[ MID-TEMPO INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
PLAYS ]

[ WIND BLOWING ]

Suzanne: THE NIGHT I MET HIM,
HE SAVED MY LIFE.

HE WAS 19.

HE CAME HOME WITH ME.

AND HE STAYED.

ONE NIGHT I DROPPED HIM OFF
AT A CLUB IN TOWN.

HE NEVER CAME BACK.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

HELLO?

WHO IS THIS?



[ SNIFFS ]
FUCK YOU.

THEY FOUND SEAN'S BODY
IN THE RIVER.

MISADVENTURE.

I DIDN'T BELIEVE THEM.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE THEM.

I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE.

ROBBIE GOT IN TOUCH.

IT TURNED OUT THEY WERE
TOGETHER THAT NIGHT.

Robbie:
ACCIDENTS.

A BIT LIKE MIRACLES.

YOU BELIEVE IN THEM
OR YOU DON'T.

I HATED ROBBIE.

HE'D RING, AND SEAN
WOULD VANISH FOR DAYS ON END.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?



WANT?

I WANT HIM ALIVE AGAIN.

BUT I SUPPOSE THAT'S NOT ON.

SEAN LEFT THE CLUB EARLY
THAT NIGHT WITH THREE PEOPLE.

THEY WERE THE LAST
TO SEE HIM ALIVE.

ROBBIE WATCHED THEM DRIVE OFF.

EVERYTHING ELSE WAS DOWN TO ME.

I WAS ON MY OWN.

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

I LOVE YOU.

JUST TRUST ME.

I COULDN'T FIT SEAN
INTO THE PICTURE.

BUT THEY WERE OUT THERE.

SOMEWHERE.

ALIVE AND WELL.

THEY MOCKED ME.

THEY KNEW.

LISTEN. UM...

C-CAN YOU HELP ME?

I-I JUST NEED YOU TO DO
SOMETHING FOR ME.

YEAH.

I NEED YOU TO GET SOMETHING.

THANKS.

OKAY.

I REALLY THOUGHT
I WAS IN CONTROL.

ANDREA WALLIS.

TV AGONY AUNT AND VOYEUR.

SHE WAS EASY TO FIND.

SORRY, SWEETIE. NO MORE ROOM.
CATCH YOU LATER. KISS.

IT WAS GONNA BE SIMPLE.

ALL I HAD TO DO WAS CORNER HER,
AND SHE'D TELL ME EVERYTHING.

AND I'D BE FREE.

[ DOORS RATTLING ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ GUNSHOTS, CROWD SCREAMS ]

FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE,
LET ME THROUGH!

I'M A DIABETIC!

[ ALARM BLARING ]

[ ALARM STOPS ]

SHIT.

WHAT I NEEDED
WAS A LITTLE METHOD.

MADNESS CLEARLY WASN'T ENOUGH.

TAKE TWO.

ANGEL FARNHAM.

MADE IT BIG...
MORE BY GOOD LUCK THAN DESIGN.

THE NIGHT I TRACKED HIM DOWN...

YEAH. YEAH.

THE BUBBLE WAS ABOUT TO BURST.

HM. YEAH.
[ CHUCKLES, SNORTS ]

[ ENGINE REVVING ]

OH, CINDY. CINDY.
CINDY, COME ON.

I WAS IN THE RIGHT PLACE
AT THE RIGHT TIME.

YOU GOT ME SO FUCKING HORNY.
I'M SO FUCKING HORNY.

OH!

PUT IT AWAY!

[ LAUGHS ]

WHERE'S THE JAG, THEN?

SUCH A FAKE.

I'M OFF.

IT'S LATE.

CINDY, COME BACK!

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

CINDY!

I'LL PHONE YOU.

YOU'RE TAKING THE PISS,
AIN'T YOU?

[ VEHICLE DEPARTS ]

PUT IT DOWN.

PUT IT -- PUT IT DOWN.

WHAT --

PUT IT DOWN!

HELLO, ANGEL.

RIGHT.

[ GRUNTS ]

HE'S NEW.

STEFAN.

EAST EUROPEAN.

HE'S VERY HUNGRY...

AND VERY ARTISTIC.

[ GRUNTS ]

ANY ENGLISH?

PATCHY.

QUICK LEARNER, THOUGH.

WORRIED?

NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT,
YEAH.

I WON'T HIDE IT
FROM YOU, ANGEL.

SOMEONE OWES ME MONEY.

SO TAKE HIM TO COURT.

TRY AGAIN.

[ ENGINE REVS, VEHICLE DEPARTS ]

TAKE THINGS.

MUCH BETTER.

ASSET STRIP.

NOW, SUPPOSE THE SAID PARTY

OWES MORE THAN THE ASSETS.

WHAT THEN?

I DON'T GIVE A F--

[ SNORTS ]

NOTHING TRIGGERS THE MEMORY?

LIQUIDATION, ANGEL.

IT'S CALLED LIQUIDA--

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER, REVS ]

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

KEEP THE JAG!
I'LL GET ANOTHER!

I'M DELINQUENT.

[ LAUGHS ]

DO YOU NEED A DOCTOR?

NO, NO, NO, NO.

I'M FINE.
I'M -- I'M FINE.

NICE CAR.

I WAS GONNA GET IT RIGHT
THIS TIME.

NO RUSH.

NO PANIC.

CAN'T YOU STAY FOR A BIT?

WELL, IT'S...

LATE. YES.

YEAH.

MAYBE WE'LL MEET UP SOON.

I'M SURE WE WILL.

GIVE ME YOUR PHONE NUMBER.

I DON'T THINK SO.

WELL, GIVE ME SOMETHING.
ANYTHING.

SOMETHING YOU'LL HAVE TO
COME BACK FOR.

OKAY.

WAIT.

CLOSE YOUR EYES.

CLOSE THEM.

IT'S PROTECTION.

I THINK YOU NEED IT.

I LEFT HIM TO COGGLE OFF.

I ONLY HOPED HE'D MAKE IT
THROUGH THE NIGHT.

[ UP-TEMPO INSTRUMENTAL
MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

I'M NOT COMING.

Woman: WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
YOU'RE NOT COMING?

I'VE MET SOMEONE.

YOU'VE MET SOME--

AFTER I LEFT?

LAST NIGHT.

THAT WAS QUICK, ANGEL.
SCREW YOU.

LISTEN.

LISTEN. LISTEN. LISTEN.

DO YOU HEAR ME?

SO THERE'S NO TRUTH
IN THE STORY WHATSOEVER?

THESE ARE EXTRAORDINARY
ALLEGATIONS

MADE AGAINST A MAN WHO'S BEEN
HAPPILY MARRIED FOR YEARS.

NO FURTHER COMMENT.

LYING FUCK.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

Man: YOU ARE GOING TO SHOW,
AREN'T YOU?

IT'S A LOT OF MONEY
YOU OWE US, DARLING.

I'LL BE OUT IN A COUPLE
OF DAYS, ALL RIGHT?

[ DIAL TONE ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

YOU SERIOUS, ANGEL?

YOU KNOW WHAT THESE PEOPLE
ARE LIKE.

I KNOW THESE PEOPLE
DON'T FUCK ABOUT, ROSS.

I KNOW THIS, YEAH?

DON'T SHOUT AT ME.

YOU KNOW THAT GUN?
YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT.

[ MUTTERING ]

OH.

BOYS.

BOYS, PUT THEM DOWN,
OR YOU'LL DIE.

HEY. HEY.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

OOH!
GOT TO BE QUICKER.

GOT TO BE QUICKER.

HEY. HEY.

OH. BOYS.

OH, NO.

NO, NO, NO, BOYS.

COME AND GET ME.

[ TELEPHONE DIALING ]

Man: ANGEL, IS THAT YOU?

YEAH. YEAH.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET YOU
ALL MORNING.

I CAME ACROSS OUR FRIENDS
LAST NIGHT.

OH, YOU DID? WHAT DID THEY SAY?
ANY OFFERS?

OH, YOU KNOW.

KNOW WHAT?

TOSSED A FEW IDEAS AROUND.

SO, WHAT ARE YOU
UP TO, ANGEL?

I'LL LAY LOW
FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS.

I'LL READ A BOOK.

THEY'LL NEVER FIND YOU.

IMPROVE MY MIND.

[ LAUGHS ] YOUR MIND.

JUST GET YOUR ASS OUT OF THERE.
GO FOR A RIDE IN THE CAR.

GOOD IDEA.

NOW, LISTEN.
DON'T FORGET.

YOUR FLIGHT'S BOOKED.
11:40 P.M.

GOODBYE.

Man:
VISITOR FOR MR. FARNHAM.

[ BUZZER SOUNDS ]

[ GUN COCKS ]

[ GRUNTS ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

OH. OH. SHIT.

[ BUZZER SOUNDS ]

[ SNIFFS ]
HI.

HI.

UH, COME IN.
QUICK, COME IN.

STRAIGHT THROUGH.

YOU GOING AWAY SOMEWHERE?

YEAH.

I WAS MEANT TO.

SOMEWHERE NICE?

I HOPE SO.

EVEN NICER IF I WASN'T
GOING ALONE.

WHEN WILL YOU BE BACK?

OH, IT DEPENDS.

UH, NOT FOR A WHILE.

I, UM, I OWE SOME PEOPLE
SOME MONEY.

CRIMINALS?

BIT ON THE CRUDE SIDE.

COME AWAY WITH ME.

UH, NOT POSSIBLE.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME.

SUZANNE.

SUZANNE.

IT'S, UM...
IT'S A NICE VIEW.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL VIEW.

[ CHUCKLES ]

OH.

IT'S FINISHED HERE.

[ GASPS, GROANS ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

OH, GOD. OH, GOD.
OH, GOD.

[ MOANS ]

I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT SEAN.

YOU DO?
THAT'S NICE.

OW!

[ SOBBING ]
OW.

WHO THE HELL IS SEAN?

THINK.

[ GRUNTS ]

OH, IS THAT HIS NAME?

TELL ME ABOUT HIM.

UM, NICE GUY.

AND HE'S, UH, REAL GENEROUS.

HE...AND...

DEAD.

HE'S DEAD.

DEAD.
[ SOBS ]

YOU'RE VERY FUNNY.
YOU KNOW THAT?

IT'S TOO LONG AGO!
I CAN'T REMEMBER!

TWO WEEKS.

[ DANCE MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ SNIFFS ]
LOOK!

I TOOK HIM IN THE CAR.

WE -- THEY -- THEY --
THEY TOOK HIM IN THE CAR.

WHY DON'T WE GO
IN YOUR CAR?

I'M TOO PISSED TO DRIVE.

WELL, THAT'S NEVER
STOPPED YOU BEFORE.

I FELT REALLY LONELY IN THERE.
REALLY DEPRESSED.

I DIDN'T KNOW A SOUL.
BUT THEY ALL KNEW ME.

NO, IT'S TRULY A BAD --

WHERE'S THE PARTY?

WHIFF OF TROUBLE,
AND YOU'RE OUT.

IT'S BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN.

YEAH.

ONE DAY SOMEBODY'S GONNA SMASH
THAT STUPID PRICK'S FACE IN.

CINDY.

WHERE'S OUR LOVELY FRIEND?

OH, THERE YOU ARE!

WELL, IT'S A BIT
TOO LATE NOW.

WE'LL TRY IT
SOME OTHER TIME.

[ IMITATING GUNSHOTS ]

DON'T BE SHY.

PARTY. PARTY.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

COME ON! COME ON!

WE'RE LATE! LET'S GO!
COME ON!

WE'RE KIND OF IN THE MIDDLE
OF SOMETHING AT THE MOMENT.

NO. I'M SORRY.
WE'RE LEAVING NOW. YES.

SEE YOU. CIAO.

I DON'T CARE
WHAT SHE TOLD YOU.

LOOK --

[ BUZZER SOUNDS ]

CINDY! CINDY!

ONCE MORE LIKE THAT, OKAY,
AND YOU'RE DEAD.

ALL RIGHT?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
OKAY.

[ BUZZER SOUNDS ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

C--
[ WHIMPERS ]

CINDY!

SHUT UP!

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

CINDY, SHE'S --
SHE'S GOT --

CINDY!

C-CIN--

[ SILENCED GUNSHOTS ]

CIN...

OH, NO.

WE INTERRUPTING?

SHE'S -- SHE --

WHO?

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

MONEY.

[ SNIFFS ]

I WAS GONNA CALL YOU.

OH.
NO MONEY.

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

HE'S VERY GENTLE.

YEAH.
HE'S LOVELY.

OH, ANGEL.

YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING OUT ON US.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

[ SCREAMING ]

AAH!

NO! NO! NO!

[ GASPING ]

[ GRUNTS ]
OH, NO!

ONE CAN'T FUCK WITH GREAT ART,
ANGEL.

[ UP-TEMPO WALTZ PLAYS ]

[ GRUNTS ]

JUST GO WITH IT.

[ GRUNTS ]

TERRIFIC.
REALLY TERRIFIC STUFF.

THAT'S IT!

THAT'S IT!

YOU P-POOF!

I'M GONNA RIP
YOUR FUCKING THROAT OUT!

[ SCREAMING ]

OH, MY GOD.

[ TIRES SCREECH, THUD ]

[ HORN BLARING ]

[ GAGS, COUGHS ]

Suzanne:
I WASN'T HAVING TOO MUCH LUCK.

AS FOR ANGEL, WHAT CAN I SAY?

[ THUNDER RUMBLES ]

I WAS WRONG ABOUT ANGEL.

HE WAS ONLY THE CHAUFFEUR
THAT NIGHT.

SO WAS I.

OH, GOD.
I FEEL LIKE SHIT.

I'LL TAKE YOU.
I'LL COME IN IF YOU WANT.

NO.
YOU CAN'T.

[ THUNDER RUMBLES ]

Man:
...INVOLVING AN AS-YET-UNNAMED

OPPOSITION SPOKESPERSON,

HAVE SHOCKED AN ALREADY-NERVOUS
POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT.

OUR POLITICAL AFFAIRS
CORRESPONDENT,

JACK O'LEARY, HAS THE STORY.

YES, TREVOR, AND IT'S DIFFICULT
TO CONFIRM AT THE MOMENT.

AFTER TOMORROW'S STATEMENT
BY THE M.P.,

WE SHOULD KNOW WHETHER HE HAS A
VIABLE POLITICAL FUTURE OR NOT.

BUT, OF COURSE, AS YOU KNOW,
TREVOR, THESE THINGS ARE
VERY DIFFICULT TO SPECULATE.

INDEED, JACK.

THESE MATTERS ARE IN THE LAP
OF THE GODS, AS THEY SAY.

AND THAT'S ALL
WE HAVE TIME FOR.

JOIN US FOR OUR NEWS SPECIAL
LATER THIS EVENING.

TILL THEN,
FROM ALL OF US HERE...

Suzanne:
HARRY ROBERTS --

MEDIA POLITICIAN,
CHAMPION OF LOST CAUSES.

HE WAS ALSO AT THE CENTER

OF THE BIGGEST SEX SCANDAL
OF THE MONTH.

WHERE'S OUR LOVELY FRIEND?

FINDING HARRY WAS GOING TO
BE EASY.

GETTING TO HIM...
ANOTHER MATTER.

COME ON, JOHN.

WAVE.
LOOK HAPPY.

I'M TRYING.

Man: THAT'S HIM.
MR. ROBERTS?

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY
TO A FUNERAL.

[ CROWD SHOUTING ]

HARRY?

MR. ROBERTS?

TELL US SOMETHING, HARRY.

HARRY?

IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY?

I DON'T KNOW.
BUT IT FEELS APPROPRIATE.

THEY'LL HAVE YOUR GUTS FOR
GARTERS BEFORE THEY'RE THROUGH.

GOOD TO BE IN THE PUBLIC EYE.

FOR 15 MINUTES.

YES, I'M STILL HOLDING.

OH, I INTEND TO BE AROUND
FOR LONGER

THAN THE PRESCRIBED
QUARTER OF AN HOUR.

I WOULDN'T COUNT ON IT.

OH.

WHAT ABOUT ANDREA?

CAN'T SHE DO SOMETHING?

STRICTLY LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT.

IT'S IN HER CONTRACT.

BUT I COULD TRY SOMETHING.

IT'S A BIT OF A LONG SHOT.

[ TELEPHONE DIALING ]

HAVE YOU EVER MET --
HELLO?

WHO?

CANDY LANE.

SOUNDS LIKE A DRAG QUEEN.

ALMOST.

YOUTH-SHOW HOSTESS.
VERY HOT ON HARASSMENT.

[ Laughing ] OH.
EXCELLENT.

WELL-RESPECTED
IN WOMEN'S THINGS.

IF SHE CAN'T SAVE YOU --
HELLO?

H-- SHIT.

IT'S CHAOS DOWN THERE.

CAN YOU BE TRUSTED ON YOUR OWN
FOR AN AFTERNOON?

MAYBE.
MAYBE NOT.

YOU WERE GOOD TODAY
AT THE PRESS CONFERENCE.

I ALMOST BELIEVED YOU.

YOU'VE HURT ME A LOT, HARRY.

FORGIVE ME.

NOT NOW, HARRY.

WE MIGHT BE SEEN.

I'VE GOT TO GO.

I JUST WANTED TO SAY
THANK YOU.

[ GRUNTING ]

[ GRUNTS, SIGHS ]

HOW WAS IT FOR YOU?

RIGHT.

I'LL BE BACK...

WITH OR WITHOUT
MS. CANDY LANE.

AND REMEMBER.

YES, YES.

BE CHARMING.

[ SIGHS ]

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

♪ DID YOU THINK I'D CRUMBLE ♪

AND DIE? ♪

[ MUMBLING ]

Man: MR. FARNHAM'S
UNTIMELY DEATH BRINGS TO FIVE

THE RECENT KILLINGS OR SUICIDES
IN THE CITY.

FRAUD SQUAD INVESTIGATORS

AND THE STOCK EXCHANGE'S
OWN REGULATORY BODY

ARE PRIVATELY VOICING FEARS
THAT THE RECENT WAVE

OF BAD DEBTS MAY HAVE NEGATIVE
CONSEQUENCES ON THE FUTURE --

MAYHEM TODAY AT CENTRAL OFFICE,
WHERE HARRY ROBERTS ARRIVED

TO MAKE WHAT MOST PEOPLE
ASSUMED WOULD BE

HIS RESIGNATION SPEECH.

CONCERNING RECENT ALLEGATIONS,

MY SOLICITORS HAVE URGED ME
TO SEEK IMMEDIATE REDRESS

THROUGH ALL THE APPROPRIATE
CHANNELS.

MY WIFE AND I WISH TO STRESS

THERE'S NOT AN OUNCE OF TRUTH
IN THESE MALICIOUS RUMORS.

MY LOCAL PARTY MANAGEMENT
HAVE ALSO AGREED

THAT I STAY ON AS M.P.
I THANK YOU.

YES!

[ LAUGHS ]

[ CROWD SHOUTING ]

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

[ HINGES CREAK ]

[ LAUGHTER ]

[ WOLF WHISTLE ]

LOOK!

[ ALL SHOUTING ]

DID YOU SEE THAT?

[ GASPS ]

FUCK.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

[ BEEP ]

John:
Harry?

Harry, are you there?

HARRY?

Well, you lucky bugger.

HARRY.

You just might manage it
again, Harry.

Christine is flying back
tonight

from the Costa de la Luz.

I've lined up a photo shoot
for tomorrow morning.

Happily married,
faithful-couple stuff.

Candy Lane is on her way.

She loves you, and her show
goes out tonight...

live.

She's wearing
a lovely red outfit.

I think it's Versace.

I've been summoned to GHQ.

They're furious you didn't
toss in the towel this morning.

Their joke.
Not mine.

Good luck. Bye.

[ BEEPS ]

[ REWINDING ]

[ GRUNTS ]

SHIT.

[ GRUNTS, SIGHS ]

SHIT.

[ BUZZER SOUNDS ]

YES?

[ CROWD MURMURING,
VEHICLES PASSING ]

[ SIGHS ]

[ CHUCKLES SOFTLY ]

IT'S NOT FUNNY, CANDY.

MIND IF I CALL YOU CANDY?

UM, NO.

NO.
PLEASE DO.

YOU GAVE ME A REAL FRIGHT.

YES. YES.
I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT.

IT WAS A NASTY FALL.

[ INHALES SHARPLY ]
HOPE IT'S NOT AN OMEN.

OH, DON'T BE SUPERSTITIOUS.

I'M NOT.

JUST A BELIEVER.

THEY WANT MY RUIN.

EVERYTHING I'VE WORKED FOR,
EVEN THE HOUSE.

WELL, I'M DAMNED IF I'LL GIVE UP
THE HOUSE.

I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO LOSE EVERYTHING.

YOU DO?

I LOST SOMEONE
VERY CLOSE TO ME.

SORRY TO HEAR THAT.

YOU'D HAVE LIKED HIM.

GRIEF --
A...TERRIBLE THING.

YOU'RE BUSY.
UH, LET'S PLOW ON.

HERE.
WELL, THAT SHOULD DO IT.

NOW, NO SUDDEN HEAD MOVEMENTS.

OTHERWISE, IT MIGHT START
BLEEDING AGAIN.

AND I THINK, UM,
COLD COMPRESSES.

THANK YOU.

HE WAS A LUCKY MAN.

WHO?

YOUR, UM...

SEAN.

...INTENTION TO STAND BY ME.

I HAVE THE COMPLETE CONFIDENCE
OF MY PARTY

AND THE SUPPORT
OF MY COLLEAGUES

IN THE FACE OF SUCH
POLITICALLY MOTIVATED SLURS.

SOLIDARITY.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

THAT'S WHAT GIVES US
THE CRUCIAL EDGE AGAINST --

DO -- DO YOU MIND
IF WE JUST STOP FOR A MINUTE?

BASTARDS.

Man: DESPITE THE INCREASING
CLAMOR THIS WEEK

CALLING FOR HIS RESIGNATION...

Suzanne:
SUZANNE WAS NOW CANDY.

I WAS GETTING THE HANG OF IT
AT LAST.

...STAYING ON AS A MEMBER
OF PARLIAMENT.

EYEBROWS HAVE BEEN RAISED.

BUT THE QUESTION IS,
CAN THEY GET RID OF HIM?

MY MOTHER WAS HOUNDED
OUT OF THE VILLAGE WE LIVED IN.

SHE WAS SCREWING THE PUBLICAN.

SHE WAS A COMMUNIST.

AND, UM, YOUR FATHER?

HATED HER.
IT WAS HIS LOCAL.

Man: A TURBULENT DECADE
WHEN ANYTHING SEEMED POSSIBLE.

HARRY ROBERTS WAS THERE,
PLAYING HIS PART.

GREAT DAYS.

I MEAN, DO YOU FEEL SOMEHOW
THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO YOU?

SORRY?

AS HAPPENED TO YOUR MOTHER?

WHY SHOULD I?
I'M NO WHORE.

A FIERY SPEAKER POPULAR
WITH GRASSROOTS IN THE PARTY.

MIND IF I DUST AS WE GO?

I LIKE TO CLEAN
WHEN I GET NERVOUS.

SO WHY YOU?

W-WHY THE HATE CAMPAIGN?

A THORN IN THE SIDE
OF THE ESTABLISHMENT

WHICH MUST BE EXTRACTED
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

THE ISSUE, MS. LANE, IS WHETHER
I'VE HAD A LONG-STANDING LIAISON

WITH AN 18-YEAR-OLD
BOY PROSTITUTE.

AND HAVE YOU?

CATEGORICALLY NO.

LUDICROUS STORIES CONCERNING
POLITICIANS' SEX LIVES.

THIS -- THIS NEVER ENDS.

WE'RE NOT ALL
CLOSET CATAMITES.

OH.
THERE YOU GO.

TRAGIC CASE.

YOU KNEW HIM?

KNEW OF HIM.

NOT PERSONALLY.

DIFFERENT CIRCLES.

TAKE ALL THE SNAPS YOU WANT.

I APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT.

I WON'T FORGET IT, CANDY.

HONEST.

ARE YOU...HUNGRY?

I'M FAMISHED.

S-SO, UM, THE WHOLE THING
WAS FABRICATED

AND THEN SOLD TO THE PRESS?

ABSOLUTELY.

HARRY ROBERTS IS FINDING
HIMSELF INCREASINGLY ISOLATED.

AND CAMPAIGNS HE ONCE SUPPORTED

ARE QUICKLY DISTANCING
THEMSELVES.

HARRY HAS BEEN
SUCH A GOOD FRIEND.

BUT I'M AFRAID THAT...

PEDERASTY...

MENDACITY!

AND MONARCHY SIMPLY DO NOT MIX.

UH, GOEBBELS, YOU KNOW.

OH! NAZI BITCH!

OH, MY GOD.

OKAY.
I JUST...

CALM DOWN.
RIGHT.

IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.
I JUST...

JUST BE READY.
READY.

OW. SHIT.

[ OPERATIC MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ MUSIC CONTINUES ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

[ BEEP ]

CHRIST!

Harry, are you there?

IT'S JOHNNY!
JOHN!

I know you're there.

ARE YOU THERE?
JOHN?

Bad news, I'm afraid.

You've been ditched
from the shadow cabinet.

Turn on the TV.
There's more.

I'm off for a month or so.

RAT FACE.

I KNOW.
SOUNDS AWFUL.

RAT SINKING SHIP --

IS IT WORKING? SOMEONE --

[ MUSIC BLARING ]

TELL ME THIS FUCKING
THING'S NOT --

HI. I HAVE A GREAT SHOW
FOR YOU TONIGHT.

HARRY, ARE YOU WATCHING?
MILLIONS ARE.

A YOUNG MAN.
HERE HE IS. PAUL.

PAUL?

COME AND TALK TO ME.

LET ME FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU
FOR COMING ON.

THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

FOR ALL YOU VIEWERS
WHO HAVE JUST JOINED US,

PAUL IS THE MALE...
SEX COMPANION?

YEAH.
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

I think you'll agree
it's over.

WHAT'S HE TALKING ABOUT?

FOUR YEARS. IT'S A LONG TIME
TO BE WITH A CLIENT.

YOU GET ATTACHED.

IT'S LIKE, WELL, MARRIAGE.

[ CROWD SHOUTING ]

AND HE JUST DUMPED YOU?

THAT'S MY HOUSE.

HE SAID JOHNNY
WOULDN'T LIKE IT.

JOHNNY?

HARRY'S BOYFRIEND.

Little cunt.

THEY WORK TOGETHER.

I SEE.

A MONTH ENOUGH AWAY, LOVER?

I'M NOT JEALOUS OR NOTHING.

Oh, that's big of you.

BIG-HEARTED LAD.

HE'D CALL ME ALL SORTS OF NAMES
WHEN HE WAS IN THE MOOD.

SUCH AS?

THE LYING LITTLE WHORE.

WHORE.
LYING LITTLE WHORE.

He wants palimony!

SO YOU WANT PALIMONY.

PALIMONY?

PALIMONY, FOR YOU VIEWERS WHO
DON'T KNOW, IS BOY'S ALIMONY.

[ Laughs ] He's clearly
suffering from depression.

IS THAT RIGHT, PAUL?

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

IN HIS BANK BALANCE.

SO WHERE TO NOW, PAUL?

HOW WILL YOU REBUILD
YOUR SHATTERED LIFE?

I DON'T KNOW, CANDY.

CANDY?

She's furious
you turned her down.

AIN'T GOT A CLUE.

Nothing worse than
a media Queen spurned.

I LOVE HIM, CANDY.

CANDY LANE?

Your 15 minutes are up, love.

I'm exhausted.

Holiday time.

Where do you recommend?

[ BEEP ]

FUCK YOU, TOO.

IF YOU FEEL YOU NEED SUPPORT
IN A VIOLENT RELATIONSHIP,

DON'T HESITATE TO CALL
OUR HELP LINE.

071 --

AND YOU.

SO WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

SURPRISE ME.

MI5?

Suzanne: I'D NEVER TORTURED
ANYONE BEFORE.

BUT THEN AGAIN...I LIKED HARRY.

I'M PARCHED.

DO YOU REALLY LIKE
ALL THIS SHIT?

YES.

ACTUALLY, I DO.

PERFECTLY HARMLESS.

THEATRICAL.

IT RELIES UTTERLY ON
THE SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF.

VERY PURE...

THE ACT OF SUBMISSION.

SACRED.

IT DEMANDS REAL IMAGINATION.

IT SHOULD BE ENACTED
IN COMPLETE SILENCE.

SPEECH IS A NO-NO.

GET BACK TO SEAN.

I ONLY MET HIM ONCE.
I MEET LOTS OF PEOPLE.

IT'S MY JOB.

WE'RE NOT FRIENDS, THOUGH.

OH.
SO YOU KILLED HIM.

WHAT'S HAPPENING OUTSIDE
IN THE REAL WORLD?

DON'T -- DON'T -- DON'T PANIC.
IT MIGHT GO OFF.

I NEVER PANIC.

THAT'S A RELIEF.

I DON'T GIVE UP EASILY,
EITHER.

TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

I SAW HIM ACROSS THE ROOM.

CUTE.

THE NIGHT SUDDENLY
CAME ALIVE.

I LEFT SOON AFTERWARDS.
ALONE.

LIAR.

LIAR?

THAT'S THE LAST TIME
HE WAS SEEN ALIVE.

I DON'T REMEMBER
ANY PAPARAZZI.

LATER HE WAS DRAGGED
FROM THE RIVER.

HAVE YOU EVER REALLY LOVED
ANYONE?

HUNDREDS.

THOUSANDS.

TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
IN THE CAR.

NOTHING MUCH.

HE WAS IN THE CAR.
HE -- HE FELT A BIT PEAKY.

YOU KNOW, NAUSEA.

OI. OI.
WATCH THE UPHOLSTERY.

OH, GOD.

I CAN'T BEAR IT
WHEN PEOPLE VOMIT.

IT ALWAYS MAKES ME
WANT TO THROW UP.

DO YOU GET THAT?

HE'S LOVELY, ISN'T HE?

OH, JUST DUMP HIM.

TELL HIM TO GET A CAB.

HE'S ALMOST UNCONSCIOUS.

AND HE WAS SO HELPFUL.

RIGHT.

YOU WANT HIM?

MOVE.

OH!

YOU TAKE HIM HOME.
GO ON.

GET OUT!
GET OUT!

FOR GOD'S SAKE.

WHAT THE HELL?

OH, CHRIST.

[ SIREN WAILS ]

GET HIS DRUGS.

TRY THE POCKETS.

HERE. HERE. TAKE THESE.

AND MINE.

OH!
IT'S LOVELY, LOVELY STUFF.

GOODBYE!

OI, WHAT ARE YOU DOING
BACK THERE?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING
HIS DRUGS, NOT HIS FUCKING DICK!

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

I'D WATCH MY MOUTH
IF I WERE YOU, SUNNY JIM.

WHY? FANCY POPPING SOMETHING
IN IT, DO YOU?

YOU LITTLE SHITE.

OH, SHUT UP, BOTH OF YOU.

OH, CHRIST.
HOW DO I LOOK?

DO I LOOK AS IF I'M OFF
MY FACE?

YOU'RE ALWAYS OFF YOUR FACE.

PULL OVER.

YOU HEAR ME?

DON'T!

I'LL TALK TO THEM.
I-IT'S NOT A PROBLEM.

THEY'RE REASONABLE CHAPS.
I'LL HANDLE THEM.

YOU COULDN'T HANDLE SHIT.

COME ON. COME ON.
WAKE UP.

WHAT'S HIS NAME?

WELL, I THOUGHT
YOU KNEW HIM.

ME?

WELL, YOU DID SEEM
VERY INTIMATE.

WE ONLY GOT AS FAR
AS PHONE NUMBERS.

HE'S STOPPED BREATHING.

OH, FUCK.
THAT'S ALL I NEED.

DO SOMETHING.

COME ON. COME ON!
WAKE UP!

ALL RIGHT.
HOSPITAL.

NO.
I HATE HOSPITALS.

WELL, WE COULD SPIN THEM
SOME STORY.

WE FOUND HIM A-AT THE ROADSIDE.
H-HE'S A TOTAL STRANGER.

WELL, HE IS, ISN'T HE?

RIGHT.
I'LL DROP YOU OFF.

OH, YOU'RE NOT COMING?

I AM TOO WELL-KNOWN.

WHAT, MORE THAN ME?

I'M FAMOUSER
THAN BOTH OF YOU.

OH, LET'S DUMP THIS CUNT.

OH, LOOK,
I SAID THAT.

WHY DOESN'T ANYBODY
EVER LISTEN TO ME?

OVER HERE. OVER HERE.
ANGEL.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.
I SEE IT.

OVER HERE ON THE BRIDGE.

NICE.
IT'S -- IT'S DISCREET.

YOU DISGUST ME.

I DO?

I THOUGHT I BEHAVED RATHER WELL
UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES.

BULLSHIT.

NO. WAIT.
NO, YOU -- WAIT.

NO.
LISTEN TO ME.

I -- I THINK IT'S TERRIBLE
WHAT HAPPENED TO, UH...

SEAN.

SEAN.

A YOUNG MAN.
IT'S...TRAGEDY.

A-A POLITICAL ISSUE.

SOMETHING THAT I'VE FOUGHT
FOR -- FOUGHT HARD FOR.

LACK OF OPPORTUNITIES,
YOUNG LIVES,

UH, BASIC SOCIALISM --
THINGS I BELIEVE IN.

SOME OF THEM UNPOPULAR.
[ CHUCKLES ]

CALL ME NAIVE.
BUT, I MEAN, LOOK AT MY RECORD.

IT'S SOMETHING I'VE ALWAYS BEEN
BOUND UP IN.

I'M PARCHED.

[ METAL RATTLES ]

OH...

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
[ GRUNTS ]

YEAH, BUT...

YEAH, BUT...

SPEECH A NO-NO.
REMEMBER?

JUST BE CAREFUL.

DON'T GET MY HAIR CAUGHT
IN THE ZIP--

SHUT UP.

MY FAVORITE.

INCOMPARABLE.

[ GRUNTS, MOANS ]

HAPPY?

YOU KNOW, I THINK YOU MAY HAVE
AN ACTUAL FLAIR

FOR THIS KIND OF WORK.

[ GLASS SHATTERS ]

HA.

JOURNALISTS.

CAN'T KEEP THEM OUT.

THEY'LL BREAK THE DOOR IN
IF THEY HAVE TO.

THEY'RE ON COMMISSION.

[ CHUCKLES ]

YOU'RE NEW TO THIS,
AREN'T YOU?

YOU'RE A BRIGHT GIRL.

GET ME OUT OF THIS.

I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING.

I -- I'M A SITTING DUCK
LIKE THIS.

IT'S NOT FAIR.

AT LEAST YOU'RE ALIVE.

AH. NO SMALL MATTER.

I AGREE.

[ CHUCKLES ]

LEAVE ME TO THE HYENAS.

GOOD LUCK.

GOD BLESS.

OBSESSIVE BITCH.

[ CROWD SHOUTING IN DISTANCE ]

Man:
CAN YOU ALL PLEASE MOVE BACK?

MOVE BACK, PLEASE.

ONLY THOSE INVITED ON
"THE CANDY LANE SHOW," PLEASE.

EVERYBODY ELSE BEHIND THE GATE.

BEHIND THE GATE.

HARRY.
IT'S CRAZY OUT THERE.

LISTEN.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW.

WITH SEAN, DID...

DID HE EVEN...

DID YOU...

[ SIGHS ]

W-WHAT DID YOU DO WITH HIM...

BEFORE HE...

HARRY?

HARRY?

HARRY.

Suzanne:
I DID LIKE HARRY.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

I THINK HE LIKED ME, TOO.

IT WASN'T JUST BAD LUCK.

IT WAS ME.

I WAS KILLING THEM.

SORT OF.

AT LEAST NO ONE SAW ME LEAVE.

[ VEHICLES PASSING ]

I WAS IN TOO DEEP.

ANDREA.

MY LAST CARD.

[ PLASTIC RUSTLING ]

ANDREA WAS A WOMAN OF CATHOLIC
TASTES AND REGULAR HABITS.

ACTUALLY, SHE'D DRINK ANYTHING
AND FUCK ANYONE.

I MADE A BIT OF AN EFFORT.

IT WORKED.

Andrea:
HOW OLD ARE YOU, BILLIE?

WHY?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.
YOU JUST SEEM VERY MATURE.

SENSIBLE.

HOW OLD ARE YOU?

ON- OR OFFSCREEN?

IN REALITY.

IN REALITY.
[ CHUCKLES ]

OH, YOU ARE A FUNNY FISH,
AREN'T YOU, BILLIE?

WELL, I'LL BE 40 IN JULY.

IT IS JULY.

WELL, THEN, I'M 40.

SHE WAS A TOUGH ONE.

I ALMOST BLEW IT.

BUT THEN
LUST CAME TO THE RESCUE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING
THIS WEEKEND, BILLIE?

THANK YOU.

GOOD DAY, ANDREA.

FUCK OFF.

WE'RE LATE.
COULD YOU HURRY, ANDREA?

ANDREA?

COULD YOU TRY
AND DO SOMETHING

WITH THE LIGHTING THIS WEEK,
TROY, DARLING?

I DON'T WANT ALL MY WRINKLES

AND BROKEN VEINS BEAMED
TO THE FUCKING NATION.

YOU CAN DO FLATTERING,
CAN YOU?

[ CAT MEOWING ]

MORNING, ANDREA.

CUT THE CHITCHAT.
JUST DO THE FACE.

RIGHT.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?

PLASTER OF PARIS.

OKAY.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ THEME MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

I'M COMING.
[ LAUGHS ]

I'M COMING!

ME.

[ LAUGHS ]

REALLY ME!

OH, YOU'RE GORGEOUS!

WHAT A LOVELY AUDIENCE.

I LOVE YOU ALL.

HAVE YOU ALL HAD A LOVELY WEEK?

I'VE HAD A TERRIBLE WEEK.

[ AUDIENCE MOANS ]

AND WOULD I EVER KEEP ANYTHING
FROM YOU, MY LOVELIES?

YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT EXACTLY
A STATE SECRET, IS IT?

I'VE NEVER HAD MUCH LUCK
WITH MEN.

[ AUDIENCE MOANS ]

WHAT ARE THEY?

SWINE!

SWINE!

WHAT ARE THEY?

SELFISH PIGS!

SELFISH PIGS.

THE LOT OF THEM.

[ LAUGHTER ]

BUT WHAT WOULD US GIRLS DO
WITHOUT THEM, EH?

ANYWAY, WE'VE GOT A WONDERFUL
SHOW LINED UP FOR YOU TONIGHT.

WE'VE GOT THIS YOUNG GIRL WHO'S
COME ALL THE WAY FROM PORTSMOUTH

JUST TO BE HERE WITH US.

WHO THE FUCK WRITES
THIS STUFF, ANYWAY?

AND THAT'S A LONG WAY TO COME,
ISN'T IT?

[ LAUGHTER, THEME MUSIC PLAYS ]

WHAT DID I TELL YOU? I TOLD YOU
SHE WAS GORGEOUS, DIDN'T I?

NOW, THEN, DAWN,
TELL US ALL ABOUT YOURSELF.

THEY SAY THAT YOU'VE NEVER BEEN
OUT WITH A MAN

FOR LONGER THAN 24 HOURS.

IS THAT RIGHT?

[ LAUGHTER ]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT YOUR HAND
UP AGAINST YOUR FACE LIKE THAT.

HE'S A BIT LIKE HER SKIRT, EH?
SO LONG, THEN NO FURTHER.

DAWN, WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO LEARN

IS THAT LOVE IS MORE
THAN A FOUR-LETTER WORD.

NEVER MIND, DAWN.
MOVING SWIFTLY ON.

[ LAUGHTER ]

WE'VE GOT A SMASHING SHOW
LINED UP FOR YOU TONIGHT.

SO HOPEFULLY YOUR LUCK'S GONNA
FINALLY CHANGE.

WELL, UM,
KNOWING MY LUCK, UM...

IT WOULD PROBABLY BE TWO WEEKS
IN A ROOM ABOVE MY LOCAL CHIPPY.

DAWN, YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.

THE STREETS OF PORTSMOUTH
ARE ALWAYS AWASH WITH SEAMEN.

SO MAYBE YOUR LUCK
WILL CHANGE

[ LAUGHTER ]

IF YOU TRY YOUR LUCK
GOING DOWN ON THEIR DOCKS.

I SAID DOCKS.

[ LAUGHTER ]

Woman:
SHE'S FINISHED.

NOW...

SHE'S BEAUTIFUL.

SHE'S QUICK.

SO LET'S PLAY "CONFESSIONS."

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

[ ENGINE REVVING ]

Andrea:
MIND THE NETTLES, DARLING.

I KNOW IT DOESN'T LOOK MUCH
ON THE OUTSIDE.

AND FRANKLY, IT'S EVEN LESS
ONCE YOU GET IN.

LOOK AROUND, SWEETIE.
HELP YOURSELF.

I'VE GOT TO MAKE
A FEW CALLS.

NO, NO, NO. NO, NO, NO, NO.
NO. LISTEN, DARLING.

IT'S MUCH, MUCH SIMPLER
THAN THAT.

I WANT TO NAIL HER
INSIDE A COFFIN.

NO. LISTEN TO ME, HARVEY.
YOU'RE THE LAWYER.

YOU FUCKING SORT IT OUT.

[ PAPERS RUSTLING ]

BILLIE?

BILLIE?

OH, THERE YOU ARE.

THAT'S CAZ, MY EX.

WHAT HAPPENED?

HE LOST HIS HOOVES.
HAD TO TRADE HIM IN.

HURT AT FIRST,
BUT I'M NOT BIG ON GUILT.

WHAT DID YOU GET IN RETURN?

FAME. MONEY. SUCCESS.
THE USUAL.

DIDN'T HE LIKE YOUR WORK?

HM. LOATHED IT.

THE ACCENT THING.

DREADFUL SNOB.

HE NEVER DID QUITE GET THE HANG
OF POPULAR CULTURE.

SILLY BOY.

AND YOU.

HOW MANY LOVERS?

I'M SINGLE.

OH, THAT'S DIFFICULT
TO BELIEVE.

BEAUTIFUL THING LIKE YOU.

AREN'T YOU LONELY?

VERY.

[ THEME MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

MM. BILLIE! BILLIE!
LOOK. LOOK.

QUICK! QUICK! QUICK! QUICK!
I'M ON. I'M ON.

HELLO, LOVELIES.

HAVE YOU MISSED ME?
I'LL BET YOU HAVE.

WELL, LET ME TELL YOU. I'VE GOT
A FANTASTIC SHOW LINED UP.

THE TRAITOROUS LITTLE BITCH.

THE TREACHEROUS
LITTLE TALENTLESS...

I'M TALKING REAL...
[ SNAPS FINGERS ]

GIVE ME THE PHONE.
WHERE'S THE PHONE?

I WON'T BITE.

WELL, ANYWAY, SO HERE HE IS.

ISN'T HE GORGEOUS?

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

MY NAME'S RAYMOND.

OOH.
ISN'T HE POSH?

[ LAUGHTER ]

OH, THE SLAG.
THE P--

LOVELY.
SO, LOVE, WHERE ARE YOU FROM?

CHIPPING SODBURY.

[ LAUGHTER ]

OH, WELL...

YOU'RE NOT
PROUD OF THAT, DEAR.

SO, WELL, YOU'RE GORGEOUS.

WE'VE GOT A REAL TREAT.

[ SOBS ]

Suzanne:
SHE WAS FALLING APART.

IT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH.

THIS TIME SHE WOULD TELL ME
EVERYTHING.

ALL I NEEDED WAS THE COURAGE
TO ASK.

[ RUSTLING ]

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

[ COUGHING ]

CHRIST.
[ COUGHS ]

MY HEAD.

PLEASE DON'T LAUGH.

BUT DO YOU BELIVE IN GOD?

OR DESTINY?

UH, I-I'VE NEVER REALLY THOUGHT
ABOUT IT.

REALLY?

YOU NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT GOD?

NEVER?

I'M TOO PREOCCUPIED.

WITH WHAT?

THE PAST.

WELL, THEY'RE NOT
MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.

FOR MOST PEOPLE.

AND THE FUTURE?

THE FUTURE?

I, UM...

I DON'T CARE.

[ GRUNTS, THUD ]

I UNDERESTIMATED ANDREA...

IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE.

WELCOME BACK TO THE LAND
OF THE LIVING.

[ INHALES SHARPLY ]

OOH.

OH, THAT'S NASTY.

BUT, THEN, NO NASTIER THAN
WHAT WOULD'VE HAPPENED TO ME.

UNTIE ME.

LET'S TALK FIRST.

AND CUT THE "BILLIE" SHIT.

FUCK YOU.

ALL IN GOOD TIME.

DID YOU REALLY WANT TO
KILL ME?

ARE YOU DERANGED?

POSSIBLY.

WHAT HAPPENED TO SEAN?

IS THIS A QUIZ?

THREE OF YOU...
AT THE BRIDGE.

WHAT?

HARRY ROBERTS...

ANGEL FARNHAM...

AND YOU.

YOU KNEW THEM?

FATALLY.

YOU ARE DERANGED.

THERE WAS A BOY.

WAS THERE?

HE'S DEAD.

WELL, I...

I HAD NO IDEA.

HE'S A FRIEND OF YOURS?

AND YOU THINK I HAD SOMETHING
TO DO WITH HIS DEATH?

[ CHUCKLES ]
OH, GOD.

I'M SACKED.
I'M HUMILIATED.

I'M ALMOST STRANGLED.
I'M ACCUSED OF MURDER.

[ BOTTLES RATTLING ]

AM I REALLY
SUCH A BAD PERSON?

LOOK,
IT WAS HARRY'S IDEA.

HE LIKED HIM.
HE'S NEVER ONE TO MISS A TRICK.

HE DRAGGED HIM ALONG THERE.

ARE YOU LISTENING?

WE GOT TO THE RIVER.
I WANTED NO PART OF IT.

AND THEY JUST LEFT HIM THERE.

COME ON.

WELL, GIVE HIM A PUSH...

FROM BEHIND.

THE NEXT CRACK WILL BE
YOUR JAW.

[ VEHICLES PASSING ]

I AM NEVER GOING TO A PARTY
WITH THAT MAN AGAIN.

BUT THE FILTH WERE COMING.

HE DROWNED.

WE WEREN'T TO KNOW THAT!

WELL, THAT'S NOT
VERY DIGNIFIED.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST?

WELL, STAND HIM UP.

RIGHT.

OW! SHIT!

[ GRUNTS ]
GET UP.

IT'S NOT RIGHT.
WE CAN'T JUST LEAVE HIM --

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.
HURRY UP, BOTH OF YOU.

THEY'RE COMING BACK!

[ SIREN WAILING ]

GO.
GO, GO, GO, GO, GO.

I'M GOING!
I'M GOING!

[ BREATHING SHAKILY ]

Suzanne:
YOU KILLED HIM.

NOW, I'VE WARNED YOU
ABOUT THAT.

YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH IT.

HAVEN'T I ONCE ALREADY?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THAT DAY IN THE LIFT.

IT WAS YOU, WASN'T IT?

[ CHUCKLES ]

YOU SEE,
I'M NOT JUST A PRETTY FACE.

I GET ALL SORTS
OF CRAZED ADMIRERS.

ARE YOU SURE THIS IS
WHAT HE'D REALLY WANT?

YES.

BUT THERE'S SO MUCH
PAIN ABOUT ALREADY.

BETRAYAL.
REJECTION.

LONELINESS.

LOSS.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO ADD
TO THE SUM OF HUMAN MISERY?

YOU LOVED HIM.

AND YOU CAME IN SEARCH OF THOSE
YOU THINK HARMED HIM.

[ GUN CLICKS ]

ADMIRABLE.

BUT ONE THING
STILL PUZZLES ME, THOUGH.

IS IT LOVE OR THE CRAVING
FOR THE IDEA OF LOVE?

[ GUN CLATTERS ]

WHO SAYS WE NEVER PONDER
THE DEEPER ISSUES OF LIFE?

HOW LONG DID YOU KNOW SEAN?

OH.

I KNOW IT'S HARD.

HOW OLD WAS HE?

20.

OH. A BOY.

JUST A BOY.

STILL, LET SHE WHO HAS NOT
SINNED CAST THE FIRST STONE.

WHAT DID HE DO FOR A LIVING?

HE...

HE...

HE...

HE...

HE SOLD DRUGS, DARLING.

Angel:
OH. NICE GEAR.

[ SNIFFS, LAUGHS ]

YEAH, YEAH.
GREAT STUFF.

Sean: CASH.

WHAT'S THAT?

CASH.

OH.
CASH, CASH, CASH.

THERE YOU ARE, DARLING.

[ DANCE MUSIC PLAYING ]

I KNOW YOU'RE IN HERE.

ANSWER ME.

MAMA'S GETTING ANGRY.

[ SNIFFS ]

OH.

Angel:
SHE CAN'T HANDLE THIS STUFF.

OH, COME ON.
OPEN UP.

HOW ABOUT
IF I SLAM IT?

HER MONEY'S
THE RIGHT COLOR.

SHUT UP.

LET ME IN!
I KNOW YOU'RE THERE!

OPEN UP.

WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER ME BEFORE?
LET ME IN.

JUST -- JUST -- JUST --
JUST WAIT A MINUTE.

THERE'S ENOUGH FOR EVERYBODY.

IT'S NOT THE DRUGS.
I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEM.

WHY ARE YOU DELIBERATELY
EXCLUDING ME?

WE'RE NOT.
IT'S JUST THAT...

DARLING, THIS IS VERY MUCH
A GENTS' LAVATORY.

WELL, I DON'T SEE ANYBODY
PISSING.

OH, LOOK, HARRY.
CAN I COME TO THE OTHER PARTY?

NO.

WHY NOT?

ARE YOU READY?

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

IT'S BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED
THE LAST TIME, ISN'T IT?

I PROMISE I WON'T DRINK
TEQUILA AGAIN.

GO AWAY.

[ SHIVERING ]

COME ON, THEN.

WHY ARE YOU SO HORRIBLE
TO ME?

[ SMOOCHES ]

I AM COMING.

NOT WITH ME, YOU'RE NOT.

I AM. I'M STILL COMING.
AREN'T I, HARRY?

TELL HIM.

YOUR HAIR.
IT LOOKS SO BLACK.

RAVEN BLACK.

IT'S NATURAL.

OH, PLEASE.

THEN THERE ARE OTHER THINGS.

PERHAPS I SHOULDN'T SAY.

BUT THEN AGAIN, TRUTH...

...IS VERY PURIFYING.

HE FLOGGED HIS ASS AS WELL.

A HARD PLACE, LONDON.

VERY EXPENSIVE.

YOU'RE LYING.

[ TAPPING ]

[ SNIFFS ]

THIS IS EXCELLENT STUFF.

HOW MUCH WERE YOU, UH,
THINKING ABOUT?

WELL, LET'S SEE.

FOR YOU.

SEEMS QUITE A LOT.

HIDDEN LITTLE EXTRAS.

THAT'S QUITE --
QUITE BIG EXTRAS.

[ SIGHS ]

OH, COME ON.
I HAVEN'T GOT ALL DAY.

SORRY.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

GOOD GRIEF.

JUST A MINUTE.

Angel:
OPEN UP!

I NEED SOME MORE.

LOVE? AFFECTION?

PUNISHMENT?

I'LL TAKE THE FUCKING LOT.

HERE'S ONE OF ME.

WHO THE FUCK TOOK THIS?

YEAH, WELL, MAYBE.

WE'LL TRY IT
SOME OTHER TIME.

YEAH. YOU TOO.
OKAY.

SORRY, SWEETIE.
NO MORE ROOM.

CATCH YOU LATER.
KISS.

DIRTY LITTLE SCUMBAG.

LIKE A FLY TO SHIT.

SPECIALIZES IN FITTING UP
OLD QUEENS.

YOUR BOYFRIEND AND HE
WERE PARTNERS.

COLLEAGUES.

THEY ALMOST HAD HARRY
THAT NIGHT.

EXCEPT LOVER FELL ILL.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

YOU'RE OFF YOUR FACE.

AND YOU'RE GONNA
FUCK IT ALL UP.

LET'S GO.

PISS OFF.
GO HOME.

Andrea: ROBBIE,

WHO ALWAYS GETS SOMEONE ELSE
TO DO HIS DIRTY WORK.

ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

BUT SEAN --

HE WAS LOWLIFE, DARLING.

EXTORTION.
BLACKMAIL.

I MEAN, I KNOW WE ALL HAVE TO
MAKE A LIVING.

BUT THERE ARE LIMITS.

MUCH TOO YOUNG, TOO.

AND WE KNOW, DON'T WE?

WOMEN AGE QUICKER THAN MEN.

BUT LOVE.

REAL LOVE.

IT'S A MAGICAL KIND
OF CHEMISTRY.

SOMETIMES I THINK WE ONLY HAVE
OURSELVES TO BLAME.

I NEED HIM.

LOVE ME?

POOR DARLING.

STILL, MEN --
THEY STEAL OUR HEARTS...

THEN FUCK US UP
BEFORE YOU CAN SAY...

"CHOP, CHOP."

YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT.

YOU NEED SOMEONE.

SOMEONE ALIVE WHO NEEDS YOU.

I DON'T CARE IF YOU KILLED
THE OTHERS, IF I'M HONEST.

I'M EVEN WILLING TO FORGET
OUR LITTLE TIFF...

ON ONE CONDITION.

JUST YOU AND I.

DRINKS.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT? I WAS
DEPRESSED HALF AN HOUR AGO.

I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER NOW.

THEY THINK THEY CAN FUCK
WITH ME, DARLING.

WELL, YOU WAIT AND SEE.

I EVEN THINK I MIGHT BE ABLE TO
GET THIS PLACE TOGETHER AGAIN.

ALL BECAUSE OF YOU, DARLING.

[ GUNSHOTS ]

PLEASE.

PLEASE.

HAVE YOU NO PITY?

I HATE YOU.

DON'T THROW YOUR --
THROW YOUR LIFE AWAY LIKE THIS.

ALL OF YOU.

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT
OF TELEVISION?

WHAT?

WE COULD START AGAIN.

YOU AND ME.

DON'T BE RIDICULOUS.

[ GUNSHOT ]

PLEASE.

PLEASE.

I DON'T DESERVE TO DIE.

[ SOBS ]

PLEASE.

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

Robbie:
YOU WERE VERY GOOD.

WAS I?

Suzanne: THE NIGHT I MET HIM,
HE SAVED MY LIFE.

HE WAS 19.

SOME DAYS I'M OVER HIM.

MOSTLY I'M FINE.

BUT THEN I'LL TURN A CORNER.

IT'S LIKE A KICK IN THE HEAD.
