Quotes 

• Molly : [to Hector's ghost]  I could kill you. It's a good job you're already dead!

• Molly : I would rather be poor with a man I love than rich with someone I don't.

• Golly Mackenzie : [at a service dedicating a memorial for Hector]  Forgive me, Fiona. I just want to say a few words. Mainly to this man here

  [indicates Peter Finlay with his hand] 

  Golly Mackenzie : Peter Finlay you've been gone from this place for nigh on forty years and I've seen your face in my dreams countless times. You suffered a terrible wrong here. You were no thief. And I know that for the simple reason that I was.

  Jessica McCrae : Dad...

  Golly Mackenzie : I know... I know. It was Old Golly, the faithful servant, the upright man. I'm afraid it's true.

  Molly : My ring?

  Golly Mackenzie : I stole this ring. I robbed my Laird and I let another man suffer for my crime. Molly... Molly... the moment you came to Glenbogle I was daft about you. Never felt that way before. But, you were out of my reach and you had Hector, the love of your life. But I had to have something of you, a token of you, of what I felt for you...

  Molly : Golly...

  Golly Mackenzie : So I took this and I stood by and watched Hector convict young Finlay here. You were in Molly's bedroom that day fixing her radiator. Wrong place, wrong time.

  Peter Finlay : You!

  Golly Mackenzie : I was young... very young, very foolish. I'm making no excuses.If it's any consolation, I have been punished for it. I've never known happiness - lasting happiness - with any woman. Well... I brought that on myself.

  [hands ring to Molly] 

  Golly Mackenzie : Please, take that back. I'm sorry. I'm sorry Peter.

• [first lines] 

  Molly : [reading a letter]  Oh no.

  Paul : I had no choice. In the last year we've failed to reach the income targets laid out in our business plan. I thought the bank was going to give us more time. They haven't. So they've foreclosed on the loan to the estate. Selling the house is the obvious way of paying it off.
