The Walsh Sisters (2025) s01e02 Episode Script
Episode 2
1
Rachel! Rachel!
Couldn't wake you. I
called an ambulance.
You what? This time, I
thought she was dead.
I actually have
something to tell you.
What?!
I know, he put it in a
croissant this morning.
Walshes, I've news.
My divorce is through!
And? To Claire.
Why don't you want to tell 'em?
Look, I just don't want our
big news to be undermined
because my family think
I'm being typical.
You're afraid that I might
reveal to your actual family
that you have a secret fiancé?
I give up, Rach.
I have never been more sure.
Mum and dad don't even
know his surname, Anna.
You look like you could do it
with a lot more than a smoke.
We could barely detect a
pulse when we found you.
We are advising some
rehabilitation and support for you.
Rehab?
Hey, Anna.
I think a bit of time away at
rehab might be good for me.
Will you please pick me up?
Shit, sorry, it's right here.
Yeah. The bounce.
Walshy. Walshy. Walshy. Your
phone, answer your phone.
No. Answer your phone.
Answer your phone.
Anyway, I would like you
to open a restaurant.
Hello?
Am I speaking with Rachel Walsh?
Yeah.
Your sister Anna has
been in an accident.
Cathy
Davey - "Little Red" ♪
Hey, I, I wouldn't let him in
No, I, I wouldn't,
I wouldn't let him in.
His eyes are close together,
and he wears a toothy grin
Don't let him in
No, I wouldn't if I
were you let him in ♪
Someone please speak to that
nurse who won't let me in.
God, you seem so rational
and approachable.
That's weird. Oh,
shut up, Helen.
They said it could
take a while, Rachel.
Like, it could be
hours. They're useless.
I could stitch her
up quicker than that.
For God's sake, Rachel,
will you sit down?
Will you stop foostering?
How's Aidan? He was in
ICU when we got here.
We don't know much more.
They won't talk to us.
GDPR. ICU is never a good sign.
GDPR? Yeah.
I'll get round that.
You're going to flirt your
way into the ICU, is it?
At least I can flirt.
It's hard to do when you can't even
make eye contact with strangers.
Excuse me for being comfortable
without other people's attention.
Girls, will you give
over? For God's sake.
Hey.
Hi. Can I help you?
Hopefully.
God, how are you so efficient
and productive at four
o'clock in the morning?
I feel like a zombie.
Get used to the night shifts.
Listen, is there any way you could
give me a tiny update on Aidan?
We're all really worried.
Unfortunately, I can only
speak with his next of kin.
GDPR. GDPR.
What if I pretend to faint,
and while you're reviving me,
I just sneak peek
in his chart there?
I'll diagnose you with
not a chance syndrome.
Okay.
If you don't mind, your
sister needs my attention.
Can we see her?
My dad is pacing around.
We're all just really worried.
Okay, let me check on her.
I'll come back and get
you when she's ready.
Okay? Okay.
Mm.
Does anyone have
any painkillers?
Margaret, throw me
over my bag. Thanks.
There's loads up the corridor.
Claire could giggle a drip
out of the doctor if you want.
Now, can I get
anyone more coffee?
Oh, no. No.
Jesus.
First time we've ever
agreed on anything.
Yeah, no. Data protection
is a real thing.
Anyone else want a coffee?
Falling asleep.
We turned right onto
Harcourt Street.
You can turn right
onto Harcourt Street
from Montague Street, can't you?
I told him to turn right.
I thought you could turn right.
Did they change it?
Eh onto Harcourt Street.
Dad. Did they change it?
I don't know.
You have to know.
Can someone find out, please?
Helen, you're on your phone.
Please find out.
Maybe you can, Anna.
There's loads of
diversions around there.
Maybe you can.
I don't want maybe.
Can someone find out if you can
turn right on Harcourt Street
or get out of my room?
Anna love, why don't you just
lie there and have a rest?
Get out.
Everything okay?
All fine, doctor.
She's just upset
about roadworks.
No, I want them out of my room.
Okay, we need to let Anna rest.
Why is it so hard to
get definitive map?
Council's website is useless.
Guys, you do realise
she doesn't actually care
about the road, yeah?
Well, what else are we
supposed to do, Helen?
For God's sake, we can at
least give her some comfort.
You wouldn't try a hug, no?
If they just brought her down to
Aidan, I'm sure she'd calm down.
I better get back to Kate.
Garv will be waiting
at the door for me.
You go, love. We'll
ring in the morning.
Here, I'll walk you out.
I'm going to go back into Anna.
She might need me.
Yeah, I'd say you're
exactly what she needs.
Hi. Oh.
I thought you were the porter.
Why won't they bring me to him?
I tried to steal you a
wheelchair to bring you down,
but the guy in it was pissed.
He'll be fine.
If he sees me, I'll be fine.
But I told him to
turn right, Rach.
I think you can turn right from
Montague Street, can't you?
You definitely can, I think.
I need to know if I
did this. No, no, no.
It's okay. It's okay.
Yeah.
I'm going to find
out, okay? I promise.
You promise?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank you.
I'm gonna close my eyes I think.
Okay.
Will you give me a call when
you speak to the doctor again?
Yeah, of course.
He's probably married and just
not wearing a ring for hygiene,
but I got my hopes ups.
I thought you meant a
call about Anna and Aidan.
Oh no, yeah, that too. Sorry.
You're unbelievable.
Do you fancy him?
Or do you just hope
that he fancies you?
It's been so long I don't
know the difference.
Goodbye.
Love you.
I've been looking for you.
Lucky me.
Will you drive me into town?
Not without a fully
licenced driver.
Shit. Yeah. Okay.
Okay, it's fine. I'll walk.
You just wiggled
your way towards me.
Not fit to walk
anywhere. Watch me.
If you're going to follow me,
would you walk beside me?
You're putting me on edge.
Just keeping an eye on you.
So why are you smoking?
It's a mindfulness
breathing technique.
Yeah, tar is great
for the mind, alright?
Everyone's annoyed
at me for no reason.
No, I think that they're annoyed
that you basically nearly died
of an overdose last night,
and now, that you're high again.
But it wasn't an overdose.
Tell that to your heart.
How do I get them to
stop being annoyed?
The plan was that you'd go
to that fancy rehab place.
What happened to that plan?
It's just so dramatic,
Helen. Rehab?!
In my 20s
I'm not Amy Winehouse.
Fair.
And it would be fucking lousy
to waste dad's pension on rehab.
Could you not just like,
move somewhere boring where
there's no nightclubs and no drugs
and just, I don't know,
have some self-control?
Like, Longford or somewhere?
I don't know, Helen.
I think I'd rather go to
rehab and go to Longford.
I always forget,
you're gas, Helen.
And then we hang out
alone, and I remember.
We never hang out
alone. Well, we should.
If you weren't so snarky all
the time, we'd be great company.
You're so wise.
How's that?
From watching you all mess
everything up all the time.
You can't turn right.
No, you can't. Can you? No.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Oh, there you are.
It's like the third secret of
Fatima trying to figure out
where the pair of you had gone.
And your father's gone
looking for you as well.
We just went for a walk, to
clear the head. Relax, mum.
There's enough going on
without you two disappearing.
Alright, Maggie,
no one asked you.
Rachel.
Sorry. It's just
my head is banging.
Okay, can we just give
Anna some peace, please?
The last thing she needs now is
a family drama at her bedside.
Anna.
Can I see Aidan now?
Yeah, you can see him now.
We've got a wheelchair
coming down, okay?
Can we make some space in here?
Sure. We're just going.
See you later, darling.
Do you think he'll be ready
for a wedding, though?
Surely he'll still be eating
through a tube in six weeks.
What wedding?
They're engaged.
Who? Aidan and Anna.
What? Ah. Come on.
Now is not the time for one
of your coordinated pranks.
Is this like the time you
all pretended that Friday
was a Saturday to
get off? No, Dad.
They got engaged at the weekend.
Well, why didn't
she say something?
Wasn't the right time.
That's for sure.
Mum, while we're on the topic
of shocking family news,
we've decided we're going to
try and get Rachel into rehab.
Rehab?
Please. I don't
want any more news.
Are things that bad?
They're pretty bad.
The doctor suggested it.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Is she an alcoholic?
I'd say that's the least of it.
Helen. Jesus.
I've been out with
Rachel loads of times,
and I drink way more than her.
Maggie, d'ya wanna see if
there's a bed for Claire, too?
There's room in the
car, so Helen.
This just all seems
a bit dramatic.
So the plan is that Helen
and I will bring her.
And, em And you and I
will stay here with Anna.
I just wanted you
to know the plan.
The plan that everybody
knew about except me.
Yeah?
Thanks a lot.
Well, I didn't know the plan.
Aidan?
Aidan?
Can you hear me?
Hey.
How bad is it?
Em
Nothing one of your makeup
brands couldn't fix, huh?
I think we're going to need
something more than concealer.
Mm
Will you still marry
me if I'm deformed?
You're not deformed.
You didn't answer.
Keep talking to me.
Tell me, what was your
favourite day with me?
Okay.
Probably the night you and Luke
tried to move the
Phil Lynott statue.
No, actually, it was
the day that we fought
in Stephen's Green about
what we'd call our kids.
What was it?
No, what was the
name that you said?
Cody. Cody.
Oh, my God. It was Cody.
As if I'd call my child Cody.
Cody from Blackrock.
It's going to be Ronan, I think.
Yeah Aidan? Deal?
Say it.
You have to say the name
for it to be a deal.
It's going to be Ronan
Will we be able to
dance at our wedding?
Anna, I need you to understand
how serious Aidan's injuries are.
I do.
Hey.
How are you feeling?
Grand.
Rachel, Anna said that
last night you rang her.
You wanted to go to
that rehab place.
Well
wanted is a strong word.
Em
Last night, I thought it might
be good for me, but like,
I can't leave Anna like this.
We were all here for Anna.
Rach, I think that was a really
wise thought that you had.
Not you too.
Are you joking?
So I rang this place today.
It's called the Cloisters.
And I spoke to this
really lovely woman.
She's so lovely.
And they have a bed for you.
And dad can bring
you there today.
What the fuck?
Why is there a rush?
I don't need to go
to rehab, Margaret.
Rachel, you're wearing the
clothes that you've been
wearing since Saturday.
You smell.
Like, this is not
normal behaviour.
Are you happy like this?
Why don't you just
go and try it?
And, like, if you need to
come home, you can come home.
I need to talk to Anna first.
Yeah. Yeah, sure.
Of course you can.
How's he doing?
Is he okay?
Yeah.
He spoke to me.
That's positive.
Rach, did you find out?
You can't turn right.
You can.
You can turn right
onto Harcourt Street.
It's okay.
You both just need to focus
on getting better, okay?
Okay. Sleep.
Yeah.
Sleep is really good. Yeah.
Thank you. I think I'm
going to sleep here.
Okay.
Thank you for doing that.
I love you.
I love you.
Okay, get some sleep. Yeah.
Thank you.

I'd call you my baby
But it'd cause alarm
Call you my angel
But you've caused some harm
Did you tell Luke
where you were going?
I thought he'd want to be
the one to drop you off.
Yeah, he offered
to give me a lift,
but I didn't want
to put him out.
Helen, this is a two-way road.
Dad, you're making me nervous.
He's making you nervous.
How'd you not see there was
another car coming, Helen?
I'm not used to driving
in the city, Rachel.
God, like, could you not go to rehab
somewhere on the DART line, no?
Can we just concentrate
on the road, please?
No, Helen, because there's going
to be high-profile people there.
They don't want to
get the DART to rehab.
How much money do you think
I'd make if I sold pictures
of famous addicts to the papers?
Helen!
Eyes on the road. Fine.
Wonder where he went?
I keep on running, planning

Woo! Ooh, woo, oh. ♪
This is class.
Looks like somewhere Ozzy
Osborne would have stayed.
Jesus.
Does that have to look
so much like an asylum?
Hi. Hi.
Hiya. Hi.
I'm I'm Jack Walsh.
This is my daughter,
Rachel, and that's Helen,
but you could ignore
her. Everyone else does.
Rachel we rang.
Margaret spoke to someone.
Rachel's had a bit of
trouble with drugs.
Yeah, of course. We
were expecting you.
I'm just going to let Josephine
know that you're here.
We have a couple of
different counselling groups,
and Rachel's in hers. Okay.
Right. Thank you. No problem.
It'll be okay.
You just focus on getting
better while you're here.
Don't be worrying about anyone
or anything else except yourself.
I'm sure she manages that.
Excuse me?
I'm just saying,
I'm sure you manage.
I believe in your ability
to prioritise yourself.
Sorry to interrupt.
Rachel, Josephine is
ready for your assessment.
Okay.
Go on. Can you just
mind my bag, please?
Yeah, of course.
Thanks. You're alright.
Come on.
It's your mother.
Hi.
She's fine. She'll be fine.
Jesus, when I hear that back and
I'm relaying it to you, it does.
It does sound a bit addicty.
I get that, but
like, out of context,
it sounds like a bit much, but
really, actually everyone does it.
It's actually quite
mild. You know?
But yeah, that's it, really.
I don't know what else
you want me to say.
You use the word mild.
But from what you described,
the hospital report,
and what your sister told me,
I think you have a chronic
drug abuse problem.
Well, now
Well, it's a bit dramatic.
Nobody's forcing you
to be here, Rachel.
Well, I'm here now, am I?
You are.
You're going to have to
hand over your phone.
Yeah.
No problem. Here you go.
And we'll have to
search your bags.
That okay?
Yeah.
Em, sorry, I'm actually
bursting for the toilet.
Could I just
Yeah.
It's across the hall.
Okay.
Two seconds.
Okay
Hello, love.
There's some food there.
Not very healthy for a hospital.
Mum, give her a minute. The
chairs are so uncomfortable.
Anna.
Hiya, love. How are you doing?
Why am I back here?
Who brought me back here?
I wanna be with Aidan.
I know.
Hey, Anna. How are you today?
Do you think Aidan
will talk more today?
Patients always wish I was a
psychic as well as a doctor.
I went to a psychic once.
He said I would marry
a man in uniform.
Jesus wept.
It might be a good idea to
take a break, Mrs Walsh.
I haven't had a
break since the '80s.
Well, you can rest knowing that
we're looking after Anna, at least.
Yeah, what about the other four?
All physically healthy
and emotionally unstable,
and I breastfed.
We're going to bring you down for
a repeat chest X-ray shortly, okay?
Thank you. Thank you.
I'm coming in.
Go home, Mum. Got it.
You sure?
Yeah.
Okay.
Bye, love.
Talk to you later.
I just might have to nip out
later for a client consultation
with a communion mum. It's okay.
He really is a ride,
you know? Claire.
Doctors.
Something about their hands.
You could shoot a horror
film in this place.
I'm not even joking.
There is literally a taxidermied
eagle in a glass case.
It is definitely not giving spa.
More like, we own horses.
And if you were an American,
we would have owned people,
if you know what I mean.
I don't know how the fuck
they clean this place.
If they tighten up immigration
laws, hey are goosed.
Helen? Oh.
I was just coming
2to say goodbye.
You'll see them on Sunday.
Anyone can visit on Sunday.
Probably won't be me.
But Luke, maybe? Luke?
Oh, he's my boyfriend.
Possibly ex.
Helen! What?
We'll send him a questionnaire.
Let's introduce you
to your roommate.
Roommate? Okay.
I'll give you a minute.
Right, so I'll be off. Wait.
What? You don't even
get your own room?
Someone needs to call
this place out on TikTok.
Rachel, don't pretend like you
didn't live in a moist hell hole
for three months because it was
close to your favourite nightclub.
Anyway, someone will be
in to see you on Sunday.
Good luck.
You can do this. No.
Say a prayer for me. A prayer?
Do you know who I am? Or
light a candle or a cigarette.
I don't know. Something.
Meet your roommate, Jackie.
I'll leave you in to it.
Hi.
There's some closet
space in there.
Okay. Are you married, Rachel?
No.
I could tell.
Are you?
Several times.
For my sins.
For now, it's Dermot.
Can't believe he put
me in this place.
And you're in for
alcoholism? Me?
Please, an alcoholic?
Might have a few gin and
tonics with the girls.
Let my hair down.
So why is it Dermot to
put you in here then?
Well, don't ask me, Rachel. Do
I look like an alcoholic to you?
Do I look like a
drug addict to you?
I wouldn't know.
And then there's my brother who's
always at me about my drinking.
He's such a pain in the ass.
I wish I had sisters.
Do you have sisters?
I always wanted to, you know,
have that moment where we
brush each other's hair
and give each other
Wait, you go put some music on.
Come quickly. I will,
but you better not.
What are you at?
I'm looking for a condom.
Boys are so disorganised.
Here more. Quick.
Do I look okay?
Yeah.
Yeah, but would you
want to ride me?
Yeah.
Yoink.
Where's your sleepers? Don't
do that. Put that back.
You never know when you might
need an emergency valium.
There's only one. It's
fine. You take it.
No, here, don't risk it.
But look, I've got work
at 9, which means
I just go home, get dressed,
we need to leave
here at, Rachel.
Okay?
Okay. I'll do my best.
How's your guy?
Luke? No.
No.
Yours is Luke, and mine is Joe.
And yeah, he's really nice,
but I only got in a taxi
because you were shit-faced.
You'd have sex with a
stranger just for me?
Well, I can't now,
anyway. Safety valve.
Rachel, that's gross.
Okay, come on. I need to pee.
Go, go, go, go,
go, hurry up. Go!
Your colour analysis, so
you remember? Is autumnal.
So this bright will really bring out
your eyes. Oh, God. That's gorgeous.
And then also, I kinda
went out on a limb
and I found this
little slinky number.
You know? Sorry, let me give
you a good angle on that.
Well, I just think
Oh my God, that's
Yeah, I'm going to send you a
time and it's going to be great.
You're an angel. Okay,
goodbye, my love.
Have a good weekend.
Hi.
Ms Walsh.
Sorry, I couldn't find
anywhere quiet in there,
but I couldn't lose this client.
She's new money, loads of
cash, no style to go with it.
She's lucky to have
such a skilled
Stylist. A fashion
doctor, you might say.
They didn't have that medical
subspecialty, where I trained.
Well, emergencies look
different to everyone, I guess.
Well, I just wanted you to
know you're in a disabled spot.
Oh, sorry. Sorry.
I'll move.
Everyone, this is Rachel.
She's joining us today.
Hi, Rachel.
I'll see you shortly. I'm Neil.
Hello, Neil.
What are you in for?
Drugs. Anything else?
No.
What about yourself?
Gambling and alcohol.
Cross-addicted.
Food.
Alcohol.
There you go, Rachel.
Oh, thank you.
I'm actually a vegetarian.
And?
And I don't eat meat.
If you're not eating,
Rachel, I'll have it.
Yeah, please. Go on.
Eh No, he cannot.
I'm sorry, Rachel.
It's our policy not to do
special food for anyone.
Yeah, but
The thing is, though, it's not
special because I'm vegetarian.
Listen, I know that
you're concerned about
the anorexics and bulemics-
Rachel, do you see yourself
correctly in the mirror?
You're very thin.
Wow.
Thank you.
Sorry, you have gorgeous
hair, by the way.
Sorry, I just can't do it.
Just against my
beliefs, you know.
One of the lads in the office
were saying there's this news show
about cult or something. I'll
text them and get the name of it.
Or we could watch a movie.
Might finish that
bottle of wine?
Get cosy.
Oh, yeah.
Just want to eat and go to bed.
Oh.
This is about Rachel
going to rehab?
No. I got my period.
Oh.
What's this?
Oh, the acupuncture said I
need to create a more inviting
environment in my womb.
Pfft. A bag of leaves?
The Chinese herbs,
Paul, don't be a racist.
I don't think it's racist
to question a doctor
to have given you a
Ziploc bag of leaves
that she could have got from
the drain pipe in her garden.
Do you even want
this to work, Paul?
I'm trying my best.
I'm spending all this
money, and you're just here
criticising me and making jokes.
I'm not criticising
you. I'm just
I think we're just putting too
much pressure on ourselves.
Relax.
Breathe.
Breathe?
Hm.
La-la.
Mm.
Fuck.
This proposal to
take the constituency
from a 5A to a 4C
Morning, dad.
Sunshine, how are you?
D'You know, you're the
only one that doesn't
give me blood pressure
when I see you coming.
You alright, love?
Will I get your mother? No.
God, no. I'm fine.
I'm actually fine. It's
just a tough few days.
Will we go into the department?
It's a sacred place, you know?
Anything in there
stays in there.
There have been actual national
issues solved inside those walls.
Come on.
Come on.
I had no idea, though.
The doctor says that with my age
and how long we've been trying,
we probably need to do IVF,
but I don't have
10 grand to just
drop at the slight
chance of having a baby.
Do you know what Albert Reynolds
said to me once before the budget?
Dad, please.
Please don't quote
Irish history at me.
You know I don't follow
all the presidents.
Presidents? He
was our Taoiseach.
Jesus, Mary So?
Do you know how shameful it is
to me that none of you showed
the slightest interest?
I see the polling
cards coming in.
They'd get more attention
if they were pizza menus.
If you have some hope with
Helen. She's got something.
Yeah, there's only
college socialism in her.
Here.
What is this? It's
my rainy day fund.
I'm going to transfer it to you.
You take what you
need out of it.
I don't want you worrying
about money for IVF.
But dad is
Margaret, I cannot
think of anyone
more deserving to be
a mother than you.
Does mum know you have this?
Indeed, she does not.
Well, it'd be long gone.
Don't you be telling her.
Are you sure? I'm certain.
Oh, Dad.
I love you.
Dad, do you know how dangerous it
is to have all of your passwords
and your account details
written down like this?
Sure how else would I remember?
How are you getting on
with all these head cases?
There's so many
head cases, Neil.
Well, I'm in the hot seat today.
I didn't see it mass earlier.
No.
Definitely didn't.
Say what you want, but you
really should give it a try.
Th8anks for coming in, Eimear.
Now, you might start by
telling us about some of Neil's
addictive behaviour.
He hardly ever drank.
Was he ever unfaithful?
No.
Did he ever disappear
for days at a time?
No.
Are you afraid of
your husband, Eimear?
No.
Eimear, I'm just going to read
from the questionnaire that you
filled out when
Neil first came in.
Josephine, can you just take no
for for an answer for fuck's sake.
Please don't read
it. It's not true.
So it's not true that Neil broke
your nose on two occasions.
Your jaw fractured your arm
and that your daughter
had to get still-Stop.
Please.
It's not true.
Neil, I'm sorry.
Neil?
She's lying.
She's lying.
Are you Eimear?
Yes.
Still protecting him.
You'd rather put him ahead of
yourself, ahead of your children?
No.
What's that, Eimear?
No.
So it is true, isn't it?
I've got the Garda reports and
the hospital notes to back it up.
It's true, isn't it?
Why did you abuse
your wife, Neil?
It's not my fault.
She knows exactly how to push
my buttons when I've had a few.
Rachel?
She drove me to it.
Okay, we'll take you
short break here.
Hi, this is Anna.
Please leave a message.
Hey, Anna, listen, they
took my phone, okay?
I need you to come to
visit hours next Sunday
and get some zimmos off Dan.
Do you still have any Valium?
Because I'm not safe,
okay? And I need some
I was just calling my sister.
Okay.
You can't keep me here.
I'm not safe.
Your parents reckon you're
not safe outside of here.
Well, that's bullshit.
Well, if I call any of them,
they'll come and get
me straight away.
I want to leave.
I want to retire at 50.
Well, you're way older
than 50. Exactly.
Okay, look.
You seem like a really
smart lady. I can see that.
But my family overreacted.
I'm only here to
please my parents.
I shouldn't be here.
This is just one really
big, expensive mistake.
If you leave now, it could be
the last decision you ever make.
You can't keep me here.
I'll run away. I'll escape.
There's nothing stopping me from
walking out the gate right now.
You're right. There's
nothing stopping you except
that little voice inside you
that knows you need help.
There is nothing
wrong with me, okay?
I shouldn't be here.
There are angry, evil
weirdos in here, okay?
Please, please just help me.
I'm trying to.
You're an addict.
Other people, apart from
me, agree and are concerned.
What other people?
When your sister
Margaret called us,
she outlined a
pretty grim picture.
Well, Maggie's a
fucking lick arse.
She's never done anything
exciting in her whole life.
Your relationships with
your family, with work,
with Luke, are being
damaged by your drug usage.
My drug usage?
What about his fucking
drug usage? Okay?
I shouldn't be here.
Everyone my age takes drugs.
It is normal.
It is not normal to
have stomach pumped
because you've taken a
life-threatening amount of drugs.
By accident.
Don't fucking tilt your
head at me like that.
Okay. If you need to
phone your family,
Go ahead.
I'll be outside.
Hello.
Luke.
Rachel?
How's Anna? How's Aidan?
Oh, I don't know.
Listen, they've sent
you a form, and look,
if you could just answer
the questions really nicely.
I mean, obviously
be honest, but kind.
Rachel, I'm not doing this.
You can't bully me into lying.
Lying?
Well, I'm sorry if it's a lie
to say that I'm a nice person.
I'm going to answer it honestly.
So I can help you get better.
Are you seriously going
to rat me out, Luke?
You are some man to
talk about drugs.
You and your pathetic
double denim wearing friends
and your bags on a Sunday.
Okay, you're going
to trap me here.
You know that when my
sister's actually in hospital
and actually needs me,
but they're going
to keep me here
because you're going to
make me sound like a junkie.
How did mum take it?
You know, I think
Like, by the time it comes
around, she'll be open to it.
It's in a month.
Anna.
Anna, do you think that he's going
to be up for a wedding in a month?
What are you saying?
Nothing.
Just like, you know, you might
have to push it back a bit.
Claire is going to want everyone
up on their feet for rock the boat.
He's going to have
to be 100 percent.
Yeah, Rock the

You have no idea what
you're in for, Aido.
I'm going to pop out, okay? Mm.
I'll give you some
time with him.
Give me a shout when you want
me to bring you back down, okay?
Yeah, thanks, Mags.
You know what I
was thinking there.
You now have the perfect excuse to
miss the family lunch this weekend.
I think even Mary Walsh would
let you off in this state.
For one week, anyway.

I have never been more sure.
Mum and dad don't even

We could barely detect a

We are advising some

Rehab?

I think a bit of time away at

That's weird. Oh,

I could stitch her

For God's sake, Rachel,
will you sit down?
Will you stop foostering?
How's Aidan? He was in
ICU when we got here.
We don't know much more.
They won't talk to us.
GDPR. ICU is never a good sign.
GDPR? Yeah.
I'll get round that.
You're going to flirt your

At least I can flirt.
It's hard to do when you can't even

Excuse me for being comfortable

Hey.
Hi. Can I help you?
Hopefully.
God, how are you so efficient

I feel like a zombie.
Get used to the night shifts.

We're all just really worried.
Okay, let me check on her.
I'll come back and get

Okay? Okay.
Mm.
Does anyone have
any painkillers?
Margaret, throw me

Claire could giggle a drip

Oh, no. No.

Yeah, no. Data protection

Anyone else want a coffee?
Falling asleep.
We turned right onto
Harcourt Street.
You can turn right
onto Harcourt Street
from Montague Street, can't you?
I told him to turn right.
I thought you could turn right.
Did they change it?
Eh onto Harcourt Street.
Dad. Did they change it?
I don't know.
You have to know.
Can someone find out, please?
Helen, you're on your phone.
Please find out.
Maybe you can, Anna.
There's loads of
diversions around there.
Maybe you can.
I don't want maybe.
Can someone find out if you can
turn right on Harcourt Street
or get out of my room?
Anna love, why don't you just
lie there and have a rest?
Get out.
Everything okay?
All fine, doctor.
She's just upset
about roadworks.
No, I want them out of my room.
Okay, we need to let Anna rest.
Why is it so hard to
get definitive map?
Council's website is useless.
Guys, you do realise
she doesn't actually care
about the road, yeah?
Well, what else are we
supposed to do, Helen?
For God's sake, we can at
least give her some comfort.
You wouldn't try a hug, no?
If they just brought her down to
Aidan, I'm sure she'd calm down.
I better get back to Kate.
Garv will be waiting
at the door for me.
You go, love. We'll
ring in the morning.
Here, I'll walk you out.
I'm going to go back into Anna.
She might need me.
Yeah, I'd say you're
exactly what she needs.
Hi. Oh.
I thought you were the porter.
Why won't they bring me to him?
I tried to steal you a
wheelchair to bring you down,
but the guy in it was pissed.
He'll be fine.
If he sees me, I'll be fine.
But I told him to
turn right, Rach.
I think you can turn right from
Montague Street, can't you?
You definitely can, I think.
I need to know if I
did this. No, no, no.
It's okay. It's okay.
Yeah.
I'm going to find
out, okay? I promise.
You promise?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank you.
I'm gonna close my eyes I think.
Okay.
Will you give me a call when
you speak to the doctor again?
Yeah, of course.
He's probably married and just
not wearing a ring for hygiene,
but I got my hopes ups.
I thought you meant a
call about Anna and Aidan.
Oh no, yeah, that too. Sorry.
You're unbelievable.
Do you fancy him?
Or do you just hope
that he fancies you?
It's been so long I don't
know the difference.
Goodbye.
Love you.
I've been looking for you.
Lucky me.
Will you drive me into town?
Not without a fully
licenced driver.
Shit. Yeah. Okay.
Okay, it's fine. I'll walk.
You just wiggled
your way towards me.
Not fit to walk
anywhere. Watch me.
If you're going to follow me,
would you walk beside me?
You're putting me on edge.
Just keeping an eye on you.
So why are you smoking?
It's a mindfulness
breathing technique.
Yeah, tar is great
for the mind, alright?
Everyone's annoyed
at me for no reason.
No, I think that they're annoyed
that you basically nearly died
of an overdose last night,
and now, that you're high again.
But it wasn't an overdose.
Tell that to your heart.
How do I get them to
stop being annoyed?
The plan was that you'd go
to that fancy rehab place.
What happened to that plan?
It's just so dramatic,
Helen. Rehab?!
In my 20s
I'm not Amy Winehouse.
Fair.
And it would be fucking lousy
to waste dad's pension on rehab.
Could you not just like,
move somewhere boring where
there's no nightclubs and no drugs
and just, I don't know,
have some self-control?
Like, Longford or somewhere?
I don't know, Helen.
I think I'd rather go to
rehab and go to Longford.
I always forget,
you're gas, Helen.
And then we hang out
alone, and I remember.
We never hang out
alone. Well, we should.
If you weren't so snarky all
the time, we'd be great company.
You're so wise.
How's that?
From watching you all mess
everything up all the time.
You can't turn right.
No, you can't. Can you? No.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Oh, there you are.
It's like the third secret of
Fatima trying to figure out
where the pair of you had gone.
And your father's gone
looking for you as well.
We just went for a walk, to
clear the head. Relax, mum.
There's enough going on
without you two disappearing.
Alright, Maggie,
no one asked you.
Rachel.
Sorry. It's just
my head is banging.
Okay, can we just give
Anna some peace, please?
The last thing she needs now is
a family drama at her bedside.
Anna.
Can I see Aidan now?
Yeah, you can see him now.
We've got a wheelchair
coming down, okay?
Can we make some space in here?
Sure. We're just going.
See you later, darling.
Do you think he'll be ready
for a wedding, though?
Surely he'll still be eating
through a tube in six weeks.
What wedding?
They're engaged.
Who? Aidan and Anna.
What? Ah. Come on.
Now is not the time for one
of your coordinated pranks.
Is this like the time you
all pretended that Friday
was a Saturday to
get off? No, Dad.
They got engaged at the weekend.
Well, why didn't
she say something?
Wasn't the right time.
That's for sure.
Mum, while we're on the topic
of shocking family news,
we've decided we're going to
try and get Rachel into rehab.
Rehab?
Please. I don't
want any more news.
Are things that bad?
They're pretty bad.
The doctor suggested it.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Is she an alcoholic?
I'd say that's the least of it.
Helen. Jesus.
I've been out with
Rachel loads of times,
and I drink way more than her.
Maggie, d'ya wanna see if
there's a bed for Claire, too?
There's room in the
car, so Helen.
This just all seems
a bit dramatic.
So the plan is that Helen
and I will bring her.
And, em And you and I
will stay here with Anna.
I just wanted you
to know the plan.
The plan that everybody
knew about except me.
Yeah?
Thanks a lot.
Well, I didn't know the plan.
Aidan?
Aidan?
Can you hear me?
Hey.
How bad is it?
Em
Nothing one of your makeup
brands couldn't fix, huh?
I think we're going to need
something more than concealer.
Mm
Will you still marry
me if I'm deformed?
You're not deformed.
You didn't answer.
Keep talking to me.
Tell me, what was your
favourite day with me?
Okay.
Probably the night you and Luke
tried to move the
Phil Lynott statue.
No, actually, it was
the day that we fought
in Stephen's Green about
what we'd call our kids.
What was it?
No, what was the
name that you said?
Cody. Cody.
Oh, my God. It was Cody.
As if I'd call my child Cody.
Cody from Blackrock.
It's going to be Ronan, I think.
Yeah Aidan? Deal?
Say it.
You have to say the name
for it to be a deal.
It's going to be Ronan
Will we be able to
dance at our wedding?
Anna, I need you to understand
how serious Aidan's injuries are.
I do.
Hey.
How are you feeling?
Grand.
Rachel, Anna said that
last night you rang her.
You wanted to go to
that rehab place.
Well
wanted is a strong word.
Em
Last night, I thought it might
be good for me, but like,
I can't leave Anna like this.
We were all here for Anna.
Rach, I think that was a really
wise thought that you had.
Not you too.
Are you joking?
So I rang this place today.
It's called the Cloisters.
And I spoke to this
really lovely woman.
She's so lovely.
And they have a bed for you.
And dad can bring
you there today.
What the fuck?
Why is there a rush?
I don't need to go
to rehab, Margaret.
Rachel, you're wearing the
clothes that you've been
wearing since Saturday.
You smell.
Like, this is not
normal behaviour.
Are you happy like this?
Why don't you just
go and try it?
And, like, if you need to
come home, you can come home.
I need to talk to Anna first.
Yeah. Yeah, sure.
Of course you can.
How's he doing?
Is he okay?
Yeah.
He spoke to me.
That's positive.
Rach, did you find out?
You can't turn right.
You can.
You can turn right
onto Harcourt Street.
It's okay.
You both just need to focus
on getting better, okay?
Okay. Sleep.
Yeah.
Sleep is really good. Yeah.
Thank you. I think I'm
going to sleep here.
Okay.
Thank you for doing that.
I love you.
I love you.
Okay, get some sleep. Yeah.

Food.
Alcohol.
There you go, Rachel.
Oh, thank you.
I'm actually a vegetarian.
And?
And I don't eat meat.
If you're not eating,
Rachel, I'll have it.
Yeah, please. Go on.
Eh No, he cannot.
I'm sorry, Rachel.
It's our policy not to do
special food for anyone.
Yeah, but
The thing is, though, it's not
special because I'm vegetarian.
Listen, I know that
you're concerned about
the anorexics and bulemics-
Rachel, do you see yourself
correctly in the mirror?
You're very thin.
Wow.
Thank you.
Sorry, you have gorgeous
hair, by the way.
Sorry, I just can't do it.
Just against my
beliefs, you know.
One of the lads in the office
were saying there's this news show
about cult or something. I'll
text them and get the name of it.
Or we could watch a movie.
Might finish that
bottle of wine?
Get cosy.
Oh, yeah.
Just want to eat and go to bed.
Oh.
This is about Rachel
going to rehab?
No. I got my period.
Oh.
What's this?
Oh, the acupuncture said I
need to create a more inviting
environment in my womb.
Pfft. A bag of leaves?
The Chinese herbs,
Paul, don't be a racist.
I don't think it's racist
to question a doctor
to have given you a
Ziploc bag of leaves
that she could have got from
the drain pipe in her garden.
Do you even want
this to work, Paul?
I'm trying my best.
I'm spending all this
money, and you're just here
criticising me and making jokes.
I'm not criticising
you. I'm just
I think we're just putting too
much pressure on ourselves.
Relax.
Breathe.
Breathe?
Hm.
La-la.
Mm.
Fuck.
This proposal to
take the constituency
from a 5A to a 4C
Morning, dad.
Sunshine, how are you?
D'You know, you're the
only one that doesn't
give me blood pressure
when I see you coming.
You alright, love?
Will I get your mother? No.
God, no. I'm fine.
I'm actually fine. It's
just a tough few days.
Will we go into the department?
It's a sacred place, you know?
Anything in there
stays in there.
There have been actual national
issues solved inside those walls.
Come on.
Come on.
I had no idea, though.
The doctor says that with my age
and how long we've been trying,
we probably need to do IVF,
but I don't have
10 grand to just
drop at the slight
chance of having a baby.
Do you know what Albert Reynolds
said to me once before the budget?
Dad, please.
Please don't quote
Irish history at me.
You know I don't follow
all the presidents.
Presidents? He
was our Taoiseach.
Jesus, Mary So?
Do you know how shameful it is
to me that none of you showed
the slightest interest?
I see the polling
cards coming in.
They'd get more attention
if they were pizza menus.
If you have some hope with
Helen. She's got something.
Yeah, there's only
college socialism in her.
Here.
What is this? It's
my rainy day fund.
I'm going to transfer it to you.
You take what you
need out of it.
I don't want you worrying
about money for IVF.
But dad is
Margaret, I cannot
think of anyone
more deserving to be
a mother than you.
Does mum know you have this?
Indeed, she does not.
Well, it'd be long gone.
Don't you be telling her.
Are you sure? I'm certain.
Oh, Dad.
I love you.
Dad, do you know how dangerous it
is to have all of your passwords
and your account details
written down like this?
Sure how else would I remember?
How are you getting on
with all these head cases?
There's so many
head cases, Neil.
Well, I'm in the hot seat today.
I didn't see it mass earlier.
No.
Definitely didn't.
Say what you want, but you
really should give it a try.
Th8anks for coming in, Eimear.
Now, you might start by
telling us about some of Neil's
addictive behaviour.
He hardly ever drank.
Was he ever unfaithful?
No.
Did he ever disappear
for days at a time?
No.
Are you afraid of
your husband, Eimear?
No.
Eimear, I'm just going to read
from the questionnaire that you
filled out when
Neil first came in.
Josephine, can you just take no
for for an answer for fuck's sake.
Please don't read
it. It's not true.
So it's not true that Neil broke
your nose on two occasions.
Your jaw fractured your arm
and that your daughter
had to get still-Stop.
Please.
It's not true.
Neil, I'm sorry.
Neil?
She's lying.
She's lying.
Are you Eimear?
Yes.
Still protecting him.
You'd rather put him ahead of
yourself, ahead of your children?
No.
What's that, Eimear?
No.
So it is true, isn't it?
I've got the Garda reports and
the hospital notes to back it up.
It's true, isn't it?
Why did you abuse
your wife, Neil?
It's not my fault.
She knows exactly how to push
my buttons when I've had a few.
Rachel?
She drove me to it.
Okay, we'll take you
short break here.
Hi, this is Anna.
Please leave a message.
Hey, Anna, listen, they
took my phone, okay?
I need you to come to
visit hours next Sunday
and get some zimmos off Dan.
Do you still have any Valium?
Because I'm not safe,
okay? And I need some
I was just calling my sister.
Okay.
You can't keep me here.
I'm not safe.
Your parents reckon you're
not safe outside of here.
Well, that's bullshit.
Well, if I call any of them,
they'll come and get
me straight away.
I want to leave.
I want to retire at 50.
Well, you're way older
than 50. Exactly.
Okay, look.
You seem like a really
smart lady. I can see that.
But my family overreacted.
I'm only here to
please my parents.
I shouldn't be here.
This is just one really
big, expensive mistake.
If you leave now, it could be
the last decision you ever make.
You can't keep me here.
I'll run away. I'll escape.
There's nothing stopping me from
walking out the gate right now.
You're right. There's
nothing stopping you except
that little voice inside you
that knows you need help.
There is nothing
wrong with me, okay?
I shouldn't be here.
There are angry, evil
weirdos in here, okay?
Please, please just help me.
I'm trying to.
You're an addict.
Other people, apart from
me, agree and are concerned.
What other people?
When your sister
Margaret called us,
she outlined a
pretty grim picture.
Well, Maggie's a
fucking lick arse.
She's never done anything
exciting in her whole life.
Your relationships with
your family, with work,
with Luke, are being
damaged by your drug usage.
My drug usage?
What about his fucking
drug usage? Okay?
I shouldn't be here.
Everyone my age takes drugs.
It is normal.
It is not normal to
have stomach pumped
because you've taken a
life-threatening amount of drugs.
By accident.
Don't fucking tilt your
head at me like that.
Okay. If you need to
phone your family,
Go ahead.
I'll be outside.
Hello.
Luke.
Rachel?
How's Anna? How's Aidan?
Oh, I don't know.
Listen, they've sent
you a form, and look,
if you could just answer
the questions really nicely.
I mean, obviously
be honest, but kind.
Rachel, I'm not doing this.
You can't bully me into lying.
Lying?
Well, I'm sorry if it's a lie
to say that I'm a nice person.
I'm going to answer it honestly.
So I can help you get better.
Are you seriously going
to rat me out, Luke?
You are some man to
talk about drugs.
You and your pathetic
double denim wearing friends
and your bags on a Sunday.
Okay, you're going
to trap me here.
You know that when my
sister's actually in hospital
and actually needs me,
but they're going
to keep me here
because you're going to
make me sound like a junkie.
How did mum take it?
You know, I think
Like, by the time it comes
around, she'll be open to it.
It's in a month.
Anna.
Anna, do you think that he's going
to be up for a wedding in a month?
What are you saying?
Nothing.
Just like, you know, you might
have to push it back a bit.
Claire is going to want everyone
up on their feet for rock the boat.
He's going to have
to be 100 percent.
Yeah, Rock the
Boat. Christ, yeah.
You have no idea what
you're in for, Aido.
I'm going to pop out, okay? Mm.
I'll give you some
time with him.
Give me a shout when you want
me to bring you back down, okay?
Yeah, thanks, Mags.
You know what I
was thinking there.
You now have the perfect excuse to
miss the family lunch this weekend.
I think even Mary Walsh would
let you off in this state.
For one week, anyway.
Get a crash cart.
To rock the boat,
don't rock the boat, baby
Don't push the boat over
Don't rock the boat, baby
Rock the boat
