Naked Cult

This programme contains
very strong language
from the outset and throughout.
OK, I've got it he's a Rufus.
Can't call him Rufus,
it's a dick's name.
Rufus, they have fucking kayaks,
and they have sex to jazz and that.
I shagged the life out of a Rufus once,
and he had a National Trust pass.
It was a desperate scenario.
Y'know I don't think you should
be giving him a name, now.
Because you're gonna have
to be giving him away?
I'm terribly attached to the bastard.
Like this knob head here,
that never puts his phone down.
I'm just checking
the baby monitor, alright,
because last time Liz babysit Sunny
she let him watch the Exorcist!
- She is fucking
- He was asleep though!
- It all goes in Sugar. Via osmosis.
- I've got osmosis with him.
I wanna protect him
from the awfulness in this world,
it can be a shocking place out there.
- It is, it is bad
- Hello everybody!
- Oh my fucking
- Wow. (OVERLAPPING CHATTER)
BARRETT STRONG: Money ♪
The best things in life are free
But you can give them
to the birds and bees
I need money ♪
TOMMO: Free fucking cocktails?
Clive?
Cheating fucking bastard
wanker dickhead!
Clive! Clifford!
Where is he? Fucking hell.
Sorry mate, Clive! Clifford!
Why you here, eh?
Why aren't you at the Rat & Cutter?
Sorry Tommo, this place is just
a bit classier, innit?
Class-Classier?
Into classy now, are ya?
- They don't water down their drinks!
- Water down?!
Course they fucking water
Everyone waters down the drink.
- Hmm.
- See?
Bloody hell.
Look, Clive, you know full well,
that me son's invested in me club.
I need it to thrive, Clive!
Come on, sweetheart. This place will
be shut down in a couple of weeks.
- Er, actually we won't!
- So, you're the owner then are ya?
I am. I am, yeah.
And you run that grotty little
Uh, what's it called?
Rat and Cutter. You know full well.
It's two streets down, mate.
That's the bastard. So, what you
doing? Checking out the competition?
No. I-I was passing by,
and I popped in for a piss.
Treat yourself, have a shit while
you're here. There'll be a queue.
Only been open a couple of weeks
and we're already scouting
for a second location.
- Oh, are ya?
- You're not selling are ya?
Well, that'd be handy for me.
It's an extra quid
in a taxi to get here.
No, my club is not for sale.
Until I put you out of business,
and then you won't have a choice.
(LAUGHS)
(LAUGHS SARCASTICALLY)
Fucking say it one more time,
mate, go on I dare
Uh, sorry.
Nigel, I'm getting a bit bored.
Who the fuck is Nigel? Alright!
- Jesus Chri
- Nice to meet ya.
(DRINK SPILLS)
Sorry. Get off me ya dickhead!
Jesus Christ. What they
paying you in? Fucking steroids?!
Honestly! D-D-Don't go in there!
No, they-they're doing fucking
cock fighting in the basement!
Not the good kind neither.
And-And-And
They're fucking selling kids.
Little tiny Sri Lankan orphans.
Alright, dickhead!
Go on, fuck off
Did you forget something
this morning, Gid?
Oh God, yeah!
Silly me. My fungal cream.
I'll go get it from the
(OVERLAPPING SHOUTS)
Woah, woah, woah.
She just means your fucking gear,
man. Where are all your clothes?
Oh, no, no, no,
this is intentional, Vinnie.
Right.
We are eschewing the trappings
of late stage capitalist society.
And naturism, i.e,
the practice of non-sexual nudity,
is an important tenant in the quest
to live a more authentic life.
So, can I just check, is this
this is like a full-time
situation now, in't it?
It's an integral part
of the quest, Vin.
What if you go to the dentist,
right? And he drops his drill?
- Yes?
- He's gotta bend down,
he comes eye to eye with your bellend.
No, lads. You're concentrating
on the wrong things.
Forget about clothes,
focus on the freedom.
Gideon, your freedom's
winking at me now, love!
Sorry, Carol. (CLEARS THROAT)
We are eschewing late stage capitalism-
Yeah, it's a good speech,
but you keep saying 'we'.
Who are these 'we' people?
Jon and Judith and everyone else.
And Jon and Judith are?
- Our spiritual guides.
- I'm-I'm lost now.
You see, we live in a big community.
Oh, it's so lovely, Vinnie.
We have no possessions, no phones,
no internet, no underpants.
THE DELFONICS: Didn't I ♪
Hans, dear boy!
- How the devil are you?
- Sehr gut, and you?
Yeah, bloody never sehr gut-ter!
Yeah, the club's so busy in fact
I had to pop out for a quick breather.
- Oh, that's fantastic, Dad!
- There you are!
- I need a favour.
- Sorry, Hans.
It's a very demanding customer.
I'll have to go.
Listen, whatever it is,
the answer is a resounding fuck no.
I'm not doing you
any more favours, mate.
Oi, hang on a minute. When have
you ever done a favour for me?
You ungrateful cunt. How's about
lending you my beard trimmer. Eh?
- Oh, this again.
- Yes, this again.
Yeah, under the strict proviso
that you'll not use it
on your scrotal regions.
And what did you do Jim?
- What did you Go on, eh?
- Shaved my ballbag beard.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dirty little old
man pubes, gumming up the mechanism.
Listen right,
my nephew's staying with me
Didn't know you had a nephew.
There's lots you don't know about me,
- I'm an enigma.
- You're not an enigma, Jim,
you're just a man who smells
very strongly of corned beef.
Look, he's lost his job
and his self respect.
- Stop following me.
- I thought it could be
mutually beneficial,
I help snap him out of his funk
and he helps me around the farm.
But he needs a proper job,
and that's where you come in.
Oi, soppy cunt!
Get over here and meet your new boss!
(QUIETLY) Fucking hell mate.
Hang on, is that who I think it is?
(MELLOW, SENSUAL MUSIC)
(MOANING)
(PHONE RINGING)
Who's that interrupting
my decompression time, Carlos?
It says 'MC Cann'.
Is it a rapper?
MC Cann?
Terence McCann. Shit!
From what I hear
You've moved in on Manolito's
operation, and into his home!
You're sleeping in his fucking bed!
Beds plural, we don't share.
Let's cut the shit.
You killed him, and now
you're tryna take over his turf.
- Am I fucking warm?
- Warmer than he is.
We have weed to sell, Mr McCann.
- Lots of it.
- I don't do business with nobodies.
I think you're forgetting that
you're stuck in a tiny box
while we're here, in a mansion.
You're still nobodies.
A whole family of
useless fucking scumbags.
Now, you listen to me-
No, you fucking listen!
If you want me to even contemplate
allowing you to sell drugs for me,
you're gonna need to understand
who's in charge.
And I want my statue back.
What statue?
The one I sent Manolito!
The one that's very
fucking precious to me!
(DISCONNECT TONE)
What statue?
(SHOUTS) What fucking statue?!
I don't know, Donna.
Well, fucking find out!
Giddy?
(SLOT MACHINE BEEPING)
- Yeah?
- Can I be honest with you, sweetheart?
Yeah, what?
I'm worried about you a little bit.
Oh, Vinnie.
I've told you, don't worry,
it's not a cult I've joined.
We're a community.
We're all people who are
lost somehow.
After Mum died,
I just stayed in bed all day
eating biscuits,
and that's not a good place to be.
And you end up covered in crumbs.
Dude, why couldn't you have rang me!
Oh, Vinnie, you're me first friend,
and you'll always be me best friend.
You and the gang were amazing
with mum's funeral and all,
but you had to go back to
your own lives, you had to.
And then I were just
stuck on me own with Mr Mittens.
I got really down, Vin.
But then I met John and Judith
and rest of' gang,
and we just have a brilliant time.
We do loads of great activities.
We meditate together.
They even had me playing
the didgeridoo! (CHUCKLES)
Well, till I hyperventilated and
had to put me head between me knees.
Did they let you
put your pants on for that?
(CHUCKLES)
Are they Are they nice to you?
- Jon and Judith?
- Oh, they're the best.
They're so wise,
and kind, and protective.
Protective, hey?
Yeah. I mean they do have
a lot of rules.
I shouldn't really be in here.
I told them I was just popping into town
to get my fungal cream, but
I'm really glad I did.
It's good to see you, Vin.
It's fucking good to see you too, dude.
Every last bit of you, you bugger.
(QUIETLY) Alright, I mean
..I've got to go
to Dr Chris in the morning.
Can we all meet at that 'commune' thing
and try and figure out what's what?
He's vulnerable in't he?!
(OVERLAPPING CHATTER)
Just to make sure he is alright.
TOMMO: Jim, why the fuck
did you never tell me
you were related to an actual
fucking celebrity!!
Celebrity is going a bit far.
Hey dickhead, no, no, this is S-Bomb!
The arcade dancing kid!
BTB British champ!
What the fuck is 'BTB'?
- Beat that Beat.
- Beat that Beat.
Oh, that gamey thing
you used to mince around on.
When this was an arcade.
It wasn't a game, it was
a competitive dance simulator.
(LAUGHS) You tell him S-Bomb.
- Actually it's just Scott these days.
- Right
- I'm tryna picture it how it was before.
- Alright, yeah.
I think all the game machines
were across here.
And the grabbers, they were over there.
They still are on a good night.
And the air hockey table was here.
No, here.
Which means my machine were
(ANGELIC MUSIC)
And I were over there,
in the change booth,
uh, where the bar area is now.
What? You used to work here,
back in the day?
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
We never actually met, but, uh,
I were a big fan. You know,
every fucker were. Jesus Christ.
I remember the first time I ever
saw you in action. Fucking hell.
You were like a young John Travolta
if Travolta were from Hawley and
could dance in a tiny little square.
(SHOES SQUEAKING)
(UPBEAT DANCE MUSIC)
While other lads were out
fingering anything that moved
and nicking pick n' mix,
this one were in here,
putting in some serious graft
to overcome the odds
and become an actual fucking legend!
(MUSIC FADES)
Almost a legend.
So, you're gonna fucking
hire him then, or what?
You bet your nasty, shaved,
little scrotum I am, Jimothy!
Because you sir,
are exactly what this place needs.
(CHUCKLES)
(PHONE CHIMES)
Bollocks. Sandwich Man's
cancelling on me again.
I didn't know we were getting food,
I'd have ordered a panini!
- Can I have a panini
- No, no, not food Cardi!
The Sandwich man,
the lad I've been dating.
He's been off with me ever since
I left the used condom
in his parents' bedroom.
What is wrong with me, like?
Why can't I keep a fella?
- There's nothing wrong with you.
- Yeah, it's his loss.
Are we even sure this is
the r-r-right house?
(CHUCKLES) Yeah. I'd say so.
Fuck this lads,
I'm not staying in here forever!
- What're you doing?
- Gid's one of us.
I'm gonna go in undercover,
to see if they're
ripping him off or not, yeah?
Avert your eyes.
NANCY SINATRA:
These Boots Are Made For Walkin' ♪
A-ha-ha!
There he is. The North's answer
to Michael Jackson.
Except without the kids n' that.
- You ready for your big day?
- Oh, I guess so.
But, I should probably flag that I've
never actually pulled a pint before.
No, you dickhead,
you're gonna be dancing!
Ha-ha! Get that.
Right, um you want me to
Do what you do best, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Listen,
I got in touch with the newspapers,
and they were reluctant at first,
but I drew them in
with the human interest angle,
you know.
'A moonwalk down memory lane',
all that gubbings.
Hey, come right this way.
How's about this?
There she blows! (CHUCKLES)
Your old flame.
Hey, it cost a bit extra
for the overnight delivery,
but, uh, I think it's worth it,
you know?
You've got to speculate to
whatever the fuck it is.
Tommo. You don't understand, I-I
I don't dance anymore.
Right, well, I say you've about two
and a half hours to get your eye in.
- So, bon chance.
- (STUTTERING) No, I-I'm not saying
I can't dance, I'm saying I don't.
I've retired.
(SPLUTTERING)
It's your fucking job, mate, so.
(CHUCKLES)
I'm really sorry.
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Dickhead!
(DOOR SLAMS)
What the fuck am I supposed
to do with a dance machine?!
Well, this is a bit of a surprise, Ash.
I mean, yesterday at the pub
it sounded like
you all thought that
this place was some sort of scam.
Scam? Wha-a-a-t? No, no, no.
I was very taken
by everything you said.
Thought it was very profound, you know?
Who's this, Gideon?
Oh, hello Judith, John.
This is Ashley.
I bumped into him yesterday,
- while I was having a bee-eer-big think.
- Think.
- On the way to the chemist.
- Chemist.
About the endless and exhausting
grind for material wealth
- and possessions.
- Mm, yeah.
Yeah, he told me all about it,
and I reckoned, you know,
I should probably come down here myself
and investigate integrate.
- How lovely.
- Yeah.
Congratulations on
taking the first step
- towards liberation of the soul.
- Soul.
We're huggers, is that OK?
(CHUCKLES)
There is no need for th-
Oh!
OK. Loads. Loads.
That's that done.
- Did you see it, Jon?
- Oh. The second he walked in.
- What? His massive penis?
- No, Gideon.
- His aura.
- Oh!
You have a pink aura, Ashley.
Really, yeah? (CHUCKLES)
Is that Is that good?
Oh, it's beautiful.
It means you're a caring,
compassionate person.
Hey, he is.
I'm so glad you found us, Ashley.
You belong here
- I can feel it.
- Oh
Shall we show you around
our little sanctuary?
Yes. Now!
- And then another hug.
- Yeah. (ALL CHUCKLE)
(GENTLE GUITAR STRUMMING)
We've tried to create a haven.
A place where people can strip away
the pressures of the outside world
..expose themselves to a more
natural way of being.
Careful with the baking though Ash,
Maria burnt her areola on a muffin tin.
Guys, if you don't mind me asking,
out of interest,
how do you pay for all this?
Well, we're a family,
families help each other.
Huh.
This is our table of transcendence.
These are some of
the people we've helped.
Wow. They look ever so happy.
- Happy and thriving.
- I can see that, yeah.
(DISTANT GONG)
Time for a group session.
Why don't you join us?
Yeah, join us Ash.
Yes Ashley, join us.
Oh
JIM: (DISTANT)
Oi, twat, he doesn't wanna see ya!
He is getting on
that machine and dancing,
if I have to tie strings to his
limbs and go full fucking Geppetto!
Right you, come on, sweetheart.
What? I told you I don't dance anymore.
Mate, come on it's a piece of piss.
Just get on the machine
and move your limbs
to the fucking stupid lights
and that, you know.
Well, if it's so easy,
why don't you just do it?!
Look I'll be honest with ya, right?
(CLEARS THROAT)
I really fucking need this.
So, hows about for old time sake,
- one last dance? Yeah, come on.
- No, it's not happening.
Fuck!
- That's rude.
- Jesus!
You have screwed me right over.
Sweetheart, yeah. I'm meant
to have a full house tonight.
Full of paying customers.
First time in weeks!
I might as well just tie
a big fucking bow around the place
and hand the keys to
that smug, weasel-faced cunt!
(SCREAMS)
Here, I've got some sheep to castrate.
Give me a shout if you need anything.
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
Look I know you're disappointed, but
I haven't danced in nearly ten years.
Not even a toe tap.
And what, ya really think people
will just turn up to watch me?
I don't fucking know.
But it were worth a try, weren't it.
I mean fucking hell,
I've tried every else, believe me.
You were my last go.
You know, last stab
at the nostalgia crowd.
All the patrons have been drawn away
to a pretentious new gaff
- with a fucking prick of an owner.
- Yeah. The smugly weasel-faced cunt?
Who apparently he has a bottomless
budget but no fucking taste, so.
I can't compete can I?
Sounds like Slick Sam.
- Hm?
- Oh, he's this end of level boss,
on BTB, when you play the story mode.
He was a right weasel too.
I mean, it took me ages to figure out
how to defeat him. But when you do,
it's great cause this big bucket
of manure gets dumped over his head
and all his little minions
scurry away screaming, it's mint.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDING)
Why you looking at me like that?
That's That's it, innit?
What?
I don't need
to win the patrons back over,
I just need to scare them off
from his place.
I need to defeat Slick Sam!
(LAUGHS)
(DOG BARKING)
- So, you got a dog.
- Oh, for fuck's sake.
If, honestly, that's the level
of intuition I'm dealing with,
then it's no wonder
my head's fucked, is it?
You know they lick
their own arseholes, don't you?
You've done fucking worse. Haven't ya?
- Dirty bastard.
- What have you named him?
- I haven't yet.
- Oh, that's interesting.
- That's not interesting, is it?
- Maybe subconsciously,
- you don't really believe he's yours.
- That is quite interesting actually.
You like spending time with him,
he's always pleased to see you
and you have this unspoken,
cosmic connection, right?
Why don't you just call him Dylan?
Dylan.
See, nothing wrong with my intuition.
Ashley, this is 'Bag of Emotions'.
You just pick out an emotion
and share a time
when you've felt that way.
Maria would you care to start?
(GENTLE GONG)
'Joyous'. Easy.
I feel this way every time
I wake up here.
Aw!
(APPLAUSE)
Maria, you're so clever.
Thank you.
Ashley, why don't you have a go?
It's a bit of fun, go on do one.
You'll enjoy it.
(GENTLE GONG)
- Since I'm here, you know.
- Yeah.
'Misunderstood'.
Yeah, I can probably think of
a couple of times when, uh
when I was misunderstood.
(DRAMATIC GUITAR MUSIC)
He's judging me like I did it
on purpose! Like, it was one moment.
If you cut me, do I not bleed?
That's a very vulnerable thing
to be going through.
Especially from your boyfriend.
"Oh, there goes Ashley, big lug,
he doesn't have any emotions."
I deserve to be loved,
just like anyone else, you know.
A few year ago
Oh, we see you, Ashley.
We see you.
And you're beautiful, inside
and out.
Yeah?
(APPLAUSE)
Go Ashley.
Let's see what I get next,
- maybe bravery!
- No! No no.
Other people need a go.
Right, I'll just pass it on.
Really good Ash. I'm dead proud of you.
CARDI: I think they've rumbled Ash.
I'm sure he'll be fine.
- I should go in after him.
- Don't be daft!
Jesus like the feckin' woman
eatin' the spider!
Who's eating spiders?
The woman that eats the fuckin' spider,
and then they have to send
a feckin' bird in after that.
- Then a feckin' dog get's sent in.
- It's a cat after the bird, innit?
Doesn't matter, it's fuckin' madness.
What you on about, going in there,
if front of all them nudey people?
You won't even take
your fucking top off at the beach!
Well, people change, Carol.
I need to save my friend's life.
If I've been over an hour, send JJ in.
- Yeah, that's not happening.
- For fuck's sake
Gideon!
We started with a bunch,
now there's two left!
I'm sorry, Jon,
they're just so sweet and juicy!
Jon, how's my posture?
How's my posture, Jon?
- You're a natural, Ashley.
- Sorry to interrupt.
Ashley, this chap says
he's a friend of yours?
Oh right, does he?
Cardi! Oh, Cardi!
Judith, sorry,
Cardi was present when
Gideon spoke so eloquently,
about the commune in the pub
(SMACKS)..lic chemist,
the public chemist.
Cardi's a very interesting name.
Yeah, my name's actually L-Lesley.
Oh, so Cardi's your surname then?
No, no, my surname's, um, Tit.
Lunch is ready.
(GONG)
- (WHISPERS) What are you doing?
- I'm
Got to hand it to Gideon,
this is the first time we've ever
had two walk-ins on the same day!
Oh, Jon, you cheeky boy.
- Oh, Ashley.
- Yeah?
Why don't you show Lesley round?
Oh, a wonderful idea, Judith.
Thank you. Mamaste.
Ma Na Nam-a-ste.
- What are you doing?
- You've been ages!
I'm trying to win them over.
It's been going well, actually.
They painted my portrait, invited me
to a badminton tournament.
This place is the real deal right?
If you strip it all back,
take your clothes off, what's left
underneath is who you really are.
- And who I am is popular.
- They could be brainwashing you.
They're not, I'm trying to tell you!
It's not a scam.
It's a solace of simplicity
in a complicated world.
Alright, if it's not a scam,
then wh-why are you still here?
- I told you about the badminton
- No, I'm talking about Gideon?
- He doesn't want to play.
- Dude
Dude, we're meant to be
checking he's alright?
He is alright, Cardi.
You can see, he's fine, he's happy.
- He's thriving
- Then let's get out of here!
No! If you wanna go, you can.
We're having a roast for lunch.
Maria's Yorkshire puds,
they're supposed to be sensational.

Shit.
Willow?

Fuck!
What kind of shite are you after?
What have you got
a choice of poo, have you?!
You're in my world now, pal.
Is it for horticulture or pleasure?
Jim you mad old bastard,
it's for revenge, love.
I'm gonna spray
my competitor's bar with faeces,
and drive the patrons back to the

In that case, you want fox.
- Right.
- Right.
Fucking stinks to high heaven

to get out of pleather.
- Lovely!
- Now, I'd go for a
seven to three, shit to piss ratio,
for optimum spray consistency.
- Very specific, I like it.
- I get it on the dark web.
Jim, I've gotta ask, love,
why are you stock piling fox shit?
There's a gang of feral cats that
roam these fucking hills at night.
They're fucking vermin.
Fox shite's the only thing
that scares 'em off.
- What? You don't like cats?
- No, I don't!
- Why?
- Because I'm not an Egyptian,
a witch, or a fucking spinster!

He's everything to me. I

It is.
- Do you want to come in for a cuppa?
- I can't.
One of my mate's has joined

Rest of 'em have gone in to help
Thanks for the offer.
You look after him now.
Just keep your bloody eye on him
They don't always come back, do they?
Come on. Give us a love.
Nice to meet you, man.

Well, you get your head back in
the game. You're here for Gideon,
- not to fill your fucking stomach!
- Alright, can you not snap at me!
Is that mint? I said
I said I'd get some mint.
That's a tree, Cardi.
- But is it a mint tree?
- This is mint here. I think!
Yeah!
- There you go.
- Now, get back in there
- and figure the fuck out what's going on!
- Alright.
(KEYBOARD CLICKING)
You alright, Donna?
Vincent.
(CLEARS THROAT) What's going on?
Where is it?
Where's what?
McCann sent a little
terracotta figurine here.
- Worth 100,000 euro.
- You signed for it.
I didn't fucking sign for it.
I'd have remembered
if I'd have signed for it.
I believe that is your tattoo, Vincent.
Shit!
Fucking should've worn gloves.
Alright, I signed for it.
We had an accident.
Smashed the shit out of the bastard.
And we are very sorry. Extremely!
When McCann finds out
Yeah?
you'll be the one having
the fucking accident.
Donna, why don't you and I go
and have a private little chinwag.
Vincent, be a good boy and stay put.
Oh, God. I dunno how much longer
I can take this smell. (GAGS)
When his cleaners fuck off,
we'll get in there and redecorate
the whole place
in a fetching shade of brown.
Well, thanks for letting me
stick around.
I've been going out of my head
stuck in that house.
Jim said you lost your job, so.
Yeah.
I was working at a factory,
just punching holes in doors.
Not a lot of transferable skills
from dancing, I suppose.
Well, you'd be surprised actually.
When I concentrate,
I can go into this, sort of, zone.
It's like this hyperfocus and
and, you know, the world
just kind of narrows.
Hey, I've not told you this.
Do you know, I were on
national news cos of you?
- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They sent a crew down
when you did championships
in Las Vegas.
It were a big crowd. You can only
see top of my head.
- Right.
- Due to my, uh, diminutive statue.
But, you know, thankfully,
I do have a very distinctive crown.
Then, I went and lost in the final.
One false move,
and our dream were over.
What is that why you retired?
You came second in the fucking world!
Second place is just first loser
in arcade dancing, that's
Hey, hey, hey, hey dickhead. Hey!
If Rocky Balboa had thrown in the towel
after he got knocked out once,
there'd be no second Rocky film,
and that'd be a fucking cinematic
travesty, mate! Honest to God.
I swear down, if you were my kid,
I wouldn't let you waste your
talent like that. No way.
Right, cos you're an expert on
parenting, are you?
Steady on now.
Uncle Jim said
you didn't even know you had a son.
Yeah, well I do now, don't I?
Right? And I'm here,
like any good Dad,
armed with a vat of liquid fox shite
- ready to make sure I never fail him again!
- Fuck sake.
Oh, hello, they're on the move.
Get ready, sunshine.
- Well, mask up then.
- Mask up, right, mask the fuck up.
(MUFFLED) Listen to me.
Leave this up to me.
- DONNA: We need to fucking
- I'm gonna give him one more chance.
- No, just shop him now.
- We're better than that!
(CLEARS THROAT)
Right Vincent,
we've discussed the matter.
I was in favour
of shopping you to McCann,
but Davey persuaded me that
you are worth marginally more
alive than dead.
So, what're you gonna tell McCann?
That we can't find it.
It'll buy us some time,
and you'll continue
to grow weed for us,
while you work out
how to make this right.
Oh, fucking hell. 'Make it right'.
How the fuck am I gonna make it right?
The bloody statue's gone
and I can't just fucking conjure
100,000 fucking euros!
That's your problem.
If you wanna stay alive that is.
Because if we do tell McCann
you smashed his precious trinket
you're a dead man.
Yeah.
A pebble drops into a still lake.
The water warm and comforting.
And as the pebbles drift
down further and further
..the more free you feel
..free and open
Cardi, where are you off too?!
To find out if this place
is s-s-safe for Gid.
Oh, you're gonna ruin this for me
For Gideon, because these people
they respect him, they appreciate him
- for who he actually is, right?
- Or Or they pretend to
so they can keep him in their cult.
Oh Cardi, it's not a cult, OK!
It's not a cult, it's a commune!
(THUDS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Now, don't say it. No.
No, that proves nothing.
That proves nothing.
Cardi!
JON: (QUIETLY)
Hiya, yeah it's me, yeah.
So, let's meet at Tonkers to discuss
Yeah, look,
we've got a new one for you.
We've completely done it up,
new paint job, the lot.
Yeah, we wanna get it
on the market ASAP.
And there's a couple of
new recruits to look into.

What fucking You're joking.
Oh fucking Christ!
- What, you didn't see them before?
- Fuck!
It's alright, it's alright.
Tommo, it's alright.
We can just think of a Plan B,
another way to bring this place down.
- What's the fucking point, honestly?
- What do you mean what's the point?
(GRUMBLING)
Tommo, stop!
Tommo? Right, so, what?
Are you just gonna give up? Huh?
Look, you know when you said to me,
about how if you were my Dad
you wouldn't let me quit dancing?
- I were being a knobhead.
- No!
Well, yeah.
You were a bit.
But you were right too.
My Dad was the reason I started
competing in the first place.
I was this annoying,
hyper kid, with, like
no mates.
But Dad never gave up on me.
He used to say that all I needed
to do was just find my thing,
just a way to channel my energy.
Then one holiday
there it was.
Beat That Beat.
From the moment I stepped foot
on those arrows I felt
I felt like
that's where I was meant to be.
Every morning, Dad would
hand me a bag of 50p's
and he'd say go and do
what you do best.
It was when I cocked up in Vegas
..and I were calling to tell him,
it was the worst thing
I've ever had to do.
Right.
Did-Did he react badly?
No.
No, he told me he loved me,
said he couldn't have been prouder.
When I got home
..my neighbour was waiting for me.
Sometime after we spoke,
Dad had a massive heart attack.
I don't know, maybe if I'd have
given him some good news
- Maybe he'd still be here, you know?
- No, no, no, no.
Sorry, hang on, hang on, no.
Listen, I didn't know your old man,
but if Hans called me,
said he was second best in the world
at summat', I'd die of pride!
I mean, obviously, that's
I'm not suggesting that's
what happened with your Dad.
No.
The heart thing, that's a very
cruel coincidence and all that.
What I'm saying is,
take it from a father
You'd have been the best thing
in his fucking life, mate.
Right.
Where you going?
I'm not gonna
let you give up on saving your club.
- No chance.
- I can get past the alarms.
- I told you it's-it's impossible!
- No, it's not.
It's just like Beat That Beat.
It looks impenetrable,
but there'll be
a pattern to it, a rhythm.
Alright.

Yes, uh, y'see Gideon,

it's necessary for us
to comply with societal norms
to get things done.
This is our business manager.
He helps us keep the commune running.
And how about Mr Mittens,
wh what were he doing in your car?
He was going to be a surprise.
We knew you weren't
ready to let go yet,
but all that stuff at your house,
it-it's just a weight around your neck.
What, so you nicked it all?
- We cleared it out.
- And we kept Mr Mittens,
because we knew
how special he was to you.
You can't possibly believe this,
Gid. They're having you on.
No, Ashley. No, they're guiding me
They're good spiritual people,
Jon and Judith.

house out without permission?

Gideon signed his house over to us,
legally. They all did.
I never! I wouldn't.

- No!
Well except me declaration
of loyalty to commune.
Oh, shit.
