Plot
editBernie questions Dermott over his whereabouts on the morning Lance died; he says he was in the church and he last saw Lance in the pub the night before. Kieran tells Bernie that he remembers Dermott letting Iris die on the boat and suspects he was involved in the Cois Dara fire. Bernie then asks Kathleen about the last time she saw Lance and Kathleen wonders if Bernie suspects something happened, but Bernie denies this. Padraig finds Adeen crying by the side of the road, and later takes her to get an emergency contraceptive pill because she had sex with her friend Jimmy (Mark McKenna). Afterwards, Adeen tells Padraig she saw Andrew and Kieran together and asks if Andrew is gay, to which Padraig says no. Dermott takes Alfie to the hospital for an operation, where the doctors tell Alfie his recovery could take weeks, so he will be unable to go home as planned. Alfie asks Dermott to find Kathleen and bring her to the hospital.
Roisín and Eileen find Peter and bring him home, and Roisín tells Eileen that he is an alcoholic. Peter confronts Agnes over swapping his baby for Dermott, but Agnes says his affair with Roisín caused the baby to die and it is his own fault. She warns him not to reveal the truth, otherwise Eileen will discover that Mouse died because Iris discovered the affair and turned to drink, and therefore Peter and Roisín caused the death of Eileen's daughter. Agnes insists that Dermott is still Peter's son and not to lose him. Peter tells Bernie that Dermott was the last person to see Lance alive as they had arranged to meet that morning. Bernie then sees CCTV footage of Dermott deleting her emails while she was giving birth.
Kieran tells Andrew that he does not want to break up his family, so ends their affair and says he will return to New York. However, Andrew later visits Kieran and they kiss. Roisín and Padraig argue about him not making sure there is money in their bank account for the morning, and when he asks why she did not leave him years ago, she says she did. Agnes tells Roisín that because Peter is drinking, Eileen could find out about their affair that resulted in Mouse's death. Agnes asks Roisín to help her send Eileen back to the United States, and shows her a letter from Lance's son in Manchester, asking about the will.
Bernie sees Dermott with Kathleen on the beach, and Kathleen tells Dermott that Bernie was asking about him. Dermott sees the garda arriving so takes Kathleen in Peter's boat, saying they will try to find the whale that was recently seen off the coast. Bernie shouts at him to stop and calls the coastguard. Kathleen asks Dermott if he did something to Lance; he accidentally crashes the boat into a rock and Kathleen is thrown into the water and then cut by the propellor. Dermott gets Kathleen out of the sea but there is nobody around to help. Unable to wait for Kathleen, Alfie has his operation. He loses his pulse and the medical staff start to resuscitate.
