Transcript

00:00Thank you for listening.

00:30Thank you for listening.

01:00All right, all right.

01:04So I've got other things on my mind.

01:07Right, well, if there's nothing else, I'll just...

01:09Do no, Matt. I'll talk to you.

01:16Something's come up.

01:19It's about the business.

01:23There's some potential new suppliers.

01:27Might get us back on track.

01:28As you know, the phone's not exactly been ringing off the hook recently.

01:34So what's the problem?

01:37Well, they don't want to deal with me directly.

01:41I think my methods are a bit too old school.

01:45So I need a new face at a tap.

01:48Somebody fresh.

01:49Younger.

01:51With Darren gone, I was thinking about...

01:56Alex Murdoch.

01:58Alex Murdoch?

01:59Yeah.

02:00Well, then he's kind of in the same blow as me.

02:03Yeah.

02:04Worse since he took that nosedive off his scaffolding.

02:07You want to merge with the Murdoch?

02:09If I can convince Alex to go for him.

02:12And you think it will?

02:16Well, they can be very persuasive.

02:19So how bad is it?

02:23Sonny's had multiple seizures since they brought him in.

02:28So what happens now?

02:30The damage to his liver is too far gone.

02:32They're looking at end-of-life care.

02:40I'm so sorry, Maggie.

02:43Does he know?

02:45I was there when the consultant told him.

02:51Oh, I wish I could have saved him.

02:55That was Sonny's job till then.

02:58Not yours.

03:02He knows that.

03:05He keeps blaming himself.

03:08I'll go in and see him today.

03:12I'm sure there's no one else he'd rather see than you.

03:15So is it a lot of money?

03:28Put it this way.

03:30It was more than a fiver.

03:32Thing is, I think I know who took it.

03:36Who?

03:38Callum.

03:39What?

03:41And you're sure?

03:42No.

03:43I'm not.

03:44But he's been flashing the cash as if he's recently won the lottery.

03:47Expensive trainers.

03:49New gear for his gaming.

03:51Doesn't add up.

03:52Oh, can you not just call him out on it then?

03:54Our relationship's no like that.

03:56I mean, it's better than it was.

03:58But I cannae go accusing him of skimming money off me.

04:01And what we call him's past.

04:04No, he's no like the girls.

04:06It's a different kind of relationship.

04:08I mean, if I confront him, he'll go off the deep end.

04:11Well, I mean, you can't just sit and stew on this.

04:14I mean, I know I made a load of mistakes, but...

04:17Looking back on me and Jessie, it was always better to get things out in the open.

04:21I mean, even if it was difficult.

04:24You're right.

04:25Oh.

04:27I'll talk to him.

04:35Here.

04:37It's a cup of tea for you.

04:41And a wee bicky.

04:43You deserve it after the night you've had.

04:51Thanks, Mikey.

04:53You're a star.

04:55So what did they have to say at the hospital?

05:03He's got weeks.

05:06Maybe days.

05:09They said they'll call me if anything changes.

05:18Who's that?

05:20It's just James.

05:22What does he want?

05:24He wants to meet up later.

05:27But I can't deal with that.

05:29Not on top of everything else.

05:33I just feel like everything's falling apart.

05:37I've hardly heard from him since that showdown with Emma.

05:41Apart from the odd text about Sonny.

05:42He'll have been giving you space.

05:45He's one of the good guys, Gigi.

05:48Invite him over to clear the air.

05:51You'll feel better.

05:53Do you think?

05:54Oh, absolutely.

05:56Don't let what's going on with everything else take over.

05:58Oh, we could speak to Mick. Test the waters. We said the last visit went well.

06:17We'd be better talking to Dad's doctor. He's the expert.

06:19Well, that's not going to get us anywhere, is it?

06:22Been weeks since we last saw Dad.

06:24I'm sure he'll be able to visit him soon.

06:26Anyway, you've got all things to be thinking about.

06:28How have you been?

06:30Yeah, good. I've got a check-up at the health centre in a minute.

06:34Have you got another exciting day planned at Amber Cabs?

06:37Yep. Haven't got a new duster for the filing cabinets.

06:40Things that bad, eh?

06:42No, it's a bit slow.

06:44Well, things will pick up. They always do.

06:47I'll catch you later, yeah?

06:48Yeah.

07:01Can we talk?

07:03About what?

07:04I've got a proposition for you.

07:07We're not here, eh?

07:09Let's go inside.

07:15Just let me know if you need a bit.

07:27Am I not dead yet?

07:29Don't.

07:31This is serious.

07:35This is another point where you get to say...

07:39I told you so.

07:44Have you met me?

07:49I'm finished, Maggie.

07:50It's what I deserve.

07:56To die like this.

07:59On my own.

08:01Don't say that.

08:03You're not on your own.

08:06I'm here.

08:07You've always been honest with me, Maggie.

08:13I've...

08:15told it like it is.

08:17But you...

08:19You did it.

08:20You managed to...

08:22You managed to...

08:25beat this thing.

08:26It's like...

08:27You've got your whole life ahead of you.

08:35I...

08:37Well, I guess I blew it.

08:39Maybe if I tried a bit hard.

08:43You tried harder than anyone I know.

08:49Remember what I told you?

08:54I'd be with you every step of the way.

08:56I'm not going anywhere.

08:58I'm not going anywhere.

09:27What are you doing?

09:32So...

09:33Let me get this right.

09:35My dad is in hospital.

09:37And you're suddenly offering me the opportunity of a lifetime.

09:40I don't think I used those exact words, but...

09:44It is a smart business move.

09:47Well, that's good of you to let me know.

09:50Why bring this to me?

09:51Because we're stronger if we join forces.

09:54We've been down this road before.

09:56This time we'll be different.

09:58You would have the bigger stake.

10:01Because you'd be running it.

10:05We're 60% of the share.

10:08Compared to Earth 40.

10:12What's in it for you?

10:14The same as you.

10:16The chance of being in the biggest OCG in Scotland.

10:22You see...

10:24Your dad...

10:27He's the best, but...

10:29You know, he's set in his ways.

10:30Like me.

10:32And these new suppliers.

10:33They want someone young at the top of their game.

10:36With new ideas.

10:37New ways of working.

10:39This is a hard business, Alex.

10:42But you're good under pressure.

10:44I've seen that for myself.

10:47And your fella...

10:49He sees it too.

10:52You cannae learn...

10:54How you lead in this game.

10:55It's gonna be in your blood.

11:00Why now?

11:02Honest answer.

11:05Me and Lanny cannae do this for a while.

11:06And I don't have...

11:09What ye has.

11:11A son...

11:12Wean in the wings.

11:16Listen, there's never gonna be...

11:18The right time.

11:22But it's your call.

11:25I'll think about it.

11:29Alright.

11:31But the supplier wants an answer for me.

11:33Today.

11:34Where are you going?

11:38Away from you.

11:40Oh, please stay.

11:41I'm sorry, alright?

11:42Yeah, sorry you get caught.

11:44I was just...

11:46What, going for my stuff?

11:47What were you even looking for?

11:49Calm down.

11:50Callum, please.

11:52Tell me.

11:54Look, I had some money put away.

11:55And it's gone missing.

11:56And you think I took it?

11:58What were your precious girls?

11:59I bet you've never asked them.

12:01Look, Callum, I'm sorry.

12:03First my money goes missing,

12:04and then you turn up with those expensive trainers.

12:05I make my own money.

12:06Good money.

12:07And even if I didn't,

12:08I'd never steal.

12:09Especially from you.

12:11I've turned my life around.

12:12But if you'd actually been here,

12:13you'd known that.

12:15You're never gonna change your mind about me, are you?

12:17No, that's no true.

12:18Yes, it is.

12:19It is.

12:20It is.

12:21It is.

12:22It is.

12:23It is.

12:24It is.

12:25It is.

12:26It is.

12:27It is.

12:28It is.

12:29It is.

12:30It is.

12:31It is.

12:32It is.

12:33It is.

12:34It is.

12:35It is.

12:36It is.

12:37It is.

12:38It is.

12:39Things are much easier for you when I'm at the picture.

12:40How can you say that?

12:41I love having you around.

12:42Apart from the fact you think I'm a thief.

12:45Look, Callum,

12:46I have handled this all wrong.

12:48I really am sorry.

12:52Can I go now?

12:53Ten minutes.

12:54That's all I've got headspace for right now.

12:55I know it's a difficult time.

12:56Anyway, you can't complain.

12:57You're the one that bailed out on me last week when it all kicked off, remember?

13:14I just found out your daughter was seeing Harry Foulkes.

13:17It was a shock.

13:18And how do you think I felt?

13:21I'm sorry.

13:24But for what it's worth, I've had them checked it.

13:29Yes.

13:30Harry Foulkes and your daughter and the relationship.

13:33So above board.

13:35She's not working for him or anything.

13:37That never even crossed my mind.

13:40Well, that did mine.

13:42He was using her to get information on me.

13:45Well, just tell me you're not using her to get something on him.

13:48Oh, what?

13:49I mean it, James.

13:50This is my daughter we're talking about.

13:51Now, relax.

13:53I know things got a bit out of hand last week when I found out.

13:58I don't want to spoil what we've got.

14:01So, can we move on?

14:05Please.

14:06Listen, I could have a word with her if you want.

14:11Let her know exactly what she's getting herself into.

14:15No way.

14:17You tell her not to see him, you'll be pushing her right into his arms.

14:24Thanks again for meeting me at such short notice.

14:26I know you're keen to get an idea of your dad's progress.

14:29His physical symptoms are healing, as you know.

14:32He's also started to respond to his medication.

14:35Therapy.

14:36There are some positive signs.

14:38Do you think he might be up for a visit from us soon?

14:40We'll let him lead with that, but I don't see why not.

14:44Everything's moving in the right direction.

14:46Ah, well, we're looking forward to getting him back home with us.

14:48And back to work.

14:50Obviously, I know that'll take time.

14:51Do you have any idea when he might be ready for that?

14:55His recovery could take months, Alex.

14:57Possibly years.

14:59It's not a straight line.

15:01No, no.

15:02Of course.

15:04You need to be ready for a world where Lenny might never come back to work.

15:10I see.

15:11Stress.

15:12Pressure.

15:13It's what triggered your dad's breakdown.

15:16If he's pushed, it could undo everything.

15:21Ah, you're right.

15:23That's all I needed to hear.

15:27Right.

15:32You two.

15:33I need you both to put your listening ears on because this is important.

15:38Now, I had some money that was in a case underneath my bed.

15:43Did either of you take it?

15:45You're absolutely sure?

15:48A hundred percent?

15:49Nobody else was in my room.

15:50Aunty Madonna was.

15:51When?

15:52We were playing hide and seek and she found Jamie in there.

15:56Oh.

15:57And where did she find you, Jamie?

15:58Under the bed.

15:59Mum?

16:00Is Aunty Madonna in trouble?

16:01Uh, no.

16:02No, not at all.

16:03Do you know what?

16:04I just thought it was me that took the money to get your new clothes.

16:06Right.

16:07Er, how about we go and visit Gran's shop?

16:08Come on, let's go.

16:09We'll go and you can help her tidy the shelves.

16:10Yep.

16:11And I just need to pay someone a wee visit.

16:13I just need to pay someone a wee visit.

16:15I just need to pay someone a wee visit.

16:45You got an answer for me?

17:10There's conditions before I come out.

17:14Like?

17:19Information on these suppliers.

17:21So I can do my own background checks.

17:23Oh, sounds reasonable.

17:24And nothing happens unless it goes through me.

17:26Understood.

17:29So we have a deal.

17:44Sorry to interrupt.

17:47Alex, can I speak to you?

17:50Is everything alright?

17:51I'm in the middle of something.

17:53Yeah, it's just, Angus had to go back to work and it's about the appointment.

17:57You okay?

17:58Look, can we pick this up later?

18:01Aye, sure.

18:03You know where to find me.

18:04Is there a problem with the baby?

18:10Nah, I just wanted to get rid of him.

18:13What is wrong with you?

18:14What is wrong with me?

18:15I saw you speaking to him earlier, but I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to invite him in.

18:21Were you about to do a deal with him?

18:23Maggie.

18:33I've been thinking.

18:38There's something I need to do before I go.

18:43What's that?

18:44I need to make amends.

18:47Alcoholics anonymous.

18:49Step...

18:50Step nine.

18:51Sonny, you don't have to.

18:53I've messed up.

18:55I've let folk down.

18:56I've hurt them.

18:57That's all in the past.

19:00Best just leave it there.

19:03I'll never find any peace if I don't try to fix things.

19:08And I need your help to right the wrongs.

19:11That's what they say, isn't it?

19:12Of course I'll help you.

19:15How do you want to start?

19:18I need to make a list of all the people that I've harmed.

19:22You sure you're up to this?

19:24Yes.

19:26And I know who I want to speak to first.

19:30You.

19:33All the times you tried to help me, and I threw it back in your face.

19:38Oh, Sonny, you don't have to do this.

19:42We're good.

19:43I promise.

19:46Please, just let me say I'm sorry.

19:57Maggie.

19:59I am.

20:01I am.

20:03Sorry.

20:04We're all right.

20:05Let's get cracking on this list, shall we?

20:15Oh!

20:16Oh!

20:17I can't believe that you're even considering this.

20:27That man cannot be trusted.

20:29And you're the voice of reason.

20:31Using your pregnancy to manipulate me.

20:32You should be thanking me.

20:33You should be thanking me.

20:34I stopped you before you made a huge mistake.

20:36Amber.

20:37I know what I'm doing.

20:38Aren't you forgetting something?

20:40What?

20:41Harry tried to have you killed.

20:43Not just once.

20:44Twice.

20:45Oh, I remember.

20:46Thanks.

20:47It's just part of being in the business.

20:48Okay.

20:49Well, think about it this way.

20:51You've joined forces with them before, and it's never worked out well.

20:55This'll be different.

20:56In what way?

20:57I'll be in charge.

20:58Right.

20:59He's gonna let you run things.

21:00A 60-40 split.

21:01In our favour.

21:02So you can be the fall guy if things go wrong.

21:04Don't you see?

21:05He's played you.

21:06Massaged your ego.

21:07And you've bought it!

21:10You'd never be doing this if Dad was back.

21:14I spoke to Dr Albert.

21:17What?

21:18When?

21:19I met him.

21:20Earlier.

21:22Okay.

21:23What did you talk about?

21:25I asked him when Dad would be well enough to work again.

21:28And?

21:29It might not happen.

21:35Well, he's wrong.

21:37So are you.

21:38You don't know that.

21:39I know Dad.

21:40And I know what he'll do when he comes back and he finds you've thrown us in with the folkses.

21:43Stop living in the past.

21:45When Dad jumped, he took our reputation with them.

21:47Things can't go on like this.

21:49Look.

21:50I know it's hard.

21:51But you just need to keep the business ticking over till Dad gets back.

21:54Face facts, Amber, right?

21:55The murderk name isn't what it once was.

21:57And the folkses are in the same boat.

21:59This way we save both families and give them a boost.

22:02And hand them the murderks on a plate.

22:03Oh, come on!

22:05Harry, folks, is gonna push you off this pedestal as soon as it suits him.

22:09If you can't see that, then you're more stupid than I thought.

22:12Oh, dear.

22:13I'm so hopeless.

22:14I'm never gonna get through this list.

22:15I've done so many rotten things to so many people.

22:16Maybe it's time for a break.

22:17You've done enough.

22:18No!

22:19It's taking it out of you.

22:20You need to rest.

22:21Oh, I'm sorry.

22:22I'm sorry, Maggie.

22:23I'm just feeling sorry for myself again.

22:24And you know, I never once thought about what I was putting those other folks through.

22:28You know what the really funny thing is?

22:29Oh.

22:30Even though it's...

22:31What's killing me?

22:32If you weren't offering me a drink right now, I'd probably take it.

22:33Oh, Sonny.

22:34I'm sorry.

22:35I'm sorry.

22:36I'm sorry, Maggie.

22:37I'm just feeling sorry for myself again.

22:40And you know, I never once thought about what I was putting those other folks through.

22:47You know what the really funny thing is?

22:51What?

22:52Even though it's what's killing me, if you weren't offering me a drink right now, I'd probably

22:58take it.

22:59Oh, Sonny.

23:00I know.

23:01I know.

23:02It sounds stupid, doesn't it?

23:03No, it doesn't.

23:04It sounds honest.

23:06I'm fighting it.

23:09Hard.

23:10Even now.

23:11It's the only thing I ever knew that helped to take the pain out of you.

23:18But they're wanting it.

23:21And it never leaves you, does it?

23:23No.

23:24We just have to learn to live with it.

23:28Well.

23:29I guess I never did get the hang of that guy.

23:31You know, you've still got time, Sonny.

23:36I know from experience it's never too late.

23:41I'm so proud of you for doing this.

23:42Yeah.

23:43I may have wasted my life, but I'm not going to waste my death.

23:51Right.

23:52Let's carry on with this list, eh?

23:54Aye.

23:55It's only me.

23:56Oh, good.

23:57I'm glad you're home.

23:58I'm just about to head out.

23:59Oh, could you just give me five minutes?

24:03I tried to phone you earlier.

24:04What about?

24:05Well, I was wanting to have a chat about you and maybe managing my online stuff.

24:06Oh, I can't take that on.

24:07Not just now.

24:08Sorry.

24:09Oh, okay.

24:10The offer's been withdrawn.

24:11Oh, well, in that case I really do need to be somewhere.

24:14Not so fast, lady.

24:15Because of you, I am not going to be a fool.

24:16...".

24:17I'm now going to be the one in the place of my company.

24:18I'm very good.

24:19Oh, I'm glad you're home.

24:20I'm just about to head out.

24:21Oh, could you just give me five minutes?

24:24I tried to phone you earlier.

24:25What about?

24:26Well, I was wanting to have a chat about you and maybe managing my online stuff.

24:29Oh, I can't take that on.

24:32Not just now.

24:32Sorry.

24:33Oh, okay.

24:35The offer's been withdrawn.

24:37Oh.

24:38Well, in that case I really do need to be somewhere.

24:40Not so fast, lady.

24:42Because of you, I had a huge blowout with my son the day.

24:46I don't see...

24:47I accused him of stealing money from me.

24:49What?

24:49And here all along, it was you.

24:52I don't know what you're talking about.

24:53Well, let me spell it out for you then.

24:55The £3,000 you stole.

24:57I never.

24:58I don't know why you even...

24:59The other day, you were in my bedroom and you helped yourself to my money.

25:02I never...

25:03It went missing the day you were in the flat.

25:05Yeah, minding the girls.

25:07I never touched any money.

25:08I never saw any money.

25:09Why would I even look under your bed?

25:12I never said it was under my bed.

25:22I'm sorry.

25:25How sorry?

25:27I was desperate.

25:28You better pay me back.

25:30Every single penny.

25:31I can't.

25:33It's gone.

25:35Gone where?

25:37Debts, credit cards.

25:39Madonna!

25:40I told you.

25:41I was desperate.

25:44Please, don't tell Mum.

25:47Please, Kelly Marie, I'm begging you.

25:57Alex!

25:59Good morning.

26:00Sorry about your laugh.

26:02It's all right.

26:02Everyone's sorry.

26:03Yeah.

26:04So or just a bit of shake on it.

26:06Straight to the point.

26:08Just like your father.

26:09Well, I know a good deal when I see one.

26:11And you're right.

26:13It's time for me to take charge.

26:15Well, I'm glad to hear it.

26:16You said earlier that you need someone that's good under pressure.

26:19I can bring that to the table.

26:21Right, so?

26:23We're in business then?

26:24Actually, there's a couple of things I need to iron out.

26:28Such as?

26:29I'm still trying to work out.

26:33What's in it for you?

26:38We discussed this.

26:39No, no, no, no.

26:40I'm the right guy.

26:42The new Lenny.

26:44You're on your knees with no other option.

26:47I'm sorry?

26:48That's why you wanted to latch on to her name.

26:49To strengthen yours.

26:50No, no, no, no.

26:51You're right.

26:51We may use the full guy if it doesn't work out.

26:53So the answer

26:56is no.

27:01You're making a big mistake here.

27:03No, I'm not.

27:04Don't kid yourself.

27:06With this merge of the murders

27:07will collapse faster than you can imagine.

27:09No, I'm in charge.

27:10You in charge?

27:11You?

27:12You have no idea what it's like to be in charge.

27:14You just proved that.

27:15Watch me.

27:16I'm going to turn things around for us.

27:18Right, so you've got some brilliant master plan of you.

27:21Call it faith, the monability.

27:23I was just thinking about what my dad would do.

27:26And I know I've made the right choice.

27:28And that.

27:29You're nothing but Lenny.

27:32Oh, you've changed your tune.

27:36We're going to come back stronger than ever.

27:38On our own.

27:41Your old man's finished.

27:43And it's going to take you doing with him.

27:45Noted.

27:45I've been filling in job applications all morning.

27:54Well, anyone would be glad to have someone like you working for them.

27:57I should get a move on.

27:58Town will be busy.

27:59Go, go.

28:00You should get the whole family to visit.

28:02Didn't go so well the last time.

28:03All the more reason then.

28:05You sure this isn't too much?

28:07You know, everyone in all at once.

28:09Oh, no, I'm fine.

28:09I just wanted to say thank you and goodbye.

28:15To say goodbye.

28:16Yeah.
