INAUDIBLE CHATTER
DOOR OPENING
All right, Banksey? Yeah.
Didn't sleep much, but
..I'm good.
And your Freddie?
He didn't sleep much either.
He's making out
like he's buzzing, but
..put it this way - you won't
see him getting in a car
for a while.
HE SNIGGERS
Off the scale.
All right, lads?
Bobby.
What do yous want to do
security-wise?
Thought I should ask.
It's only Jamie
we're worried about.
You want to pat him down?
We'd rather tie him up.
Hiya.
Bobby's inside.
Says we're good to go.
ELAINE: Who else is there?
Michael, Banksey, Princess Diana
and Cheryl, apparently.
Cheryl?
Any idea what he wants to say?
No. Not at all.
MELISSA: This looks nice.
Has he never taken you here?
Jamie can't walk past a Nando's.
We're like one
big happy family, aren't we?
All that's missing is
a Christmas dinner.
OK, I'll just say it, shall I?
The reason why we're all here -
it's simple and straightforward.
I want out.
I want to walk away.
All this shit that's happened
..and I'm looking at you, Jay
..it's gone.
It's in the past.
But it's taken
all this shit to happen
for me to realise
that I can't do it any more.
I don't want to.
Walk away from what, Michael?
Walk away how?
Rach, let the man explain.
I'm asking a question, that's all.
She's right. Jamie
What?
As a group, we've got
enough money in the bank
to pay for 50 keys.
And now we've got a shipment
of 50 keys arriving tomorrow,
which needs paying for today.
Arriving from where?
Ricardo - the Amigos.
I'm proposing
..that Banksey and you, Bobby,
take the delivery.
Yous take control.
Yous cut it how you like,
you sell it,
usual lines, our lines,
which are now your lines.
And then, well,
yous are back in the game.
What, you'd expect us
to believe that?
I could have
fucking buried you, lad.
But I didn't.
Well, you did kill me aul' fella -
sorry to keep bringing it up.
Ronnie was a grass.
I think it might have been me
who killed him.
But you never - he did.
Listen, I don't mean
to bad-mouth your father
..but how the fuck do I know
he didn't snitch on me,
that it weren't him
who got me banged up?
Cost me a marriage,
cost Freddie a mother.
Why would he do that?
Because he was a fucking grass, lad.
Well, all of this is besides
the point.
And disrespectful
to the man who got us here.
So can we stop
trash-talking Ronnie
..and try to look to the future?
This shipment is defo happening?
It's happening.
Providing we pay Ricardo today.
What if we don't?
BANKSEY: We'd be stupid not to.
It's a no-brainer.
Well, let's assume we're all stupid.
What will the Amigo do if we don't?
He won't be very happy,
but he'll still be
a Colombian drug dealer.
HE SCOFFS
Half your life, Michael,
and you believe
you can just walk away?
It's what he wants.
You've known him
for 18 months, hon.
I've known him for 18 years.
This game's addictive.
I've had enough.
You placed the fucking order, lad.
You couldn't be more involved.
And why did I need
to place that order, Jay?
Why Bobby and Banksey?
It's not in your gift
to say who does what.
Babe, we're a team, me and you.
Jamie's family. He's in.
They know the lines.
The grafters know them.
Continuity.
I think it's a good idea.
And Michael thinks that
Cheryl should get a lump sum.
Yeah, which is only fair.
100K. That's about 3%
of your profit.
Barring some Davy questions -
that's my future.
Well, it's early days, Cheryl,
but that seems reasonable.
Yeah.
BANKSEY: Look, we can't be arseholes
about this.
It's on a plate.
Every single one of us
benefits from this,
and it brings an end
to the chaos.
Bobby?
Agreed.
100%.
What do you say, Elaine?
Shall we raise our glasses?
I think we've got to.
To the future.
ALL: To the future.
Are you OK? Yeah.
Don't believe a word he says.
No, don't. What? Just don't.
Look, you got away with it once,
and then we got away with it.
I don't want any trouble.
I don't want any guns.
Don't.
I need the loo.
Don't do anything until we talk.
Happy or sad, Jay?
Happy enough if we're getting
rid of soft lad.
It's going to work, you know.
It's a new era.
See you at the house, then?
Yeah. We'll talk.
We will.
Try not to fuck it up.
Uh, Cheryl
..I'll call and collect my stuff
in about an hour or so.
OK, hon. I'll be in.
Thank you.
I'll see you in a bit.
You know, I believe you, Michael.
Don't go making a fool of me.
Do it.
I will.
We will.
Good luck.
DIANA LAUGHS
Thanks.
BANKSEY: What now?
Get that money paid,
and that's it.
Bobby Duffy can do that.
He'll do that.
Right.
I'll speak to Ricardo,
let him know what's happening.
Tell him what he did
was fucking naughty.
It could have gone off
at any time.
Yeah, but it didn't.
That's not the point.
I know, but deal with it, lad,
because you've got to deal with him.
Right. See you later.
You will.
I can't wait.
For what?
Happy Town.
Right.
I'll see you later.
PHONE BUZZES
Tell me dad I'll be back
in a minute. All right, lad.
Morning, mate.
You won't believe
what's happening here.
What's that?
I'm in the middle of getting
fucking shafted.
By who?
Where are you now?
At me aul' fella's garage - why?
I need you to do something.
RACHEL: He might walk away,
but it'll be a short walk.
He'll be back -
you can count on it.
This is a good move for us, babe.
You should message Ricardo
as soon as we get back.
I will.
We're looking at a two-mil
profit here. At least.
It's still Michael's deal, though.
What are your thoughts?
It's a load of bollocks.
He won't walk away forever.
I said the same to Bobby.
And to be honest, he's got
no right to push me out.
Or you.
What do you think?
I'm not going back
to being a book-keeper.
Look, is there distance
between us and the Amigos?
Michael's made this deal.
Does that mean we've made a deal?
No. When we paid the debt,
we said he's on his own,
he's separate. So it's his tab?
I'd say so, yeah.
Why don't we drop a bomb, then?
BOBBY: Rach, shall we get this done?
Me and you?
Rach?
Yeah, in a minute.
Look, I'm sending you a sort code
and account number now.
What for?
PHONE CHIMES
It's a sample from Amsterdam.
PHONE BUZZES
All we spend's 75K.
It's a big sample.
But it was four kilos,
so it's a bargain.
And that's all we spend
till we know it's good,
and then we meet them.
We meet them?
Yeah, we.
And now you've got the numbers.
And Michael?
He owes the Colombians a load
of dough - that's his problem.
Rach! Rachel.
Tick tock.
LOCK CHIRPS
TYRES SCREECH
SHE SCREAMS
SHE SCREAMS
Fucking get hold of her!
Fucking get hold of her, lad! Stop!
Right, keep your mouth shut!
SHE SCREAMS
Stop! Look at me!
Stop fucking about.
SHE SCREAMS
No! Come here!
Can you see that, eh?
Can you fucking see that?
Do you want to be fucking cut
or what?
Stop fucking about!
That's better.
All good?
Yeah. I'm just checking
I've got the right account.
Right numbers.
Thanks, hon.
Code's on its way.
PHONE BEEPS
Here we go.
The letters are all capitals.
7U
..QT
M for mother
All done.
And just like that,
we are back in the game.
I'll give Banksey the good news.
Nice one. Any problems?
I told Helen to keep the shop
shut till we're done.
Be discreet.
We've got Diana.
You're a dick.
Come here. We can do this.
It's over, and you're stirring it up
again.
It'll never be over
until he's gone.
Trust me.
Do you trust me?
Yeah?
Come here.
First thing we do, lad,
we decide how much
we want to pass on pure,
then decide how much
we want to dilute the rest.
I can think of worse problems.
ENGINE STARTS
Go on, lad. Go on.
What's Jamie doing?
Where's he going?
How should I know?
I don't like it
when he wanders off.
RINGING TONE
PHONE BUZZES
Hello?
Jamie, what is it you're doing now?
Nothing.
Yeah, why have you left the house?
I'm not 12, lad. What do you want?
We need to get ready.
We need to make plans.
Let our people know
what's going to happen.
Jamie, are you a part
of this or not?
Bobby, I'm going on a message,
all right? That's all.
CALL DISCONNECTS
HE SIGHS
So, what's he up to?
I don't know what you mean.
He's got a second chance here.
Can't he see that?
PIANO PLAYS SOFTLY
QUIET CHATTER
Yes, sir?
I'm looking for Ricardo Guzman.
Guzman?
Yeah.
He practically lives here.
Right, Mr Guzman has
an all-day reservation,
but he's not here yet.
Would you like to wait this way?
Yeah.
Right, wait here
while I open up.
Are you going to behave, Diana,
or are we going to have
to use the tape?
Hey?
Just let me walk,
and I'll walk quietly.
Make a noise and I'll cut
your fucking fingers off.
ALARM KEYPAD BEEPS
Come on.
Keep going.
PHONE BUZZES
Hello, Rach. How are we?
RACHEL: It's done.
75,000 paid to your Amsterdam
people.
Yeah, well,
they're our people now.
That's good news, great news, Rach.
What about the Amigos?
I've given them nothing.
I haven't told Bobby.
Yeah, do you know what? I wouldn't.
Not yet. Not until it's too late.
Look, we'll cut our sample,
get it out there,
get ourselves over to the Dam.
How's that sound?
DOOR OPENS
Yous two go downstairs,
stay out of sight,
and park me aul' fella's cab, yeah?
Jay'll be here in a minute.
DOOR CLOSES
Do you want a bottle of water
or a brew or something?
No.
No?
"No, thank you."
Forget your manners, did you?
Is that to frighten me?
It's all a bit unnecessary,
this, innit, eh?
I'm not on board
with involving the girls, me.
Right, so what happens next?
To me?
Put it this way -
you won't be seeing
Michael Kavanagh any more.
What does that mean?
PHONE RINGS
Best leave that there, yeah?
'Can't get to the phone right now,
'but leave a message
or send me a WhatsApp
'and I'll get back to you.
Thank you!'
PHONE BUZZES
MICHAEL: Yeah?
Michael
..it's Cheryl Crawford.
Diana's car's outside my house.
But there's no sign of Diana.
HE KNOCKS ON WINDOW
Ta.
Yes.
All right, lad? Yes, bro.
What's happening, Diana?
Treating you all right?
Oh, yeah. Like a queen.
I didn't bother with the tape, lad.
Didn't need it.
Is that your fetish, Jamie?
Oh, let's get this done, shall we?
Right, a little video,
prove you're still alive.
Go ahead,
say hello to Michael for me.
Or give him a little wave
or something.
You know, he will kill you.
He won't. Because he loves you.
He cares more about you
than he does himself.
You're his Kryptonite, Diana.
I think you're forgetting
that he doesn't like to lose.
And he certainly doesn't like
being shat upon.
Who does?
I mean, that's why he killed Ronnie.
What?
What, he told you that?
He didn't have to.
I saw him do it.
If you're lying,
I'm going to fucking kill you.
Why would I do that?
You're the one who's sick.
HE BREATHES SHAKILY
Did he see it coming?
She's fucking with you, lad.
Me dad - did he see it coming?
Answer me.
What, did he put up a fight,
you mean?
Well, he was in no fit state,
but I think Michael woke him up.
I think he opened his eyes.
But whether he saw it coming
You've got a fiancee.
You've got a lovely baby.
Don't ruin it.
Nah, I won't ruin it.
Not for me.
DOOR OPENS
You all right, Jay?
HANDLE RATTLES
She can't
..have just walked.
And she can't have just disappeared.
It's not a nice feeling
..is it?
There's nothing
you can do now
..except wait.
PHONE BUZZES
It says,
"Looking for your bird, yeah?"
Jamie.
Don't answer.
In fact, call his mother.
That's not a bad shout.
RINGING TONE
PHONE BUZZES
What do you want, lad?
Did you get me message?
Yeah.
I don't understand it.
I think you do.
Her phone's been ringing
off the hook.
I'm going to send you
a little film on WhatsApp.
A little film? Yeah.
I think you'll find it
interesting.
PHONE CHIMES
FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING
If there'sanything at all
I can do to help
..I will. If I can.
I like her.
But you need to help me.
Oh, not now, Cheryl.
I need to know where Davy is.
Not now, Cheryl!
Now is exactly the time.
Because now you know how I feel.
Where's Davy?
Where is he, Michael?
Spain.
In a hole in the ground?
If Ronnie's in a hole
in the ground, yeah.
SHE SNIFFLES
HE SIGHS
PHONE BUZZES
HE SIGHS
All right, Mum?
What in God's name have you done?!
What in God's name
are you thinking of?!
Put him on speaker, Elaine.
Who told you? Michael told me.
And you have just turned
the fuck-up dial
all the way past 11.
What possessed you?!
Put him on speaker.
No, I haven't. What I've done
is I've made a decision.
Yeah? I've taken control.
It was all settled, Jamie.
No! Fucking no, it wasn't!
This isn't about you.
I'm going to blow him
out the water for good.
Jamie, don't you dare speak to him
until I've spoken to him!
Do you hear me?
Jamie?
He's gone.
Fuck!
RINGING TONE
VOICEMAIL: 'The person you are
calling can't come to the phone'
We'll deal with it.
VOICEMAIL: 'Leave a message
or press one for more options.'
BEEP
Jamie, you cannot do this.
Think back to this morning,
when we had
a clear and profitable way forward.
Call me.
For God's sake, just call me.
Where would he take her?
Melissa?
I don't know.
Where does he hang out?
Where does he feel safe?
I don't know.
Tell you what, if Michael doesn't
kill him, I will.
Bobby, you're not helping.
This entire mess began
with him stealing from his own.
Stop it. Am I right or wrong?
Will you give it a fucking rest?!
I can't do this.
Ronnie knew what he was like.
But I didn't want to believe him.
I'm going to go and check
on Melissa.
RINGING TONE
VOICEMAIL: 'The person
you are calling'
Oh, shit.
INDISTINCT CHATTER
You all right?
This isn't good.
Do you know where he is, Melissa?
I'm asking
..because I entered
into a bit of a deal with him,
just this morning.
Amsterdam?
Why would you do that?
Just when everything was going
back to normal?
Because normal didn't include me.
So it's better just to break
everything?
You know what, Rach? I had you down
as being smarter than that.
Yeah.
Yeah. Me too.
Ricardo.
Banksey.
Banksey, of course.
Do you mind?
Please. Please.
Just a little courtesy call,
really, to make sure
that everything that's supposed
to happen has happened.
Payment-wise.
The last time I checked,
no, no payment.
I see.
I was told otherwise.
Mm, let me check again.
I like this place.
It's nice, yeah.
I like this city.
Yes.
It seems we now have a payment.
Thank you. We have a deal.
Listen, Ricardo, about last night.
It was a bit
..reckless, don't you think?
I could have been anywhere,
I could have pulled the car
over anywhere.
It could have been on me path,
outside my house.
I don't quite understand
what you're playing at.
I have no idea what
you're talking about, Banksey.
But I will say this.
You can pass it on to Michael.
Our business must be binary.
One or zero, black or white.
There can be no room for grey,
for misunderstandings.
What was needed was a reset.
A wake-up call.
Me son, Freddie
..he was in the car with me.
I keep my own children at home
and at the school.
My work is not for them.
We were out getting burgers.
I'm just saying.
Saying what?
HE LAUGHS
Nothing much.
You're right.
I'm glad the payment's gone through.
Enjoy the view.
Hey. What?
He's fucking told me ma.
What? Yeah.
I told him I kidnapped his bird.
First thing he's done
is ring me mum.
Is he taking the piss or what?
That's just pressure, lad -
speaking to Elaine to bend your ear.
Know what I mean?
What did Elaine say?
Doesn't matter what she said!
Keep your mouth shut!
PHONE BUZZING
Here we go. Right on cue.
Hey! You can't back down now,
lad. Eh?
Yes, Michael?
She was starting to think you
didn't love her any more.
What do you want?
I want you gone.
Simple as that.
If you harm a single hair
on her head
..you'll pay.
The lot of yous will pay.
I'll fucking burn your house down
with the lot of yous in it,
and I'll sit off and I'll watch.
So just let her go.
I don't really like the sound
of that, you know.
Don't like the sound of that
at all.
I can't lose again, can I?
You can't win either, lad.
Listen, you're talking too much.
You need to start listening.
All you need to do to save Diana
is top yourself.
And I'm being serious.
A life for a life.
I don't care how you do it.
Just tell me where, tell me when,
and I'll be there, watching.
So, do that one thing,
and I swear to God
I'll let her go without a scratch.
HE BREATHES RAPIDLY
Hey, all the lads fancy her,
you know. Did I say?
Ronnie'd be ashamed of you.
Do you know that?
He WAS ashamed of you.
Look, hang yourself,
cut your wrists,
jump off a building, I'm not arsed -
it's your choice.
Any thoughts?
Nah, it's not going to happen.
Oh, there's a time limit,
by the way.
Let's go for midnight.
She says she watched you
kill me aul' fella.
Is she telling the truth?
She's taking the piss out of you.
Well, I believe her.
So I'm not letting this go.
I'm not doing a thing
..until you put her on the phone.
Right, hang on.
It's for you.
Michael.
'Babe.
'I'm so sorry.
'This shouldn't be happening.'
I'll
I'll agree to whatever he wants,
and we'll get you out of there,
I promise.
No.
'Yeah.'
QUIETLY: He's afraid of you.
And he wants you dead.
So, no.
I'll deal with it.
He's still in the room.
It doesn't matter.
'Do not do anything stupid.
'Do you hear me?'
You do not give in.
I know exactly what I'm going to do.
You need to know
that I'm still pregnant.
Do you hear that?
I'm still pregnant.
It's the truth.
We will be happy.
God, I love you.
JAMIE SNIFFS
JAMIE: 'Congratulations
are in order, I suppose.
'Do you think she's
telling the truth?'
Jamie
..let her go,
and I'll walk away.
I can't do that.
'Jamie, I'll walk.'
You know what to do.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, if you want me
to kill meself
..I'll kill meself.
'Do it.'
OK.
Can I have that water now, please?
Put it down!
Step away from the door, Jamie.
I will use it.
Put it down! Now!
Diana, put the knife down.
You're going nowhere.
Get away from the fucking door!
GUNSHO
Right, drop the knife. Drop it!
Listen, I'm not arsed
OK! OK!
I'm not arsed
you're fucking pregnant!
I'll shoot you!
DOOR OPENS
I told you to get rid of it.
Yeah, I'll do it now, lad.
Taking the piss, you.
DOGS BARK IN DISTANCE
I don't pretend
to know what's going on,
and I'm not asking
for an explanation,
but Diana's not collected her car
or her things,
and Michael came to the house
and took a call from Jamie.
Is something bad going to happen?
No.
Not if we can help it.
Look, I know I'm overthinking it
..and that's why I came in person.
You know, phone records and
Cheryl
..this is going to end well.
That's what we're all working at.
It's nothing we can't sort out.
PHONE BUZZES
It's Michael.
Cheryl, do you mind?
No.
I need the loo anyway.
Put it on speaker.
Michael, go on, lad.
Where are you, Bobby?
And who are you with?
With the family, in Ronnie's.
'Are they all listening?'
We are, Michael.
This is all of our problem.
'The only news I've got
is bad news.'
I've spoke to the boy,
and he's got her.
'And the only way he's going
to give her up
'is if I'm gone.'
Permanently.
Understand me?
Yeah.
Anything your end?
Nothing.
So you haven't spoke to him at all?
Well, he's gone quiet.
But we are trying.
I'm messaging him all the time,
Michael.
Well, he needs to see sense somehow.
We want to help you
in any way we can.
You do know that.
I know, Elaine.
This morning, all I wanted to do
was walk away.
I'm sure you still can.
'That's not what your lad wants.'
So if you could
FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING
..can you send him a message
from me?
We can try.
It's important.
CAR DOOR OPENS
Go on, lad.
Tell him
I've got his baby.
CAR DOOR CLOSES
SHE GASPS
MELISSA: Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
SHE SCREAMS
No!
Elaine! Elaine!
Do you know what you're doing?
Diana's pregnant.
An eye for an eye.
Do you know what happens next?
Find a tall building.
BABY ALFIE GURGLES
PHONE BUZZES
Hello, Jamie.
You better tell me
where you are right now.
I'm doing as I'm told.
I'm at the top
of a very tall building.
Me and Alfie.
And we're just getting ready
to jump.
How the fuck
could you do this, you rat?!
He's only a little baby!
I'll tell you where I am
when I feel like it.
HE BREATHES RAGGEDLY
Well, at least it's something
that he's upset.
ALFIE GURGLES
You'll look after him?
I will.
I promise.
SIRENS WAIL IN DISTANCE
I've got you. Yeah, I've got you.
Suits you.
Hmm.
I'll see you in Spain.
I hope so.
Come here.
Are you warm enough there?
Are you?
Er
PHONE BUZZES
Here we are, Jay.
Me and Alfie on a boys' day out
to the car park.
Top floor, city views.
Do you recognise it?
And, as you can see,
a nice long drop
to the concrete below.
Perfect. Wouldn't you say?
Bring Diana.
We'll be waiting.
SHE SOBS QUIETLY
VEHICLE APPROACHES
Where is he?
In the car. Safe.
You OK, babe?
Yeah. I'm good.
Let's get this embarrassment
over and done with, yeah?
Go on, then, let me see him.
DOOR OPENS
What's going on?
What are you doing here?
It was either me or Melissa.
Melissa would have throttled you.
Diana walks over to me,
then Elaine walks over to you.
Alfie never leaves her.
Yeah?
Right.
Right. Go on.
Right, come on. I love you.
Give me five minutes.
No, we'll get in the car together.
This is what's important.
Don't you ever forget it.
We all got what we want.
Are we all happy, yeah?
Come on.
Know what?
You've got no idea
what you want
Babe. Michael.
..besides attention.
Michael, please. It's over.
Everything you touch
turns to shit,
and you're never to blame.
Hey, come on, let's go.
Come on.
You say it should be over, Elaine.
Should never have fucking started in
the first place.
We were good.
Fucking invisible.
And look at us now.
Two good men down.
Snatching women off the streets
and babies out of their beds.
No, come on, come on.
You know what, lad?
I'm carrying here.
But what I don't have
..what I don't possess
..is the will to use it.
You haven't got the bottle.
Nah, you're not fucking worth it.
Get in the car and fuck off.
Michael, come on.
One last thing, Jay.
Michael
Go and do yourself a favour.
Take a good long look
in the mirror
..and try and find
a little bit of Ronnie.
Oh, are you going to mention
me aul' fella, yeah?
OK.
Jamie! No!
SHE SCREAMS
No! No, no, no! Come on! Get off me.
Diana, get out the fucking way!
Get out the way now!
No. I won't let you do this.
I'm not letting go!
Diana, I'm warning you!
Move out the way now!
I'm warning you!
Jamie, don't you dare!
Diana! Move!
Shoot him and his fucking bird!
I'm not letting go. No!
GUNSHO
SHE GASPS
Michael, the next one's
going through her fucking head!
Stop hiding behind your bird,
you shithouse!
Diana, you have to get off.
Please! No!
He's going to kill the pair of us.
No! Please!
I'm not worth it. Get off me.
Jamie, look at Alfie.
Look at him!
He fucking killed me dad!
He killed your husband.
I know he did!
You tell them.
Yeah, you tell them.
Go on, ask him.
Ask him straight.
Give it to them. Tell them.
Admit it!
Michael, tell them.
Look me in the fucking eyes
and admit it!
It was fucking necessary!
HE PANTS
In the circumstances,
it's what happens, lad.
Ronnie did the same to Davy
because he believed
it was necessary, but
..well, he was wrong.
We were both wrong.
And if I could bring 'em back
..I would
..Jay, I really would.
Jamie
Jamie, look at Alfie.
Jamie.
Ah
Come here, son. Come here.
I'm sorry.
Come here.
It's OK.
ALFIE COOS
Come here. Good boy.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, son.
Elaine, you know I loved him.
You know you killed us both.
Look at me.
You're lucky I have a grandchild.
But know this. I will

Both of you.
This isn't the last of it.

INAUDIBLE CHATTER
DOOR OPENING
All right, Banksey? Yeah.
Didn't sleep much, but
..I'm good.
And your Freddie?
He didn't sleep much either.
He's making out
like he's buzzing, but
..put it this way - you won't
see him getting in a car
for a while.
HE SNIGGERS
Off the scale.
All right, lads?
Bobby.
What do yous want to do
security-wise?
Thought I should ask.
It's only Jamie
we're worried about.
You want to pat him down?
We'd rather tie him up.
Hiya.
Bobby's inside.
Says we're good to go.
ELAINE: Who else is there?
Michael, Banksey, Princess Diana
and Cheryl, apparently.
Cheryl?
Any idea what he wants to say?
No. Not at all.
MELISSA: This looks nice.
Has he never taken you here?
Jamie can't walk past a Nando's.
We're like one
big happy family, aren't we?
All that's missing is
a Christmas dinner.
OK, I'll just say it, shall I?
The reason why we're all here -
it's simple and straightforward.
I want out.
I want to walk away.
All this shit that's happened
..and I'm looking at you, Jay
..it's gone.
It's in the past.
But it's taken
all this shit to happen
for me to realise
that I can't do it any more.
I don't want to.
Walk away from what, Michael?
Walk away how?
Rach, let the man explain.
I'm asking a question, that's all.
She's right. Jamie
What?
As a group, we've got
enough money in the bank
to pay for 50 keys.
And now we've got a shipment
of 50 keys arriving tomorrow,
which needs paying for today.
Arriving from where?
Ricardo - the Amigos.
I'm proposing
..that Banksey and you, Bobby,
take the delivery.
Yous take control.
Yous cut it how you like,
you sell it,
usual lines, our lines,
which are now your lines.
And then, well,
yous are back in the game.
What, you'd expect us
to believe that?
I could have
fucking buried you, lad.
But I didn't.
Well, you did kill me aul' fella -
sorry to keep bringing it up.
Ronnie was a grass.
I think it might have been me
who killed him.
But you never - he did.
Listen, I don't mean
to bad-mouth your father
..but how the fuck do I know
he didn't snitch on me,
that it weren't him
who got me banged up?
Cost me a marriage,
cost Freddie a mother.
Why would he do that?
Because he was a fucking grass, lad.
Well, all of this is besides
the point.
And disrespectful
to the man who got us here.
So can we stop
trash-talking Ronnie
..and try to look to the future?
This shipment is defo happening?
It's happening.
Providing we pay Ricardo today.
What if we don't?
BANKSEY: We'd be stupid not to.
It's a no-brainer.
Well, let's assume we're all stupid.
What will the Amigo do if we don't?
He won't be very happy,
but he'll still be
a Colombian drug dealer.
HE SCOFFS
Half your life, Michael,
and you believe
you can just walk away?
It's what he wants.
You've known him
for 18 months, hon.
I've known him for 18 years.
This game's addictive.
I've had enough.
You placed the fucking order, lad.
You couldn't be more involved.
And why did I need
to place that order, Jay?
Why Bobby and Banksey?
It's not in your gift
to say who does what.
Babe, we're a team, me and you.
Jamie's family. He's in.
They know the lines.
The grafters know them.
Continuity.
I think it's a good idea.
And Michael thinks that
Cheryl should get a lump sum.
Yeah, which is only fair.
100K. That's about 3%
of your profit.
Barring some Davy questions -
that's my future.
Well, it's early days, Cheryl,
but that seems reasonable.
Yeah.
BANKSEY: Look, we can't be arseholes
about this.
It's on a plate.
Every single one of us
benefits from this,
and it brings an end
to the chaos.
Bobby?
Agreed.
100%.
What do you say, Elaine?
Shall we raise our glasses?
I think we've got to.
To the future.
ALL: To the future.
Are you OK? Yeah.
Don't believe a word he says.
No, don't. What? Just don't.
Look, you got away with it once,
and then we got away with it.
I don't want any trouble.
I don't want any guns.
Don't.
I need the loo.
Don't do anything until we talk.
Happy or sad, Jay?
Happy enough if we're getting
rid of soft lad.
It's going to work, you know.
It's a new era.
See you at the house, then?
Yeah. We'll talk.
We will.
Try not to fuck it up.
Uh, Cheryl
..I'll call and collect my stuff
in about an hour or so.
OK, hon. I'll be in.
Thank you.
I'll see you in a bit.
You know, I believe you, Michael.
Don't go making a fool of me.
Do it.
I will.
We will.
Good luck.
DIANA LAUGHS
Thanks.
BANKSEY: What now?
Get that money paid,
and that's it.
Bobby Duffy can do that.
He'll do that.
Right.
I'll speak to Ricardo,
let him know what's happening.
Tell him what he did
was fucking naughty.
It could have gone off
at any time.
Yeah, but it didn't.
That's not the point.
I know, but deal with it, lad,
because you've got to deal with him.
Right. See you later.
You will.
I can't wait.
For what?
Happy Town.
Right.
I'll see you later.
PHONE BUZZES
Tell me dad I'll be back
in a minute. All right, lad.
Morning, mate.
You won't believe
what's happening here.
What's that?
I'm in the middle of getting
fucking shafted.
By who?
Where are you now?
At me aul' fella's garage - why?
I need you to do something.
RACHEL: He might walk away,
but it'll be a short walk.
He'll be back -
you can count on it.
This is a good move for us, babe.
You should message Ricardo
as soon as we get back.
I will.
We're looking at a two-mil
profit here. At least.
It's still Michael's deal, though.
What are your thoughts?
It's a load of bollocks.
He won't walk away forever.
I said the same to Bobby.
And to be honest, he's got
no right to push me out.
Or you.
What do you think?
I'm not going back
to being a book-keeper.
Look, is there distance
between us and the Amigos?
Michael's made this deal.
Does that mean we've made a deal?
No. When we paid the debt,
we said he's on his own,
he's separate. So it's his tab?
I'd say so, yeah.
Why don't we drop a bomb, then?
BOBBY: Rach, shall we get this done?
Me and you?
Rach?
Yeah, in a minute.
Look, I'm sending you a sort code
and account number now.

so it's a bargain.
And that's all we spend
till we know it's good,
and then we meet them.
We meet them?

Oh, let's get this done, shall we?
Right, a little video,

Go ahead,
say hello to Michael for me.
Or give him a little wave
or something.
You know, he will kill you.
He won't. Because he loves you.
He cares more about you
than he does himself.
You're his Kryptonite, Diana.
I think you're forgetting
that he doesn't like to lose.
And he certainly doesn't like
being shat upon.
Who does?
I mean, that's why he killed Ronnie.
What?
What, he told you that?
He didn't have to.
I saw him do it.
If you're lying,
I'm going to fucking kill you.
Why would I do that?
You're the one who's sick.
HE BREATHES SHAKILY
Did he see it coming?
She's fucking with you, lad.
Me dad - did he see it coming?
Answer me.
What, did he put up a fight,
you mean?
Well, he was in no fit state,
but I think Michael woke him up.

just this morning.

Why would you do that?
Just when everything was going
back to normal?
Because normal didn't include me.
So it's better just to break
everything?
You know what, Rach? I had you down
as being smarter than that.
Yeah.
Yeah. Me too.
Ricardo.
Banksey.
Banksey, of course.
Do you mind?
Please. Please.
Just a little courtesy call,
really, to make sure
that everything that's supposed
to happen has happened.
Payment-wise.
The last time I checked,
no, no payment.
I see.
I was told otherwise.
Mm, let me check again.
I like this place.
It's nice, yeah.
I like this city.
Yes.
It seems we now have a payment.
Thank you. We have a deal.
Listen, Ricardo, about last night.
It was a bit
..reckless, don't you think?
I could have been anywhere,
I could have pulled the car
over anywhere.
It could have been on me path,
outside my house.
I don't quite understand
what you're playing at.
I have no idea what
you're talking about, Banksey.
But I will say this.
You can pass it on to Michael.
Our business must be binary.
One or zero, black or white.
There can be no room for grey,
for misunderstandings.
What was needed was a reset.
A wake-up call.
Me son, Freddie
..he was in the car with me.
I keep my own children at home
and at the school.
My work is not for them.
We were out getting burgers.
I'm just saying.
Saying what?
HE LAUGHS
Nothing much.
You're right.
I'm glad the payment's gone through.
Enjoy the view.
Hey. What?
He's fucking told me ma.
What? Yeah.
I told him I kidnapped his bird.
First thing he's done
is ring me mum.
Is he taking the piss or what?
That's just pressure, lad -
speaking to Elaine to bend your ear.
Know what I mean?
What did Elaine say?
Doesn't matter what she said!
Keep your mouth shut!

Hey! You can't back down now,
lad. Eh?
Yes, Michael?
She was starting to think you
didn't love her any more.
What do you want?
I want you gone.
Simple as that.
If you harm a single hair
on her head
..you'll pay.
The lot of yous will pay.
I'll fucking burn your house down
with the lot of yous in it,
and I'll sit off and I'll watch.
So just let her go.
I don't really like the sound
of that, you know.
Don't like the sound of that
at all.
I can't lose again, can I?
You can't win either, lad.
Listen, you're talking too much.
You need to start listening.
All you need to do to save Diana
is top yourself.
And I'm being serious.
A life for a life.
I don't care how you do it.
Just tell me where, tell me when,
and I'll be there, watching.
So, do that one thing,
and I swear to God
I'll let her go without a scratch.

Hey, all the lads fancy her,
you know. Did I say?
Ronnie'd be ashamed of you.
Do you know that?
He WAS ashamed of you.

jump off a building, I'm not arsed -
it's your choice.
Any thoughts?
Nah, it's not going to happen.
Oh, there's a time limit,

Let's go for midnight.

kill me aul' fella.

It doesn't matter.
'Do not do anything stupid.
'Do you hear me?'
You do not give in.

I'm at the top
of a very tall building.
Me and Alfie.
And we're just getting ready
to jump.
How the fuck
could you do this, you rat?!
He's only a little baby!
I'll tell you where I am
when I feel like it.
HE BREATHES RAGGEDLY
Well, at least it's something
that he's upset.
ALFIE GURGLES
You'll look after him?
I will.
I promise.
SIRENS WAIL IN DISTANCE
I've got you. Yeah, I've got you.
Suits you.
Hmm.
I'll see you in Spain.
I hope so.
Come here.
Are you warm enough there?
Are you?
Er
PHONE BUZZES
Here we are, Jay.
Me and Alfie on a boys' day out
to the car park.
Top floor, city views.
Do you recognise it?
And, as you can see,
a nice long drop
to the concrete below.
Perfect. Wouldn't you say?
Bring Diana.
We'll be waiting.
SHE SOBS QUIETLY
VEHICLE APPROACHES
Where is he?
In the car. Safe.
You OK, babe?
Yeah. I'm good.
Let's get this embarrassment
over and done with, yeah?
Go on, then, let me see him.
DOOR OPENS
What's going on?
What are you doing here?
It was either me or Melissa.
Melissa would have throttled you.
Diana walks over to me,
then Elaine walks over to you.
Alfie never leaves her.
Yeah?
Right.
Right. Go on.
Right, come on. I love you.
Give me five minutes.
No, we'll get in the car together.
This is what's important.
Don't you ever forget it.
We all got what we want.
Are we all happy, yeah?
Come on.
Know what?
You've got no idea
what you want
Babe. Michael.
..besides attention.
Michael, please. It's over.
Everything you touch
turns to shit,
and you're never to blame.
Hey, come on, let's go.
Come on.
You say it should be over, Elaine.
Should never have fucking started in
the first place.
We were good.
Fucking invisible.
And look at us now.
Two good men down.
Snatching women off the streets
and babies out of their beds.
No, come on, come on.
You know what, lad?
I'm carrying here.
But what I don't have
..what I don't possess
..is the will to use it.
You haven't got the bottle.
Nah, you're not fucking worth it.
Get in the car and fuck off.
Michael, come on.
One last thing, Jay.
Michael
Go and do yourself a favour.
Take a good long look
in the mirror
..and try and find
a little bit of Ronnie.
Oh, are you going to mention
me aul' fella, yeah?
OK.
Jamie! No!
SHE SCREAMS
No! No, no, no! Come on! Get off me.
Diana, get out the fucking way!
Get out the way now!
No. I won't let you do this.
I'm not letting go!
Diana, I'm warning you!
Move out the way now!
I'm warning you!
Jamie, don't you dare!
Diana! Move!
Shoot him and his fucking bird!
I'm not letting go. No!
GUNSHO
SHE GASPS
Michael, the next one's
going through her fucking head!
Stop hiding behind your bird,
you shithouse!
Diana, you have to get off.
Please! No!
He's going to kill the pair of us.
No! Please!
I'm not worth it. Get off me.
Jamie, look at Alfie.
Look at him!
He fucking killed me dad!
He killed your husband.
I know he did!
You tell them.
Yeah, you tell them.
Go on, ask him.
Ask him straight.
Give it to them. Tell them.
Admit it!
Michael, tell them.
Look me in the fucking eyes
and admit it!
It was fucking necessary!
HE PANTS
In the circumstances,
it's what happens, lad.
Ronnie did the same to Davy
because he believed
it was necessary, but
..well, he was wrong.
We were both wrong.
And if I could bring 'em back
..I would
..Jay, I really would.
Jamie
Jamie, look at Alfie.
Jamie.
Ah
Come here, son. Come here.
I'm sorry.
Come here.
It's OK.
ALFIE COOS
Come here. Good boy.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, son.
Elaine, you know I loved him.
You know you killed us both.
Look at me.
You're lucky I have a grandchild.
But know this. I will
come to despise you, Michael.
Both of you.
This isn't the last of it.
That's all I'm saying.
