Package late arriving. Get out, Ngaire. You're fired. How about a job part-time ` get you out of the house, money of your own. Work? For you? Forgot my bag! (ELECTRO MUSIC) You wanna do that try-hard yuppie shit, do it elsewhere. You are in no state to drive! Oh! Why don't you tell me what it'll take to end this? What I want is for you to get out of West Auckland and never come back. Then we clearly need to come to some sort of an arrangement, a truce. Frankie Figgs' house? Tick. I've got some information that might help us take the prick all the way down. We're still playing a long game with this one. It's very important. www.able.co.nz Copyright Able 2019. This doesn't change anything. Uh-huh. I'm still mad at you. Oh God! Oh yeah! Oh! Oh! Oh! Shit yes! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Sorry ` you were saying? (SIGHS) Least I'll finally be in Parnell. So, what do they actually do in one of these rehab places? Do they give you, like, drugs? Drugs to stop you taking drugs? Or lock you up in a padded room? I bet there's a lot of talking, admitting you have a problem. And do you? You've seen the state of me. Not your best work. Does that count as a problem? It felt like a problem at the time. Cos you wouldn't wanna lock yourself up in one of these places if you weren't sure, would you? Drive. I can sort this. I can sort myself out. That's my girl. I have the right, Rita. I'm not denying that. After what that prick did to me, so stop giving me grief about it. I'm not giving you grief about it, Ted ` I'm suggesting there's another way. Your way. The long game, where we cash in down the track. Well, this cashes in now. Yeah, and puts us right back to square one with Figgs. No, square one was before he tried to kill me. And I will make absolutely sure that he knows this is coming from me, not you. How're you gonna do that? Doesn't matter ` I just will. There's no problem. Besides, I've already got something lined up for me and the boys to do. Is this your boys or our boys? Both, actually. My boys are out getting some stuff we need. To do what? Nothing to do with you. You have a job you hate you need to get to so you can abandon your family. (SCOFFS) I don't hate my job. You hate my mother. Well, that's different. And when I'm at the Galleria, she's not at the Galleria, so I win ` and get paid. Bonus. No kids, no Mum, no me. Aw, poor petal, forced to spend the day with his kids. Bugger off to your slave job. Oi, enough of the slave-job shit. Try 'gainful employment'. And this stuff you've got planned with the boys, does it involve drinking beer and watching the rugby on TV? When have you ever known me to ever watch a game of rugby? I just thought maybe cos it's the final. Means nothing to me. That's not very bloody patriotic. Yeah, patriotism is for suckers. Morning. Breakfast, Phineas? Yeah, nah, I'm good, Rita. I don't eat before a... You know. Anyway, we should shoot through. Roger that. So, what is this mystery job? Some rich guy wants his suit altered on a Saturday? Above and beyond. Money calls, I listen. Batman with a tape measure. Seriously, what can't wait till Monday? The captains of industry I serve. The captains of industry are the captains of dick, darling, and not the good kind of dick. Tell them to go fuck themselves, and we'll go eat ice cream on Mission Bay. I can't. Promises have been made. This Rugby World Cup will be the death of rugby. What, by making it too popular? Rugby's meant to be about us playing the Boks on the high veldt. Who gives a shit if the All Blacks play bloody Uganda? Were Uganda at the World Cup? Or Japan. Who gives a shit about Japan? It's not like one day we're all going to be watching a Rugby World Cup in Japan, are we? No, rugby's a game played between, like, five countries, and we should let them get on with it. Ah. So what you're saying is rugby is essentially incestuous. I never said anything about sex. Just cos you gays have sex on the mind all the time. (BRAKES SQUEAK) You get what we need? Yeah. All right, what we're doing today is very simple ` walk in, walk out with a large amount of cash. No safes. The money's sitting there, waiting? In a manner of speaking. Phineas? It'll be in a briefcase. Grab the bag, we're gone. No one guarding the bag? Two, maybe three guys. And they'll just let us take it? They will need some persuasion. Since when did we turn into stand-over guys? These are just for show ` so Phin reckons. Yeah, the guys look tough, but mostly, they're not. So this job is one you found? It's Frankie Figgs. Don't we have a truce? Who runs this gang, me or Rita? I don't wanna make that choice. Yes Rita organised, in her words, a truce, but it was never real and it was never gonna last. The point is, we have an opportunity to hit this prick, and we're gonna take it. Phin? Mr Figgs likes to gamble. He plays cards with his rich mates. And back when I was working for him, he was planning the mother of all card games, if the All Blacks made the Rugby World Cup final. Which they have. So today Mr Figgs and his mates go to the match; card game's after. None of this will come back on any of you. You guys remember what he did to me, right? Cos I have no fucking idea. All I know is I woke up in hospital, in a world of pain. And I still have these blinding headaches. And gaps in my memory. I end up staring at myself in the mirror ` what are the names of my grandkids? What fucking day is it? This prick owes me. Now, are you in or not? Yeah. All the way, mate. Bring it on. For sure. Thanks. You're not gonna cry, are you, Ted? I've gone crazy, not soft. Let's go. (SQUEALS) Mein fuhrer. Supplies for ze building of whatever ze fuck we are building. We've been driving round the North Shore all night, gathering. I need a nap. What about all the stuff still in the truck? You and Eric can bring it around. Oh, timber's heavy when it's in long bits. So what are we actually building? If I have to spend every bloody Saturday looking after these kids, then they need to learn how to play on their own without bugging me every 10 minutes. To be fair, Saturdays mean little to us. We work when there is work, so the days of the week do not matter. If we actually had a job other than scavenging on building sites, which we're don't. Yeah, well I can't organise stuff and babysit, can I? Why not? You know, throw 'em in the deep end. Start 'em young. We're building a fort, Eric, so they can play in it. And if it comes with a room that we can lock them in, then they can play in there and I can get on doing what I should be doing. So we're building a prison? Mm. Isn't that tempting fate, when it comes to the West family? Just get the bloody stuff from around the side of the house so we can get started. Oi, shift yo ass. She's looking more and more like her half-brother every day. What half-brother? Oh, don't worry ` they can't hear us. Pascalle doesn't have a half-brother. OK. Cool. Only me. I brought cakey things from that place. You know the one. Weren't you going away for a bit? Bit of an overreaction. You think so? One bad night. Sorry, by the way. Only me ` bearing gifts and news. So how come you're still getting duty-free? Contacts. Not that I'll be needing them soon, because the news is I'm going back to work. They need me. Always nice to be needed. Well, I did have to ring and ask a few times, but eventually they said I could start work again ` just short trips round the Pacific, nothing too far away from home. But away from Brian's mother. She's back in Tauranga, bless her. Shall we have a wee gin now? Surely it's not too early, not on a Saturday. You probably think I'm some kind of alkie, but I'm not really ` I just needed to get out of the house. Brian's got his dojo round to watch the rugby. When I left they were on the lawn flipping each other. Is that a sex thing? No, they just like to throw each other round. And my kids ` they like to throw them round too. The kids adore it. Makes them giggle, being flung. Means I'm... I'm surplus to requirements, really. Will you be having a gin, then? It's gin ` not exactly heroin. So yes, I'll have a gin. Thank you, Carol. Argh! And we should have a really tall tower that we can lock princesses in. OK, that's not creepy at all (!) Not as creepy as your moat idea. What's creepy about a moat? Moats are cool ` literally, because you can swim in them. People drown in moats, Falani. They used to put failed jesters in sacks and throw them into the moat. Kinda like when we met you, in a sack, being thrown off a bridge. Are you still having those nightmares? Look, are we gonna build this thing or not? Cos if not, I'm gonna light this bad boy. Eh? Yeah, it'd be a shame to wake Pascalle with the sound of hammering. If she's anything like Brandon, he can sleep through anything. Or so I've been told. OK, all systems go, then. Just don't give it to Van again. Why not? He really dug it. Anne-Marie! Oh. Hi, Cheryl. Sorry ` mouth full. How are you going? Pretty good, thanks. How's Brandon? OK. Haven't seen you at Plunket lately. We don't go much any more. You know how it is. Hey, it's nice to bump into you, but, you know... Sure. Sure. We should get the kids to play together sometime. We should. See you. (INTENSE MUSIC) So, who are all these pricks? Rich bastards. Rich dangerous bastards? Just rich, I reckon. How many people inside? Couple, maybe three. Fun and games ahoy. OK, lads, let's get this done. Do not fucking move! Do not even think about moving, and this will go a whole lot better. What he fucking said! It's not your money ` don't be a hero. Check the case. See? Wasn't so hard, was it? You tell Figgs if he wants to win his money back, Ted West will be at the Rusty Nail. But come alone. Oi! Jesus! Run! Go, go, go! Oh fuck! Shit! Get in! Fuck! Where the fuck did he come from!? Thanks for the heads-up there'd be a nutter with a gun, Phineas (!) Did we get the money? Yes, we got the money. And what was that shit about. "I'm Ted West and meet me at the Rusty Nail"? Phin, you OK? It hurts. What does, mate? Shit. Press on it ` stop the bleeding. That's what I'm trying to do, cockhead! We gotta get him to a hospital! Hospitals kind of ask questions when it comes to gunshot wounds. What are we meant to do, let him fuckin bleed to death (?) Oh, don't say that! I'm sorry, mate. I'm sorry. I'm taking him to the hospital. No, taihoa. Lefty's right ` we need to figure out how to manage this. I know where we can go. It's not a hospital. You can't beat perfect pizza. That's why Dom Pizza Checker quality-checks your order then shows you a photo before it's boxed. Test us with up to 60% off pizzas, It's bullshit that this country defines itself through a bunch of Neanderthals running around a paddock. Men and their fucking competitive instincts ` that's what's wrong with everything. Jeez, don't sit on the fence, Ngaire (!) It's true, and you know it. If a woman ran this country, we'd be bloody better off for it. I don't think women are allowed to run the country, are they? Yes, Carol, we are. We have been ever since they let us vote. I don't actually vote. I tried once, and I was in there so long trying to decide, they sent a man in to see if I was OK. Excuse me. Ngaire's on fire today. Isn't she just! (DOOR SHUTS) Fuck. (SIGHS) (SIGHS) Jesus, Ngaire, get your shit together. Do you think we should talk to her? About how she's being a total cow? I was thinking more about the problem she seems to have. Go for your life. (FOOTSTEPS APPROACH) So, how are you doing there, Ngaire? Box of fluffies, thank you, Carol. Thanks for fucking asking. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) Get him inside. Come on. Come on. Got an operating theatre in your place, have you? Yeah, the next best thing. Jesus, Phin, you weigh a bloody ton. Oh, sorry, Ted. It's all right, mate. Just stay with us, OK? You need to ditch the van. What about Phineas? Will will take care of Phin. Who's Will? Get him on the table. You could have picked them up and moved them! You said table ` this is the table. Barbarian. OK. Look, Phin, I promise you'll be OK, all right? Fuck. Good. Will. This is my friend Will. This is Phineas. Phineas has been shot. For reasons I will go into later, he can't go to a hospital. Will is a doctor who for reasons that don't matter... Thing is, he's an Emergency Doctor who deals with shit like this. Will, I promise I will explain, but right now Phineas is bleeding out on my dining table. Help? Get the kit from my room. Yeah. OK. Phineas, I'm a doctor. I need to examine you, OK? Yeah. OK, hang in there, Phineas. It was a pistol, if that helps. Yeah, a gun's a gun ` it's not important now. Just saying cos once I got shot with a pistol in the buttock. Gloves, yeah. Keep looking at me, Phineas. You keep looking, OK? You just hang in there, Phineas. OK, Phineas, we need to take off your pants, OK? Yeah. Fuck! Scissors. Yeah. Here. OK. Just hold him still. I need to look at this. Now, it's nothing personal here, Phineas, but this will hurt. Fucking hurts enough already! I bet. Got him? Hang in there, mate. Just hang in there, mate. I didn't know there'd be a gun, Ted. Yeah, I know. I don't even know who that guy was. It's OK, mate. Now, the good news is that it's a through and through. Remarkably, it hasn't hit the femoral artery ` otherwise you'd be dead by now. That's good. Yeah. The bad news is that I need to stop the bleeding and close the wounds. Sounds good to me. But I have nothing that resembles anaesthetic except Bilkey's brandy. Yeah, well, a drink sounds good to me. Good man. (INTENSE MUSIC) Vodka? Cheers. Argh! Fuck! (GROANS) Hold him still. Argh! Jesus! Mother of... Oh! Come on, Carol ` admit it. You still love him. I care about Phineas, yes, but I don't love him in the way you mean. In the way that you wanna suck his cock every time you look at him. I love Brian now. And his cock. That twerp? Give me a break. Oh! Why don't you give us all a break, Ngaire, and go home? I'm sorry? You're being a bitch, but even worse, you're being fucking boring. Up yours, Rita West. Go home, get some sleep, do some drugs, whatever you want ` just stop yelling at us. Fuck you! Fuck the lot of you and the horses you rode in on. Yeah, great to see you, as usual, Ngaire (!) (DOOR SLAMS) I'm not sure she should be driving. Ngaire! Ngaire! I don't know a lot about cars, but I'm pretty sure you've flooded it. You just have to wait a bit. Or I could drive you. That might be safer, don't you think? OK, you drive. Good. Home, then, for a bit of a rest. What? Oh, sure, fine. Whatever. But we need to go somewhere first. Why? Less questions, more go! Falani, did you fart? I'm not sure. How can you not know? Sometimes they creep out. Well, it wasn't me. I know the smell of all my different farts. You have different farts? Depends on what food groups I've been eating ` you know, bourbon farts, beer farts. The guilty party is over there. I'll change her, if you like. I don't mind changing babies. I help Anne-Marie all the time with Brandon. Even by your standards, offering to change the nappy of another man's daughter ` that's just wrong. All I'm saying is I don't mind poo. Also deeply suss. Oi! You two, inside ` now. (POIGNANT MUSIC) Pascalle is asleep, and the boys are drawing in our room. Good for them. I need to shoot out for a bit. So, why are you telling me? Jesus, are we gonna play this game every time? The only game I'm playing is the one where I get to enjoy some peace and quiet for a bloody change. Well, lucky that's a game you can play while you're looking after the kids, eh? Isn't that meant to be your job? Apparently. But this can't wait. Wanna tell me what all that 'Ted West will be at the Rusty Nail' bullshit was about? He would have known it was us. Phineas is kinda hard to miss. And they didn't. Figgs owes me. Isn't that why we took his money? I want him to look me in the eye and know what he started. And you think he's gonna show up at the Rusty to do that, do you? He fancies himself as a big swinging dick ` he can't resist. Alone? Yeah, he'll come alone. And winning his money back? That's what's gonna get him there. The money we all stole, that Phineas took a bullet for. Look, if he wins, I'll pay you back out of my own pocket, OK? But he's not going to. Cos you're one of the greatest fucking gamblers of all time. Make sure Phin doesn't die. Ngaire, Carol. Sorry. We won't be long. Anything I can help with, Ngaire? Out of my way. Sorry? You heard ` scoot! Hey! Hey, I don't think so! Ngaire's just looking for something. There are no drugs here, Ngaire. You've used it all, haven't you? Don't be fucking ridiculous. I left stuff, and now it's gone. Well, maybe you put it all up your nose and forgot about it cos you're fucked in the head. No, no, Ngaire's just a bit stressed ` that's all. I left stuff here in case, and now it's gone. Well it's nothing to do with me. Like fuck! Did you sell it? Jeez, Ngaire. The coke or the money, bitch! Oh shit! You little twat! OK, time to move on, I think. Dead! You are fucking dead to me! Ngaire. Argh! Argh. One more place we need to go. We are going home. Carol, either fucking drive or get out of the car so that I can. Ngaire, please. Drive! (ROCK MUSIC) It was back in the '60s, and I fell in with Lefty. We fell in with Ted, and that's when it got serious. And here I was, thinking you were a mild-mannered tailor. Who knew? Not many. And now you. Your secret life is safe with me. (CHUCKLES) Ted's gone off to his showdown at the saloon. Yeah, I think we can let him have this one ` don't you? Except if he loses the fucking money, then he gets a bollocking. Good job, by the way. Oh, just a little something that I learned at a place called medical school. You must see some weird shit at A&E. I heard a story once about a TV presenter and a Vegemite jar. Yeah, well, what goes on in the A&E room stays in the room, I'm afraid. Just like on the rugby pitch. It's called azidothymidine ` AZT. It's new, and it seems to help. With the AIDS? HIV. I've read about it in the paper. Yeah, there's been a lot of stuff in the paper ` most of it not helpful. So Phineas O'Driscoll, the biggest poof hater in New Zealand` Oh, there's plenty of competition for that title, Lefty. ...just had his life saved by a gay doctor with AIDS. An HIV-positive ex-doctor who was drummed out of the health service because of that status. I wanna see the look on Phin's face when he finds out. Hello? Shh! He's asleep, finally. Can I see him? I won't wake him. You always say that, and you always do, so no. Have another word to your brother. What's he done this time? There's a part of his brain that doesn't... It's like he doesn't get what's going on here. I saw your missus today. And? Exactly. It gives me the shits too, every time it happens. Still better than the world of hurt if Sparky shoots his big mouth off one time to the wrong person. Or you could leave Cheryl and we could get the hurt over and done with. You know that's not happening. Then maybe I should remove me from the situation. Also not happening, because I love you too much to let it. That's not fair. Works for me. And the women in your life? We're all working it out as we go along. Oh, are we (?) You know in all these years, you've never invited me to your house. I think our worlds are best left at the office, so to speak. I thought it would be way gayer. OK, we have a problem. He's lost a lot of blood. Well, it was pissing everywhere, all over the van floor. And now he's slipping into hypovolemic shock. Well, that doesn't sound good. We need to get him to a hospital. No. Too many questions, and the cops will get involved. You do understand he could have a heart attack and die, right? Can we give him some of our blood? Do you know his blood type? No. Are either of you guys O Negative? Not me. No idea. Not knowing Phineas' blood type, O Negative is the magic water we need. Then where do we go to get some of this magic water? Here, here! Stop, stop! OK. (RAPS AT DOOR) Oh, shit. Shit. Shit. Ngaire! (BASSY MUSIC PLAYS) You look like shit. I don't have anything for you. Hello. Whatever you've got, I'll take it. I don't know what you're talking about, crazy bitch. Don't give me that bullshit, Lyudmilla. Just give me the fucking drugs, OK? I don't think this nice woman has what you think she has` Like fuck, she doesn't! She's high as a kite ` look at her ` so she's fucking holding. OK, you come inside. You stay here. Do you think he's alive? OK now? You understand this? I have no drugs to sell you. Of course you do, you lying whore! Jesus, drug pig, listen to what I say ` no drugs for you! Give me what I want, Siberian slut! Fuck off! Ngaire, no! She's just had a really bad day. We are really, really sorry. And we are leaving now, aren't we, Ngaire? Fuck you! Fuck you, Lyudmilla! Fuck you! Jesus, Ngaire, get a grip. Getting killed by a mad Russian is not on my list of things to do today. Stay! Fuck you! Lovely to meet you. One more place we have to go. No, Ngaire. No more places. Only me! Fuck. Is that...? Shh. (SIGHS) Oh, hey. I was at the pub but I got bored, so I thought I'd come visit Brandon. He's asleep. And so was I. OK, well, why don't you go back to bed, and then when the B-man wakes up, him and I can, uh... Tell you what, Sparky ` why don't you and me leave your sister in peace? We'll go for a little walk. She's a good woman, your sister. I'd hate for her to get hurt. Yeah, me too. Cheryl's a great woman too. Yeah, the best. And obviously, I'd hate for her to get hurt. Well, if you don't want anyone to get hurt, why are you doing it, then? Doing what? Cheating on Cheryl with Anne-Marie. Is that what I'm doing? Or am I cheating on Anne-Marie with Cheryl? I don't know. They're both mothers of my children. Are you saying I should abandon my children? Of course not. But you seem to think I need to pick one or the other. Isn't that what usually happens in these situations? What situations? When a guy has kids with two women. And do you think that's fair, that one of the women and my child or children gets left abandoned, because that's what you say has to happen? No, I never said that. What if he loves both of the women? What if he loves having two families? What if they give him different things, good things? What if he wants to hold on to that? How far should he be willing to go to protect that, is what I'm saying. I'm not gonna tell anyone, I swear. I've already told you that. Can you do that, Sparky? Because if you mess this up for me and your sister and Cheryl, I don't know what I'd have to do ` probably kill you. (CHUCKLES) (ROCK MUSIC) (UPBEAT MUSIC) A 28-minute bike ride needs the same amount of energy as it takes to power three gaming consoles. What? What's going on? Where am I? Bilkey's. He has a wine cellar. Did you know that? What a fruit! (SIGHS) The last thing I remember, we was going to the hall, the card game. You got shot. In the leg. (GROANS) I was dreaming. I was a bear in a forest,... and my leg got caught in the trap,... and then this fairy came and helped me get the trap off my leg. The thing is, Phineas, sometimes ` sometimes dreams, they do come true. My heart's going like the clappers. I thought you doctors were meant to remain calm at all times. Can I tell you a secret? If you feel the need. I'm a teensy bit turned on by this. It's good to know. I can see why you do it. Well, it's more money for me than sexual gratification. Do you remember what to do once we get in there? You do the talking; I'll get what we need. What if someone tries to stop us? I think we'll be OK on that front. So, you ready? As I'll ever be. (CLEARS THROAT) Right. Sorry for interrupting, ladies and gentlemen, but there is no need for alarm. We are but members of a passing coven of vampires who have fallen upon hard times and are in need of a little sustenance. We will not harm you in any way. How come you're out in the daylight? What? If you're vampires, how come you're out during the day? Some vampires, special vampires, can go out in the daylight. Not in any book I've read. Well, maybe you shouldn't believe everything you read in books. Got it. All right. Our work here is done. Thank you for your patience. Giving blood is a good thing to do. Vampires can't eat biscuits either. Oh, for fuck's sake. (RHYTHMIC MUSIC) I'm so horny right now. Maybe don't share that with the group when we get back, eh? Good to see you're alive, Bert. Shouldn't you have a warrant or something before coming in here? So it wasn't you, eh? Wasn't me what? Took the bullet. There's quite a blood trail outside that hall. Dunno what you're talking about. Is it Lefty's? I hope it is ` never really liked him. Nup, still no idea. I presume you're just back from torching the van. Me? Nah, I love cars. Bert, you need to get it through your thick skull that I'm here as a` Come on ` that's a bit rude. I'm here as your friend. This chop shop of yours ` I've known about it for months; could have busted you a dozen times by now. See that's where you're wrong, because I'm a car enthusiast who enjoys restoring old classics` Shut the fuck up and listen. Your lot and my lot, we have a common enemy, especially after today. So I need you to take a message to Ted and Rita. I know your mob hit Frankie Figgs today. I know this because we have a guy in his organisation. What you need to know is that he will eat you alive, and then spit out the bones. You're not in his league. (INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS) (TENSE MUSIC) (MUSIC CONTINUES) (INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS) Mr West. How was the game? The good guys won. I'm more of a league man, myself. I see you have my money. Well, technically, it's my money now. Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree. After what you did to me, I was owed this. No idea what you're talking about` We both know what happened; this is about how we move forward. Well, I sorted that out with your wife. Not to my satisfaction,... as the one who took the beating. Your family stole from me, Mr West. Which is why I'm giving you a 50/50 chance. See, I'm an honourable bloke at heart,... so I acknowledge our part in things, and then I like to move on. And you seem like a man... who fancies a wager. Go on. We cut. Highest card keeps the cash. Then we walk away square. Oh, come on. You were gonna gamble the money anyway, so what's the bloody difference? Fair enough. After you. Oh no. Seeing as it's your money, you have the right to go first. (SCOFFS) (TENSE MUSIC) (MUSIC CONTINUES) (MUSIC FADES) (SCOFFS) Well, you've got cojones ` I'll say that for you, Ted. Now we're done, our two families? We're done. (ROCK MUSIC) Where's the money? Let him enjoy thinking he's at the big boy's table for a minute. Until I fucking crucify him. You all right, love? You're very quiet. No, I'm fine. Everything's fine. Careful, it might be a bit hot. No, it's good. Everything's good. Your sammies were pronounced 'ace' and Grandma Rita the best sandwich maker ever. I know that's complete bullshit. Yeah, Van's wearing his one as a hat. I do have a question for you, though. Yeah? How come, when I went out to hang out the washing, there's half a bloody lumberyard on my lawn? It's a fort. Or a prison, depending on how you look at it. Not in my backyard is how I look at it. Make it disappear. Fair enough. Do you know anyone looking for building supplies? I can make a call, for a cut. Busy day? It had its ups and downs. How're the kids? All in one piece. Mm. Job done, then. Oh, there was this one woman came in. I had to punch her in the face. Yeah, total mad cow, ripping the place apart, so I smacked her. It was great. There is no way I am leaving her on her own. God knows what would happen. There is also no way I am taking her to my place. My kids would have nightmares for the rest of their fucking lives. Sorry? Yeah, that's her. (ROCK MUSIC) I'm going to live, right? Yeah, you're gonna live. And I'm not going to get a disease? I took all the precautions you'd normally take. You're really good at this. Yeah, I am. So why'd they fired you? Fear, ignorance ` take your pick. I was saving that bottle for a special occasion, you Philistine. What, like your wedding? Like that's gonna happen. Jeez, he still lives. And is that briefcase for show or do we actually have the money? I told you ` he thinks he's a big swinging dick. Careful ` you'll get Bilkey excited. He was always gonna play ` couldn't help himself. So he was always gonna lose. No, there was actually a 50/50 chance he'd win. Not once he agreed to go first. Cos what he didn't know is that deck, sitting there, calling to him, was ordered, lowest to highest, top to bottom. All I had to do was cut closer to the table than him. What if he'd shuffled the deck? Big swinging dicks are all about the moment. This is for you. Oh. No, I couldn't. You can, and you will. You saved our friend's life. When you take this, you become one of us. (INTENSE MUSIC) Living the outlaw life. (LAUGHS) Rita! Bert's here. (BIRDS CHIRP) (INTENSE MUSIC) Did something go wrong? Kinda. Ted's OK, I think. You think? Well Phineas was the one who copped it. What do you mean, copped it? Well, he kinda got shot. What?! Bilkey is dealing with it. How is Bilkey dealing with it? Well, I don't fucking know, do I? I was dealing with the van. Anyway, we've got bigger problems to worry about. Bigger than Phineas getting shot?! Yeah, way bigger. You punched Ngaire? Yeah, she was being a psycho, so I punched her. What's wrong with that? Man, you're a total bad-ass. Who knew? Yeah, and don't you forget it. Anyone who crosses me better watch out, including you. So are you gonna fuck me or not? I'm too scared not to. Good boy. (CAR ENGINE STOPS) Out you get, sailor. What's that meant to mean? Nothing. Didn't sound like nothing to me; sounded like you were talking about that In The Navy song. I know what you're saying, Lefty Left Nut. Good to see the pain medication's still working. You're not gonna tell, are you? How a gay guy poked round inside me. Whatever you want, Phin. Oh my God. Are you OK? A gay guy poked inside me. What? But it went straight through, so I'm OK. You're so beautiful, so beautiful. Please excuse Phineas. He's very out of it right now. I'm just glad he's alive. Mate. Mate. Hey, when you were rooting my wife, did she do that thing where she sticks her thumb in`? OK, Phineas, I think you should probably have a little rest, OK? I am a bit tired. Yeah, good idea. (GRUNTS) So are we at war again? Truce intact. Reparations paid. Still got it. Bert, tell Ted what you told me. And you, come with me. This is out of the blue, Rita. Dream on. Yours, I believe. I guess I might have a wee problem. Did she say why they're after him? Nah, she was being super-cagey. So you tell Ted and Rita they have a choice, work with us, help us nail this bastard, and we will save you from dying at his hands. Tell them the choice is that simple. (POP MUSIC PLAYS) # What's going on? It's only ever a problem when we have coke, right? And after today, Lyudmilla won't ever sell to us again, so problem gone, really. # What's going on? # I can feel your heartbeat. # Every day, # you can change your life, now. # Anyway, # you can feel your heartbeat... Can I at least go home and change first? They need to see you how you are, love. # You can change your mind. # So fine, so fine. # What's going on? (GUITAR SOLO) (MUSIC CONTINUES) (STRINGS SOAR) # You could disappear. # You could disappear. # What do they call it? Call what? What they say. What who says? I remember ` between the devil and the deep blue sea. Yeah,... that sounds like us. Word to the wise ` don't go in the bathroom. Oh shit. Death feels like a pretty good option right about now. It's all the evil in her is coming out through her skin. Only me. Fuck off, Carol. Dance with me. Ew! Stop rubbing against me. A box came for you. When you say someone tried to hold up the Galleria...? Hold up as in rob with a gun. Hand over the money! You messed with the wrong people. Are we working with the cops or not?
