Bacon and chocolate?
Dad?

What?!
Why can“t you answer me?
Why CENUJOU exeroxse the common courtesy
of entering the same vague
arrondissement
as the person you are shouting at?

- What are you wearing?
- These are just my pyjamas.
- You wearing those to school?
- 0% course not.
- You dom dünk coñee.
Shut up, go away. G0 away-ah!
I hate it here.
For God's sake, don't tell your father.
He thinks he“s Pat Garrett.
This isn't his fault.
- It's nobody's fault.
- I mean, it was your idea.
Hello, little man.
- Come here, come here, come here.
- Have a bit of that.
How many pancakes did you eat?
- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.
Dad's birthday“s in December.
His sober birthday.
- I'm two.
- Oh.
I'm proud of you.
Come on, let's go, Pete.
You're not that man anymore.
- Get out of here.
- Where's my gun?
In your pocket.
Pew! Pew!
Fuck me.
Shall I honk the horn?
These things charge, though, right?
It's not a moose, Dad.
- Oi, oi, oi!
Shouldn“t you have a proper car?
This is a properly green community,
it's one of the things I love about it.
I'm growing up in the arse end
of nowhere.
- You sam *avse*.
- She dm but she shcumwt have.
Why can“t we go back to London?
Cos London's shit.
We'd end up living in some suburb
like Hainault.
Is that what you want? You want to live
in Rayner's fucking Lane, do you?
- You said 'fuck'.
- I know I did but I shouldn“t have.
In case you haven't noticed
- I'm not a snowboarder.
- No?
I can't think of anything
more pointless than hiking.
And I'm not a middle-aged man who likes
midge-infested rivers and fly-fishing.
I don't want to squander my youth here.
- 0h.
- Marry a fucking Iumberjack
and have kids and sell jam at the
county fair.
I want to be, like, a...
a photojournalist.
Or an archaeologist.
Or... an agent for change.
Fuckin' 'ell.
Seems like just five minutes ago
all you wanted was a tutu
and pair of pink jeggings.
Humour is an avoidance strategy.
- Drive slowly.
- Yep.
And it may handle like a golf cart
but it is a cop car...
- Yep.
- ...and you shouldn't be driving it.
Do you know how many police
move here from home?
- Loaas.
- 80'?
- Se, wok around yer.
- Paradise, right?
- It's the most boring place on earth.
It's a bit boring, in' it.
- I miss my friends.
- You don't have any friends.
I had friends. In London.
I was happy there.
Well, give it a chance, love.
Alright, Iet“s go.
Bye. Leva go.
- Morning, Chief.
- Chief.
Get a job.
Mormng, (smet.
- Chief.
- Alright?
How ya doing? Everything alright?
- Hey there, Chief.
- Hey.
Anything to report?
Tourist sprained her ankle up near
Forty Mile Creek.
- Is that it?
- Yep.
See, that's what I love
about this place.
She was running from a grizzly.
- Fuck me. She alright?
- Yeah, mum and cub.
Lady must've missed the signs
but no one was attacked.
- Well shouldn't we do something?
- We put signs up.
No, I mean, like, shoot it.
We dom 'msk shoot hears, Ohm.
Not unless they make
an unprovoked attack.
Feet
- Hm?
Sorry.
I'II let you know if
anything else happens.
- Alright.
- You can always go fishing.
Fishing?
It's what the last police chief did.
He left his fishing
stuff over there before he passed.
You can hem yourseü.
He wasn't killed by a bear, was he?
No, no, he was dead from exposure
by the time the bears got to him.
That“s a joke, right?
He's joking, right?
- Yeah, he“s joking.
- Council couldn't afford him.
Well, I'm not going anywhere.
- Ohm?
- Y ep?
Be careful out there, OK?
Top left.
Ahh!
Oh no.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
Buggen
Fuck me.
Hello, I'm Angela Worth.
I'm the new police chief's wife.
How do you do?
D'y0u fancy some burnt fudge?
Or would you prefer a fist fuck?
3% Happy bmhday m you
Happy birthday dear Jim
3% Happy bmhday m you
t
Jim.
Alcoholic. Addict.
Hi, Jim.
Two years sober today. Fuck knows how.
Um...
I know I'm supposed to say
something to a Higher Power
but bollocks to all that.
But I thank Father Greg for the cake.
Suzy.
So I don“t normally talk
at the meetings.
I'm usually hiding at the back,
but here goes.
What can I tell you about being a drunk?
I was born frightened, I think.
I grew up frightened.
And drinking took the fear away.
But... it also took
everything else away.
I didn't care about you.
I didn't care about me.
I didn't care about my family.
I didn“t care about anything,
except getting what I wanted.
And 'ü you got 'm the way o? that...
I'd kill you.
- 00h.
Thanks for trying.
May v;
Be my guest.
Mm.
This is good.
It's not. It's horrible.
- Butterscotch?
- Fudge. Buggered fudge.
English?
Irish. My husband's English.
Mmm. Come to check up on the colonies?
SHE CHUCKLES We live here.
Om
- For Gods sake, dom attempt to chew.
WOMAN LAUGHS How many have you sold?
None.
How much for the whole lot?
The whole lot?
It's for a good cause, isn't it?
Ah, thafs... no, no, no,
that's awfully kind of you but...
ljust bought ten jars of apple sauce
from the last stall.
Fudge'II make a nice gift.
You're the new police chief's wife,
aren't you?
If I were you, I'd want to be a sell-out
success at the church fete.
Sorry. Who are you?
Truth is, I'm here for work
and my children are
across the country with their father
who's an asshole, which makes it worse.
So I thought maybe a whole tray
of homemade *buggered' fudge
might make that horrendous hotel
seem less like The Shining.
Why didn't you say so? Here.
Knock yourself out. And a few teeth.
Welcome to Little Big Bear.
Elizabeth Bradshaw.
- Angela.
- Thank you, Angela.
You're welcome.
- Cheerio.
- Toodle-oo.
Who wants
a healthier future
for our children and a stronger economy?
We all do -
through North Stream 0il's
tar sands innovation initiative.
Come see how we're innovating
for a cleaner future
North Stream Oil cares.
You think I'm paid to say that? I am.
You think I'd lie for a Iousy paycheque?
I wouldn“t.
As V.P. of Stakeholder Relations,
I came to Little Big Bear to hear you.
To hear your questions.
Your hopes. Your fears.
Because, ultimately, this is your town.
Stop it.
Your valley. And your decision.
Bullshit. They started building
thai damn thing months ago.
North Stream Oil wants to build a
refinery in the middle of nowhere
because it's too big a health risk
to put next to a major city.
North Stream chose this site
because it is the perfect nexus
for oil sands petroleum into the US.
And our safety standards
far exceed the legal requirements.
What about crime?
The Chief is right. It“s happened in
Fort McMurray and Grand Prairie.
Migrant oil workers from all over the
world, pouring into
lillle lowns like ours
after long, backbreaking shifts looking
for somewhere to spend their cash.
Well, my bar for starters.
My paint's peeling
and my mortgage is hurting.
S0, you guys want to keep your local
watering hole open...
- I need more customers.
They're not gonna stop at a
few beers and a game of pool.
Half the shops in this town are closed
and the other half
are struggling to stay open!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa!
What does me poüce smet Khink?
Youwe worked mg cmes,
surew you cam be womed?
I'm new here. I was just concerned.
Airáxd of a “me cnme, Ohm?
Better at catching trout than crooks?
Alright then, well, if you want my
opinion, I think it“s a shit idea.
If it was up to me, I'd say no.
Well, it isn't.
Police Chiefs job“s not to interfere
in decisions like this.
God dammit, you just rolled in here.
YSU WEREM BOM HERE, YOU WEREM: med here.
You havem got the ñgm.
Me, I've got no right at all.
I'm just here to protect you.
But this town relies almost entirely on
a modest tourist industry, doesn't it?
S0 if you're so keen on protecting it,
why is there a tourist in the hospital
and a grizzly bear on the loose
while you were out fishing all day?
- Seems to me the Chief
shoum be out there shooüng beats,
not 'm here shooüng ms mouth oñ.
SHE SIGHS How'd I do?
Well, this always goes the same way.
If someone won't sign over their land
for company access
we just build our roads
on their neighb0ur's property.
Then they get all the tanker noise
and traffic fumes and...
none of the cash.
What about the rancher Lyle?
Comes from an oil family.
He'II know industry tactics.
Then therss the doctor wRh
the amp en her shoukáer
and the police chief
with something to prove.
You're here to get
a bunch of boxes ticked.
Don't make things complicated.
Care to fill me in?
I'm taking responsible social action.
Right. You've got a dead duck
in a plastic bag.
- They're poisoning our river!
- Oh, yeah?
It's 'our' river now, is it?
And the only reason the principal
bollocked me
for bringing a dead duck
into biology class
is because North Stream Oil
just donated money to the school.
Really?
Anna.
Is this going to happen to us?
What did Bradshaw say?
She said it had probably flown
through a wind farm.
How do you know it
didn't die of bird flu?
I don't know what it died of. Yet.
Pm your beh on.
Fuck me.
W.!
Excuse me, om... Mrs...?
- Bradshaw.
- Mrs Bradshaw.
Could you... get your truck off my road?
Your road? The Municipal Districfs road.
And we have full use.
Oh, fair point.
But, om, you know, next time
what if it squashes a school bus
or something?
How you doing, Dan, you alright?
Mm-hmm.
What's all this then?
Mr Lyle and I are just
having a private meeting.
Oh. Scooch up.
Is she trying to get your signature,
excuse me, on something?
- Yeah?
- Maybe.
You got a Iawyer, mate?
- Have you got a Iawyer?
- I dunno.
Oh, shit.
This man is in no fit state to be
signing any legal contracts.
- What do you take me for?
- I don't take you for anything, love.
Who's in no fit state?
- Well, Mrs...
- Bradshaw.
Mrs Bradshaw...
is trying to get your brother
to sign some sort of deal.
Just leave him out of this,
you understand me?
Elizabeth and me, we're trying to
do a little deal here.
I go and take a piss,
I come back here and you've crawled in.
Now, what business is this of yours?
Ah, I do apologise, Mr Lyle.
I didn't realise that you were here.
I*II be in my office.
We can finish our deal there.
Alright.
You can buy yoursew a dm track
but you can't stop me from
closing our road to your traffic
if it presents a health and safety risk
to the residents of this town
and their kids.
Elizabeth.
You may well have a personal opinion
about our use of the road
but you're powerless to stop it.
Oh, we'll see about that, won't we?
The police chief just knocked $25,000
off the deal we offered you.
Oi.
Don“t forget your duck.
What was all that about?
I took some socially responsible action.
- God!
- Jesus fuck!
Get your hands in the air now!
Get your hands in the air, Lyle. Now.
OK, put the gun... What?
- Put the gun away.
- If you don't arrest him
no one*s gonna respect your
authority here.
I'm British, Denise.
We don't do guns. Put the gun away.
Dad...
Put the gun away. Put the gun away.
I think you and I,
we need to have a quiet little talk.
- Are you going to arrest me?
- Do I need to?
- Up your ass, you fat Limey.
- Oh, knock it off, Danny. Really?
- Jesus.
- Om!
Oh, fuck!
Here we go, here we go, here we go.
Go on, you're on the Sidewalk.
You can't lie on the sidewalk.
Alright.
Just leave us alone, will ya?
0h, Christ,
you're not gonna puke, are ya?
Go on, Danny.
Nothing to see here.
- Have you got a tissue, love?
- Yeah.
Now, oil workers from Britain
to British Columbia
are gonna start pouring
into that facility
and all of them looking for
the nearest town to get fucked up in.
And the nearest town is...
Sorry. How can I help you?
How can I... help you?
I'm not following this at all.
Follow this. I'm, er, Head of Security
and our workers are gonna be
subject to a zero tolerance policy
on drugs, alcohol, gambling,
prostitution and violence.
Believe me, we're...
we're watching them.
But the reality is
we're counting on your cooperation
to make sure things go smoothly.
Smoothly for who?
Your only hope of keeping law and order
is to cooperate
fully with North Stream Oil.
That's why we pay you.
You don't pay me. The council pays me.
With our money.
You know this, this shit-heel town
couldn't afford a...
a police chief without us.
Door!
North Stream has blood on its hands.
I've been up North.
Seen what they've done.
Well, you think getting pissed
is going to help?
I filed a report.
Submitted it to the Federal Health
Department
and within three months
half a dozen so-called colleagues
have signed a document discrediting me.
I'm ruined.
Can I make you a coffee?
I'm Scared.
I'm really, really scared.
Can you stay with me?
Jesus, Suzy.
They're following me.
Who is?
Just dom have me. OK?
We should go see your kids.
I'II get Father Greg, too, alright?
Come round and take you to a meeting.
I don't need a fucking meeting.
I don“t need a meeting.
Just go.
Just fucking go. Go.
Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls!
Here we go!
- Five... iour...
- (tfmon, w s stamng!
Three... two... ene...
Send 'em down!
Which duck is gonna lead?
And it looks like a pretty
tight race to me.
Neck and neck at the start.
It says here
you poked him in the eye.
I tried to talk to him.
And then kicked him in the balls.
It was just a tap, love.
His brother Iaunched
a complaint with the council.
Use of undue force.
Think you're gonna get a warning.
Jesus, Jim.
No wonder everybody's staring at us.
Is there anything else
you want to tell me about?
The Tribal Elders are pissed.
Why, what's he done now?
You know the casino at the edge of town?
Yeah, the one they built
on the reservation.
It's not a reservation, love.
It“s a reserve.
Reservation is American, apparently.
Anyways, my father borrowed
a lot of money to get that built.
So?
You need the refinery
to get people into the casino.
If you're against the refinery,
you're against the casino.
I thought people loved
the police in Canada.
Yeah, till you got here, evidently.
We came here to get away from the
wreckage, not make more of it.
We agreed. Peace.
Unit One, tn/'s is Unit Three. Came in.
We got a 10-38 on Moose Mountain,
I'm British, Nick,
I'm not up on the 10 Codes.
- Can I have it in English?
- Just get here, Chief, Quick.
Right.
Did you touch anything?
Where do elves live?
In the woods.
How come I never see them?
They only come out at night.
- Are you OK?
- Mm-hm.
If she was planning to top herself
she wouldn't have
done it after a glass of fucking Rioja.
And she'd have told me. She trusted me.
You know how many alcoholics
commit suicide?
No note. No call.
She just drives into a Iay-by
and blows her brains out?
I don't buy it.
AII I know is that Suzy
was going after North Stream.
And after that she was blacklisted.
There's something.
Hello.
What if she didn't kill herself?
The coroner agreed it was a suicide.
I don't know.
Something's not right here.
You ever worked homicide?
Ewas.
I'II go, love.
It's five in the morning, mate.
- There's a monster!
- Alright.
What's going on?
There's someone outside.
- What?
- Get dressed. Get dressed.
How soon can you get here?
20 minutes. Something wrong, Chief?
As soon as you can, then.
Fuck.
- 0h, Jesus, Jim.
- Come on.
Fuck! Dad.
- I'll do him up.
- Good girl.
Right, this is what
we are gonna do, alright?
I'm gonna start the car,
I'm gonna put the door up
and we're gonna drive
right out, straight out.
I want you to duck down,
alright, tuck right down
- and stay like this.
- Get down.
Alright, see you do it? That's it.
Oh, Jesus, I told you to fix that thing!
Sm down, stay down.
Let's go.
Where are we going?
Calgary-
What just happened, Jim?
I don't know, love.
- Everything okay, Chief?
- Yeah.
Be a sniper's bullet
in the, er, front room.
Found it.
Also broken window, ground floor.
Fxre damage Ko the downstáxrs bamvoøm.
We contained it.
And an empty briefcase on the porch.
Nick“s checking the perimeter now.
Good.
Oh. fuck.
You stay in the car.
I need a wee-wee.
Can you hold it?
Petey, I don't think there“s a Ioo here.
- I'm going to pee in my pants!
- Dad, Petey needs the Ioo.
Not now love, alright?
I need a wee-wee.
- Not now, pal, I'm sorry.
- He's five years old.
30 seconds for a piss behind the car.
I need a wee-wee!
- I said no!
- Dad.
I'm going to pee in my pants!
Dad!
He was only five.

What can I tell you about being a drunk?
I was born frightened, I think.
I grew up frightened.
And drinking took the fear away.
But... it also took
everything else away.
I didn't care about you.
I didn't care about me.
I didn't care about my family.
I didn“t care about anything,
except getting what I wanted.
And 'ü you got 'm the way o? that...
I'd kill you.
- 00h.
Thanks for trying.
May v;
Be my guest.
Mm.
This is good.
It's not. It's horrible.
- Butterscotch?
- Fudge. Buggered fudge.
English?
Irish. My husband's English.
Mmm. Come to check up on the colonies?
SHE CHUCKLES We live here.
Om
- For Gods sake, dom attempt to chew.
WOMAN LAUGHS How many have you sold?
None.
How much for the whole lot?
The whole lot?
It's for a good cause, isn't it?
Ah, thafs... no, no, no,
that's awfully kind of you but...
ljust bought ten jars of apple sauce
from the last stall.
Fudge'II make a nice gift.
You're the new police chief's wife,
aren't you?
If I were you, I'd want to be a sell-out
success at the church fete.
Sorry. Who are you?
Truth is, I'm here for work
and my children are
across the country with their father
who's an asshole, which makes it worse.
So I thought maybe a whole tray
of homemade *buggered' fudge
might make that horrendous hotel
seem less like The Shining.
Why didn't you say so? Here.
Knock yourself out. And a few teeth.
Welcome to Little Big Bear.
Elizabeth Bradshaw.
- Angela.
- Thank you, Angela.
You're welcome.
- Cheerio.
- Toodle-oo.
Who wants
a healthier future
for our children and a stronger economy?
We all do -
through North Stream 0il's
tar sands innovation initiative.
Come see how we're innovating
for a cleaner future
North Stream Oil cares.
You think I'm paid to say that? I am.
You think I'd lie for a Iousy paycheque?
I wouldn“t.
As V.P. of Stakeholder Relations,
I came to Little Big Bear to hear you.
To hear your questions.
Your hopes. Your fears.
Because, ultimately, this is your town.
Stop it.
Your valley. And your decision.
Bullshit. They started building
thai damn thing months ago.
North Stream Oil wants to build a
refinery in the middle of nowhere
because it's too big a health risk
to put next to a major city.
North Stream chose this site
because it is the perfect nexus
for oil sands petroleum into the US.
And our safety standards
far exceed the legal requirements.
What about crime?
The Chief is right. It“s happened in
Fort McMurray and Grand Prairie.
Migrant oil workers from all over the
world, pouring into
lillle lowns like ours
after long, backbreaking shifts looking
for somewhere to spend their cash.
Well, my bar for starters.
My paint's peeling
and my mortgage is hurting.
S0, you guys want to keep your local
watering hole open...
- I need more customers.
They're not gonna stop at a
few beers and a game of pool.
Half the shops in this town are closed
and the other half
are struggling to stay open!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa!
What does me poüce smet Khink?
Youwe worked mg cmes,
surew you cam be womed?
I'm new here. I was just concerned.
Airáxd of a “me cnme, Ohm?
Better at catching trout than crooks?
Alright then, well, if you want my
opinion, I think it“s a shit idea.
If it was up to me, I'd say no.
Well, it isn't.
Police Chiefs job“s not to interfere
in decisions like this.
God dammit, you just rolled in here.
YSU WEREM BOM HERE, YOU WEREM: med here.
You havem got the ñgm.
Me, I've got no right at all.
I'm just here to protect you.
But this town relies almost entirely on
a modest tourist industry, doesn't it?
S0 if you're so keen on protecting it,
why is there a tourist in the hospital
and a grizzly bear on the loose
while you were out fishing all day?
- Seems to me the Chief
shoum be out there shooüng beats,
not 'm here shooüng ms mouth oñ.
SHE SIGHS How'd I do?
Well, this always goes the same way.
If someone won't sign over their land
for company access
we just build our roads
on their neighb0ur's property.
Then they get all the tanker noise
and traffic fumes and...
none of the cash.
What about the rancher Lyle?
Comes from an oil family.
He'II know industry tactics.
Then therss the doctor wRh
the amp en her shoukáer
and the police chief
with something to prove.
You're here to get
a bunch of boxes ticked.
Don't make things complicated.
Care to fill me in?
I'm taking responsible social action.
Right. You've got a dead duck
in a plastic bag.
- They're poisoning our river!
- Oh, yeah?
It's 'our' river now, is it?
And the only reason the principal
bollocked me
for bringing a dead duck
into biology class
is because North Stream Oil
just donated money to the school.
Really?
Anna.
Is this going to happen to us?
What did Bradshaw say?
She said it had probably flown
through a wind farm.
How do you know it
didn't die of bird flu?
I don't know what it died of. Yet.
Pm your beh on.
Fuck me.
W.!
Excuse me, om... Mrs...?
- Bradshaw.
- Mrs Bradshaw.
Could you... get your truck off my road?
Your road? The Municipal Districfs road.
And we have full use.
Oh, fair point.
But, om, you know, next time
what if it squashes a school bus
or something?
How you doing, Dan, you alright?
Mm-hmm.
What's all this then?
Mr Lyle and I are just
having a private meeting.
Oh. Scooch up.
Is she trying to get your signature,
excuse me, on something?
- Yeah?
- Maybe.
You got a Iawyer, mate?
- Have you got a Iawyer?
- I dunno.
Oh, shit.
This man is in no fit state to be
signing any legal contracts.
- What do you take me for?
- I don't take you for anything, love.
Who's in no fit state?
- Well, Mrs...
- Bradshaw.
Mrs Bradshaw...
is trying to get your brother
to sign some sort of deal.
Just leave him out of this,
you understand me?
Elizabeth and me, we're trying to
do a little deal here.
I go and take a piss,
I come back here and you've crawled in.
Now, what business is this of yours?
Ah, I do apologise, Mr Lyle.
I didn't realise that you were here.
I*II be in my office.
We can finish our deal there.
Alright.
You can buy yoursew a dm track
but you can't stop me from
closing our road to your traffic
if it presents a health and safety risk
to the residents of this town
and their kids.
Elizabeth.
You may well have a personal opinion
about our use of the road
but you're powerless to stop it.
Oh, we'll see about that, won't we?
The police chief just knocked $25,000
off the deal we offered you.
Oi.
Don“t forget your duck.
What was all that about?
I took some socially responsible action.
- God!
- Jesus fuck!
Get your hands in the air now!
Get your hands in the air, Lyle. Now.
OK, put the gun... What?
- Put the gun away.
- If you don't arrest him
no one*s gonna respect your
authority here.
I'm British, Denise.
We don't do guns. Put the gun away.
Dad...
Put the gun away. Put the gun away.
I think you and I,
we need to have a quiet little talk.
- Are you going to arrest me?
- Do I need to?
- Up your ass, you fat Limey.
- Oh, knock it off, Danny. Really?
- Jesus.
- Om!
Oh, fuck!
Here we go, here we go, here we go.
Go on, you're on the Sidewalk.
You can't lie on the sidewalk.
Alright.
Just leave us alone, will ya?
0h, Christ,
you're not gonna puke, are ya?
Go on, Danny.
Nothing to see here.
- Have you got a tissue, love?
- Yeah.
Now, oil workers from Britain
to British Columbia
are gonna start pouring
into that facility
and all of them looking for
the nearest town to get fucked up in.
And the nearest town is...
Sorry. How can I help you?
How can I... help you?
I'm not following this at all.
Follow this. I'm, er, Head of Security
and our workers are gonna be
subject to a zero tolerance policy
on drugs, alcohol, gambling,
prostitution and violence.
Believe me, we're...
we're watching them.
But the reality is
we're counting on your cooperation
to make sure things go smoothly.
Smoothly for who?
Your only hope of keeping law and order
is to cooperate
fully with North Stream Oil.
That's why we pay you.
You don't pay me. The council pays me.
With our money.
You know this, this shit-heel town
couldn't afford a...
a police chief without us.
Door!
North Stream has blood on its hands.
I've been up North.
Seen what they've done.
Well, you think getting pissed
is going to help?
I filed a report.
Submitted it to the Federal Health
Department
and within three months
half a dozen so-called colleagues
have signed a document discrediting me.
I'm ruined.
Can I make you a coffee?
I'm Scared.
I'm really, really scared.
Can you stay with me?
Jesus, Suzy.
They're following me.
Who is?
Just dom have me. OK?
We should go see your kids.
I'II get Father Greg, too, alright?
Come round and take you to a meeting.
I don't need a fucking meeting.
I don“t need a meeting.
Just go.
Just fucking go. Go.
Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls!
Here we go!
- Five... iour...
- (tfmon, w s stamng!
Three... two... ene...
Send 'em down!
Which duck is gonna lead?
And it looks like a pretty
tight race to me.
Neck and neck at the start.
It says here
you poked him in the eye.
I tried to talk to him.
And then kicked him in the balls.
It was just a tap, love.
His brother Iaunched
a complaint with the council.
Use of undue force.
Think you're gonna get a warning.
Jesus, Jim.
No wonder everybody's staring at us.
Is there anything else
you want to tell me about?
The Tribal Elders are pissed.
Why, what's he done now?
You know the casino at the edge of town?
Yeah, the one they built
on the reservation.
It's not a reservation, love.
It“s a reserve.
Reservation is American, apparently.
Anyways, my father borrowed
a lot of money to get that built.
So?
You need the refinery
to get people into the casino.
If you're against the refinery,
you're against the casino.
I thought people loved
the police in Canada.
Yeah, till you got here, evidently.
We came here to get away from the
wreckage, not make more of it.
We agreed. Peace.
Unit One, tn/'s is Unit Three. Came in.
We got a 10-38 on Moose Mountain,
I'm British, Nick,
I'm not up on the 10 Codes.
- Can I have it in English?
- Just get here, Chief, Quick.
Right.
Did you touch anything?
Where do elves live?
In the woods.
How come I never see them?
They only come out at night.
- Are you OK?
- Mm-hm.
If she was planning to top herself
she wouldn't have
done it after a glass of fucking Rioja.
And she'd have told me. She trusted me.
You know how many alcoholics
commit suicide?
No note. No call.
She just drives into a Iay-by
and blows her brains out?
I don't buy it.
AII I know is that Suzy
was going after North Stream.
And after that she was blacklisted.
There's something.
Hello.
What if she didn't kill herself?
The coroner agreed it was a suicide.
I don't know.
Something's not right here.
You ever worked homicide?
Ewas.
I'II go, love.
It's five in the morning, mate.
- There's a monster!
- Alright.
What's going on?
There's someone outside.
- What?
- Get dressed. Get dressed.
How soon can you get here?
20 minutes. Something wrong, Chief?
As soon as you can, then.
Fuck.
- 0h, Jesus, Jim.
- Come on.
Fuck! Dad.
- I'll do him up.
- Good girl.
Right, this is what
we are gonna do, alright?
I'm gonna start the car,
I'm gonna put the door up
and we're gonna drive
right out, straight out.
I want you to duck down,
alright, tuck right down
- and stay like this.
- Get down.
Alright, see you do it? That's it.
Oh, Jesus, I told you to fix that thing!
Sm down, stay down.
Let's go.
Where are we going?
Calgary-
What just happened, Jim?
I don't know, love.
- Everything okay, Chief?
- Yeah.
Be a sniper's bullet
in the, er, front room.
Found it.
Also broken window, ground floor.
Fxre damage Ko the downstáxrs bamvoøm.
We contained it.
And an empty briefcase on the porch.
Nick“s checking the perimeter now.
Good.
Oh. fuck.
You stay in the car.
I need a wee-wee.
Can you hold it?
Petey, I don't think there“s a Ioo here.
- I'm going to pee in my pants!
- Dad, Petey needs the Ioo.
Not now love, alright?
I need a wee-wee.
- Not now, pal, I'm sorry.
- He's five years old.
30 seconds for a piss behind the car.
I need a wee-wee!
- I said no!
- Dad.
I'm going to pee in my pants!
Dad!
He was only five.
