00:01Are you telling me that 70% of our drones don't work in the rain?
00:06Well, they do now. We attach little umbrellas.
00:10Good work, Muldoon.
00:12Right. Thank you very much, everyone.
00:15Now, Chief, I just wanted to check how you were holding up under the investigation.
00:21Oh, it's not an investigation, Lindsay. No.
00:24No, just as part of my contract renewal,
00:26the Police Federation are conducting a cursory cheque into my past.
00:30Why would they do that, sir?
00:31Well, to reassure the Scottish public that their police force are beyond reproach.
00:36It was on my recommendation, actually,
00:38after we renewed Malcolm Maguire's contract.
00:42Bent Malcolm.
00:44Excellent policeman, first rate,
00:45but he was selling stolen goods on Facebook Marketplace, so...
00:49We should have seen the clues. I mean, we are the police.
00:53Yeah, well, hindsight's 20-20, Muldoon.
00:56Anyway, it's a formality. A box tick.
00:59Got it, sir.
01:01No. No winking.
01:03This is a wink-free scenario.
01:05It is... It's purely protocol.
01:07Protocol. Understood.
01:09No, don't... No nose-tapping.
01:12Listen, sir.
01:13If something comes up in your past,
01:15say you left the boot in for too long.
01:17We've all done it.
01:18Different times.
01:20I will back you, gaffer.
01:21I'll make sure and keep it zipped.
01:23Look, don't zip.
01:25No zipping.
01:26My character and conduct are beyond reproach.
01:29Ah, it's good to know, sir.
01:31Well, if that's a supportive wink,
01:33then I accept that wink.
01:36You'll scoosh it, chief.
01:37There's no Wallace behaviour in your past.
01:39Oh, Greg Wallace.
01:41The pudding boy.
01:42No.
01:43Absolutely not.
01:44I respect women of a certain age.
01:47Of all ages.
01:49All women.
01:50All people.
01:51But particularly all...
01:53women...
01:54people.
01:55Thank you, women people.
01:57That will be all.
02:15Morning, Cameron.
02:16Ah, Lachlan, Belinda.
02:18Beautiful day for paddle.
02:20We should join us one day, Cameron.
02:22Oh, I'd love to.
02:23I've just got to get my head round
02:24whether it's little tennis or big ping pong.
02:28Oh, one thing.
02:30Have you managed to talk to your daughter yet about...
02:40This country is a joke.
02:42You end up in court over nothing.
02:44Nothing.
02:44The system is rigged.
02:45It's unbelievable.
02:48Court, eh?
02:49To be honest, she's on first-name terms
02:52with most of the staff down there.
02:53So is our daughter.
02:54Oh, well, then you know what I'm talking about.
02:56Kids, eh?
02:57Of course you love...
02:58She's an advocate.
02:59Oh, right.
03:00She's a...
03:01Oh, she's Samantha Bannerman, Crawford.
03:03Right.
03:04Well.
03:04Well done.
03:05Good for her.
03:05Good for you.
03:07Tacking back to the matter in hand.
03:10The van.
03:12We don't want her to get rid of her beliefs.
03:14Of course not.
03:14She's young.
03:15We were young.
03:16We get it.
03:16We get it.
03:17We were all there.
03:18Maggie, Maggie, Maggie.
03:19Out, out, out.
03:20And I boycotted South African orange juice.
03:23And even today, I listen to kneecap on Spotify.
03:27The van.
03:28It was a major topic in the last Residents Association meeting.
03:32Major AOB.
03:33Well, so much AOB that the AOB had AOB.
03:37And the AOB was the van.
03:40Can you see where we're coming from?
03:42I understand, Lachlan.
03:44I grew up a mere faded nine iron from here.
03:48The only van in our cul-de-sac delivered longest-teen oysters and hand-dived scallops.
03:54I'll have a word with her.
03:56She was talking about driving to China to help the Uyghurs anyway.
03:59Or driving to Cardiff to see the Ezra Collective.
04:02Either way, it's maybe time to go with the tyres, Press.
04:06Well, that's great news.
04:07Oh, we're having a BBQ this week.
04:09Would you and Ellen like to join us?
04:11Oh, we're delighted, yes.
04:13Any dietary requirements?
04:15Well, Ellen is a strict vegan.
04:17But to compensate, I'll eat anything that bleeds.
04:25I can't believe you'd rather cozy up to a slave owner than stand up for your own daughter.
04:31What?
04:32He's a Bannerman Crawford.
04:35Tobacco Lord.
04:35Plantation boss.
04:37Slave owner.
04:38He's not a slave owner.
04:40His ancestors, maybe.
04:42Hundreds of years ago.
04:43His wealth is inherited.
04:45It's tainted.
04:47You can't judge someone purely on their ancestors.
04:50Otherwise, you'd be Scotland's greatest cop.
04:52I'm also striving for justice.
04:55Historic justice.
04:57Please.
04:59These are my people.
05:00I belong here.
05:02Well, I'm not going anywhere.
05:04Can't you just park your principles for five seconds?
05:07Nope.
05:08I literally can't go anywhere.
05:11You're tagged?
05:12I'm under curfew order.
05:14Can you pay the fine?
05:15For what?
05:16For providing vital historical context.
05:19All right.
05:21So you've vandalised a statue.
05:23Great.
05:23So now, I'm not only your father.
05:25I'm your jailer.
05:27My own daughter.
05:29Tagged.
05:30Like a cheap bottle of Vaudy and Tesco's.
05:34Unless you pay the fine.
05:36No, no.
05:36That is a red line I do not cross.
05:39You got into this situation.
05:41You get out of it.
05:42Now, I need a couple of rounds of a poise.
05:45Get yourself down to Charlie's Cheesemonger.
05:52Right, I'll go.
05:55I thought they would have completed their background check by now.
05:59What's keeping them?
05:59Oh, you know what the police federation are like, Chief?
06:02Dragging their heels.
06:03I've said it before.
06:04I will back you, sir.
06:06If you've dangled a wee radge out a ten-storey window,
06:09we've all done it.
06:11Now you're doubling up.
06:12The wink and the nose tap don't double up.
06:15My behaviour is and always has been exemplary.
06:17I think you should know that a few of the boys have been saying
06:20that maybe something nefarious has came to light.
06:22No smoke without fire.
06:24No stink without keech.
06:26No, it's no smoke, no fire.
06:27No stink, no keech.
06:28OK, sir.
06:30I will work to shut the rumours down.
06:32What rumours?
06:33Well, I'm not saying there's anything behind it, Chief,
06:35but, er, bigamy.
06:37Bigamy?
06:38I can't even get one wife.
06:40Have you heard this, Muldoon?
06:41No, sir.
06:42Good.
06:42I heard you were selling dodgy Manjaro on the dark web.
06:45Oh, for that chance of that.
06:47Just shut these rumours down, Muldoon.
06:50And, Lindsay, see if you can find out
06:52why the police federation are taking so long.
06:54Scan the horizon for smoke signals.
06:56Chief, you can't say that.
07:11Is this yours?
07:14Certainly not.
07:15When there is an investigation into your historical behaviour...
07:19A routine protocol box tick.
07:21And I am sent this anonymously,
07:24then it is logical to conclude it's from some kind of whistleblower.
07:28Logical?
07:28Hmm.
07:29Someone trying to tell me
07:30that the Chief behaved inappropriately at the Christmas party.
07:34What?
07:34You didn't for a moment think that maybe someone was trying to tell you
07:38that you're an arse?
07:41So, I suppose that is plausible as well.
07:44Or maybe someone saying
07:45we're making an arse of running the country.
07:47I can't believe you thought that was mine.
07:50Mine has heft and definition.
07:53I'm Michelangelo's David,
07:55not some slack-arsed saddle from accounts.
07:59Well,
08:00we need you to sort it out, Chief.
08:03Tamp down the rumours
08:04that are getting out of hand.
08:05What have you heard?
08:07Selling stolen goods on Facebook Marketplace.
08:09No, that's bent, Malcolm.
08:10You've got your scandals mixed up.
08:13Not that there's a scandal involving me.
08:15It's tittle-tattle.
08:16I'm having to defend you to the First Minister.
08:18There's nothing to defend!
08:21Well, take some jalebes if you want.
08:23My nephew just got his HGV licence.
08:28Send them my congratulations.
08:46So, Ellen, why the bracelet?
08:49I vandalised a statue on Hunter Square.
08:52What?
08:53Giving it vital historical context.
08:56It's a Bannerman Crawford.
08:57It's one of ours.
08:59One of yours.
09:00Don't worry about the statue, Ellen.
09:02That old bastard blackened the family name.
09:05I'll join you next time.
09:08That's not funny.
09:09It's not funny.
09:11All of this was paid for by slavery.
09:14Hardly.
09:15I'm a senior partner
09:16with Anderson, McGrory, McLeish and Matheson.
09:19I earn my own money.
09:20Slavery created a system of wealth accumulation
09:23for slave owners and their descendants.
09:26You know, I do find myself conflicted.
09:29We give back what we can.
09:31I soup kitchen
09:33and I litter pick on the meadows.
09:35Charity doesn't address the root cause of social problems.
09:39You know, you're just a...
09:40It took a few time, sadly.
09:44Yes, let's get you home
09:46before you start buzzing like your table's ready
09:48at the Toby Carberry.
09:52Look, look, look.
09:53I am sorry that you don't like staring at my van,
09:57but I don't like staring at slavery towers.
10:00Yes, slavery towers.
10:01That was her favourite Enid Blyton
10:02when she was a little girl.
10:07It's their family history.
10:08Can't you just look the other way?
10:09What?
10:10Like they won't with my van?
10:16What are you looking for, Chief?
10:24I'm trying to find out
10:26if my neighbours have a legal right
10:27to remove Ellen's van.
10:29Title condition, Scotland 2003, AXA.
10:32Ah, thank you, Muldoon.
10:36Did you ever have troublesome neighbours?
10:38Not too bad now, sir,
10:40but when I was wee,
10:41one boy stoved in her wall and nicked her telly.
10:44But it was a World Cup qualifier,
10:46so fair play to him.
10:47He suffered plenty in the end.
10:49Retribution.
10:50Scheme justice.
10:52Norway beat us 4-0.
10:55Dodgy neighbours, eh, sir?
10:56Do you want us to go and pay them a visit?
10:59Ah, don't start that.
11:00We don't need to bring a wink into this.
11:02We could speak to them...
11:04Hey, hey, hey!
11:05No, no stop either.
11:06Paul!
11:08Any emails from the Federation?
11:11All quiet on that particular front, sir.
11:13It's a box tick.
11:14Why the delay?
11:15Were you one of the dwarves
11:16in the Christmas Pantone 93?
11:19How do you know that?
11:21Reddit form.
11:21There's a discussion on you.
11:23It was a different type, Paul.
11:26Somebody also says
11:27that they saw you scanning
11:28apples as tatties in Lidl.
11:30Who'd start a Reddit forum on me?
11:32I did.
11:33What?
11:34Well, I thought I'd smoke out some info.
11:36Plus, I've been adding some positive stuff
11:38under a variety of aliases.
11:39Such as?
11:41He's a confident and impressive tipper.
11:43I have personally seen him stroke a puppy.
11:45He looks very distinguished
11:47in the lambent evening light.
11:49I mean, all of this is true, Paul.
11:50I don't know.
11:51A Reddit forum,
11:52I think it's counterproductive.
11:54When you're trying to smoke something out,
11:55you don't go barging in
11:56with a flamethrower.
11:58Close it down.
11:59Got it.
12:04Come chat-ca, attack.
12:08Come chat-ca, attack.
12:15Attack, attack, attack.
12:18Attack, attack.
12:21Surrender?
12:22No.
12:23No, actually.
12:24Let's just take a break.
12:25We'll come back to it.
12:26My luck's got to change soon.
12:29I'm surprised you even play this game, Ellen.
12:31Empire building,
12:33subjugation,
12:34warmongering.
12:35I've got to do something.
12:37I'm so bored
12:38kicking around the place.
12:40Stuck with you.
12:41Well, straight back at you, kid.
12:43I'm stuck with you too.
12:44It is worse for me.
12:46I'm young
12:46and you're half-dead already.
12:49People at your age
12:50are meant to be
12:51stuck at home
12:52moaning about interest,
12:54rates and
12:54falling asleep
12:55during reruns of Bargain Hunt.
12:57I am
12:58years
12:59from retirement,
13:00young lady.
13:04Unless they find something.
13:08Come on, let's
13:09place a beauty, oh.
13:10Keep my mind off things.
13:11Come on.
13:11I don't get it.
13:13It's so random.
13:15How do you make them kick?
13:17How many times have I got to tell you?
13:19They don't kick.
13:21You flick them.
13:22Flick them.
13:23And you flick the goalie too.
13:25No, you,
13:25you kind of,
13:26you stab at,
13:28you kind of wiggle and stab,
13:29wiggle and stab.
13:30This was like Xbox for boomers.
13:33Very popular in my day, Ellen.
13:35We also had rugby and cricket.
13:37Nothing for the lassies, of course.
13:39So,
13:39my poor wee sister,
13:40she happened to pretend
13:41that Donald Ford
13:43and Drew Busby
13:44were Torval and Dean.
13:47then,
13:48yada-da-da-da-da-da-dum,
13:51da-da-dee,
13:52yada-da-da-dum.
13:56What if they have found something?
13:59Oh, God,
13:59what would I do?
14:01What sort of job
14:02would I get at my age?
14:04Uncle Jeff
14:05went back to work
14:06at Iceland.
14:07From proudly
14:08guarding a nation
14:09to freezing my balls off
14:11stacking fish fingers
14:12in a walk-in chiller?
14:13I don't think so.
14:15You could probably
14:16make a living
14:17on the lecture circuit.
14:18Eh,
14:20that's more my speed.
14:22Yes.
14:23The lecture circuit.
14:25I thought the chief's speech
14:27was very good, Sheena.
14:28Yes, so did I, Margaret.
14:30He's really kept his looks,
14:32hasn't he?
14:33Kept them.
14:33If anything,
14:34he's better looking.
14:36Oh.
14:38Are you all right, Dad?
14:39Oh, no,
14:40it's the Bannermen Crawfords.
14:42They're on the attack.
14:44We might have to join forces.
14:45Your 50 battalions
14:47and my one piece.
14:49Come on.
14:50So,
14:51Residents Association
14:52last night.
14:53We done with the AOB
14:54of the AOB
14:55when a spot of AOB
14:56came up.
14:57Let me guess.
14:58The van
14:59and a possible solution.
15:01Ellen,
15:02Blinda and I
15:03are firmly of the opinion
15:04that charity
15:05begins
15:06at home
15:07and under the circumstances.
15:09The Crescents
15:10have clubbed together
15:12and we're happy
15:13to pay your fine.
15:15Oh,
15:16so you're gonna
15:16buy me like you bought
15:18your slaves?
15:18Oh,
15:19not that again.
15:20Come on,
15:21please,
15:21just take it.
15:22Taking your blood money?
15:24The passion of you.
15:26One man's blood money
15:27is another man's
15:28legitimately inherited
15:29largee selling.
15:30I can't be bought.
15:32Well,
15:32that'll be a first
15:33for your family.
15:35What's that supposed
15:35to mean?
15:36Oh,
15:36come on.
15:37It's all over the Crescent.
15:38It's only a rumor,
15:39lackey.
15:40You're being investigated
15:41for taking kickbacks.
15:43Who told you that?
15:44Samantha works
15:45with a clerk
15:45who knows a chef
15:46who works in chambers
15:47and he overheard
15:48an MSP
15:49talking to the
15:49Procurator Fiscal.
15:51It's a box-ticking
15:53obligation
15:53as part of my
15:54contract renewal.
15:56Please,
15:57just take the money.
15:58Some of the residents
15:59are getting worried
16:00about house prices.
16:01This is a pinnacle
16:02of postcodes
16:03after all.
16:04Did you make this?
16:06No.
16:07Because it's not polite,
16:08is it?
16:09If it was polite,
16:10it would say please.
16:11Please,
16:12just move it.
16:13Please.
16:14We don't want it here.
16:16People are upset.
16:17Husbands and wives
16:18are falling out.
16:19Belinda and I
16:20are falling out.
16:21Mingus Radford Brooks
16:23is in his bed
16:24right there
16:25dying.
16:27Dying.
16:28Do you understand?
16:29He's in that house
16:30lying in his bed
16:32and his dearest wish
16:33was that the last thing
16:34he would see
16:35would be his
16:35beautiful cornissing.
16:37His beautiful
16:38Victorian cornissing
16:39on his spacious
16:4015-foot ceiling.
16:41But no,
16:42the last thing you'll see
16:43is not his beautiful
16:44cornissing.
16:45It'll be that
16:45bloody van!
16:46Well,
16:47maybe you should take
16:48some of your
16:48legitimately inherited
16:50largesse
16:51and buy him
16:51some blackout blinds.
16:53Ellen!
16:55You have tried
16:56your best.
17:02Lindsay,
17:03any news?
17:05Any updates?
17:06Are you okay?
17:07I want you to feel
17:08supported.
17:09How's your mental health?
17:11Well,
17:11currently not great.
17:12This delay,
17:13it just doesn't
17:14make any sense.
17:16My character and
17:17conduct are
17:17beyond reproach.
17:19Can you think of
17:20anything,
17:21anything at all
17:22from your past
17:23that might be a bit
17:24dodge?
17:26The only thing
17:27I can think of
17:29is that time
17:30I misgendered
17:31one of the police dogs.
17:33How do you
17:33misgender a police dog?
17:35Well,
17:35it's easily done.
17:37It was the

17:47Check before you speak,
17:49Chief.
17:49It's the golden rule.

17:51law enforcement
17:53officer in the land.
17:54I can't be crawling
17:55around on all fours
17:56lifting the tail
17:57of every Alsatian
17:58I come across.
17:59It's easier with horses.
18:02I've never misgendered
18:03a horse.
18:03Well,
18:04no,
18:04because they're
18:04bits and pieces.
18:05They're head height,
18:06aren't they?
18:06You can't.
18:06They're staring
18:07you in the face.
18:08Yeah,

18:10No.
18:11So,
18:11yeah,
18:12well,
18:12it can't have been that
18:13because I,
18:13I would have been told.
18:15Okay,

18:17to the ground.
18:20You hear anything,
18:21get on the jungle drums.
18:22Chief.
18:24You can't
18:24say that.
18:25Oh,
18:26no,
18:26sorry.
18:30I am
18:30never
18:31going to that
18:32canteen again.
18:33It's like running
18:34the gauntlet.
18:35Rumor's flying
18:36like I'm
18:37Indiana Jones
18:38dodging the blow darts.
18:40Oh,
18:40here comes the chief.
18:48Yeah?
18:48Oh.
18:49Oh.
18:50Son?
18:52Oh,
18:52no.
18:53That's dice.
18:55Gambling.
18:56Yeah.
18:57Just go home.
18:58Relax.
18:59I can't
19:00go home.
19:01They'll be
19:02waiting for me.
19:03Oh,
19:04Cameron,
19:05have you
19:05found the time
19:06to move the van yet?
19:08I thought the Crescent
19:09would be my haven,
19:10my sanctuary.
19:12Can't you just
19:13move the van?
19:15Well,
19:15if I move the van,
19:17then Elm thinks
19:17I'm a fascist.
19:18And if I don't move the van,
19:19then my neighbours
19:20think I'm a communist.
19:22I just wish
19:23that bloody van
19:24would disappear.
19:28I need you to authorise raids
19:31on organised crime gangs
19:33and suspected drug boats.
19:35Some of these are months away.
19:37Aye, well,
19:38Justice thought we should get
19:39authorisation just in case.
19:40Just in case of what?
19:42The investiga...
19:44Sorry.
19:45Cursory background check
19:47is dragging on.
19:48There's succession planning.
19:51Behind my back.
19:52worse,
19:52in front of my front.
19:53Belt and braces,
19:54I'm sure, sir.
19:59This has all worked out
20:00rather well for you,
20:01Muldoon,
20:02hasn't it?
20:02What do you mean, sir?
20:04Oh,
20:04I'll shut down the rumours, sir.
20:06Maybe you started them.
20:07I have never been anything
20:09but supportive of you, sir.
20:16Did the Federation
20:17question you about me?
20:20Yes.
20:20What did you say?
20:23That's confidential, sir.
20:29In my years of service,
20:31I have never witnessed
20:32even a suggestion
20:33of inappropriate behaviour
20:34from the Chief Commissioner.
20:36Hard-working, loyal,
20:38he's an inspirational leader.
20:40No wink?
20:41No wink.
20:43He's dedicated his life
20:45to public service.
20:46He's a consummate professional.
20:50Consummate has
20:51two M's.
20:54Muldoon.
20:54Thank you, sir.
20:56Oh, no.
20:58Thank you, Muldoon.
21:12Ellen, what have you done now?
21:14Nothing.
21:15Two cops turned up
21:16and covered up my van.
21:17I thought it was your idea.
21:19No.
21:20Oh,
21:21Paul.
21:24Do you like the tent, Chief?
21:26Problem solved.
21:27Obviously,
21:28I appreciate it,
21:29but I...
21:31Oh,
21:32Lachlan.
21:34Belinda.
21:35What do you think?
21:36Are you happy now?
21:38Looks like there's been a murder.
21:40Or worse,
21:41the SNP have moved in.
21:43Out of sight,
21:44out of mind.
21:46Now,
21:46Mingus can see out his final days
21:49in the company
21:50of his beautiful cornicing.
21:52I was really hoping
21:53it wouldn't come to this,
21:55but the Residents Association
21:56have authorized me
21:57to take next steps.
21:59What do you mean next steps?
22:00Breaching a title condition
22:01in the Title Conditions
22:03Scotland Act,
22:042003.
22:06Expect to hear from our lawyer.
22:10Legal action, eh?
22:11Now they're threatening
22:13legal action
22:14against me,
22:16the People's Chief.
22:18All because of you
22:19and your bloody van.
22:22Right,
22:23that's it.
22:23I'm done.
22:24I'm paying your fine.
22:25You don't need to.
22:26My period of monitoring
22:28ended two days ago.
22:30I'm a free woman.
22:31Can leave when I like.
22:34Well,
22:35why haven't you?
22:36Oh,
22:37I'm not letting
22:38the Crescent win.
22:40Oh,
22:41the sky is blue,
22:42the grass is green,
22:44and the Crescent
22:45always wins.
22:50What do they want now?
22:57Cameron,
22:58is there anything
22:59I should be worried about?
23:00Anything
23:01I should prepare myself for?
23:04Was our whole marriage
23:05a sham?
23:08Are you gay?
23:09I'm not gay!
23:11Well,
23:12there was that guy
23:13that time in Magaluf,
23:14remember?
23:15He went to the wrestling together.
23:18Big Frank?
23:20I think this is projection,
23:22Barbara.
23:23You were the one
23:23getting on
23:24the slather sun lotion
23:25on your back.
23:26I couldn't reach.
23:28You were asleep,
23:29snoring away
23:30the latest
23:31John Grisham
23:32sliding off your belly.
23:34Barbara,
23:35you've got nothing
23:36to worry about.
23:39You're stressed.
23:41Maybe it's time
23:42to step back,
23:43step down.
23:44Oh, no.
23:46This whole thing
23:47has made me realise
23:48that I need to work.
23:50I'm not ready
23:51for retirement.
23:53Being trapped
23:55by the Crescent.
23:57A life of barbecues
24:00and a nice pork pie
24:02and a pint
24:02before wandering
24:03down to Murrayfield
24:04and gallery openings.
24:06You know,
24:07you must come
24:07and stay
24:07in our divine
24:08villain,
24:10Tuscany.
24:10And, oh,
24:12there's an
24:13extraordinary
24:14production
24:14of the
24:14steamy
24:15at the
24:15Traverse
24:16and petty
24:18little disputes
24:19about a van.
24:21My world
24:22has shrunk,
24:23Barbara,
24:24from leading
24:24a proud nation's
24:26crime-fighting force
24:27to a petty
24:29little dispute
24:29about a van.
24:37It's the
24:38Justice Minister.
24:40Oh, well,
24:40they've obviously
24:41found something.
24:42They've found
24:43something.
24:44I mean,
24:44if it was good
24:44news,
24:45he'd tell me
24:45in person.
24:46No,
24:47it's bad news
24:48by email,
24:49dumped by text.
24:51New book job
24:52Insta.
24:52This could still
24:53be good news,
24:54Cameron.
24:55I'm an innocent man,
24:56Barbara.
24:57And I've been
24:58brought down
24:58by trumped-up
24:59charges.
25:01Cameron,
25:02man up.
25:04Whatever it is,
25:05face it.
25:14Hello, minister?
25:17What's that?
25:17Sorry, you'll...
25:18Could you speak up?
25:19There's a bit of a
25:20commotion at my end.
25:22It looks like the press.
25:25I...
25:26Sorry.
25:27What was that?
25:28Could you say that again?
25:30Say again?
25:31I am delighted
25:35that you are all here

26:00The people's chief.
26:02So why did it
26:03take so long?
26:03Ah, a simple
26:05misunderstanding.
26:06Malcolm Maguire
26:07or Bent Malcolm

26:09have christened him
26:11named his
26:12six-bedroom
26:12Marbella Villa
26:13Mikkelsen Mansions.
26:15This was a
26:15disrespectful dig
26:16at myself
26:17and not
26:17as the police
26:18federation
26:19wrongly assumed
26:20a tribute.
26:21So, you're off
26:22the hoot.
26:23I was never
26:24on the hook.
26:26It's not that
26:27it's not not proven.
26:28I am not
26:30guilty.
26:31Thank you very much,
26:32ladies and gentlemen.
26:33No, no, please,
26:34please, please.
26:36I have a nation
26:38to police.
26:39Thank you very much.
26:47Now that you're
26:48actually leaving,
26:49well,
26:51I'm going to miss you.
26:51I'm going to miss you
26:53too.
26:54But it's time.
26:56Best I leave you
26:57with your people.
27:00What if these
27:00aren't my people?
27:02What if your people
27:03turned out to be
27:03someone else's people?
27:04Maybe you're my people.
27:06I am your people,
27:08Dad.
27:09But trust me,
27:11these are way more
27:12your people.
27:13Bon voyage,

27:31with the truffle oil
27:32from Piannod?
27:33Piannod, yes.
27:35No, thank you.
27:36They use
27:37Legato Roman Yolo
27:38dogs to find
27:39the truffles.
27:40So, yeah,
27:41it's exploitative.
27:45So,

27:47a parking space
27:48for the van
27:49down at the station
27:49when you're back.
