Any of Dessie's sheep missing?
Dunno. I tried to count them,
but I kept falling asleep.
No... None were stolen.
So why would somebody just open the gate and let them out?
A prank, maybe?
Papa Delta 2-2 from Uniform.
Uniform, Uniform send over.
ATM theft reported on Mill Road.
We're on our way. Over.
Cool.
Port Devine's never had an ATM theft before.
It's not exactly the quiet life you were hoping for.
After a year undercover, an ATM theft suits me fine.
Anyway,
my move here was more about the company.
That was some craic we had last night. Yeah.
Did you stay up and finish the bottle? Unfortunately.
Ooh. Do you not need sleep?
I do. I just can't seem to get any, at the minute.
Maybe it's the new bed?
Or maybe it's because it's too big and empty
and Siobhan's in the next room?
Yeah, ha, ha.
Right, Marlene, where are we at?
So the thieves used a digger to steal a cash machine,
early hours of this morning.
It was seen heading up the Mill Road.
Morning, team.
Here we go one for you, one for you.
Cheers, mate.
And I guessed you'd take yours strong and black.
Actually, I'm a cappuccino man with extra sprinkles.
Only messing, black's dead on!
I caught a gang doing rural ATM thefts a few years ago.
So this could be the same gang?
No...No, no, no, they're still serving time.
And I thought the sheep were going to be the highlight of my day.
The sheep? Yeah.
Someone let Dessie Brankin's flock out. We were on it before this.
That's the same tactics as the other gang.
Distract the local cops, then take the cashpoint.
It could be a copycat. Right, Marlene,
do you want to go and look for this digger?
Callum, have a ring around, see if anyone's missing one. Yeah.
You not ready for your appointment?
I am, two seconds.
Finn and Al were reminiscing till the wee hours.
How are you and Finn ever
going to get back together if Al is here playing gooseberry?
Concepta, please.
I'm anxious enough about this scan as it is.
You grab your coat. I'll sort this out.
We found the abandoned digger off Rock Road.
No sign of the suspects. Over.
Papa Delta 2-2, that's all received.
Here we go.
What's that?
Some sort of stone. It's flaky, like shale.
The tyre's full of them.
Might be able to tell us where this has been.
I'll call CSI, get it examined.
Hiya, Ma.
How are you and Siobhan ever going to make
a go of things if you're up till all hours drinking
with your mate like a pair of teenagers?
It was just one night, Ma. I promise.
My priority is Siobhan's health.
I just wish they'd give her the results today,
you know?
It's the waiting that's hard on her.
And on you, too.
OK?
Almost everyone I've spoken
to this morning has asked me if it's true that Marlene is gay.
Look, it's a small place. People are nosey.
Give it a week and they'll be gossiping about something else.
I just hope nobody's rude to her.
If they are, they've got me to answer to, all right?
Hey!
Any witnesses?
Constable McCarthy.
Some of the locals saw the digger,
but none of them got a look at the driver.
Right. Thanks.
The digger is a rental. It was leased to a Tom McGrade.
Do you know him?
Tom and Rosie McGrade are farmers.
They lost their eldest son two years ago in a motorbike accident.
They're neighbours of Dessie Brankin,
his sheep were the ones that were let loose this morning.
You know the McGrades, Marlene. Can you come with me to speak to them? Yeah.
Callum, I need all the CCTV you can get along
the road from Brankin's sheep to the ATM,
and then out Mill Road, all right?
Yeah. Straight away.
We were home all night, as usual. We didn't hear a thing.
If you're cold, we can go inside...
No. Er...Tom's not well.
Man flu.
And it's just you and your husband here, Mrs McGrade?
Aye. Farming wasn't
for our youngest. He's away to university.
When did you realise the digger was gone?
Not till Constable McCarthy called.
Has there been anybody suspicious hanging about recently?
Two young fellas came round a few days ago.
Saying they wanted to borrow the digger, but I said no.
What's the matter?
It's OK. You go back in. I-I'm dealing with it.
We were just notifying your wife that your digger had been found.
What do you mean found?
It was used in a theft this morning.
What was stolen?
The cash machine on Mill Road.
Rosie tells us you were at home all night?
Aye, that's right.
Well, if you can think of anything that might help us
with our enquires,
just give us a call and let us know.
We will. Thanks, officer.
It's not like Rosie not to invite us in.
You know,
people have been treating me differently since I came out.
I don't think it's anything to do with you.
Did you see how nervy yer man Tom was? AND no sign of man flu.
Yeah.
Callum, can you ring round neighbouring farms
and see if anybody's been asking to borrow
a digger these past few days? Will do. Oh,
and there's no CCTV footage of last night.
Someone hit every camera in the area with these.
It's a paint ball.
Like on those assault courses?
Paint-balling CCTV cameras, that's a new one on me.
They dropped that one. Cub found it in a pothole.
And whoever did it is a real marksman.
He hit every camera with one shot. Bull's-eye.
We need to find those lads who Rosie spoke to. Yeah.
I saw Barry earlier.
He's heartsore about your falling-out.
I'm upset about it too, Concepta.
He's in a huff
because you talked to me about the surrogacy and not him.
I said he should apologise, but he's that pig-headed.
I have apologised
100 times already. Enough is enough.
Callum, I just heard that
the digger used in that ATM theft belonged
to Tom McGrade. Is that right?
I'm afraid so.
I gave Tom a lift into town last night.
I think Marlene should hear this. Can you not handle it?
Sarge? What is it?
Barry gave Tom McGrade a lift into town last night.
Ask him what time. What time?
Tell her, around 22:00 hours.
Around 222:00 hours.
Well, where did he drop him off?
At the ATM on Mill Road.
At the ATM on...
Right, back to base, cub.
One's as stubborn as the other.
The pair of them need their heads knocking together.
The bank have confirmed that
that machine was being refilled tomorrow.
There was less than 20 grand in it.
This is sounding more and more like the work of amateurs.
I had a financial check done on the McGrades.
They owe a load of money to
the same bank whose ATM was stolen. That's some coincidence.
You can't really believe that a salt-of-the-earth couple like
the McGrades would be involved in this?
Desperate people can do crazy things.
And if they're daft enough to steal a cash machine
the day before it gets refilled,
would they be daft enough to bring it back to the farm?
Shall we, Marlene?
Yup.
I'm going to come with you.
Callum, stay here and man the phones.
Yes, Inspector.
Really, it wasn't necessary for you to come out here, Finn.
Six months ago, I would've known what was going on
with all these farmers. I feel like I've lost touch.
Tom. Please.
This way.
Tom. Please, please don't go.
Did you send for them?
No. I didn't, I didn't, honestly.
Liar. You want me locked up! No...No please.
Look, please, just come back inside... Get you away from me.
Just relax, Tom, all right?
Tom McGrade.
I'm arresting you for breach of the peace.
You don't have to say anything
but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned
something you later rely on in court.
Anything you do say may be given as evidence.
I'm sorry about the state of the place, Marlene.
We've so much to do on the farm, I've let things go.
What's going on, Rosie?
Well, you've seen my Tom with drink on him before?
Not like that, I haven't.
Where was he last night?
I've told you already. He was here.
We know he got a lift into town last night with Barry.
He's not been himself since our Cormac died.
He doesn't talk to me. Just sits there and drinks.
He's been drinking since you were here earlier.
Rosie says that Tom's been hitting the drink since Cormac died.
Losing a son like that. I'm not sure how I'd react.
You tackled him pretty hard boss, for a breach of the peace.
Finn used proportionate force given the circumstances.
No, Marlene's right. It was, erm, it was a bit heavy-handed.
Your man was out of control. We all saw him.
Tom McGrade says you can confirm that he was here last night?
Aye, he came in around ten o'clock. Drank too much,
passed out over there.
I felt sorry for him, so I let him sleep it off.
I drove him home around 2am.
Have you done something different with your hair, Nicole?
Yes. I'm glad someone noticed.
Huh?
Yeah, it really suits you.
Thank you.
Was there anybody hanging about the farm?
I didn't go up to the farm.
I dropped him at the bottom of the lane. He didn't want me waking them all up.
Them all? Aye, his, er
son and his girlfriend are staying with them.
I heard you were involved in that robbery last night.
Well, you heard wrong. I just gave Tom McGrade a lift,
that's all.
There was always a bit of a wild streak in the McGrades.
Now, I think they have enough
to contend with without you being so...
Gossipy? Backstabbing? Judgmental?
Without you being so judgmental.
You know what,
I'm not going to stick around here to be insulted.
Good day to yous, ladies.
I'm beginning to wonder who's having the hormone treatment
for surrogacy round here, him or Marlene.
Oh, she hasn't started taking the hormones yet.
She keeps putting it off.
Because of this fall out with him?
Yeah, I really hope they sort their differences soon.
It's messing up my plans.
Now that you've calmed down, we are releasing you.
But try and keep that temper under control, yeah?
Your wife's here for you.
You OK, love?
'Course I am. Come on, let's go home.
You didn't mention that your son
and his girlfriend were staying with you last night.
Who said that?
Tom told Clint Dunwoody.
So you WERE at the pub?
I just wanted to go out for
an hour without the Spanish Inquisition.
Your son and his girlfriend didn't fancy a pint?
They've been down a few times recently,
but not last night. Tom was confused.
OK. Thanks for clearing that up.
If we've any more questions, I'll be in touch.
Hey. What's the latest?
I've been reviewing
the footage of these cameras before they were disabled.
This is from yesterday afternoon.
Now, see this biker?
He hangs about the cash machine but doesn't use it.
Does he take his helmet off?
No, but I got the bike's reg.
It belongs to the McGrades' son, Jake.
Now, Tom says Jake
and his girlfriend were staying at the farm last night,
but Rosie says they weren't. Callum,
I need you to get everything you can find on Jake McGrade.
Jake? I just saw him go into a coffee shop up the street.
Well, let's go, then.
I've just realised,
Jake matches the description of the man Dessie saw by his field.
Really? Yeah.
We'd better see where he's going, then. Yeah.
Jake McGrade?
Yeah? Sorry,
I didn't realise it was us you were following.
Jake McGrade, you're under arrest for the theft of
the ATM on Mill Road. You do not have to say any... Dad? Taylor?
What are you doing here?
Why didn't you let me know you were in Port Devine?
I could ask you the same.
Are you working here now?
Yes. I transferred last week.
I've been leaving you a load of messages
but you haven't been calling me back.
Like you've been doing with me for the past year?
I was undercover, you know that.
So, how come the big city detective is slumming it
with these cultchie cops?
I believe the politically correct term is County Mounties, actually.
I'm not going back to uni.
What? Why?
I've been kicked out.
You, you're not joking? What happened?
We were having a peaceful demo when
a load of yobs turned up. A window got smashed.
Nothing to do with us, but we got the blame.
But you're going to appeal, right? Once you pay a fine,
make an apology, everything...
Apologise?! No way.
Can you tell us where you were last night, Jake?
Sure, no problem.
Er, I was in Belfast with my girlfriend. Taylor.
Your dad said the two
of you were staying at his house last night.
Er no, we went back to Belfast
to go to a club. Dad must be confused.
Did you use the ATM on Mill Road?
No.
You were caught on the CCTV standing in front of it.
Oh, er, yeah, I wanted to use it, but I forgot my card.
Jake, you should know that
a search is being carried out at your parents' house.
If any incriminating evidence is found,
they will be arrested for assisting an offender.
Where were you last night?
I was with Jake.
We went to a club and then back to his halls.
He's very alpha, isn't he?
Were you with Jake when he parked at the ATM on Mill Road yesterday?
No, he dropped me off in town.
Hang on.
You think we robbed that ATM?
We just need to know where you both were yesterday.
If I'm arrested,
I hope you're the one who slaps the cuffs on me.
Come on now, Taylor.
You're a cop's daughter, you should know better.
We're done here.
Do you want to meet up for dinner later?
I'll have to check my diary.
I might be busy robbing another bank.
Hi, Finn. Taylor.
Away on.
She's hard work but she has me wrapped around her wee finger.
I hear you.
So listen, could Jake have done this or not?
His brother, I would've believed,
but no, not this lad. He's too soft.
Depends how desperate he was.
If this is a copycat, like Al said, how would Jake know
the details of the previous ATM thefts?
But we have CCTV footage of him checking the cash machine.
But Jake says he forgot his card
and there's no physical evidence to place him at
the scene. We're going to have to let him go.
Forensics found no DNA or fingerprints on the digger,
but the stones in the tyres are schist.
We really need to get a swear jar in here.
Schist is a type of stone.
Do you remember that land up on Hill Road,
the McGrades sold it to that property developer?
The flats everyone objected to?
Exactly, and no sooner had they started work,
but they were shut down.
I'm pretty sure those foundations were refilled with Schist.
That's about half
a mile from where you found the digger.
Right, Callum, let's go.
That's Jake McGrade's bike.
Police.
Stop what you're doing.
Drop the hammer and turn around slowly.
I did it. I stole the cash machine.
Not by yourself.
I met some men in a pub. I paid them to help me.
And who are these men, Rosie?
I don't know. I never asked their names.
Was your son involved?
No, no, he wasn't here.
He, he was in Belfast at his girlfriend's.
Why did you do it?
Because we need the money.
Someone fly-tipped
a load of hazardous waste all over our land.
The council said we had
to get rid of it or we'd be fined a fortune.
So, Tom re-mortgaged the farm to clear it.
Now the bank's threatening to foreclose.
But that doesn't explain why
a normal person like you would steal a cash machine.
Everybody owes money.
I lost my eldest son. I'm losing my home.
I won't lose my husband as well.
To the drink, you mean? Three weeks ago,
I went out to the barn and Tom was standing there,
with a rope in his hand.
The look on his face, it scared me to death.
I'm sorry. You go through
the hell that we've been through, then you can tell me what
a normal person would do.
We need to do something about Tom.
I'll have a word with Siobhan.
See if she'll make a house call.
Do we really believe that Rosie planned all this herself?
I still think Jake was in on it.
Unless we can prove that,
she'll take the fall for the whole lot.
Maybe, when she's charged, he'll come clean.
And if he doesn't? Well, she's already confessed,
I mean we caught her breaking into the machine.
Yeah, but hasn't the family suffered enough?
Surely there must be something we can do?
Our job is to uphold the law when somebody breaks it.
After that,
anything else that happens, it's up to the courts, not us.
Callum,
call Jake and tell him to come down.
Finn? Hey. What's with all the hardnose stuff?
What?
They called you Mother Teresa at
our old station cos you always saw the good in people.
Well, maybe I'm not a sucker for a sob story any more.
I want to see my mum. Where is she?
She's being held in custody until she's brought before
the magistrate in the morning.
What for?
Your mother's being charged with theft.
She was found breaking into the stolen cash machine.
She confessed to being solely responsible for
the ATM theft. Unless you know any different?
Please, let me see her.
You've got five minutes. Marlene, take him through, please?
Can I go with him?
No, just Jake.
I'm sorry, you're both going to have to take a seat.
You have five minutes, OK?
I'm going to jail, son.
No point in those other lads going too.
They've got responsibilities and futures.
If you don't say who helped you, you will get a longer sentence.
That doesn't matter to me. It was my decision,
nobody else's, and I'll face the consequences alone.
I don't know when I'll be able to hug my son again!
I love the very bones of you, Jake.
I'm so proud to be your mother.
I'll be OK, sweetheart.
You look after your dad for me. Do you hear?
I will.
I'd just like to say that all of you handled
a very difficult case today, with a lot of sensitivity.
And none of us are happy about the outcome.
What about Tom?
Siobhan's already been in to see him
and now the mental health crisis unit will make
an assessment.
I'll call round and talk to him about Rosie.
See yous later you in The Commodore. Yeah. Good luck.
Look, I'll finish off the paperwork on Rosie.
You two get yourselves down to the pub.
Can't. I've some doorbell cam footage that needs checking.
Give it here. I'll look at it.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
You two get a round in and I'll follow you down.
Ah. All right? All right. Nice. After you, Sarge.
Your Taylor's a good girl.
I know.
And you shouldn't have dragged her into your mess.
Once she's got something into her head,
have you ever been able to stop her?
I didn't think so.
She's like my Tom and Cormac, stubborn as mules,
but full of fireworks. You can't help but love them.
I know what you mean.
Jake is different.
Soft-hearted but fierce protective of the ones he loves.
Sounds a lot like you.
Maybe he is.
I'd do anything to protect my child. Wouldn't you?
What's this?
It was my idea.
The other ATM thefts you talked about.
It all sounded so easy.
I said it would be karmic justice if they repaid
the mortgage with the money they robbed from
the bank's machine. It sort of snowballed from there.
It wasn't meant to turn out like this.
Banks are insured for theft. They won't lose anything,
but you lose the best decade of your life.
If it helps Rosie, then I'm OK about going to jail.
Giving yourself up won't save her, all right?
But this can save you.
I'm sorry I haven't been there for you
the past year, when you needed me.
I'm sorry, Dad.
Come here.
Thank goodness,
no-one knows that you're a paintball champion, eh?
I've dealt with bank robbers.
I can't believe that a decent,
hard-worker like Rosie would do that kind of thing.
Finn suggested that we write
character references, for the court case.
With my reputation?
I don't know how helpful a reference would be from me?
Yeah, you're right. I'll just do one from me, then.
Grab us a pint and bring it up here, will you, cub?
You can't avoid each other forever...
Watch me.
All right, Clint. All right, Callum.
All right, Barry?
Listen, if you're coming down here
to lecture me about your woman, you can just jog on.
Who? Marlene? Anyway,
she won't be around to annoy us much longer.
Not once she's completed her Form Five.
What's that?
She's applying for a transfer? Where to? Belfast?
Oh, no! I wasn't supposed to say anything.
Please don't tell her I blabbed.
Hey, is Marlene really leaving?
No. But if Barry cares about her, maybe he'll ask her to stay.
You're not as daft as you look.
Oi, pints.
Two?
So, you were just going to leave, without telling me about that too?
What? I've only just arrived.
I'm talking about your transfer to Belfast. The cub let it slip. Wha..?
I think there's been a wee misunderstanding.
You mean, you're not leaving Port Devine?
No! Never.
I erm, I thought it was another
thing that you were keeping from me.
I keep things from you because you always overreact...
..and...I'm terrified of losing you.
You will never lose me.
I was just upset
because you felt that you couldn't confide in me.
What, so,
you're not against me having this baby for Nicole and Clint?
Listen,
I don't care whether you're
a surrogate, a lesbian or limbo dancer,
as long as you're happy.
Are you sure?
Because I won't do this without the support of my da.
I'm sure.
Come here.
So does this mean you can start taking your hormone injections?
Yeah, it does. Great. OK,
first one is tomorrow morning at 8am sharp.
And, this is your last pint until the baby's born so, enjoy.
I don't know what you're laughing at.
Until we wet the baby's head, there'll be none for you, either.
Hey, what do you mean, what's that all about.
Here, Marlene, listen...
..are you sure that you want to give up the chance to have
a baby of your own? I mean, lesbians,
they can be parents too, you know.
Yeah, I know but... I'm happy to do this for them.
Besides,
while everyone's talking about me being a surrogate,
they won't be gossiping about me being gay.
Oh, no? I think you'll find everyone will be talking about both.
So, what did your dad want?
I was caught on a doorbell cam.
Well, that's great, when they see mum didn't act alone,
they'll have to reduce her sentence.
Dad deleted the file.
He did what?
He said it would've landed all three of us in jail.
You did it to save your own skin.
That's not true.
You had a chance to take the blame back at the station and you...
Because I promised Mum I'd look after my dad!
So, I saved my own skin, but you're a martyr?
Why did you have to put this stupid idea in her head?
I didn't force her to do anything.
I wish I'd never met you.
Rosie's going to jail when I'm the one that should be locked up.
Tom....
What has you drinking so much?
Since our eldest died,
it's the only way I can get to sleep.
I'm angry all the time. Even with Rosie. I just lash out.
Then I see the hurt in her eyes and that makes things worse.
To do what she did, she must love you a lot.
She needs your support now, Tom, more than ever.
And this stuff, this - it's only making it worse.
Will you please at least keep that appointment Siobhan made?
I spoke to some of your neighbours,
they're going to write character references
and they're going to ask the judge
to consider reducing Rosie's sentence.
They'd do that for us?
If they'd known about your difficulties,
they would've reached out sooner.
We all would.
I've been a millstone around Rosie's neck.
If I loved her half as much as she loves me,
I'd have done the decent thing and left her years ago.
I've hurt the ones I love, too.
We need to take responsibility. They deserve better.
Oh, here.
Better take that with you.
Son, come and sit down.
I'll move over and let you sit beside your wife.
Siobhan, could I have a wee word?
I...I'm sorry, erm...
..Concepta's been putting you under all this pressure.
You know, you've enough to contend with without, you know,
her trying to force us back together...
Look, I, but I...
Listen, your health, that's the priority now.
So I'm going to make it really clear,
that we live in the same house,
but our marriage is over...for good.
I'll talk to him.
What do you want?
This is the final demand from the bank. They're taking the farm.
I'm sorry for you and your parents.
Mm-hm.
I heard you destroyed
the evidence you found against Taylor.
I still have the paintball gun covered in her DNA. And...
..these texts from Taylor saying she's a crack shot
and can take out the CCTV cameras, no problem.
If you use that, you'll incriminate yourself.
I've got nothing left to lose, except my home.
Pay off this bank loan or
Taylor ends up sharing a cell with my mum.
