Giri/Haji (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Episode #1.5 - full transcript

In the aftermath of the gunfight, Kenzo learns that Yuto's shrapnel-ridden body has been taken to Sarah's flat, so he, Vickers and Donna rush there and attempt makeshift surgery in order to...

A night of murder and betrayal,

as blood is spilt in London
and in Tokyo.

Memories of a battle
fought over a young man's soul

and of new beginnings
cut short before their time.

Corruption and deceit.

Crime and punishment.

Right and wrong.

The thunder of guns

and the roaring sound
of their own futures approaching.

# Whenever I'm down

# I call on you, my friend... #



Have you got a condom?

Ahh. OK, yes.

Very good, wait here.

Err, make yourself comfortable.

Hey. Hey.

You're from the coffee shop. Twiggy?
Tiff. Close.

Not really. Rodney, right?

You wrote "Randy" on my cappuccino,
but, yes.

Projecting, babe.

What's the matter,
couldn't put some effort in?

Well, it's casual Friday.

You're staring.

Is that a problem?



Time will tell.

Didn't have you down
as a drag queen.

Well, I'm not.

What are you, then?

Well, now there's a question.

Did you come here alone? Yes.

Oh, how about that.

Me too.

Going strong, going strong... #

Oh, I need to be so very much

Oh, yeah, she's fine.

Hey, we're about to get a SWAT team
rammed up our ass but she's fine.

Take her back to your hotel
and you wait for me there.

Yuto? I'll find him.
I'll come back. OK.

You have to trust me.
OK, OK. OK.

Stay calm! OK, OK.

You brought death down

So, what were you doing there?

Got my wires crossed.

Oops.
SARCASTIC CHUCKLE

Ah, fuck!

I'm going to have to go to
my father with this.

Your father?

Yeah, you ever...you ever
see The Sopranos? Mm.

He's the guy who watches that
and complains

they got the sound effects all wrong
when someone gets beaten to death.

Nice guy, huh?

Oh, yeah, he's a fucking riot.

Which is exactly what we're
going to have when he gets here.

The fucking Pittsburgh mafia
running around.

HE LAUGHS

Not easy being a mobster's son, huh?

Plus, you're no good at it.

You don't know anything about me.

I know you're standing in petrol,
talking about lighting a match.

Maybe don't do that.

Especially not
when I'm standing next to you.

No, we're...we're
all standing in it now.

You, me, Abbot...

Yuto.

Especially Yuto.

Huh, if he's still breathing.

WRY CHUCKLE

So don't make the call.

We can all walk away from this.

Just like that?

Right.

Thank God my wife is out tonight.

She's watching Les Mis.

And do you know how expensive
those tickets are?

She's seen it, like,
ten fucking times already.

HE SIGHS

You know, you said on the phone,

"If you want to take him,

"you might not get a better
chance than now."

But he had 15, 20 guys with him.

Including you.

Am I right?
About...about 20 guys.

Cos I'm...I'm...I'm
thinking back over what happened

and I can't honestly say
it felt like a great time.

Y'know? Not when he was
surrounded by 20 fucking men.

And, like I said,
one of 'em was you.

And...and...and they seemed
to be expecting us. So...

..maybe your helpful little tip

wasn't really a helpful
little tip at all.

Huh.

And these are the sort of questions
my father's going to ask.

LIGHTER CLICKS

Fuck! Where's Kenzo?

You got something

There's a bathroom down the hall.

He's going to be so fucking pissed.

Is Yuto still alive?

Yes.

How about another drink?

You want another drink? Yeah.

All right.

I sure could use one.

Oh, my God.

He used to keep a bottle of
Johnnie Walker 21 in the garage,

my old man.

He'd go out there at Christmas,
when the family got too much.

He'd pour it into a paper cup
and just...

..just drink it by himself.

You imagine that?

200 bottle of scotch
in a paper cup.

He invited me out one year.

And we...just drank Johnnie Walker
21 in the freezing cold...

..next to his car.

And you're not saying anything

we're just, like,
we're just drinking.

I remember I could see
his breath in the air.

And I was so fucking...grateful.

ON RADIO: The headlines
this morning.

A gunfight between warring gangs
in the Soho area of London

has left 15 people dead,

with that number expected to rise.

Police have not yet confirmed

whether a double homicide in a
West End hotel later in the evening

was connected to the incident.

I've got to go into work.

They're calling everyone in.

What are you going to say?

I don't know.

Don't lie for me.

Don't lie for me Argentina?

What?

Nothing, it's...

I make stupid jokes
when I'm stressed.

I don't know what I'm going to say.

People are dying, Kenzo.

My name is Chief Inspector Hayashi.

Let me apologise,
my English is poor.

Better than my Japanese, I bet.

How can I help?

I am sad to inform you,

your detective has been shot.

What? There was a gun fight.

He is recovering.

Jesus. Roy in a gun fight.

I am very sorry.

There will be a full report.

Yeah, well,
I look forward to reading that.

We've just had a shoot-out
of our own, as it happens.

Yes, I saw on the news.

Here. Can I, err,
can I send you something?

PHONE VIBRATES

Do you recognise him?

No. I am sorry.

I do not know him.

I just had a call from Tokyo.

Roy has been in a gun fight.

Got shot in the arse.

Any other week, that'd be big news.

Is he OK?

Well, won't be able
to sit down for a while,

you know how much
he likes doing that.

Suspect in the Saburo murder.

Massacre in Soho.

One of our officers
gets shot in Tokyo.

It makes you think, don't it?
What's the name of that guy that

they sent over on Roy's exchange
programme? Your student?

Detective Mori.

Yeah, that's it.
Get him in here, will you?

Not to be disrespectful
to all the people who

lost their lives, but I'd be
remiss if I didn't mention

that your uncle is an
absolute specimen of a man.

I mean, drape a curtain round him,
have him point at a naked baby

and he'd be a fucking renaissance
painting, do you know what I mean?

Jesus.

I was like, "Oh, my God, now
I know why everyone's making

"such a fuss about this guy."

Again, with respect.

Sorry, are you worried about him?

I'm worried about everyone.

Right, well, let's take your
mind off it, shall we?

What would you like to see?

Southbank? Trafalgar Square?
Hyde Park?

Jack the Ripper's
fourth victim was Catherine Eddowes.

Another unfortunate prostitute.

Another unfortunate prostitute.

Her throat had been cut

and her abdomen torn open
in a long, jagged incision.

Oh, God.

She was found here, in Mitre Square,
in the City of London.

How is he? Sleeping.

He's been identified
in the video footage.

They're looking for him.

They're going to find him.

I mean, they're probably not
expecting to find him here, but...

It's OK.

It's really, really not.

My boss wants you
to come in and see him.

Why?

There was a shooting in Tokyo. A
British police officer was injured.

I need a drink, do you need
a drink? I need a drink.

So let's get a drink. Come on.

SOFT JAZZ MUSIC

Busy week, eh?

So, listen, I'm just going to say
this.

We crossed a line at some point.

And I'm not entirely sure
how we went from where we were

to a gunshot Yakuza
recovering in my bedroom.

A lot of people are dead.

And you and your brother
were involved,

and I am scanning the horizon
with a fucking telescope

looking for any sign
of my comfort zone.

I have put you
in an impossible position.

It's not impossible though.

I just have to hand you all in.

Then that's what you should do.

So that's what I should do.

There we are.

So, your daughter's
kind of brilliant.

She is very, um, strong willed. Mm.

My mother used to say this thing.

I don't know how you translate it,
but...

It's a long walk
around the garden of my pride.

She used to say that about Yuto.

Not you?

No.

So, do you say it to Taki?

I don't...

I don't think so.

A girl would like to hear
that from her father.

Did your father talk to you like...?

Oh, my God, my dad?

You can't get him to shut up.

He's a hugger.

I used to be able to make him cry
with a piano recital.

Yeah, he's a sweetheart.

That's what...

When my mum left him, you know,
I just thought,

"He's so gentle and kind.

"How could you hurt him so much,
this man who'd do anything for us?"

I mean, I get it now.

She fell out of love.

What can you do?
You can't fake that.

No?

No!

No.

To carry on living with someone
you no longer love

is as deceitful as adultery.

I met my wife in a shop.

She was working there.

She stocked the shelves.

I would watch her...putting
everything out.

It was so neat. It was like an art.

She made it like a painting.

So, you just went up
and started talking to her? No.

Too shy at first.

It took me weeks to talk to her.

What did you say?

The first time? Mm-hm.

I remember. I said, "Good morning,
Miss. It is a lovely day today."

Solid. And what did she say?

She said, "Yes.
But it will rain tomorrow."

Where did you go
for your first date?

HE SIGHS

Come on!

Where does one take a girl in Tokyo?

A nice restaurant.

How nice?

Nice enough for my budget.

Then I walked her home.

And so you called her?

Not right away.

How long did you leave it?

Two days. Wow!

So you didn't play it cool then.

I wanted to call her
before I had got home.

THEY CHUCKLE

To wait that long was a torture.
What if she forgot me?

In the two days since your date?

Yes.

I don't think
she'd have forgotten you.

It's all very romantic.

Yes, it was. For a long time.

HE SIGHS

And then?
And then there were years.

Two young people who met
in the shop were gone,

and instead there were two
old people in their place.

I'm sorry, this...

I'm sorry. No, no, it's OK.

I was with someone and it just...

You're right. There were years.

What are your...?

Do you have any scars?

Scars?

Yeah.

Um...

Knife attack.
A man I arrested. Oh, wow.

Ouch.

Why do you ask? I don't know.

If there's a silence,
I like to fill it.

Silence makes you uncomfortable?

A little bit.

People think
when they are not saying anything,

they are not saying anything,
but that's not the case.

Well...

..I think I could go
about 20 seconds.

Oh, are you going to test me?

OK.

SHE WHISTLES

Go.

You made it.

You can speak now.

Chez Rodney. Hard to believe
but all of this is mine.

The butler shall
take your bag to the East wing,

dress down service is at noon.

IN JAPANESE:

Sure. Let's just gloss over the fact

that your family did a
live reading of Die Hard

in the Trocadero last night.

IN JAPANESE:

Really? That's what you're
thinking about?

Is there a chance that you are,
in fact,

what those in polite society might
call a gay lesbian homosexual?

No.

It was a rhetorical question.

I could tell you were a baby dyke
the second I laid eyes on you.

I was just asking who she was. Sure.

Because you want to touch
each other's butts

or whatever it is you people do.

She's called Annie.

No. I'm going to call her. She's
probably out anyway. Unlike you.

Fucking relax.

She comes round here to smoke weed
all the time. I'll be very subtle.

As is my way.

Good choice.

Hiya. Where are you?

Me and my friend want to get high.

Taki. She was there last night.

Yes! That's the one.

OK, cool. Bye.

"What, the cute Japanese girl?"
Her words, not mine.

I thought you were Korean.

She's round the corner,
she's popping round for a bit.

Don't say I never do anything
for you.

IN JAPANESE:

Down the hall, on the right.

But the flush is stuck

so if you need to do a poo,

use the pub next door.

You're welcome.
