Dangerous Lady (1995): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript
Jumpin' Jaysus, what did
you wake me for, woman?
He's 21, Mickey. We can't
keep him on elastic.
He can't even tie his laces!
He was miles off
the Greek patch!
You talk to the
tart he was with?
All she remembers
is their fists.
I say, smack the bastards!
You say, "I made a mistake."
Go on. Say it.
I made a mistake.
Anyone talking?
No. If you need cash, let me know.
I don't keep it in a box.
When did the Ryans pay ransoms?
Was this her idea?
Roy!
Stay out of it!
We want him back in
one piece, don't we?
Don't we?
Right. I've tipped
off the girls.
Is one of them hidin'
Benny up her knickers (?)
They know every tom in London.
Good thinking.
All right, Benny.
It's all right.
Come on.
That's a good Benny.
Oh, nice watch, Benny.
Did you get it for Christmas?
Aargh! Michael!
Afou steloume tou Ryan.
Why the Greeks? What are they after?
Why start trouble now?
Who else knew he was going out?
The whole club. You know Benny.
You reckon it was set up?
We never let him go to the toilet
on his own. Everyone knows that.
Has anyone tipped off
Johnson at Soho Central?
Geoff?
The police should help.
We pay 'em enough.
Sorry, I was doing other things.
What? Good book to finish, eh?
Crossword to solve?
Maybe another haircut?
Has she gotta tell you
how to do your job?
Anyone else got any ideas she
didn't think of yesterday? Nah.
Who's gonna tell Ma?
No-one.
We're cut up and you go and
make us look like idiots.
You don't need help from
me to look like an idiot.
Are you all right?
Yeah.
Look,...
..why don't you go home?
Turn this into food
in the fridge.
Where'd you get that?
It's Benny's.
He... He gave it to me.
Come on. Let's get out of here.
I'm waiting for my orders.
All I want is to get Benny back.
Oh... I thought you
were after promotion.
If I didn't know better,...
..I'd think you cared more for
your hurt ego than for Benny.
You wanna go ten rounds with me?
Wait till we get him back.
Get some blokes out
asking questions
Jawohl, little sister.
Have you checked the morgues?
We've not reached that stage.
I don't need protecting.
So tell me.
Have you checked the morgues?
There's nothing yet.
Is there anything on the Greeks?
Stavros isn't in charge any more
since you lot took his legs off.
His cousin's flown in from Cyprus
- Dopolis, a ruthless bastard.
Buying properties
in the East End.
Find out more about that.
I'll get my lads onto it.
Except one.
Oh, yes. Terry.
Where does all that boring
paperwork come from (?)
He has staying power,
I'll give him that.
You work for me in the club or
the pimp out here. Not both.
He won't leave me
alone, Miss Ryan.
Go down the clinic
to get checked.
I've worked hard to give this club class.
I don't want you looking like crap.
He says he'll hurt my kid.
That'll keep him off
your back this weekend.
Please, go home.
NOISE
Who was it?
I don't know.
Problems?
Which old slag was
it last night?
Give it a rest, Janine.
You're the one that
needs to rest it.
Leave it! It's knackered.
Get a new one.
We've got one in the store
in the club, haven't we?
Get one with a wrapper on it.
I don't want her outside any more.
It's too cold.
She's fine. It
gives you a break.
Just like Roy and his tarts?
If you really want to help me,
stop him from seeing 'em.
Kick him out of the business.
Send him home.
Roy is never gonna
change, Janine.
Janine...
Don't wrap her in cotton wool.
I'll wrap her in barbed wire if
it stops her growing up like you!
This is lovely, Mum.
I can't eat.
DOOR OPENS
You're back too early, Benjamin.
Dinner's only half ruined.
Hello, Ma.
Don't worry. I won't stay long.
Oh, sorry (!) Am I in the way?
Yeah. For about two
and a half years.
You made him hit me once.
Now make him into
a decent husband!
Take your pudding
and eat it outside
CRIES
The Greeks want to meet tonight,
9pm, on the docks. I want backup.
Best men you can
get, all tooled up.
Geoff, talk to Johnson.
I don't want coppers there.
We'll scare the shit out of 'em.
We'll have Benny back tomorrow.
Michael, we should talk!
What's this? A party?
I want Benny back tonight.
You think that's possible?
It's possible.
You've just flown in from
Bubbleland, haven't you?
Maybe you don't understand
what a mistake you're making.
Let me put you straight.
Mr Dopolis...
We're willing to negotiate.
Tell the stupid tart to shut it.
You watch your mouth!
I didn't know you got so excited
over women, Mister Ryan.
Now, you talk, while
you've still got a tongue.
I didn't come to negotiate.
I don't care about your
bookies or your rackets.
I came to hear you
accept my terms.
And I ain't paying you a penny.
What do you want?
This warehouse and the
five others like it.
They're only sheds
and garages to you.
A cheap price to pay for
the life of your brother.
How do we know you've got Benny?
I'll be glad to get shot of him.
His whining put me
right off me food
He cries a lot, don't he?
Tears streaming
down his face,...
..especially when I
took that off him.
Leave me alone. No... No...
Listen to me, you
oily little shit.
I don't do deals.
You ask your cousin.
All right.
Return my brother and get
the first plane home.
Cos if I see you again,...
..I'll kill ya.
All of ya.
Now get out!
Nice one.
They'll give him back.
What if they don't?
You said you wouldn't
lose your temper.
You can't talk to these people.
You've just got to show 'em.
It's all about front.
SOMEONE SHOUTS IN GREEK
Yaarrgghhh!
(SOBS)
They'd have killed
him, whatever we did.
The priest's upstairs.
Confess to him.
Where does it all end, Mickey?
When I wipe these
Greek bastards out
No-one will touch
this family again.
Fight and we put
everything at risk.
Did you see him? They
cut him up like a pig!
(AGONISED WAIL)
You don't have to do it
on your own any more.
I am with you, Mickey.
You and me, Princess, eh?
Is he right, Geoff?
When you was born, this place
was full of cockroaches.
Michael dealt with that.
He wiped them out.
That's Michael's way.
I want you to show me
how Benny screamed...
when you took his watch off.
Aaarrgh!
Your old in-laws are
paying a visit.
What's she doing here?
Buying someone lunch, I expect.
If you'd like to wait in here...
I'm sorry about your brother.
I'm only here to
make a statement.
Take care of yourself.
I'm a big, grown-up girl
now, thanks to you.
Maura, I'm really sorry.
Is that it?
You're sorry?
Would you feel any better if I said
I've never stopped thinking of you?
You must have a boring life.
Do you know what your
family are doing to you?
My family wanted me when
you decided you didn't!
Remind me how the Ryans
got where they got.
My family stick together.
We protect each other.
Your family deal in threats,
intimidation, violence, murder.
Why are you here?
You trade in blood.
No doubt you have a few
spots on your sleeve.
It'll get under
your fingernails.
Your hands will be dripping in
it, and the horrible thing is...
..you'll get used to it.
You're the only
mistake I ever made.
Benny was stabbed 48 times.
The first one probably killed him.
47 were hate.
When that gets you,
it chews you up.
I came here...
..because I wanted to see if the beautiful
thing I knew was alive in there somewhere.
Is she?
Get out, Patterson, or I'll have
you for harassing a witness.
Is she?
I'm sorry about your brother.
There's a party down
the Sombrero tomorrow.
We're not going.
Alan said to remind you.
We're not going.
But it's his and
Max's anniversary.
Listen to you,
you're like a woman.
You embarrass me.
You smoke fags like a woman.
You show me up.
Are you going?
Eh?
Are you going?
You deaf? I said no.
I am.
Johnny...
Johnny, I'm...
You've nothing to
blame yourself for
Who said I had?
I know you.
You were like a father to Benny.
Christ knows, he needed
one, silly bugger.
Remember when you let
him drive the Aston?
He almost crashed it, but he was
so proud to be driving your car.
And remember the
dollar you gave him?
He held that till the
silver rubbed off.
I've kept pretty shtum
in front of Johnny.
I don't know what
you've told him.
What do you mean?
I trust him. But you
know how he can gab.
We don't want it broadcast that we're
looking for the grass who set Benny up.
We don't want him doing a runner.
The grass, I mean.
What's he do all
day with himself?
I don't know.
You coming?
No, I'm coming later with Maura.
Can I stand with
you a while, Mum?
I want to be alone with my son.
You can't touch him any more.
Maura's here, too.
I can smell the scent. Appropriate
for a whorehouse not a church.
Time was she would
have known that.
God took Benny because he
was still innocent,...
..before this family could
condemn him to hell.
You're part of this family, Mum.
People say that you
two sleep together.
Come on, Mum, please.
I know that can't be true...
..cos you're as queer as a
fish and she's a neuter.
Who made me that way, Mum?
Look...
Benny's dead, for God's sake.
Don't mention God, you
filthy, putrid thing!
Who held me down while
they ripped my baby out?
Mind your mouth in God's house.
God saw you do it!
You turned us into what we are.
The rosary broke in my
hand when you were born.
You brought a curse
on this family.
The witch has come up with a curse.
Mickey, let's leave.
Yes, do that. And
leave my house,...
..like the rats and
the cockroaches.
Michael got rid of them.
You didn't care if they crawled
over you while you were at it!
Get out of this church!
I should never have
stopped him beating you.
You disgust me.
Do I?
I gave myself to a stinking old man every
day to feed my family. That disgusts you?
Well, you knew!
You let it happen - my mother.
You should have looked after me.
How do you think
that makes me feel?
Get out of my life.
Let me know me when I can
come back to my home,...
the place where I learnt
what life was about.
You let me know.
You should be in this
box, Michael Ryan!
Do you want to stay with me?
I've phoned Maggie.
I'll go stay there for a bit.
SWITCH CLICKS UP AND DOWN
He's better with pipes
than electrics.
It's the only spare bed we've got.
Dennis is doing it.
You can kip on the
sofa if you want.
Why didn't you tell
me, you fat cow?
When's it due?
November.
Oh, Maurs.
We weren't going to come to the
funeral, but if you'd like me to...
Um... is this a pair
of knickers,...
..or an elastic band
with fluff stuck to it?
I got them on Bond Street.
I can get you some.
They won't look as
good in jumbo sizes.
You're not huge.
I'm an ugly duckling who grew into a
plain duck, or hadn't you noticed?
Sorry I haven't
seen much of you.
Mates don't have to see
each other all the time.
I don't want to get in your way.
Stay as long as you like,
at least till November.
You're happy,
aren't you, Maggie?
Maybe it'll rub off.
Just give your mum
a bit of time, eh?
Yeah.
Oi!
Danny!
Go on in!
Now, you listen to the lady.
You're going to leave
her alone, Danny.
Am I?
Was that a yes?
Cos if you don't, you won't be
making any more babies, mate.
Thanks.
Miss Ryan? I've been
waiting for you.
I wish to discuss business.
I didn't want to interrupt
while you had your hands full.
Excuse me. William
Boyd-Templeton.
What do you want?
I'm interested in some
property that you own.
The young lady did say you
were out at a funeral.
This is obviously
not a good time.
No, it's not.
Will you let me leave my card?
My home address is on there.
Feel free to call
me at your leisure.
I apologise for intruding
on your grief.
What properties?
Nothing substantial.
Just some warehouses
down on the docks.
I'm having a small
party next Friday
If you want to talk about the property,
perhaps you'd like to come. You can call me.
My condolences again.

Scotch.
I was keeping out of the way.
I thought you were sick of me.
I don't expect you to say
anything nice to me.
I'm lucky if you say
anything at all
I'm sorry.
Things haven't been
right since Benny.
You miss him, too, don't you?
Let's go home.
You were never coming
back, were you?
I thought we were finished.
No...
I think... you just didn't
want to see me again.
And why wouldn't I
want to see you again?
(I don't know.)
You tell me.
Look...
You've hardly spoken to me.
I'm just here.
I feel like the radio
or the television.
I mean...
..you turn me on,
then you turn me off.
I turn you on, do I?
You know you do.
There's too many things about
you I don't know, Johnny.
I love you, Michael.
Look at you, straight
out of Woman's Own.
Look at that. It's blown
as soon as I put it in.
Asked for a 5-amp and
got one for a kettle.

"Mickey."
"Mickey, please. Where are ya?"
"Mickey!"
"Mickey!"
Help me, Mickey, please.
Grab his feet, Mickey.
Mickey, help me!
Mickey, don't look at him.
Come on, come on, just lift him.
Mickey!
Oh, God.
I knew you'd come.
Are you all right?
I don't want to get
used to it, Terry.
This bloody life.
I don't recognise
myself in the mirror.
Maura, we can't go back.
I can change my life,...
..my family.
I want to stop the wounds bleeding,
I want to stop the blood.
Is this some Catholic
guilt thing?
The night you dumped me,...
..I was pregnant.
My mum took me to a
place and we killed it.
I got... all messed up inside.
I nearly died.
You must have hated me.
It was the only thing
that kept me alive.
I left you because I
wouldn't spy on your family.
Christ, what have I done to you?
You were the only one who knew
what I was really like,...
..who really looked.
I need your help.
I want to believe that
I can change my life.
I want to know if that
girl is still in here.
And, if she is,...
..can you love her again?
I've never stopped.

♪ PIANO: "Day And Night"
Well, you came. I'm so pleased.
Would you have called
again if I hadn't?
No, of course not.
You mentioned business?
Which bore would you like
to meet first, then?
I know just the one. Stay there.
What's your name?
Excuse me, please?
Willie always lays on good company,
but you're something else.
Get your friggin' hands off me
before I get you thrown out.
Remember why you're being paid.
Willie doesn't like his
guests disappointed.
Excuse me.
Miss Ryan!
Sorry, I'm the type
you can't buy.
I never said you were.
If you need entertainment,...
..I can provide better girls
than the ones up there.
Miss Ryan, there's some
silly misunderstanding.
You've got that right, mate.
How much do you want
for the warehouses?
Write your own cheque.
Just tell me what you want.
I want to be taken seriously.
And I want to know
why you want them
Call me tomorrow if
you're still interested.
This is all yours, is it?
Yes.
Have you ever met
your neighbours?
No.
You have now.
I own the rest of all
this, the whole street.
You're the second person
to want these warehouses.
I'm a property developer.
You're the old lady
who won't move.
Well, we own others.
I know. They interest me, too.
Do you know a man
called Dopolis?
No. How much?
One of my brothers was killed
because of these warehouses.
I have an emotional
attachment to them.
My family doesn't
need your money.
I'll tell you what
I'm looking for.
New business opportunities.
Legitimate.
What would you say
to a partnership?
Teach me.
Show me how it all works.
That's my price.
There are other people involved.
I'll have to consult.
Consult.
Has this Boyd-Templeton
got back to you?
No, not yet.
He will.
Will Michael'll buy this?
Michael can't take care
of this family any more.
He's been unhappy
since Johnny left.
He has lost it, Geoff.
You can see that.
He's boozing, he's
sniffing dope.
Look, I've seen it before.
He killed Johnny!
He killed Johnny.
No...
Maybe he told you that because -
I helped him get
rid of the body.
Does anyone else know?
No.
No-one.
Now do you see why things
have got to change?
We've nothing to
spend our cash on.
I have!
We live off
intimidation and trust.
We need to invest in
something legitimate.
Who wants to pay taxes?
You should, for your kid's sake.
We sell off the
East End rackets.
Geoff's been on to the Gilroys.
I bet. Monty's
dog's out tonight.
The one Mickey lost a score on!
Shut up and listen, you idiot!
It never used to be like this.
I used to have seven brothers.
Now it's five.
How many next week?
Who's counting?
You should be!
You might realise how quick
your turn would come.
We saw off the Greeks.
And what did it cost us?
Does anyone remember Benny?
Does anyone miss him?
The gutter always stinks.
It doesn't matter how much
Chanel you pour down the drains.
Isn't that right, Mickey?
Anything you say, Princess.

Buying someone lunch, I expect.
If you'd like to wait in here...
I'm sorry about your brother.
I'm only here to
make a statement.
Take care of yourself.
I'm a big, grown-up girl
now, thanks to you.
Maura, I'm really sorry.
Is that it?
You're sorry?
Would you feel any better if I said
I've never stopped thinking of you?
You must have a boring life.
Do you know what your
family are doing to you?
My family wanted me when
you decided you didn't!
Remind me how the Ryans
got where they got.
My family stick together.
We protect each other.
Your family deal in threats,
intimidation, violence, murder.
Why are you here?
You trade in blood.
No doubt you have a few
spots on your sleeve.
It'll get under
your fingernails.
Your hands will be dripping in
it, and the horrible thing is...
..you'll get used to it.
You're the only
mistake I ever made.
Benny was stabbed 48 times.
The first one probably killed him.
47 were hate.
When that gets you,
it chews you up.
I came here...
..because I wanted to see if the beautiful
thing I knew was alive in there somewhere.
Is she?
Get out, Patterson, or I'll have
you for harassing a witness.
Is she?
I'm sorry about your brother.
There's a party down
the Sombrero tomorrow.
We're not going.
Alan said to remind you.
We're not going.
But it's his and
Max's anniversary.
Listen to you,
you're like a woman.
You embarrass me.
You smoke fags like a woman.
You show me up.
Are you going?
Eh?
Are you going?
You deaf? I said no.
I am.
Johnny...
Johnny, I'm...
You've nothing to
blame yourself for
Who said I had?
I know you.
You were like a father to Benny.
Christ knows, he needed
one, silly bugger.
Remember when you let
him drive the Aston?
He almost crashed it, but he was
so proud to be driving your car.
And remember the
dollar you gave him?
He held that till the
silver rubbed off.
I've kept pretty shtum
in front of Johnny.
I don't know what
you've told him.
What do you mean?
I trust him. But you
know how he can gab.
We don't want it broadcast that we're
looking for the grass who set Benny up.
We don't want him doing a runner.
The grass, I mean.
What's he do all
day with himself?
I don't know.
You coming?
No, I'm coming later with Maura.
Can I stand with
you a while, Mum?
I want to be alone with my son.
You can't touch him any more.
Maura's here, too.
I can smell the scent. Appropriate
for a whorehouse not a church.
Time was she would
have known that.
God took Benny because he
was still innocent,...
..before this family could
condemn him to hell.
You're part of this family, Mum.
People say that you
two sleep together.
Come on, Mum, please.
I know that can't be true...
..cos you're as queer as a
fish and she's a neuter.
Who made me that way, Mum?
Look...
Benny's dead, for God's sake.
Don't mention God, you
filthy, putrid thing!
Who held me down while
they ripped my baby out?
Mind your mouth in God's house.
God saw you do it!
You turned us into what we are.
The rosary broke in my
hand when you were born.
You brought a curse
on this family.
The witch has come up with a curse.
Mickey, let's leave.
Yes, do that. And
leave my house,...
..like the rats and
the cockroaches.
Michael got rid of them.
You didn't care if they crawled
over you while you were at it!
Get out of this church!
I should never have
stopped him beating you.
You disgust me.
Do I?
I gave myself to a stinking old man every
day to feed my family. That disgusts you?
Well, you knew!
You let it happen - my mother.
You should have looked after me.
How do you think
that makes me feel?
Get out of my life.
Let me know me when I can
come back to my home,...
the place where I learnt
what life was about.
You let me know.
You should be in this
box, Michael Ryan!
Do you want to stay with me?
I've phoned Maggie.
I'll go stay there for a bit.
SWITCH CLICKS UP AND DOWN
He's better with pipes
than electrics.
It's the only spare bed we've got.
Dennis is doing it.
You can kip on the
sofa if you want.
Why didn't you tell
me, you fat cow?
When's it due?
November.
Oh, Maurs.
We weren't going to come to the
funeral, but if you'd like me to...
Um... is this a pair
of knickers,...
..or an elastic band
with fluff stuck to it?
I got them on Bond Street.
I can get you some.
They won't look as
good in jumbo sizes.
You're not huge.
I'm an ugly duckling who grew into a
plain duck, or hadn't you noticed?
Sorry I haven't
seen much of you.
Mates don't have to see
each other all the time.
I don't want to get in your way.
Stay as long as you like,
at least till November.
You're happy,
aren't you, Maggie?
Maybe it'll rub off.
Just give your mum
a bit of time, eh?
Yeah.
Oi!
Danny!
Go on in!
Now, you listen to the lady.
You're going to leave
her alone, Danny.
Am I?
Was that a yes?
Cos if you don't, you won't be
making any more babies, mate.
Thanks.
Miss Ryan? I've been
waiting for you.
I wish to discuss business.
I didn't want to interrupt
while you had your hands full.
Excuse me. William
Boyd-Templeton.
What do you want?
I'm interested in some
property that you own.
The young lady did say you
were out at a funeral.
This is obviously
not a good time.
No, it's not.
Will you let me leave my card?
My home address is on there.
Feel free to call
me at your leisure.
I apologise for intruding
on your grief.
What properties?
Nothing substantial.
Just some warehouses
down on the docks.
I'm having a small
party next Friday
If you want to talk about the property,
perhaps you'd like to come. You can call me.
My condolences again.

Scotch.
I was keeping out of the way.
I thought you were sick of me.
I don't expect you to say
anything nice to me.
I'm lucky if you say
anything at all
I'm sorry.
Things haven't been
right since Benny.
You miss him, too, don't you?
Let's go home.
You were never coming
back, were you?
I thought we were finished.
No...
I think... you just didn't
want to see me again.
And why wouldn't I
want to see you again?
(I don't know.)
You tell me.
Look...
You've hardly spoken to me.
I'm just here.
I feel like the radio
or the television.
I mean...
..you turn me on,
then you turn me off.
I turn you on, do I?
You know you do.
There's too many things about
you I don't know, Johnny.
I love you, Michael.
Look at you, straight
out of Woman's Own.
Look at that. It's blown
as soon as I put it in.
Asked for a 5-amp and
got one for a kettle.
'Ere, you tried the shower?

Hello?

"Mickey? Is that you?"
"Mickey, what's wrong?"
"Mickey."
"Talk to me, where are ya?"
"Mickey."
"Mickey, please. Where are ya?"
"Mickey!"
"Mickey!"
Help me, Mickey, please.
Grab his feet, Mickey.
Mickey, help me!
Mickey, don't look at him.
Come on, come on, just lift him.
Mickey!
Oh, God.
I knew you'd come.
Are you all right?
I don't want to get
used to it, Terry.
This bloody life.
I don't recognise
myself in the mirror.
Maura, we can't go back.
I can change my life,...
..my family.
I want to stop the wounds bleeding,
I want to stop the blood.
Is this some Catholic
guilt thing?
The night you dumped me,...
..I was pregnant.
My mum took me to a
place and we killed it.
I got... all messed up inside.
I nearly died.
You must have hated me.
It was the only thing
that kept me alive.
I left you because I
wouldn't spy on your family.
Christ, what have I done to you?
You were the only one who knew
what I was really like,...
..who really looked.
I need your help.
I want to believe that
I can change my life.
I want to know if that
girl is still in here.
And, if she is,...
..can you love her again?
I've never stopped.

Well, you came. I'm so pleased.
Would you have called
again if I hadn't?
No, of course not.
You mentioned business?
Which bore would you like
to meet first, then?
I know just the one. Stay there.
What's your name?
Excuse me, please?
Willie always lays on good company,
but you're something else.
Get your friggin' hands off me
before I get you thrown out.
Remember why you're being paid.
Willie doesn't like his
guests disappointed.
Excuse me.
Miss Ryan!
Sorry, I'm the type
you can't buy.
I never said you were.
If you need entertainment,...
..I can provide better girls
than the ones up there.
Miss Ryan, there's some
silly misunderstanding.
You've got that right, mate.
How much do you want
for the warehouses?
Write your own cheque.
Just tell me what you want.
I want to be taken seriously.
And I want to know
why you want them
Call me tomorrow if
you're still interested.
This is all yours, is it?
Yes.
Have you ever met
your neighbours?
No.
You have now.
I own the rest of all
this, the whole street.
You're the second person
to want these warehouses.
I'm a property developer.
You're the old lady
who won't move.
Well, we own others.
I know. They interest me, too.
Do you know a man
called Dopolis?
No. How much?
One of my brothers was killed
because of these warehouses.
I have an emotional
attachment to them.
My family doesn't
need your money.
I'll tell you what
I'm looking for.
New business opportunities.
Legitimate.
What would you say
to a partnership?
Teach me.
Show me how it all works.
That's my price.
There are other people involved.
I'll have to consult.
Consult.
Has this Boyd-Templeton
got back to you?
No, not yet.
He will.
Will Michael'll buy this?
Michael can't take care
of this family any more.
He's been unhappy
since Johnny left.
He has lost it, Geoff.
You can see that.
He's boozing, he's
sniffing dope.
Look, I've seen it before.
He killed Johnny!
He killed Johnny.
No...
Maybe he told you that because -
I helped him get
rid of the body.
Does anyone else know?
No.
No-one.
Now do you see why things
have got to change?
We've nothing to
spend our cash on.
I have!
We live off
intimidation and trust.
We need to invest in
something legitimate.
Who wants to pay taxes?
You should, for your kid's sake.
We sell off the
East End rackets.
Geoff's been on to the Gilroys.
I bet. Monty's
dog's out tonight.
The one Mickey lost a score on!
Shut up and listen, you idiot!
It never used to be like this.
I used to have seven brothers.
Now it's five.
How many next week?
Who's counting?
You should be!
You might realise how quick
your turn would come.
We saw off the Greeks.
And what did it cost us?
Does anyone remember Benny?
Does anyone miss him?
The gutter always stinks.
It doesn't matter how much
Chanel you pour down the drains.
Isn't that right, Mickey?
Anything you say, Princess.
