He got drunk and had a fight with his cousin.

Do we have to do this now?
Erm, got to go, guys.
See ya later.
Okay love, speak to you later.
-Goodb-- Bye.
-Bye!
Assumpta: I'm sorry, Finn.
But you coming here was a terrible mistake.
You and me, we're nothing to one another.
♪♪ ♪♪ The person responsible for Kerry's death is now running that kids' home.
That's why you got yourself transferred down here.
If you're so sure this person is to blame for Kerry's death, why are they not behind bars?
The Prosecution Service, they said that there wasn't enough evidence.
That's tough.
Now you know why I'm here.
Can I count on your support?
Sorry?
Well, you must understand, I need to put Kerry's killer away.
You think because we've gone to bed a few times, I'm gonna turn a blind eye to you running an illegal investigation?
-No, of course not!
-Well, think again.
Either you tell the Acting Inspector what you've been up to, or I will.
Are you sure about that, Callum?
Isn't Marlene gonna wonder how you found all of this out?
Oh, you wouldn't dare.
What, tell her that you and I have been secretly sleeping together?
You just watch me.
No, she'd know that I've lied to her.
She'd never forgive me.
Yeah, well, that's up to you.
Either you keep your trap shut about all of this, or I tell Marlene everything and you say goodbye to your cosy little job.
