(muffled): Look at you. D'you get my messages?
I've been calling. How's your mother?
She still with her man?
(indistinct muffled speaking)
I thought of you every day, can you believe it?
(normally): I'm picking up the anti-booze.
Been off the sauce for eleven weeks and four days, but sure,
who's counting?
You look good. Tired. But good.
What brings you to Carlingford?

This is it.
What if he doesn't like me?
What if you don't like him?
Okay.
You'll be grand.
Yeah?
(sighs)
(soft music)
Hello.
You're gorgeous. Are you sure you're mine?
(laughing)
- Um, these are for you. - Oh! Thank you.
(sniffing) Thank you so much.
- Please, sit. - Is this okay?
Oh, my favourite spot.
Great.
Watch the whole world go by.
(bright music)
Must be the sugar.
- Hmm. - Ever since I quit the booze,
I've come here daily. I mean, religiously.
Our Father, who art in heaven,
give us this day our daily chocolate sundae...
(laughing) ...with whipped cream
and bits of cherry.
I traded one vice for another.
Oh, I...
I brought this, um...
so that you could see it, or... I don't know. Anyway...
Jesus Christ, eh?
You're the spit out of Susan's mouth.
Do you mind if I keep this?
It's yours. (chuckles)
Who's the lucky fella?
Oh! Um...
Yeah, we're sort of on a break, or break up,
or I-I'm not really sure which yet.
Well, what's for you won't pass you by.
Yeah.
I've been...
I've been trying to get it off. I think I might need
to give it back, but it's... it's stuck.
Stay right here.
(clears throat)
- (laughing) - What are you doing?
Doing a little magic.
Ancient Irish trick.
Butter.
Just rub some of that there. And there... That's right.
Try it.
- Ah! - Haha!
It worked! That's amazing!
Oh, my God! Look what I... Look what I found.
What's this?
You made it.
For Suze.
Janey Mac, I for... forgot all about this.
- I was good with me hands. - Yeah.
- Ah! - Oh!
Oh!
This is... this is on me.
Thank you.
Put this...
You're the sign I've been waiting for.
Sign that my life is back on the right track.
Listen, I have a gig tonight. Would you come?
- Yeah. - Bring Susan.
I'd love to see the two of youse together. I...
No, we'd love to!
- No fucking way! - Oh, come on, Suze!
He's sober! He's been sober for three months!
He's really trying.
Look, he knows he hasn't always been a good father,
but he wants to make up for lost time.
Just treat him like your biological father.
That's what I'm doing. No expectations.
(sighs)
(soft music)
(soft guitar strumming)
(indistinct background chatter)
From your Da.
Thank you so much.
Eh, c-can we get some water?
Well, it's good to see a few familiar heads
in the pub tonight.
(clears throat) This one...
is for that old pal who follows you around
wherever you go: trouble.
And I'd like to dedicate this song
to two very special women.
This is for my daughters.

- (laughing) - No!
I'll never forget Susan's first bike.
She was desperate for one, obsessed with it.
It had to be blue. Not light blue.
Not royal blue. Midnight blue, if you please.
(Sare laughing) We had nothin' then,
not a penny. But there was this old fella
in the pub I was singing in,
and he had a few bob,
and he was getting rid of one of his kids' old bikes
and it was only going in the skip and I thought, result!
This fella'll have something good.
(laughing) Hmm...
Well, when he showed it to me,
I was devastated.
It was terrible.
It was an old disgusting, filthy banger of a thing.
But I was good with bikes.
I put a new saddle and new brakes,
new bell and I painted it:
midnight blue with a pale blue stripe.
- Hmm. - Jesus.
I'll never forget bringing it home to her.
She must have been seven.
Eight.
Eight. Right.
Tiny, skinny thing she was.
What happened when she saw it?
She started bawling!
- No! No-oh-oh! - Yes!
I thought, "Good night! She hates it!
All this work and she doesn't even want it."
But then she threw her arms around me legs and said,
"Daddy, I love it.
It's the best bike I have ever seen."
You loved it, didn't ya?
Mm.
I will never forget that reaction.
Ever.
And after that, of course, I couldn't get her
off the bloody thing. She was... She was well sorted.
I think the whiskey's hit me.
I'm just, I'm going to get some water.
Could I get a glass of water, please?
Painting yourself as quite the saint there.
Right. I'm going. (clears throat)
Stay, i-if you want.
No, I'll come with you.
Is that... is that okay with you?
Ah, no, of course. You should be with your sister.
- Can I see you tomorrow? - Yeah. Absolutely.
I can come by the hotel.
- Thank you. Bye. - Bye.
Bye.
- Happy? - Yeah. I mean,
- I felt a real connection. - Great.
I keep picturing him fixing that bike.
Yeah. It was a nice bike.
(soft music)
Ah. Thank you.
Jimmy left this at reception.
Listen, please don't be too disappointed.
It's not about you.
What's a tog?
- Is this it? - God knows.
You didn't have to come.
I'm just making sure he's not gonna kidnap ya
and hold you to ransom.
Ha-ha-ha.
Oh, my God. Wow-ow-ow!
Hi!
Hey! Hello down there!
This way?
Okay!
(soft music)
(gulls squawking)
Wow!
This is amazing!
Yeah. This is where I come when my head is wrecked.
How did you do all of this?
Ah, nothing's too much for my girls.
Susan. Um, some food, cakes.
Oh.
My specialty...
- roast beef sandwiches. - Mmm!
But before we begin...
Uh...
The baptism.
Ahh...
- Ahh! - Ahh!
(laughing)
- Come on, girls! - Woo! Woo!
No! (excited squeal)
- Come on! - Oh, no-oh.
- Woo! - Oh, man!
- Woo! - Come on, girls!
It's good for the soul!
Is it freezing?
It's like a bath!
Woo!
Oh, Jesus!
Like the Bahamas!
(excited squeals)
(screaming)
Woo!
(soft music)
(laughing)
(♪)
(laughing)
Well, I'll write.
It's not the 1800s.
- We can do the Facetime thing. - We will!
All right, ah...
This is me.
- Ah! - Thank you.
Susan. Ta.
You're grand.
Aye. All right.
Be good, you two. (chuckling)
Don't go breaking any more hearts. Oh!
Bye.
(thunder booming)
Right. I'm borrowing this.
Do you think I look like him?
Yeah. A bit.
You definitely look like him.
- (scoffs) - Thanks.
Shit.
Where's the box?
I-I can't find my ring.
Again?
Oh! (laughing)
No, I got it.
Jesus, Canada. Right! Come on.
Let's get outta here.
- Ah, dinner's on me. - Obviously.
Wait!
When we get back to Dublin, I'm going to help you
find a good job, okay? We can make you a great resume.
What are some of your special skills?
(groaning)
Oh, my God! Jimmy?!
Are you okay?
(grunts)
Are you okay?
Come on. Come on.
(mockingly): Are you okay?
Are you okay?
I just wanted to see if you were all right. But you're...
Am I all right?
Who the fuck do you think you are? What?
- Come on. - Get a fuckin' load
of this one! Fucking waste of space.
Useless piece of shit on my shoe,
just like your fuckin' mother.
If your fucking mother had the decency to kill herself,
I'd still be in that fuckin' house!
- It was my fuckin' house! - Get off of her!
Get your fuckin' hands away from me,
you fuckin' American slut!
Or was that your ma?
Spread her legs just as quickly as I looked at her.
Go ahead.
No fuckin' children of mine. Get off to fuck.
Get off to fuck!
Go! Go away.
No fuckin' children of mine.
(soft music)
(chuckling)
(laughing)
(♪)
(crying)
(sighs)
Let's go get this ring back!
(engine starting)
(bright music)
(radio playing loudly)
(volume increases)
(music stops)
(thud)
(soft groaning)
(sniffling)
(groaning)
I'm sorry.
I'm so...
Where's the ring?
I'll get it back.
Where is it?
The barman.
He's holding on to it for me until I get me wages.
(sniffling) I'm sorry.
I'll be better.
I'll do better.
Could you pass me my tablets there, by the sink?
My Antabuse.
Please.
Pass me.
How much did he give you for it?
Three-three hundred Euro.
(scoffs)
I'll be better.
(birds chirping)
(soft music)
(sighs)
I'm gonna go get your ring back.
- See you back at the van. - Okay.
You know it's a stolen ring.
That's none of my business.
Yeah, it'll be your business when I call the guards.
You'd call the guards on your own da?
- That's low. - No, low is stealing
- from your own kid. - I'm sorry you've a shitty da.
- Join the club. - Mm.
But Jimmy owes me
and he gave me that ring fair and square.
Please give me the ring!
- Please! - No!
Come on!
He fixed up a bike for me
when I was little.
Painted it a beautiful midnight blue.
It was the nicest thing I ever had.
There you go, you see?
He wasn't all bad.
And then he came home drunk and pissed all over it.
- Right in front of me. - Jesus.
I scrubbed it so hard all the paint came off.
(sighs)
I always thought nothing good could come from him.
(laughing) But she... she's good!
She-she's actually, she-she's really good.
And she came from him.
And she...
She made me feel like there's some fucking hope out there.
So listen:
I'm not going anywhere
until you give me that fucking ring.
(giggling)
(laughing)
Sare!
(upbeat music)
What the fuck?!
(upbeat music)
(♪)
