Transcript

00:01First day in America and we're in federal custody.

00:05Joe bailed us out but the DA wanted to throw the book at Barry

00:09and then after all these years we were back in a hut

00:13and quickly regressed into infantile behaviour.

00:17The medicine man blessed the ground, they gave us an honour dance

00:22and we started.

00:24We loved this place, although Barry was still stressed by the drug bust.

00:29And the local rednecks didn't like us being there.

00:32Oh yeah.

00:33But our biggest problem was getting steel workers.

00:36We went to Vegas to talk to them.

00:38And it was Oz's finest hour.

00:41It wasn't Neville's.

00:42He got hung up on a tart who worked in a chicken ranch.

00:46And the young wineman disappeared.

00:59All right.

01:00Let's go.

01:02Cheже valeur

01:03It flows

01:05Well, I haven't seen it because there's a lot of money here in a row.

01:08And today we've covered meat.

01:09Big up…

01:10blowing blowing blowing blowing най'm

01:12했어요

01:13I'm going to need a search party, Billy,

01:41with flashlights and flares.

01:44Call the highway patrol in St. Clair,

01:46see if they'll lend us a chopper.

01:48Okay, Joe, I'll get right on it.

01:50Okay.

01:51Later, Joe.

01:53I reckon he must be concussed.

01:55Otherwise, why didn't he just walk straight back onto the road?

01:59It'll be dark soon, poor sod.

02:02Rattlers won't be a problem.

02:04Why?

02:05Rattlers sleep at night.

02:08I like the sunshine.

02:10It's one less thing for women to worry about.

02:13It's what I'm saying.

02:24Now, thank you very much, sir.

02:26You come back again real soon.

02:27Thank you, ma'am.

02:28Listen, is your friend that nervous-looking guy?

02:31Talks funny like you?

02:32Aye, that's him.

02:33He won't be long.

02:35Trust me.

02:36You come back for what you didn't get this morning?

02:38Yeah.

02:42So where have you been since I saw you last?

02:44Vegas.

02:45Did you win big?

02:46Is that what did the trick?

02:47No.

02:48I don't gamble.

02:50I just want you.

02:51Yeah?

02:52Oh.

02:53You better zip it up, cowboy.

02:55Buddy says it's an emergency.

02:56That's all we know.

02:57Police are out searching for him now.

02:59Your phone was in your pocket, by the way.

03:00What?

03:01Your phone was in your pocket where it always was.

03:03What sort of an excuse was that?

03:05I think I left it in there.

03:06I mean, if you're gonna have a shag, like doing it and enjoy it, man.

03:21How quick were you gonna do it with me and him sat out there in the car park?

03:23Shut up, boss.

03:24In, oh, bosh.

03:25Hardly time with the talk to wash your nub.

03:27Well, maybe that's all he wanted.

03:28Ah!

03:29Piss off the Perry.

03:30Tety, tety, boy.

03:31Oh, hey.

03:32You'd have thought they could do better than this, Bob.

03:34I mean, they're Indians, aren't they?

03:35Should have found a spore or something by now.

03:36In the movies, maybe.

03:37Yeah.

03:38Yeah.

03:39Yeah.

03:40Yeah.

03:41Yeah.

03:42Yeah.

03:43Yeah.

03:44Yeah.

03:45Yeah.

03:46Yeah.

03:47Yeah.

03:48Yeah.

03:49Yeah.

03:50Yeah.

03:51Yeah.

03:52Yeah.

03:53Yeah.

03:54Yeah.

03:55Yeah.

03:56I mean, there's nothing by now.

03:57In the movies, maybe.

03:58These people live in houses.

03:59They break rocks.

04:00Half of them works as croupiers in the casino.

04:02Yeah.

04:03But even so, you had thought they'd have had ingrained native skills.

04:07Yeah.

04:08It's all changed, you daft tosser.

04:09They don't 80 bison for their supper either.

04:12They go to Burger King.

04:21What's happened?

04:22Where is everybody?

04:23They're heading back. I called the search off till dawn.

04:27Well, what have you been doing? Have you just been sat there stuffing your face?

04:32Just a little snack.

04:34It was a very stressful day, Frank, yeah?

04:36Stressful for Wyman?

04:38Me too, if you must now.

04:40The lawyer's been on the phone from Phoenix.

04:42You lot are off the hook.

04:43There are no charges to be bought, et cetera, et cetera.

04:46Brilliant.

04:47That's one to choke her up in the wind, Colin.

04:49That's all right for some, it's neat.

04:50I'm going to take a polygraph test.

04:52Well, that's fantastic, man. You're innocent.

04:55Be a piece of piss.

04:56They're not foolproof, Dennis. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

04:59Don't be nervous.

05:00Because I think that I'm mean.

05:02The complete thing that I'm mean.

05:04I tell you, it's innocent men on death row because they've flunked a polygraph test.

05:09I've never had any good at exams at school.

05:16Shit.

05:17I wouldn't want to be out there.

05:22Oh, my God.

05:24Oh, your God.

05:50I don't know.

06:20I don't know.

06:50I don't know.

06:52I don't know.

06:57Barman?

06:58Are you alright?

07:01I don't know.

07:03Keep still.

07:05Can you open your mouth?

07:10Little bit?

07:12Just a little bit.

07:17How many fingers?

07:21Three.

07:22Three?

07:23Mm-hmm.

07:24Near enough.

07:28He's okay.

07:30He's okay.

07:31He's got a mild concussion and he's a bit dehydrated.

07:45The doctors are with him right now.

07:46Just give him a minute.

07:47Okay?

07:48Yeah.

07:49Thanks.

07:50Thanks very much.

07:51Thanks, love.

07:52So, no one knows what happened.

07:56Maybe he was abducted by aliens.

08:00What?

08:01Well, you know, this neck of the woods.

08:04Arizona.

08:05New Mexico.

08:06UFO central, isn't it?

08:08How do we ain't bollocks, man?

08:10It came in the night.

08:11It came in the night.

08:12A great blinking fluorescent machine like an ELO album cover sucked him up into the galaxy

08:19where one-eyed men probed and prodded him, taking samples of his vital fluids.

08:24Where does he get it from, huh?

08:27Moxie?

08:28Yeah, sure too.

08:29Are you feeling okay?

08:30Yeah.

08:31Okay.

08:32I'll see you in a couple of hours.

08:33Okay.

08:34How many fingers?

08:41How are you feeling?

08:45Yeah, yeah.

08:46I'm alright.

08:47So, what happened exactly?

08:50Some lunatics followed me from town.

08:52Started rear-ending me.

08:53What?

08:54Ran you off the road?

08:56Yeah.

08:57Don't remember much more than that.

08:59So, how'd you find me?

09:01Tracking tricks I picked up off the Indians.

09:03A footprint here.

09:05A snagged thread there.

09:07A broken twig.

09:08And then I heard the guitar riff and...

09:11Yeah.

09:12I told you, didn't I?

09:14Thanks, yeah.

09:16That's alright.

09:18Look, I'm sorry about what I said the other night.

09:21What was that?

09:22In the hut.

09:23You know what I said about you and Rod?

09:26Oh, forget it.

09:29Whatever it was, I'm sure you were right.

09:32Get well soon, Ciara.

09:35We need you back on the site as soon as possible.

09:38So, my son is coming back to where he swore he'd never return on.

09:43He's gonna go there, he's gonna go there!

09:45He's gonna go there, he's gonna go there!

10:01Hiya, Chua!

10:03So, my son is coming back to where he swore he'd never return on.

10:07Yep.

10:09Did he talk about me?

10:11Well, we could tell there was some history between you, but that's none of our business.

10:16I was a hard father and a bad drunk.

10:20But it's not just me, it's this place the young don't want to know.

10:24Well, he's coming back to you and he's bringing the whole team.

10:26The rest of the bridge, Dr Galveston last night, be here in three days.

10:29So we're steaming, we're nearly there!

10:31You're good people, I knew that when I first met you.

10:34Well, feelings mutual.

10:41Well, that was a bit of a challenge.

10:44Oh my God.

10:46Be here let go.

10:48Yeah.

10:50Come on.

10:51I woke up.

10:53Here they go.

10:57Uh huh.

10:58Come on.

10:59Move.

11:00Andrew on the move.

11:02Oh, does a beer ever taste any better than that, eh?

11:24After a long day's graft.

11:26Good old.

11:27Where's Neb?

11:28He's over at that Nevada knocking shop again.

11:30He was over there on Sunday and all.

11:32Well, you don't know that, Oz.

11:34Eh, I do, actually, Dennis.

11:37I gassed the van up on Saturday, right?

11:39Takes 18 gallons to fill the tank.

11:42There's 25 to the gallon on an open road.

11:45That means it's good for about 450 miles.

11:48Neville borrowed it on Sunday.

11:49When he brought it back, there was just over half the tank left.

11:53Which means about 200 miles gone.

11:56Do the sums.

11:58He had his yard.

11:59You're right, old Hercule Parrott, aren't you?

12:03What's the woman like over there?

12:05Oh, he only sees the one, man.

12:06You know, Neville, probably takes a bunch of flowers and a box of black magic.

12:11I've never been to a brothel.

12:14Never really needed to.

12:16I know what you mean, kids.

12:18I mean, why pay for it when...

12:19When what, Moxie?

12:20When women are all over you, like a pack of Chinese monkeys?

12:24Hey, I've had my share, you know.

12:26All the time I've known you, I've never seen you with a woman.

12:29It's because I'm discreet.

12:30They appreciate that.

12:34All right, Barry.

12:35All right, sir.

12:37It's a beer, someone.

12:38You doing overtime, Barry?

12:41No, cheers, Bob.

12:42I've been going through the shipping inventory.

12:44I thought I made a mistake at first, so I checked and I double-checked.

12:48And there is a discrepancy, lads.

12:50You what?

12:51What do you mean, a discrepancy?

12:54Discrepancy where?

12:55Between what we left on the site at Middlesbrough and what arrived here.

12:58Well, maybe it's still at Galveston.

13:00I've been on the blow and it's not, then.

13:02No, look, we catalogued and colour-coded each section, right?

13:06Yeah.

13:06Well, numbers 1 through to 54 ain't there.

13:10And they never came through US Customs.

13:121 to 54?

13:13Well, that's the first stuff we dug down.

13:14That's right.

13:15That would be the cradle.

13:16The cradle?

13:18It's missing.

13:21This is Geoffrey Granger.

13:31Sorry, I'm not available.

13:33Please leave a message.

13:36Hello, Geoffrey.

13:37This is Oz.

13:38We need to talk, you and me.

13:41Oz, what a pleasure.

13:43Let me just turn down the CD.

13:47They've asked me to go on Desert Island Discs.

13:49Cast Away of the Week, no less.

13:53That's my Mozart pick playing in the background.

13:56Hang on.

13:58The Elvira Madigan Piano Concerto.

14:01And then I thought perhaps a little Billie Holiday, you know, just to show an eclectic range.

14:05Any thoughts?

14:05How's about lying eyes by the eagles, you devious bastard?

14:09Devious?

14:09If we're talking devious, what about that little prank you and your cronies pulled?

14:14We made a deal on the understanding that the bridge was going for scrap.

14:17Not the case, was it?

14:18Or you wouldn't be ringing me from Arizona or something?

14:21Could it have got the second place?

14:22Look, never mind that.

14:23A bit of our bridge is missing.

14:25Eh, Geoffrey?

14:26And I think you probably know where it is.

14:28Couldn't possibly comment.

14:29Shall we cut to the chase?

14:31How much money do you want?

14:33Couldn't possibly comment on that either.

14:34Best if we've sat down, face to face, had a drink, talked it over.

14:39But I'm 6,000 bastard miles away, man.

14:42It's only a 10-hour flight.

14:45Rack up a few frequent flyer miles.

14:47What's your favourite Beatles record?

14:50I ought to have one that, though in truth, I always preferred the Kings.

15:01It's Chip!

15:02Hurry!

15:03It's Chip!

15:04Nice.

15:04Oh, great day, great day.

15:06Lads, this is Chip, chaps.

15:08Hi, Chip.

15:09Hey, mate.

15:10Hiya, Marcy.

15:11Marcy, nice to meet you.

15:12You're welcome.

15:12There's not a man on this side isn't pleased to see you.

15:15Right.

15:15Yeah, there might be one.

15:17How you doing, old man?

15:19I'm good.

15:21You don't know what this means to the nation, Chip.

15:24Guess that's why I'm here.

15:29Right, as far as we're concerned, Chip, it's your ball game from here.

15:32Ned will show you around the side so he can get acquainted.

15:35All right, sounds good.

15:36Let's do this.

15:37All right, thanks to you.

15:38Oh, great day, great day.

15:42What did Granger say?

15:43Oh, he wouldn't talk on the phone.

15:45What does that tell you?

15:46Bastard.

15:46What do we do then, Dennis?

15:48Do we tell Chip and his Steelers or what?

15:50No, no.

15:51They've got enough to be getting on with.

15:52Thank God the cradle's the last piece we need.

15:57I'm going to have to get over there and sort him out, aren't I?

16:00Maybe not the best idea, Oz.

16:02Well, I mean, if you lose your temper, you're going to end up ripping his head off, aren't you?

16:06It's not going to help, is it?

16:07But a tact and diplomacy is required on this.

16:10Well, sure, I can do tactful.

16:12I can do diplomatic.

16:13It's not just that.

16:14Chip's here because of you, not his dad.

16:17He can't piss off when he's just arrived.

16:19Barry's the one that's waned and dained him.

16:20He speaks his language.

16:22I can't go.

16:23I'm on bail.

16:24Didn't have me passport.

16:25I'd be off like a shot.

16:26He'd never be allowed back in again.

16:28Like Roman Polanski.

16:30Roman Polanski's life isn't so arduous.

16:33Lives in Paris, married to a woman half his age.

16:36Long lunches in Boulevard Brasseries.

16:37I'll have a slice of that, mercy, Bacou.

16:39I'll fucking just drag you back to the subject in hand.

16:42I think Nev should go.

16:43I'm sorry.

16:44Me?

16:45Well, good idea.

16:46Don't you think I was giving him a chance to see Brenda and the girls?

16:49Huh?

16:50Oh, I'll get him away from the chicken ranch tart, you mean.

16:53Ah, good idea.

16:54What did you say?

16:54Well, you have been having flits across the border, haven't you, Nev?

16:57Ah, well, Kellyanne's a very canny girl.

16:59Ah, but she's a tart.

17:00She's got a bairn of her own.

17:02She's a hooker.

17:03Shut your face, Oz.

17:04Oh, man, Neville, it's no good trying to sugarcoat it, man.

17:06That's what she does.

17:07That's what she is.

17:09She's a whore, a harlot, a scrubber.

17:11A flatback, eh?

17:12Thank you, Moxie.

17:13It's none of your sodden business, Oz, right?

17:15She's a prostitute, Nev.

17:17She's not Julia Robertson, pretty woman.

17:19Nobody ever was.

17:20All right, Oz, knock it off.

17:22Well, I'm just agreeing with you.

17:23Just leave it, eh?

17:25With all due respect to Neville,

17:26bloke-like Granger will run rings round him.

17:28Well?

17:36I can't see where this is heading.

17:38I'll help you pack.

17:46What's that?

17:47When I look around, I keep picturing me dad in the hut with you.

18:04He was more up than him, to tell you the truth.

18:13Well, anyway, sleep well.

18:16Oh, I don't sleep, Wynum.

18:19Not since the arrest.

18:21You were snoring something savage last night.

18:23Oh, I must have been a fitful doze.

18:34Wynum.

18:36Your dad

18:36was everything that I wasn't.

18:40He was the bee's knees.

18:42A great bloke.

18:47Thanks, mate.

18:53When you lot left,

18:55the rest of the steel was left sitting here for six days.

18:57Aye, but your company was responsible for a security.

19:00Right.

19:00Well, how stringent was it?

19:02Well, we weren't too worried about kids from the council estate

19:04running off with a 20-ton girder.

19:05Listen, the cradle disappeared.

19:07That meant trucks, a crane, manpower.

19:10How could something like that go unnoticed?

19:12Someone must have signed for something.

19:13Look, the bloke's who nicked it

19:15wouldn't leave a paper trail.

19:16Somebody's turned a blind eye here for a bung.

19:18I don't like your choice.

19:19Where's Mr Patterson?

19:21Bollocks!

19:23That's a clever glass of water, please.

19:46This is Agent Mathis.

19:48This polygraph test is being conducted

19:50in the presence of Agent Gerber.

19:51Subject, Barry Spencer-Taylor.

19:54Foreign National.

19:56Indictment reference.

19:57Hashmark 21412.

20:00It's a bit like that film, isn't it?

20:03What film's that, Mr Taylor?

20:04The one with Robert De Niro and Ben Stillo.

20:08I always get confused there.

20:12You didn't see it.

20:13Why don't you get the video?

20:14It's really funny.

20:15It's funny.

20:17You seem to be perspiring, Mr Taylor.

20:18Am I?

20:19Get him a tissue, Brad.

20:32Okay, no trick to this.

20:33Just going to ask you some simple questions.

20:35Your name is Barry Taylor?

20:37Yes.

20:41You're 42 years of age.

20:43What?

20:43I've thought about lying about that on occasion.

20:47Yes or no, Mr Taylor?

20:48Yes, sorry.

20:50You were born in Birmingham.

20:52Birmingham, we say.

20:53Yes.

20:55And you're managing director of your own company.

20:57What if he's still there?

20:58Yeah.

20:59I left it in the hands of six officers and whatever they call them,

21:02the blokes to drive the forklift things, truckers.

21:05Yeah.

21:05Sorry.

21:06Yes.

21:06Ever taken drugs, Mr Taylor?

21:10No.

21:14Well, can I qualify that?

21:16When I say no, I mean, I have had the occasional line of Charlie during a party, you know.

21:25Well, haven't we all?

21:26Oh, yes, and I did have a talk on a spliff at the Reading Rock Festival,

21:33but I'd hardly say I was a regular user.

21:37Yes or no?

21:38Yes.

21:41If you'd called earlier, Dennis, I would have made you dinner at the house.

21:44Oh, don't worry, Pat.

21:45I'm getting eight o'clock to King's Cross.

21:47I'm meeting Granger in the morning.

21:49He's behind it, isn't he?

21:50Well, who else would want to cradle from the transporter bridge, eh?

21:53Souvenir hunters.

21:55I doubt it.

21:56He'll want money.

21:57At least that makes it simple.

22:00Look, I came into this with nought.

22:02It's harder for you and Nev.

22:03I mean, you've put your business at risk.

22:05It was me who pushed him into it, Dennis.

22:07Well, Nev's the sort of bloke who needs a show of nought again, eh?

22:10I've been asking myself that.

22:12Did I push too hard?

22:14It can't be easy for him, Dennis.

22:16Living in a house with four women, he's bound to feel sidelined most of the time.

22:19Well, he's in a hut with six hairy-ass blokes now.

22:26We've been having our problems recently.

22:30Did you know?

22:32Not really, no.

22:36I'm talking about bed.

22:38It's not sexual.

22:40It's more psychological.

22:41You don't like talking about these things, do you, Dennis?

22:49Look, you know, I mean, I know being open is the modern way, but it's not my way, you know.

22:53Too long in a tooth to change.

22:55It's not Neville's, either.

22:59Does he talk to the lads about it?

23:01Not about things like this, no.

23:02That's the difference between the sexes.

23:04Women get together to discuss their problems, men get together to forget them.

23:10Well, I'd hate to think you two couldn't work through this.

23:13You're the only couple that's still married out of all of us.

23:14Hmm.

23:25How do you think they first realised they were good at it?

23:30I mean, there weren't any high-riders when Buffalo roams the plains, were they?

23:33Started with the Malawks up in the northeast.

23:35What, Newcastle?

23:36I thought they were the magpies.

23:38North-east of America, you planet.

23:40They came down to New York looking for work.

23:43They're in an affinity for the most dangerous jobs.

23:47No fear to hype.

23:48You're becoming a right expert on Indian folklore, aren't you, bum?

23:50It's natural, isn't it?

23:52Come to a strange place, absorb the culture.

23:54Oh, yeah.

23:55When we were in Germany, I don't remember you boning up on Beethoven.

23:58You're seeing that laney, isn't it?

24:00That'll be what it is.

24:03Well, what if it is?

24:04She's a good woman, and she's making dinner for Bomber Saturday night.

24:07I think grapefruit juice today, Wendy.

24:11And my usual.

24:14And for you, sir?

24:15I'll have orange juice, please.

24:17A couple of boiled eggs.

24:19Brown bread.

24:20Tea.

24:23Sorry, Bert.

24:30I'm surprised Oz didn't come over.

24:32He and I have always had an understanding.

24:35Well, he's needed where he is, you know.

24:37My PA, Sarah, is disappointed.

24:40She seems to have a soft spot for him.

24:41Probably bunking behind my bag.

24:44But then quite a few things happened behind my bag.

24:46You screwed us on the bridge.

24:48We made our own deal, and we redressed the balance.

24:51Hmm.

24:51I have a feeling you did rather better than that.

24:54Well, what we're making up front isn't making any of us rich.

24:57Up front?

24:58Ugh.

24:59That implies a back end.

25:01Yeah.

25:02Well, I've never found back end deals an attractive incentive.

25:07They tend to disappear with the morning dew.

25:09Much like the one you offered us.

25:11Precisely.

25:12No, you'll have to do better than this.

25:14I am, after all, the hand that rocks the cradle.

25:17Mm-hmm.

25:20Okay.

25:21Look.

25:23We're getting a cut out the take from the casino.

25:27Casino?

25:28What's it got to do with a casino?

25:30That's the whole point of the bridge.

25:32So the punters can get in there faster.

25:35My God.

25:37Well, this puts a whole new complexion on it.

25:39The mafia aren't involved, are they?

25:41Or the Russians?

25:42No, just the choc-a-nose.

25:44That's an Indian nation.

25:47Oh, it's good to see him out here.

25:59You have such a hard time getting away from that computer.

26:03If it hadn't been for him and the computer, I wouldn't be here.

26:06Every day I thank God and the angels for my blessings.

26:09Are you a religious man?

26:12Oh, more so since I got sick.

26:15We're going to fix that.

26:17The doctors can't.

26:18The doctors don't know what we know.

26:20They do not have our traditional herbal remedies.

26:23You mean the stuff that medicine carries in his pouch?

26:25Don't laugh.

26:26We're going to make you well.

26:27But, um, you might have to stay for a while.

26:32Oh, lighten up, man, buddy.

26:41Butch and Sundance, is it?

26:48Yeah?

26:48All you have to do is uproot grown men from their natural soil and they're regressing to childhood.

26:54Oh, lighten up, man, buddy.

26:55For goodness sake.

26:57Lighten up.

26:58All right.

26:59I haven't heard a word about the polygraph.

27:01I'd tell me straight away if I'd pass.

27:03But if you'd failed it, they would have hauled your ass back in there by now, wouldn't they?

27:06So stop brooding.

27:08Anyway, some exercise wouldn't do you any harm.

27:11It wouldn't get me on a bike.

27:13It's the last form of exercise I'd take.

27:15Cycling damages your sexual organs.

27:18Bollocks!

27:19Precisely.

27:19No, I read this research report.

27:22They used ultrasound scans to examine the testicles of 45 mountain bikers

27:27and they compared them with 39 sets of testicles of non-riders.

27:32And all but two of the cyclists had scrotal abnormalities.

27:40He knows a lot of stuff, does Barry?

27:43Aye.

27:44All of it useless.

27:45Yeah.

27:47The luggage from the Los Angeles flight will be in the baggage haul in approximately 10 minutes.

27:59Were you on that London LA flight, Virgin?

28:03Aye.

28:04Oh, I saw you.

28:06Bloody long haul, eh?

28:07Oh, it's a killer.

28:09We both end up here, eh?

28:11Small world.

28:13Yeah.

28:15You on holiday?

28:16Not really, no.

28:17I'm hoping to take a few days off, though.

28:19Have to see Grand Canyon now I've come this far.

28:23How about yourself?

28:24Working.

28:24Putting the bridge up.

28:25Not the bloody transporter bridge.

28:27Yeah.

28:27That's from my neck of the woods, is that?

28:31Is it far?

28:33It's a couple of hours' drive.

28:35Have to pop over and take a look.

28:37Here we are.

28:44Andy, by the way.

28:45Andy Hartley.

28:46Take a spot.

28:47Take a spot.

28:53He's a copper.

28:55What he told you?

28:56I didn't have to, man.

28:58Copper's feet.

28:59Copper's haircut.

29:01All the rank clothes for the climate.

29:02And he's from Teesside, where they found the body.

29:05Well, have you told him you were working on the bridge?

29:08Yes?

29:08Yeah.

29:09How come he never asked you about Moxie, eh?

29:11Well, he wouldn't, would he?

29:12In case I tipped him off.

29:13Look, at the end of the day, that's Moxie's problem.

29:17Grains as ours.

29:18If we have to rewrite our deal to accommodate this bastard,

29:21we're going to end up without anything again.

29:24After all we've been through?

29:26For sodden nothing?

29:27I don't believe it, man.

29:28We might as well pack it all in now and get ourselves off home.

29:32Oh, aye.

29:32We walk away now.

29:33What's left behind her?

29:34A half-finished McCarno set across a gorge.

29:37You think the tourists are going to flock to see that, eh?

29:40Yeah, Den's right.

29:43All Joe's hopes will be crushed in the dust.

29:46What do you think, Oz?

29:48What do I think?

29:53If Granger wants a piece of the casino pie,

29:56he's got to come out here, hasn't he?

29:58Deal with the tribal council and the American lawyers.

30:02So we get to see his ugly face again?

30:04No, he won't like that.

30:06It's not a gourmet restaurant in 500 miles.

30:09Aye.

30:10What's your point, Oz?

30:11Me point is this, then.

30:13We get him out here, right?

30:15Do the deal.

30:15And once we're not for certain that the cradle's on its way out here, then, well, then anything could happen, couldn't it?

30:25Ah, I mean, 6,000 square miles of rock and bloody cactus.

30:31A bloke would very easily disappear in that lot.

30:34Yeah.

30:36I mean, look at Wyman.

30:37It was a miracle I found him.

30:39Well, this gorge could come in handy, couldn't it?

30:41I mean, we bring him out here for a picnic, glass of chilled rosé, then, whoops!

30:46I wasn't joking, Moxie.

30:51Well, I was.

30:52Are you stock-riving mad or what?

30:54Exactly.

30:54Look, that's a line we're not going to cross, Oz.

30:56Oh, well, shite, pissing...

30:59It just does a body good to think about it, that's all, then.

31:02After what he's done to us...

31:04But it's not just about us anymore, man.

31:06Or the money.

31:07Is it not?

31:07No, it's about the choc-a-nose.

31:09We don't finish building this bridge, the casino dies.

31:12And the hopes of the nation goes with it.

31:13But get Granger out here, we'll do what needs to be done.

31:17So you're coming out of my idea?

31:18No!

31:19We'll settle with Granger, whatever it takes.

31:22Oh, man, but then, man...

31:23Dennis is the gaffer.

31:25We'll do as he says.

31:32Hey, Bon.

31:33You remember in the bar when you were talking about that medicine, man?

31:36Yeah.

31:36How he can change things, like...

31:38Shapeshift, they call that.

31:39Yeah.

31:40Change a deer into a dog, for instance.

31:42Oh, they believe so.

31:43I was thinking about having a word with him.

31:50Is it expensive?

31:51What are you talking about, you daft bugger?

31:54Well, Dennis told me that there's a cop out here looking for me.

31:57So I fancy a bit of shapeshifting.

31:59Just till he goes home, like.

32:01Well, more than anything permanent.

32:03Well, if you come back as a dog, Mux, you get fed once a day and you sleep outside the hut, right?

32:11We're not having fleas in here.

32:12Is this the cover?

32:27Morning.

32:29Morning.

32:30Oh, I'm a snorger, eh?

32:31Never realised that you've got me shorts.

32:33Now, I never properly introduced myself yesterday.

32:37I'm Andy Haley.

32:39Detective Inspector, Cleveland Regional Crime Squad.

32:42Oh, it's a sight for sore eyes, isn't it?

32:47You mind if I take a few pictures?

32:48No, for your free.

32:50A lot of interest in this back home, you know.

32:53What's the point of it if you don't mind me asking?

32:55I want a word with one of your lads, Albert Moxie.

33:05Is he about?

33:07Haven't seen him about.

33:09No, I haven't seen him, Nick.

33:10Yeah.

33:11Is there anywhere we could talk?

33:13How this heat.

33:17In there.

33:18Now, according to the Liverpool Police,

33:21a local thug, Mickey Startup,

33:24sent this bloke, Platt, to find your pal.

33:26I've seen him on the site.

33:28Nasty bit of work.

33:29Aye, wouldn't win me points at charm school.

33:32A hitman, according to the file.

33:34Well, we're in this pub, and Moxie went for a slash.

33:37This bloke was waiting for him,

33:38and he gave Moxie a good kicking in the car park.

33:40And then what?

33:41And then I found Moxie bleeding in the car park,

33:43and he didn't know where he was.

33:44You took him back to our motel,

33:46and he was in no shape to go after Platt again.

33:48That's what you're thinking.

33:49Aye, he's not the type, anyway, Moxie, is he?

33:52Huh?

33:53Why no?

33:54I mean, he's never going to be first fly on the dog tour,

33:57if you get me drift.

33:58He's a bit of a glebe,

34:00but he's harmless, isn't he?

34:01Aye.

34:02Then why is he not here?

34:05He's not doing himself any favours, is he?

34:10No.

34:14Smith, excuse me.

34:16I'm there for introduce myself.

34:19The name's Barry, Barry Tyler.

34:21You all right, Barry?

34:22I'm in a bit of bother.

34:25Drug smuggling.

34:26It was a plant.

34:28A malicious act of revenge.

34:29I mean, I ask you, do I look like a drug zoo?

34:32You don't exactly fit the profile now.

34:34Couldn't you arrest me?

34:35I'll be a much bigger feather in your cap than daft old Moxie.

34:39I'd need a warrant, Barry.

34:40An extradition order.

34:41Get one faxed over.

34:43I mean, look, the coke originated in the UK.

34:45I mean, that gives you a reason.

34:46The Yanks might not say it that way.

34:48It's pretty worth a try.

34:48I'm sorry.

34:50Sorry.

34:52Believe me, porridge in Wormwood Scrubs is infinitely more desirable than some terrible American penitentiary

34:57filled with tattooed bikers and Mexican mafiosi in hairnets.

35:01All right, all right.

35:02I'll look into it.

35:04Okay.

35:05You have to change terminals in L.A.

35:08If you miss your connection, there are flights to Vegas every hour.

35:11I booked you in at the Venetian for three nights.

35:14Concierge will arrange a car.

35:16It's about a three-hour drive to the reservation.

35:17Well, I don't intend to linger in Indian country.

35:21White man much prefer Las Vegas with its numerous delights.

35:24I'm sure you'll sample all of them.

35:27Anything you'd like me to take?

35:29A little gift for the virile Oz.

35:32Something in Aspic from Forkham's, or is he strictly a pork pie man?

35:38Why are you doing this to them?

35:40Doing what?

35:41Screwing them.

35:43Just ordinary blokes trying to get ahead.

35:45They tried to put one over on me.

35:47Don't like that.

35:48There's a principle involved.

35:49You don't have any principles, Geoffrey.

35:52You're a conceited, narcissistic phony and a total shit.

35:55I'm going to fire you for that remark.

36:00I've already quit.

36:02This cheque you just signed was two months severance pay.

36:10Hope you get an arrow in your back.

36:12Hope you get an arrow in your back.

36:33Hope you get an arrow in your back!

36:36Here, here, look here, look here.

36:41That crow was there when we left for work.

36:44So?

36:45You reckon it's Moxie?

36:47Is that you, Mox?

36:53I've got an idea what one Granger gets here.

36:56We'll not kill him.

36:58I've accepted that.

36:59But we can still stitch him up.

37:01How?

37:03Blackmail.

37:03You've got Polaroids of you and him in prison.

37:06Yeah, we're going to take some new ones, Nev.

37:08Or better still, a video.

37:11We're going to set a honey trap, lads.

37:13Get Granger in a sexually compromising position.

37:16How are we going to do that?

37:17Well, Nev's got a fantastic in at the brothel, hasn't he?

37:19He's almost got a season ticket down there.

37:21So we'll get his lass, Kellyanne, to set it up.

37:24Right?

37:24Get Granger in a bubble bath with two or three tards doing unspeakables to him.

37:29Every chance you get, you drag a name into the conversation, don't you?

37:33Just so you can slag her off.

37:34Why don't you keep your face out of my life?

37:44Well, I still think it's a canny idea.

37:49There you go, pal.

37:50The longer we live in this hut, the more the old Oz rules.

38:07I thought we'd buried him.

38:10Mind you, you know, it's no secret what she does, you know, Nev.

38:13And, well, it's a cause for concern, like.

38:16Why?

38:17Well, I mean, even if she wasn't...

38:20You know what she is.

38:21I mean, you're a married man, we're kids.

38:24I was just talking to your Brenda a couple of days ago.

38:27Did you say anything?

38:28Why not?

38:28Of course not, dummy daft man.

38:31She said a bit, though.

38:33A bit more than I wanted to hate, I'll be honest with you.

38:36Like what?

38:37Well, just about the pair of you, you know, and problems.

38:42She blames herself a lot, like.

38:44She does, how?

38:46Well, pressuring you and pushing you, trying to change you.

38:51Making you into someone you're not.

38:53Sometimes I wish I was something I'm not.

39:00I think that's been the appeal of Kelly Ann.

39:03Surprised meself as much as you lot.

39:08See.

39:10I thought me problems were about sex.

39:14So when we come out here, on me tod, footloose, fancy free.

39:19I was dead set on getting some.

39:24Well, first time it never happened.

39:27Second time it would have happened, but...

39:30You buzzed us about why, man.

39:32Yeah.

39:34And since?

39:38Since it hasn't happened either.

39:40I've just seen her on her days off.

39:43Movies.

39:45Bowling alley.

39:45What does this tell you?

39:51I'm an idiot.

39:53No.

39:55Means you're thinking about your Brenda, man.

39:58Aye.

40:00Because, you know, if I had had a shack, I'd have had to tell her.

40:06Your problems are more psychological than sexual.

40:10That's pretty shrewd, then.

40:12No, I didn't say that.

40:12That was your lass.

40:13Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

40:15Moxie obviously agrees.

40:21Ha, ha, ha.

40:21Aye.

40:22Ship shift Moxie.

40:23Ha, ha, ha, ha.

40:35Oi.

40:37What?

40:38This is the bastard that ran me off the road.

40:40Here.

40:49Now then.

40:51You may have had a bit of luck.

40:53Ha, ha, ha.

40:54I'll make a change.

40:56The English police have arrested your brother-in-law.

40:58Cardi, is it?

40:59Caddy?

41:02Yeah.

41:03Spoke to the arresting officer.

41:04They're throwing the bucket in.

41:06His best chance of a reduced sentence is to be guilty, which means fessing up to everything.

41:11What?

41:12Including planting the coke and that?

41:14Yeah.

41:15So keep your fingers crossed.

41:16I'll send the file to the feds and a copy to your lawyer.

41:20This is...

41:20Oh, this is...

41:21This is Boston.

41:22Go, Andy.

41:23I know you come up trumps.

41:24Oh, you may sound like Freddie Truman, but there's definitely a bit of Columba in you,

41:28isn't there?

41:28Aye?

41:28Minus a Jackie Mac.

41:29Oh, you lovely man.

41:30I love you.

41:30Ha, ha, ha, ha.

41:32Ha, ha, ha, ha.

41:33Is the owner of a silver GMC pickup in the room?

41:36What the hell's it to you?

41:43Oh, pig fart.

41:45Oh, I think you know what the hell it's to us.

41:47You know what you did to this lad, don't you?

41:49Huh?

41:49You born and I killed him.

41:51Take it outside.

41:53There's no problem, Colleen.

41:54Oh, dear.

41:55Well, let the local police sort this one out.

41:57Absolutely.

41:58Your bar will be a much nicer place with these two dickheads banged up.

42:04I'll give you a fuck.

42:06Hold on, dear, hold on.

42:20Sorry.

42:23Go again.

42:26I'm calling the cops.

42:28I am one room.

42:29What the hell are you doing with your bracelets over here?

42:32A matter for you and my moxie.

42:33I can think of one slippery bastard that would fit better.

42:38Oh, gross.

42:39Let's go.

42:47Let's go.

42:47Stop.

42:49Oh, my God.

42:50Come on.

42:51Oh.

42:51Oh, my God.

42:52Let's go.

42:54Oh, my God.

43:05Sorry, Dawn.

43:25I'm not here, right?

43:31I think the baby's coming.

43:32Not just yet, love, all right?

43:36I mean, ten minutes won't make any difference for you.

43:52How are you, sir?

43:54I've told you you're the oldest man in this nation.

43:57Marvellous, that is.

43:58I've got an aunt in Scarborough who's 86.

44:01Slip of a girl compared to you.

44:02Do you think he might have had me picture took with him?

44:08She's going to have a baby and her sister's at the store

44:10and I don't know the number of the medical centre.

44:13All right, all right.

44:25Oz.

44:25Jumpers.

44:26How are we?

44:27We're jumping in.

44:27How are we?

44:29Um, no hard feelings, I hope.

44:31Not nursing anything in the grudge bank.

44:33Yeah, of course.

44:34Now, business is business, isn't it, Jeremy?

44:36How are we?

44:36I'll introduce you to the troops.

44:37Ah.

44:38This is Dennis, who we have already met.

44:42And this is Lainey Proudfoot of the Tribal Council.

44:45Nice to meet you.

44:46Hello.

44:47And this is Joe Sorgus.

44:49He's like the top kiddie in all of this.

44:50Ah, the man I should be talking to then.

44:52Welcome.

44:54Dennis, are you with me?

44:56Yeah, yeah.

44:56Come on, let's go through, eh?

44:57Cool.

45:02Somebody's having a baby, so you'll have to excuse me.

45:05All right.

45:05Right up.

45:06I'll catch up with you guys later.

45:08All right.

45:08Right.

45:08To the open.

45:13Now, now, now.

45:14Have you got any quarters, chaps?

45:15I didn't bring any change.

45:18Aye.

45:19Ah, there you go.

45:21Lovely.

45:22Here we go.

45:23Our attorneys redrafted the agreement we had with Bridge North.

45:28You'll accommodate yourself.

45:30Paperwork is in my office.

45:31Excellent.

45:34I should be back in Vegas in time for cocktails.

45:36No, no, no, no.

45:36You are our guest and our new partner.

45:39There's a way we celebrate these things.

45:41There is.

45:41Yes.

45:42Aye.

45:43It's called an honor dance.

45:44Hey, hey, hey.

45:45Big deal.

45:46Oh.

45:47Let me get you some refreshments.

45:50What is it?

45:51Some sort of Indian thing.

45:52Is it war whoops and tomahawk?

45:53Yeah, hate wouldn't do to offend them, Lake.

45:56Young virgins brought to my teepee at midnight.

45:59You never know how you look.

46:01Oh.

46:02Ah.

46:05No.

46:06Oh, stop.

46:07Now.

46:09Now.

46:10You got that change on me?

46:12Dennis, don't be so petty.

46:14You were great in there.

46:24I was bloody useless.

46:27I've had some practice.

46:29Help with our youngest.

46:30Get away.

46:31Ah.

46:31Well, I couldn't make it to the hospital, so...

46:33This is our key.

46:37Sixteen-month now.

46:38Big lad, eh?

46:40Just like his dad.

46:41Yeah.

46:42Look at them rugby league calves, eh?

46:43Oh, aye, yeah.

46:44Oh, aye.

46:47So.

46:49Albert.

46:52What are you doing up here?

46:53Just trying to keep out of your way.

46:55How'd you find me?

46:56I knew you'd need a roof over your head in this heat.

46:59You've got no jurisdiction here, you know.

47:01They're their own nation.

47:02You can't force me to go back if I don't want to go.

47:05You've no reason to.

47:06I got the old story from the rest of the lads.

47:10Hey.

47:11What about the Liverpool police?

47:13They love you.

47:14You what?

47:14You gave them all that stuff that nailed Mickey's start-up.

47:17Oh.

47:18Oh, that's great.

47:20Oh, that is a relief.

47:22And they can't prove I took any cash.

47:24Which I didn't.

47:26Well, I might have.

47:29But it all went to a good cause.

47:31Oh, sure it did.

47:34We should get back.

47:36But if I do later...

47:37Things're making fun.

47:49We should get back.

47:50We should get back.

47:51We should get back.

47:54What?

47:55Go on, you're the guest of honour.

48:25Go on, you're the guest of honour.

48:55Go on, you're the guest of honour.

49:25Oh, absolutely.

49:36Remember, different inhale.

49:55Oh, have another wallop at that, Jeffrey.

50:12Go on.

50:12Hey, nip nip.

50:24Feel the spirits of our ancestors, Jeffrey.

50:27Boy, I can suddenly feel something, that's for sure.

50:29I'm absolutely ravenous.

50:37We have prepared food.

50:39Oh, thank you.

50:50Hello.

50:52Hello.

50:52Oh, before you took enough, and now that we're all partners again, how did you do it?

51:03Do what?

51:03You know what?

51:09Pinch the bloody cradle up the bridge.

51:12Come on, Jeff.

51:13How did you do it?

51:15There it was.

51:17Sitting on the dock.

51:18A couple of dozy security guards.

51:21Dropped them a few quid to look the other.

51:23Either way.

51:24Oh, this is so good.

51:30Traditional dish, is it?

51:32That's black bean dip from the supermarket.

51:35What you stowling in broad daylight.

51:39Just like that.

51:41Can't have hand it to you, Jeffrey.

51:42Well, I didn't physically remove it myself.

51:47No, I know.

51:48What are you doing?

51:50Fifty-twelve of it.

51:52Do you want some Popeye also?

51:56I'm not one to roll the old sleeves up.

51:59I leave all the heavy lifting chaps out here.

52:05So, who lifted it for you, Jeffrey?

52:08Aye, the cradle up the bridge.

52:10Aye, the piss artist, Calhoun, and a couple of his comrades.

52:18They're satating some balls, though, eh?

52:21Knicking something outside.

52:23Stakes were high, and you've got to pay a bold hand.

52:27I know, but if you had have been captured, Jeffrey,

52:30I mean, you would have been facing some serious charges, eh?

52:35Aye, aye, aye.

52:35You've got trespass, hijack, bribery, extortion.

52:40I mean, it must have taken nerves of steel.

52:45Oh, he had the nerve, and he took the steel.

52:52Had to show you buggers how I meant business.

52:56But you're still on probation from your previous convictions as well, aren't you?

53:00What do you want to bring that up for now?

53:02Because I wanted our new friend to hear all this.

53:06Can I introduce you to Detective Inspector Hayley?

53:09Oh, no.

53:09All right.

53:11Now, the funny thing is, I'm from Middlesbrough,

53:14so all your admitted crimes are on my badge.

53:17Admitted crimes? I admit nothing.

53:19Oh, but you did, Mr. Granger.

53:22I had to say, you...

53:23You're coming home with me also.

53:25Oh, no.

53:26You can't do this to me.

53:28Did it to yourself?

53:30Think of yourself.

53:31Okay, Jeffrey.

53:31I wanted to kill you.

53:34No!

53:35No!

53:36No!

53:37No!

53:37Bye, Jonah.

53:38Bye-bye.

54:01Thank you, Jeff.

54:09Bye-bye.

54:10Bye-bye.

54:11Bye-bye.

54:12Bye-bye.

54:16Bye-bye.

54:16I put an ad on the internet last night, bridge builders, seek new challenges, travel no

54:44object. Hey I wonder where the Tyne Bridge would look good. It's pretty good where it is.

54:54Mind you, after we've paid off all the costs and the chocolate nose are taking their whack,

54:58we're not exactly going to be millionaires, are we? Well better off than what we were.

55:02I mean we'll still get a drink with it at the end of the day. I mean we went into it,

55:07lying whack pockets, turned things around and made a killing, but in the end it wasn't

55:12about the money.

55:24Got a little present for you. There you are. I keep surfing the internet right,

55:30because you never know what you might find. It's a pleasure.

55:36Be happy, Pop. Oh, and well.

55:40Well I'm both now.

55:42Safe journey.

55:44Oh, thank you.

55:46There was a leader of the Hopis named the Sun Chief. He left his tribe in Arizona to be schooled

55:54by the white man. He said he learned how to sleep on a bed, pray to Jesus, and eat with a knife and fork.

56:02He said he also learned that the white man thinks with his head, not his heart.

56:08If the Sun Chief had met you guys, he'd realize how wrong he was.

56:14Thank you very much.

56:16Thank you very much.
