Season 1 Episode 1

Darren Treacy (Robert Sheehan) returns to Dublin from Spain, spending time there while trying to avoid the Police in Ireland for gun possession. Darren's brother Robbie ( Chris Newman ) is released from Cloverhill prison. While waiting to be collected by Tommy, Robbie is shot outside a Newsagents in a drive by shooting. Darren rings Tommy to see what his delay is, which he covers up since he is sleeping with Darren and Robbie's sister Mary at the time. He is too late to meet with Robbie and on his arrival Robbie is dead. Nidge (Tom Vaughan-Lawlor) is Robbie's closest friend who has just purchased a gun and is currently learning how to use the weapon via a "YouTube" video. Darren is soon re-arrested but Gang boss John Boy Power (Aidan Gillen) pays for a Solicitor to bail Darren out of his gun charges, which are thrown out of court on a technicality. Darren's ex-girlfriend, Rose (Ruth Negga), is now pregnant with Stumpy's baby.
