* BigBad: Goliath, the mysterious contract killer who apparently killed 4 people over the north-south divisions in Ireland during the troubles, with their bodies never being found, and then vanished without a trace. Amongst his presumed victims was Tom's wife. [[spoiler:Except not. Goliath is revealed to actually be Tom himself, who took on the role in an attempt to rescue his wife after she was apparently kidnapped by a pro-republican group, an attempt which went horribly wrong. The plot is instead about Tom trying his best to obscure his past whilst finding out who's digging up the Goliath case, but it's still Tom's actions that drive the plot, albeit he has [[TragicVillain sympathetic reasons]] to do so]].

* TragicVillain: [[spoiler:'Goliath' is actually Tom Brannick himself, who came home one day to find his wife apparently kidnapped by a pro-republican group, who threatened him to allow a secret shipment of weapons into the country with her hostage. Rather than allow the dangerous weapons to be distributed to domestic terrorists, Tom staged a one-man rescue attempt to ambush the kidnappers, only to find out that his wife was actually in league with them the whole time. Despite killing everybody else involved in the event, Tom didn't have it in him to kill the mother of his child, and instead threatened Emma to leave Ireland forever and never return, going on to try his best to raise his daughter alone in her mother's absence, unable to tell the truth to anyone. Despite killing Adam Corry and endangering Claire, it's made clear he's deeply reluctant to go to such extreme lengths, and only does so because neither will stop trying to discover who Goliath was to get justice for his past victims]].
