Stan Lee's Lucky Man (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Win Some, Lose Some - full transcript

Though Grey escapes Harry is hailed a hero for rescuing his colleagues from the river - by all except Superintendent Winter, suspicious of Harry's connection to Freddie. Harry traces a plane hired by Lily-Anne for Grey's supposed escape which is full of money, though Lily-Anne denies any crime. Then through Harry's wheeler-dealer brother Rich Harry meets a forger of passports who leads him to arresting Grey, though he is taken aback when Anna proves to be defending Grey on the murder charges. Harry once more encounters Eve, who saves him from a gunman and tells him he must use his lucky bracelet for the general good, not personal gain. Back home Harry works out that every good thing the bracelet brings him seems to be counter-balanced by something bad, especially when a colleague collapses after Harry has done a good deed for a woman at his Gamblers Anonymous group..

Follow the lady. Come on.

Hey, diddle diddle,
who is in the middle?

Come on, let's play.

You see, you follow the lady.
Come on, ladies and gentlemen.

Hey, diddle diddle,
who is in the middle?

No. Come on.
Bet. Bet, bet, bet, come on!

- Are you sure?
- Yes. Yes. Come on.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Sorry.

- Try again?
- OK, again.

Try again. So... follow the lady.
OK? Is it here?



Two, three... It's here.

- And make your bet.
- (ALL TALK AT ONCE)

- This one.
- Sure?

- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
- Are you sure?

- Yes. Yes. Come on.
- Are you sure?

This is a cheat! This is a fix!

It's a cheat!

This is life. Always.

Win some. Lose some.

(SHOUTS IN BENGALI)

(ALL SHOUT)

(ALL SHOUT)

(MAN SHOUTS)

(EXPLOSION)



- WOMAN: We need to go!
- (HARRY GROANS)

(SIREN)

(GASPS)

(GASPS)

(SIREN)

MAN: Look straight ahead.

He's been involved in an accident
so we'd like to run some more tests.

If he suffered concussion,
we will need to monitor him

but despite being under water,
his lungs appear clear

and his blood pressure's fine.

Thank you. (SIGHS)

My God. What a mess.

Um... Yeah. How is he?

- You OK?
- Yeah, I'm fine. Honestly.

SURI: Ben, take it slowly.

They've given me a thorough going over.
I'm alright.

Thanks to this hero.

SURI: You've been in a serious accident.

- Why don't you let them check you?
- No, I just need to go home.

- I'll give you a text.
- We'll give you a lift.

I'm not getting
in another vehicle with you.

I just need to go to bed.

(SOUND OF DOOR BEING UNLOCKED)

Thanks.

HARRY: Mmm.

I can never get them as soft as this.

All it takes is patience.

When are you going
back to your meetings?

I've already started.
Going most evenings after work.

But not last night.

So... what happened?

Nothing. Just the usual.

That's two lies in a row.

Harry...

It was a rough night. I just wanted
to come and see you, you know.

- Dad!
- Daisy! Hello, love. Oh!

- How's that arm?
- Good.

Yeah?

Kevin Grey's been on the move
for five hours.

We're reviewing CCTV footage
but there are a lot of black spots.

- So I'd like to concentrate on...
- DS Chohan, a word?

WINTER: I see
you're doing Harry's paperwork for him.

That's dutiful of you.

Well, to be frank,
after what he did last night,

I thought he could use a break.

Yes, he did very well.
Harry's a great man for a crisis.

He's decisive. Brave. Heroic, even.

I mean, it is obvious
why you admire him.

Very few of us could have done
what he did last night.

Then again, even fewer of us would
have allowed that situation to develop.

It was risky, what he did.

It is curious, don't you think?

All this chaos and as ever,

not a scratch on Harry Clayton.

Somethings not right here.

What's the simple solution to the
Kayleigh Fenchurch and Lau murders?

That Kevin Grey killed them both

because he was jealous
that Kayleigh left him for Lau.

HARRY: Yeah, but if it was
a simple crime of passion,

why would Grey need a speedboat
and a private plane to flee the country?

No, Kayleigh was murdered
as a message to Freddie Lau

and when Freddie failed to listen,

somehow Grey was manipulated
into killing him.

No mention of Kevin Grey
on the paperwork. Or any passengers.

Do we know where Grey was headed?

The manifest says
Paris, Dubai and then Macau.

- You speak Chinese?
- Cantonese. Just a little.

Oh, course you do.
Must brush up on it myself.

The hire account
is 26 Broadworth Street!

The Green Dragon Casino!

OK, so Lily-Anne wants Kevin Grey
out of the country.

But why this?

Why get a private plane?
How many millions is this worth, huh?

Walnut finish, fancy upholstery.

(FAINT CRUNCH)

Oh, Lily-Anne.

- Where's Kevin Grey?
- I have no idea.

Even though he was about to get
on a private plane hired by you?

You mean the plane picking up
relatives for my father's memorial?

Is hiring a plane a crime?

No, but stuffing it full of cash is.

Oh, dear.

I'm afraid I must plead ignorance
on that front.

Maybe you should speak
to the charter company.

Lily-Anne, did you force Kevin Grey
into killing your father?

Detective Clayton,
what must you think of me?

No, I don't think you did.
Someone else did.

Someone you're afraid of.

Lily-Anne, tell me where Kevin Grey is.
I can protect you.

I think we both know
why you really came here.

Those tables upstairs
are calling your name.

You know, Harry,
my father liked men like you.

Weak, broken men.

You reminded him of himself.

That's why he gave you credit.

And weak and broken as you are,
you abused that credit.

So now I own you, Detective Clayton.

You are mine to do with as I please.

Dismissed.

WINTER: But you, my Lord,
are a shield about me.

Lifter of my head.

I cried aloud to the Lord and he
answered me from his holy mountain.

I lie down and sleep.

Clayton definitely was into Lau
for a very large sum.

Everyone says so.

I want evidence.

Somebody out there
has a record of this transaction.

- I'll keep looking, sir.
- No.

No, that's not good enough.

Do you understand
what I was sent here to do, Orwell?

I've come here to clean
this rotten organization from within

and I'm entrusting you
to work with me on this.

(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

Uh... hi?

Good morning. ls your daddy home?

ANNA: Who is it, darling?

- Yes?
- I'm looking for Harry Clayton.

I've no idea where he is.

Perhaps I can come inside
and discuss it?

Absolutely not. Who are you?

Well, another time, then.

Have a nice day.

MAN: Anna.

Who was that?

Uh... No one.

Just go and get dressed.

(PHONE RINGS)

- Anna?
- Why is there a bailiff at my door?

OK, I'm on my way.

Don't worry, I handled it.

But, please, no more, Harry.

The new chief wants to speak to you.

- (DOOR OPENS)
- You wanted to see me?

I have information
that you owed Lau a large sum of money.

Money that you couldn't possibly
pay back on a detectives salary.

- Who said that?
- You don't deny it then?

I'm not responding to some... rumor.
Who told you that?

No, I like to protect my sources
as much as you.

In any case, it doesn't matter.

But what would matter
is if you let Grey escape

in order to keep the suspicion on him.

You think I killed Freddie Lau?

You certainly had the motive.

I nearly lost my life
trying to catch Grey last night.

Recklessness won't win you any points.

- I'm going back to work.
- DI Clayton, if you can't

or won't find Grey...

Orwell will.

Orwell?

He couldn't find his face in the mirror.

ORWELL: Scrap everything you heard.
I want to keep it tight.

I want you to start here,
set a radius and just sweep.

- Door to door. House to house.
- No one's talking about Grey.

The street chatter's all about
Kayleigh Fenchurch's funeral.

SURI:
Did you get anything from Lily-Anne?

No. Nothing except a plausible denial.

What's he gonna do? Is he gonna search
the whole of London street by street

in the hope of finding him?

Grey is in the wind.

Still can't believe
they let him commandeer my map!

- I brought those pins from home.
- (LAUGHS)

Grey needs to get out of the country
quick and quiet.

Who can fix that for him?

Very good.

I don't know, but I know
a man who might. Come on.

- (BELL)
- Josie.

Boss, there's a sudden smell of bacon
in the shop.

Don't flirt, Josie. I'm a married man.

Oh, Jesus, Josie!
I thought you meant the actual police.

Just have to have a quick word
with my brother. Take a look around.

Have you managed to look into the um...
the thing?

Your wee bracelet?
Scrape test came back inconclusive.

What does that mean?

The machine's buggered. Happens.

Rich, someone tried to kill me
over this.

Tried to chop my bloody arm off.

It's driving me a bit crazy.
You know, I think I might even be...

powerful.

I mean, how did she get it on
in the first place?

Harry, are you on crack?

- Just find out what it is, will you?
- OK, I will.

Is this cuneiform, Mr Clayton?

Oh, please, it's Rich.
And uh... yes, yes, it is.

Yours for only 200 grand.

You must know
how to get your hands on things.

Well, I've got that reputation.

Great. You can help us then.

We're looking for Kevin Grey,
a murder suspect.

We believe he's an imminent flight risk.

- What's that got to do with me?
- If you needed to leave the country

without being traced,
how would you do it?

I... have... no idea.

I mean, I might know some back channels
for a few things

but uh... professional ethics
and all that.

OK, we'll try somewhere else then.

Good luck.

Oh, just one more thing.

That's a Babylonian Museum mark.

So unless you've got the paperwork,
it's been looted,

and since you're not involved
in anything like that,

I know you'd want us
to call the Iraqi Embassy for you.

Professional ethics and all that.

Rich, I didn't properly introduce you.
This is DS Chohan.

She's, um... very good.

Hmm.

You'd need
a fake passport and transport.

I've heard around the Garden
that there's this new guy.

Follow the lady.

Come on! Hey, diddle diddle,
who is in the middle? Come on!

The cards are a distraction.
Why else do it here?

- See?
- I'll get him. You get the card guy.

No. Wait.

Let's test this out.

- Are you sure? Follow the lady, yeah?
- Mm-hm.

It's here. No. It's here.

Choose.

Let's play again, yeah?
And I'll beat you this time.

- I give you four to one.
- Four to one?

- Yeah. OK?
- OK.

OK.

Just follow the lady, yeah?

Choose.

- (PEOPLE GASP)
- H-How did you do that?

MAN: Hmm?

Let's play again. Just play. No bet, OK?

- OK.
- OK?

Choose.

Come on, choose!

- (PEOPLE GASP)
- How do you do that?

Police!

(ENGINE STARTS)

(MAN SHOUTS)

Well, what do we do now?

Like I said,
the cards are just a distraction.

- (PHONE RINGS)
- MAN: Hello?

Well, if it isn't Barry the Wizard!
How you doing, big man?

MAN: Ah, Clayton.
Not a social call, I expect.

Alas, no. Listen, what can you tell me
about the phone I'm calling from?

Can you give me the name of the owner?
Address?

No. It's a pay-as-you-go, bought
just off the Tottenham Court Road.

Uh... Looking at my maps,

it shows up most
at a lock-up garage in Bermondsey.

Text that address through to me,
would you, Barry? Thanks.

- OK, will do, nice to...
- (ENDS CALL)

Right, let's follow the lady, shall we?

(BEEPING)

(DOOR UNLOCKS)

Hello.

(GROANS)

HARRY: Nice place you got here.

Interesting stuff.

Ooh, the Green Dragon. Thanks.

Immigration's gonna love you.

How did you beat me?

Hmm?

HARRY: Ah. Customers.

Kevin Grey.

This man's wanted for murder.

- Where is he?
- How?

We need to know tonight!

No? I'll tell you what.

Why don't I call
some of the contacts on your phone, eh?

Ask them a few questions.

Try not to make it too obvious
that I'm police.

You might even survive the night.

How did you beat me, man?

- Where's Kevin Grey?
- (YELLS)

Tell me.

OK.

You tell me where Kevin Grey is,
I'll tell you how I beat you.

He called me and he beg like a dog.

So I got him a space in a storage crate
on a ship to Greece.

It leaves Portsmouth at noon.
I don't know where he is now

but that's where he'll be tomorrow.

(GROANS)

Now tell me, how did you beat me?

Huh?

(MAN SHOUTS)

You lied to him. He didn't have a tell.
His cheek never twitched.

- No, it didn't.
- So... How did you do it?

(MAN SHOUTS)

What are we doing with him?

He'll get out eventually.
Let's leave him in play for now.

Besides, we've got a shiny new source
for ourselves.

A guy that can fake passports
and find transport'll be in demand.

(PHONE RINGS)

WINTER: Yeah?

Our info is that Grey
will be in a storage crate

at Portsmouth docks at noon tomorrow.

We'll be there to pick him up.

What's Orwell got?

I haven't caught up with him yet.
Good work, Harry.

Harry got there first.

I'm tired of all this... talk.

I'm going to get you something
you can take to Internal Affairs. Soon.

I hope so.

When Clayton's gone,
I'm going to need somebody I can trust.

I am your eyes and ears, sir.

OK, so there's a train at 8:36
in the morning.

Great. So, fancy some dinner? A pint?

You're going to see Ben.

- He said he needed rest.
- Yeah, that was in front of me.

Go and... tuck him in.

I can't believe I'm getting advice
on my personal life

from Harry "Lose My House
In A Card Game" Clayton.

Right. I'll see you tomorrow morning
at Waterloo then.

Alright. Just after eight, OK?

By which stage my private affairs
will be 100 per cent in order.

(DOOR BURSTS OPEN)

(SCREAMS)

(DOOR OPENS)

We're closed tonight. Out of respect.

HARRY: I've got a line on Kevin Grey.

Thought I'd give you the chance to tell
me anything you know before he does.

Since we're such good friends.

- And what would I know?
- Who convinced Grey to kill Lau?

Your view of the world
is very dark and twisted, Detective.

Whoever was trying to force Lau out
got to Grey.

Lily-Anne? Someone else?

You can tell me, or Grey will.

The girl he was crazy about
was found in the Thames.

Grey blamed the guy
who took her from him.

Then he just happened
to try and board a private plane

hired by Lily-Anne?

If you have a charge, why don't you put
the cuffs on me and we can cha-cha?

If not,
I have Kayleigh's funeral to arrange.

You're very welcome to attend.

If you can find the time.

Hi.

- Hello.
- Look, last night made me think.

I mean, there are a lot of problems.

We work together. I'm Hindu.

You're a... nothing.

I support Spurs, you're a bloody Gooner.

And we're both a bit, you know,
crap at emotions.

But I've decided
that um... we're going out now.

Officially. Cos I might love you a bit.

And I think you love me a bit back.

Mainly cos you're not stupid.

- OK?
- OK.

God, that was awful.

So, can I come in
and get naked with you, please?

- (LAUGHS AWKWARDLY)
- What is it?

Hello, dear.

You must be Ben's mum.

(LAUGHS) Come in.

My little boy's got...

very bad eyesight.

A few months, he'll be b-b-b-b-blind.

Phil, stop looking at your phone.

She's m-m-m-making me fall asleep.

WOMAN: There's a new treatment
in Prague. NHS won't do it yet but...

I'll try anything.

So my mum's cashed in her ISA savings
to p-pay for us to go

but I g-g-9-9---

(SOBS) I lost n all.

I love my son so much.

But I've f-f-f-f-f...

I messed everything up again.

So that's it.

Harry...
Well, you haven't been here for a while.

Do you want to share anything?

Hello, everyone, my name is Harry C
and I'm a compulsive gambler.

I haven't placed a bet for... four days.

ALL: Hi, Harry.

You're all making me feel so old.

Didn't realize
they allowed toddlers to bet.

Is there a reason you've come back?

Someone asked me a question
the other day.

What if luck
was something you could own?

What if someone gave you something
that made you really lucky?

Something that caused amazing things
to happen.

I'd get rid of it.

What if you couldn't?

(LAUGHS) It's mad. I know it's mad.

Harry, this is your disease talking.

Go home. Write everything down.
Winnings and losses.

You'll see exactly what this charm
of yours is costing you.

- (BELL)
- COMMENTATOR: And they're Off!

One breaks well with four in second
followed by two, three and five.

One runs to the front there
in the black.

Still one.

- Four at the back...
- (CROWD SHOUT S)

“followed by two.

(COMMENTARY CONTINUES,
DROWNED OUT BY CROWD)

Thank you.

COMMENTATOR:
Dogs are arriving. Dogs are arriving.

One minute. One minute now.

(BELL)

And they're off. One breaks well,
followed by two, five and four.

And at the first bend it's one.

With six last and well off the pace.

It's still one. Six still last
and trailing by live lengths.

- I'll swap you.
- What?

- Swap tickets. I've got number one.
- Yeah. Alright. Yeah.

It's one, two and five very close.
Going on ahead now.

From two, five and...

There seems to be a problem
with the hare.

The dogs are all pulling up.

Except for six.
Six goes on into the last bend.

Six enters the last straight
and six crosses the line.

Did you fix this?

No.

COMMENTATOR: Due to
a mechanical error, the race is void.

All bets are cancelled.
Return your slip for a refund.

Yeah, well, you can thank
your lucky stars, mate.

Harry.

- You!
- What do you think you're doing?

That bracelet's not for playing games.

- What is it for?
- You know what it is.

- You felt its power.
- Why, then? Why did you give it to me?

- To shine light on the shadows.
- What?

You have to go. Now.
We have to run. Trust me.

- WOMAN: Harry!
- He tried to kill me.

Harry, luck like this has a price.

Do something good with it!

(GUNSHOT / SCREAMING)

Morning, Chohan.
Is that the walk of shame I see?

Please stop talking.

- Ah, young love. Remember it well.
- Shut up!

Endless hours of poetry, baths,
stubble rash...

- What train are we on? The 8:36?
- Uh-huh.

Did you collect the tickets?

Yes, Mum, got them here. 8:36.

Wait!
Kevin Grey loved Kayleigh Fenchurch.

He's not gonna be on that boat.
He's gonna pay his respects.

We have to act on our information.
It's too big a risk.

He's going to be at Kayleigh's funeral.

This is our one chance at catching him.

Trust me.

This is something I wrote.

K is for krazy,
the times we had together.

A is for amazing, the memories
that will live with me forever.

I is for love,
which is what I felt for you.

I is for intelligent,
the jokes that made me laugh.

- G is for gorgeous...
- He's not here.

- You even looked good in the bath.
- HARRY: He will be.

(PHONE BEEPS)

Hold on, I'll call you back in a second.

- Hello?
- WINTER: Harry, where are you?

Just pulling
into the harbor station now.

Anything happen on the journey?

No.

Listen, um... I can't really talk.

We're cutting it a bit close, timewise.

Indeed.

Well, I look forward to seeing you
when you're back at headquarters.

Come on!

(WOMAN SINGS RUN BY SNOW PATROL)

This is a funeral, Detective.
Have you no shame?

You know, I thought the authorities
back home were stupid.

But not even those hairy goat-fiddlers

would be so idiotic
as to expect a fugitive

to attend the funeral of his victim.

Ladies and gentlemen,
our boys and girls in blue.

HARRY: What's happening now?

Nothing.

I can't believe that I didn't
get on that train. We've blown it.

It doesn't make sense.

I'm sorry.

I hate these places.

(TIRES SCREECH)

- (BANG)
- Oh, God! Oh, God!

It's... It's alright, boys.

I'm gonna get us out of here. Jesus!

Come on, get your seat belt off,
you can do it. I'll take care of Frank.

Go! Go! Go, Harry! Go! It'll be fine!

(EXPLOSION)

Are you OK?

I haven't been to a funeral
since I was five years old.

My brother... My twin brother and I
were in a car accident.

My mother was driving.

I was OK, I got out, but they, um...

I spent the entire service
hiding underneath a pew.

I could feel everyone looking at me,

thinking, "Maybe it's his fault."

I'm sure they weren't, Harry.

Maybe they were just wondering
why you were hiding underneath the pew.

Grey can't face the family.

Not if they thought he killed her.

Kevin. Kevin, don't.

Kevin, don't!

- Quick!
- Stop!

(GROANS)

- You OK?
- Go!

Hey!

(PANTS)

(Y ELLS)

- Take him and give me five minutes.
- We'll need to have a drink.

Yeah, I know we will.

Alright, Steve?

- What's going on?
- Train crash, Harry.

SURI: We were meant to be on that train.

You're a lucky man, Harry Clayton.

MAN ON TV: We're getting more images
coming in from today's rail incident.

There are currently
around 40 injuries reported.

No fatalities
have been confirmed as yet.

15:35 on April the 3rd.
Interviewing the suspect Kevin Grey

are DI Clayton and DS Chohan.

Noting that the suspect
has agreed to be interviewed

without having a lawyer present.

- Can we hurry this up?
- Have you got somewhere to be?

HARRY: Who told you
that Freddie Lau had killed Kayleigh?

Why else would you have murdered him?

You thought that Freddie had taken
the life of the woman you loved.

GREY: I know Freddie didn't do it.

- I did.
- Sorry?

I'm pleading guilty to both murders,
Your Honor.

We're not charging you for
Kayleigh's murder. Why are you lying?

(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

Mr Grey, I'm here to represent you.

- Who are you?
- Your solicitor.

Interview suspended 15:36.

- Who sent you?
- My firm.

- What are you doing?
- My job.

Can we just be professional about this?

We're still a married couple, remember?
We both can't work on this case.

Well, then, why don't you go home?

Next, please.

How's your son?

3.80, please.

Yeah.

Here. Keep the change.

- This is thousands!
- HARRY: Take it.

That treatment's expensive, right?

- I can't.
- Please.

I don't...

- I don't want charity.
- You'd be helping me.

Honestly. And it's not for you anyway.

I'm gonna come back here

and I want to see photos of your wee lad
playing football in the park.

Don't let me down.

Thank you.

(SIGHS)

(KISSING SOUNDS)

What's up?

This is just between us.

It bothers me that Harry put you both
in danger to catch Grey.

Yeah, but he got him, though, didn't he?

And do you know what? He's the only one
who could have managed it.

Also, he knows
that I'm proper nails so...

- Idiot.
- (LAUGHS)

But all these risks.
One day, I'm just...

How about you stop talking about Harry
when you're in bed with me?

Shall we get the iPad out
and watch Modern Family?

Do you mind if we don't?
I feel a bit tired.

Ben, are you OK?

Yeah. Just need to...

(THUD)

(PHONE RINGS)

- Suri.
- Harry! It's Ben! He's uh... He's...

- What?
- SURI: I've called an ambulance.

I'm on my way.

Ben, we're nearly at the hospital.
