Liam is then seen walking alone on the stony beach. An enraged Liam goes to Stan's house, trying to convince his mother to go back to their new home, only to receive insults from Stan.

Chantelle, now fully aware that Liam is dealing drugs, attempts to warn her little brother about their mother probably not being so thankful for Liam's efforts because she is too devoted to Stan, but this only provokes Liam even further. She appears uneasy, and the next morning is found to have escaped to Stan's house. ĭouglas promises to buy Liam an upscale apartment, and on the day before his birthday Liam's mother is released from the prison and taken to this new house on the coast of Gourock where she is welcomed with a party. Liam is seen reassuring his injured friend after phoning for an ambulance, but in the next scene he notifies the godfather that the deed has 'been done', leaving a viewer to infer that he has indeed murdered his friend. The next morning, Pinball-aware of Liam's intentions-first tries to stab Liam, then proudly tells him that he's the one who burnt down the caravan, not Stan. Liam speaks to the godfather in the morning and, to his chagrin, is ordered to 'take care of' the Pinball problem (i.e. He proceeds to crash the car into the health club. That evening, Pinball turns up in Douglas's (stolen) car, telling Liam that he wants revenge. Liam believes it was Stan who did it, and throws a rock through his window. Liam, Chantelle, Calum and Suzanne (Chantelle's friend) drive to the caravan to have a picnic, only to discover that it has been burned down. Liam attempts to do so, but is stopped by the gang, who inform him it was a test (which he has passed). They take Liam to a Glasgow nightclub and instruct him that he has to kill someone to join the gang. Pinball is kicked out, angering him further the gang members advise Liam to 'dump' Pinball for good. Liam and Pinball meet again with members of the drug godfather's gang, and Liam joins them in their car. Liam and Pinball carry on selling drugs to the local area, with the help of Liam's other friends who deliver pizzas. Pinball, meanwhile, is thrown into the health club showers due to his disrespectful manner towards the dealer, and vows revenge. Liam, who only wanted a peaceful life with his mother, agrees to work with them after the local godfather tells him to 'stay away from our shops'. Liam's efforts attract the attention of the local drug 'godfather', Tony Douglas. They soon develop 'entrepreneur skills' and raise several thousand pounds, which they pay as a deposit towards the caravan in Liam's mother's name. To purchase it he and Pinball steal a delivery of drugs from Stan's house and sell them, doing the very things Liam once hated – claiming that they will never get anywhere by selling cheap cigarettes. Liam, who loves his mother very much, fantasizes that he, his sister, and his mother can escape to the seaside and live in the caravan, away from Stan and Rab's wrath. They drive up through the Cloch caravan (trailer) park where Liam sees a caravan for sale in a spot overlooking the scenic Firth of Clyde. When Liam takes Calum for a walk along Greenock Esplanade, his friend Pinball arrives in a stolen car and insists on taking them joyriding along the coast.
