?
Okay.
Let's go.
Come on.
Some people say it's a
chemical imbalance in the brain.
Your father. Did you notice
that he always worked late of a Tuesday?
No.
Well, it was a
Uh different
kind of work, I suppose.
It was a charity I helped set up
for those addicted to gambling.
Your father attended
every week without fail.
I've spoken to your mother and
It appears he left behind a lot of debt.
You don't need to worry about it.
Myself and your father,
we promised each other.
If anything ever happened to the other,
we'd look after each other's families.
Okay.
We've got this.
If you need anything.
You don't hesitate to ask.
Okay?
Okay.
Okay, I think I've found something.
There's three companies.
SG Transactions,
Redstone and Elgar Trading.
Hey, I think we've found something.
Leave both of you.
Sarah?
What's going on?
Nothing.
We can't help.
Can you bring back my dad?
No, so go.
Get out!
Brett you stay.
If you want me to leave, I'll leave.
No.
What if he did do it?
What if all of this is
just wishful thinking?
What if he didn't?
I just want him back.
Okay, come on.
Come here.
Okay.
Okay.
Have a drink with me Fred?
Have a drink with me Fred?
All right, should we get started, yeah?
Thank you all for coming.
First step to recovery is showing up.
So thanks.
New members are of course always welcome.
You don't need to
speak if you don't want to.
There's no judgement here.
Anybody who wants to speak can speak.
And let's please keep
comments until the end.
Okay.
Hello everyone.
My name is Fred.
Hi Fred.
Hi Fred.
Hi Fred.
And I'm a gambler, chronic gambler.
My friend Stevie used to come here.
And he had his problems, God rest him.
But he's inspired me to be here today.
Do I need to say more?
No, not at all.
Very well said Fred, thank you.
Anyone else?
Okay.
Hi, my name is Ciril.
And I'm a compulsive gambler.
Took me a long time to
say it, but I'm glad I did.
Probably one of the
hardest things I ever did.
But it's worth it, trust me.
Short meeting tonight.
Oh.
They're as long or as
short as they have to be.
I didn't feel very welcome.
Oh no, no.
That has nothing to do with you.
It's, well it's with
what happened to Stevie.
You know, they're just reminded
that the same thing can happen to them.
What's that?
Well, get in over your head with debt
and you know.
With my addiction, I
built up a lot of crypto.
Oh.
I didn't really
understand what I was getting into
at the time and I'm afraid to log back in
and it's worth a lot.
I'm just wondering.
I don't know Fred, I wouldn't be touching
the crypto stuff myself now.
It's too dangerous.
Well, if there's
anything you can do to help me,
Ciril, I'd really appreciate it
because I'd like to give it to Fiona.
Gerry.
What is it?
What?
Major Keller, sir.
Dead Eye.
Well, at ease.
Did you miss me, sir?
No.
The Social, said to look you up.
Said you were doing well.
You could be an example to me.
Did they now?
I'm on a mission.
I can see that.
Just some recon, Major.
Now I need to point out to you
that this man is not a solicitor.
And I'd like to point out
that I don't give a shit.
Well, that attitude's
gonna get you far sunshine.
You wanna keep a handle on
your client Fred, yeah?
Major.
He goes by Major.
That's lovely.
Private Gregors.
You spent a lot of time in the Army
and still only came out a private.
Something go wrong?
Mental health issue?
Born in Germany.
Moved to Ireland.
Joined the Army.
I'm guessing that's
where you two boys met.
You've got me.
Recently coming into my town,
starting fires and fights.
Have we got you now?
I'd like to report a crime.
Good.
Why don't we start with
the torching of a building
on the 15th?
There's this fake
bonds scam going around.
Sister Carmel, lost all her money to it.
Otherwise that building
would have never been there
in the first place.
And you wouldn't have burned
it down, you little psycho.
Are you even listening to me?
Huh?
Them two boys are more
than just debt collectors.
You listen to me, you
little psycho arsonist.
I have you now.
So get yourself nice and comfy.
Recon Major.
Recon.
He was with me.
He was with me.
Fuck you Fred.
On the 15th.
He stayed in my house.
You're a fucking liar.
Prove it.
Are you gonna charge him with anything?
If you wanna bring that psycho arsonist
back into your home,
you go for it.
But don't come crying to me
when he burns down your house.
Yee-haw!
The cavalry have arrived.
Get in the car.
Fred, I just thought you should know.
I got word from a friend
at the coroner's office.
Let me guess, death by misadventure.
And Duncan got the car crushed
so there'll be nothing from forensics.
No.
There'll be no homicide investigation.
Let me ask you something.
Are there any good
cops left in this country?
Anyone actually cares.
Apart from you.
I just,
I just thought that you should know.
Is this all yours?
Yes.
All mine.
You really have it all?
Had it all.
How do you do it?
Do what?
Live normal.
I don't.
Do your friends know what it was like?
No.
Did your wife?
Yeah, she did.
I should have taken that shot.
Don't.
I couldn't.
You could.
It's just the way it was.
People got hurt.
You shouldn't have even been there.
You were too young.
Greg?
What's going on?
What's the mission?
Sister Carmel.
You remember her?
That's my mission.
She wanted us at the convent though
before she stepped down.
Went to the banks, they wouldn't help.
Then she got smooth talked
by some shithead.
That heard she was looking to get a loan.
And asked her if she'd invest.
Promised her that it would become good.
And did at the start,
it was all going well.
And she put everything in.
And they took everything.
They took everything.
Them two boys are the debt collectors.
She said she was gonna go to the police.
They sent them around.
They threatened to burn her out of it.
Burned the whole thing to the ground.
I couldn't be sure it was
them until I found them.
I wanted to look them right in the eye.
They wiped her out.
I'm convinced that's what killed her.
No court will convict.
No court will convict.
But it was the
guilt that broke her heart.
She didn't do anything wrong.
Right.
They might as well have
strangled her with their bare hands.
What was the name of that company?
Elgar Trading.
Brett, everything you
know about Elgar Trading.
Where you off to chief?
To the races.
Na you're fine.
Sorry I'm late lads.
There he is.
Ya little turncoat.
I hear you're a solicitor now Fred.
He's an old friend.
Did you leave him at home
with a box of matches?
I'm sure you do the same.
You stay away from my station.
I don't care if the Pope calls you.
Do you understand?
Gentlemen, please, let's enjoy the race.
Who do you think Fred?
Lucky number 11.
Oh, the bigger picture.
Oh, 20 to 1.
What do you think?
Well, he's never wrong.
So, a little birdie tells me you've got
some crypto to get rid of.
Who told you that?
Ciril.
Why would Ciril tell you?
Because I'm a patron.
I didn't know you had a problem Fred.
You should have talked to me about it.
Thanks so much for coming
along. I really appreciate it.
Enjoy the rest of your day.
We're all hurting about Stevie.
We all deal with this differently.
Elegar trading.
Have you heard of it?
Never.
I want to invest.
Drop the detective act Fred.
If I find out that you or any of you're
gambling buddies have
anything to do with Stevie's death.
We all have something to
do with Stevie's death.
Well, look around you.
Remember where you are.
How many people in this crowd alone have
lost someone the way Stevie went?
Now, how many people blame themselves?
Yeah, Stevie didn't kill himself.
Stevie wasn't murdered Fred. You just
wish he was because
Gives you something to live for.
Yeah?
Stevie told me about that time he had to
talk you off the rope.
Guilt, Fred.
That's what's driving you fucking crazy.
And don't you ever threatened me again.
I won't.
That's a 5% increase.
Very well done Peter.
Ah Fred, you're a
bit early for next weeks
I'm not going to ask any questions until
you're ready to answer.
Are you ready?
Yes, yes, yes, I'm ready, I'm ready.
I'm ready.
Dunc calls us the Tuesday
traders.
He was taking funds from his office.
He needed to put them
back before anyone found out.
And that's where you came in?
Yes.
At first it was like gambling.
It was the same odds,
the same returns.
We started small, but the bigger the risk
the bigger the returns.
And who better to bring in money
than a room full of gambling addicts.
Then he started thinking bigger.
We were doing good.
He started giving back to the community.
Then he started taking and then owing.
And all this through Elgar trading.
That's only one of the companies we use.
We take the money, we
place the orders, we give
the customers a percentage of their money
back.
Sometimes we don't.
And what about Stevie?
Stevie was the best.
He started trading on his own.
Doing better than all of us combined.
He wanted out.
And Duncan did him in?
I don't know.
Look, I want to know
exactly what happened to Stevie.
I don't know.
Ask the Georgian lads. They do his dirty
work. I swear. We
don't know what happened
to Stevie.
Duncan keeps himself well insulated
through me, through the
companies, through them.
What did you tell him for.
Ciril? What did you tell him for?
There's nothing you can do about it.
Hey Brd. You should come down to the
community centre.
You have to arrest me.
I lost the plot.
I just broke Ciril's nose.
Wait. No.
Shit. Fuck.
Shit.
And he told you all this?
Elgar trading.
Look into it.
And get a forensic
accountant. I don't know.
But you'll see for yourself.
He won't say anything.
He won't say that you attacked him.
I can't even get him to say that.
Don't trust Duncan. And don't
What? Get out.
Sergeant.
Get the fuck out!
The mask slips.
You're losing control.
I'm not yours to control.
Going around
assaulting random people.
Accusing Duncan of murdering somebody
who committed suicide.
Pretending to be a solicitor.
At least I'm not
pretending to be a guard.
There's no talking to you.
I want you to take my statement.
I already have Ciril
and the boy's statement.
He slipped. Something about slippery
floors in the centre.
Then some psycho bursts in.
Yammering on about
some conspiracy theory.
He says he's going to kill himself after
he's killed everyone else.
PTSD they're saying.
From the army.
Elgar trading.
Fuck you.
I want it in my statement.
Leave before I have you committed.
Well you do what you have to do.
How are you even going to prove that.
Elgar trading exists?
I can prove it.
Fiona's young one
and her computer boyfriend.
They're your star witnesses.
Yeah, go on.
I'll have you up for assault of me and
then I'll fuck you into the
loony bin where you belong.
Dead eye. You're up. Let's go.
Oh, please.
I'd love to see what she
could do at close range.
No, no.
Please.
Bag him.
Who are you?
Where's Duncan?
Get away.
What are you doing?
What is this?
Green.
Tell me what happened to Stevie.
We don't know.
Tell me what happened to Stevie.
Bastard.
Green.
I want you to tell me
what happened to my friend.
I'm no rat.
I'd look away if I was you.
Red.
I tell you everything.
Everything.
I don't want everything.
I just want the truth.
OK.
I tell you.
I tell you.
You're not listening to me.
I can't work with you.
I've been listening
to you the entire time.
Look, your family's money is
my family's money.
Yeah, I've been paying
for a secondary school.
I'll take care of my school.
It's not just about you, OK
I'm going to give you an
extra percentage point.
We're going to make it better.
OK, this is going to be a good thing.
You know what?
No.
No.
Yes, Stevie.
No.
I'll call over later on, Stevie.
See you, pal.
Give me that!
We're all,
going to be rich
(engine starts)
So it was all for money?
And what isn't.
Would you testify in court?
Are you mad?
No.
No.
What do you want to do with these?
They're just soldiers.
Hey.
Does it ever go away?
This feeling.
No.
It doesn't.
But Stevie,
He loved you more then anything else
in the whole wide world.
Then why did he do this?
Why did he leave us
with absolutely nothing?
Duncan said he was sick, and you...
Duncan's a liar.
You were right, Sarah.
Your dad didn't kill himself.
It was Duncan.
Myself and your
father promised each other
if anything ever happened,
we'd look after each other's
families.
He's responsible for Stevie's death.
So did you go to the guards?
No.
I could beat a confession out of them.
But it won't hold up in court.
We could go to the guards
with all the financial evidence.
Force their hand.
If Brd has the bottle
to go through with it.
But they'd just make a show of it.
Slap on the wrist.
Nothing substantial.
Their names would be dragged
through the mud
for about two weeks
and then all forgotten.
And Stevie and all the other victims,
They won't be remembered.
Men like this,
they don't change.
And in many year's time,
they'll be back to their old tricks again.
Or worse.
And that's what the system does.
It's set up for them to win.
We have to do something, mam.
They can't get away with this.
We can't let them.
I could do something about it.
It won't bring back Stevie.
I could do something.
And we'd all sleep a
little bit better at night.
I could.
Let's go home, Sarah.
OK, Fred.
Fred, you know who's
burning down my buildings.
Stevie was our friend.
There's no friends in business.
Since we were kids.
We're not kids any more, pal.
I'll tell you everything!
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[KNOCKING]
You killed him.
I didn't touch him.
You killed him for money.
Money's a matter of life and death, Fred.
For all of us.
So what are you going to do with that?
Nothing.
Wait what do you mean nothing.
Fred.
What do you mean nothing?
What are you going to do, Fred?
Huh?
Are you going to kill me?
No.
Huh.
What are you going to do, Fred?
Are you going to get me someday?
Yeah.
Yeah, I wouldn't do this to you.
Well, first off, refuse a cheers.
And second.
Kill myself.
He was locked, Fred.
His blood alcohol was through the roof.
He check out man.
I didn't touch him.
Drink up Stevie (distorted)
He played a bit of
bumper cars when he,
went off the rails, last hurrah.
He did, so quit behaving
like a detective
and focus on your own job
Stevie was one of the biggest
gamblers in the country.
You stay away from my station.
Accusing Duncan of
murdering somebody,
who committed suicide.
Get the fuck out!
It's from him.
Have a drink with me, Gerry.
Have a drink.
