All language subtitles for Hotel Babylon s02e02.eng

CHARLIE: 'At Hotel Babylon,
we're used to high-profile clients

'and their extravagant requests.

'So, who would you guess
attracts the most attention,

'and is the most demanding of all?

'If you think royalty, think again.

'I'll tell you.

'Premiership footballers
before a big game.

'Wedged-up young blokes,
fit as a butchers' dogs,

'and generally half as smart.

'Told to behave, even though
they're eager to sample the excesses

'they quite rightly think
a hotel called Babylon will provide.

'It's like lighting a firework
and ordering it not to go off.'

THEY LAUGH

Come on, come on!

'And in this hotel,

'we don't mind the hijinks
that obsess the Sunday tabloids.

'But you should never
take the piss out of hotel staff.'

CHEERING AND YELLING

THEY LAUGH

To paraphrase that fictional
mild-mannered scientist

just before he turns
an ugly shade of green...

..don't make us angry. You really
wouldn't like us when we're angry.

Here's your key card, Mr Dovic.
I hope you enjoy your stay.

Your hotel comes highly recommended.

I'm fully confident I shall
enjoy my stay to the maximum.

Oh, great.

When you've finished
mentally undressing the guests,

do you think you could be persuaded
to do some actual work?

I've mentally undressed them,
got nasty in the hot tub, showered,

got nasty in the shower, got dressed
and came back down to reception.

All in the ten seconds it took for
the footballer to cross the lobby?

A bum that tight sets off
a fantasy sequence

like a bell triggers a dog to drool.

Don't tell me it doesn't have
the same effect on you.

No requests for autographs,
no addressing by name,

no staring, no touching,
no talking to, no smiling at,

no smoking in the presence of.

Can we breathe the same air,

or should we switch to anaerobic
respiration in their presence?

Sorry!
Morning, Anna. Come and sit down.

Oh, good morning! You all know
how long I've been schmoozing

every club in the Premiership
to use this as their London base.

Yeah, God knows why.

Ugh, how do I put this into words
you'll understand? Oh, yeah.

For... their... money.

Modern footballers
are a bunch of tossers.

In Italy,
the footballers behave like men.

Unless they get ever-so-slightly
nudged in the penalty box.

Yes. Then they behave like
crying little girls

who have their legs
smashed to pieces with hammers.

REBECCA: This list was issued by
the club's head of public relations.

Now, if she says "no smiling at",
we do not smile at.

With Peter Yardley as manager,
you won't need that.

He'll keep them well under control.

The man was a legendary captain
in his day.

Complete opposite
of today's mercenaries.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have a meet-and-greet

with Peter Yardley and the woman
who issued this list. Tony?

Yes?
Why don't you join us?

You might get a more rounded view.

You know, I did once
have lunch with George Best.

Really?
Here we go.

Yeah, well, I say lunch -
I served him a club sandwich

at the Royal Lancaster
and then stood behind a yucca

and watched him eat it.
Best friends, then, huh (?)

Tony said Bestie even
chewed his sandwich more skilfully

than a mortal man.
God, give me strength. Tony!

That man played
for the love of the game.

The game, not the dough.

And sure as dogs have fleas,
kids have germs.

Listen, Anatoly didn't resurrect
this club from Division Two

only to see his assets
ravaged by chickenpox, OK?

The answer is no.

Miss Stoll.
Sorry to keep you waiting.

Well, it has been rather irritating,
Miss Mitchell.

Peter Yardley, club manager.

Club coach.

In my days, a coach was something
you sat on to get to a match.

Yes, well, we still sit on coaches

but that's just to keep their minds
focused on the club's share price.

This is my head concierge, Tony.

He'll be helping to look after you
while you're here.

Big fan, sir, big fan.

March 1976, White Hart Lane -
etched on my memory for life.

Good game, that was.

How tragic, that a life is
so bereft of incident

that the memory of a football game
should take on such pre-eminence.

I beg your pardon? I need
to talk to you about security.

Paging Mr Lucan.

Paging Mr Lucan.

Paging Mr...

Paging Mr...

Big fan, sir. Massive strike
against Chelsea three weeks ago.

Thanks.

Forgive me
for talking to you at all,

but I just wanted to say that
if there is ANYTHING you want

that room service can't provide,

you can text me, Mr Hocker,
on this number.

Anything at all, day or night.

Seen this, genius?

Second front cover in three years.

Great.

Here, mate, can I have
a nice glass of champagne, please?

What you playing?
Footie.

What team are you?
Us.

What player?
Myself.

You really need to broaden
your outlook - do you know that?

Oi, soppy. Look after that.

The paparazzi'll stop at nothing

to violate the image rights
of my players.

So... I want you to enhance
the security on all the entrances,

to dissuade them from
infiltrating the building.

I don't think it's necessary.

I've given strict instructions
to the lads

to go straight up
to their rooms after supper.

In any event, our current personnel

makes Hotel Babylon
impossible to infiltrate.

My club are paying
an awful lot of money to stay here.

In future, they could choose
to spend a great deal more

in Hotel Babylon... or elsewhere.

Consider additional security
on its way.

Once I've spoken, I take it as read

that the appropriate action will
automatically follow. Thank you.

Can I help you, sir?

I need more pillows.

Of course, sir,
and how many would you like?

About eight.

Eight?
Yeah, I like to be comfy.

Is that all right with you, Mary?
HE CHUCKLES

My name's Ben.

And I think we all know
what that's short for, don't we?

I'll have eight pillows
sent up directly.

And make sure you don't touch
any of 'em.

Ben, everything OK?

Fine.

Good afternoon, sir.
Welcome to Hotel Babylon.

Thanking you kindly.
Sorry.

DOOR CLOSES

Good morning.

Your room is 103, Mr Boscastle.
I'll have someone take up your bags.

As you can see, I'm...
travelling light.

Boscastle?

Isn't that the flooded village?

My family's
originally from there.

Oh, that's unusual, to be named
after the village you come from.

It's a... Cornish tradition.

I was in Cornwall last year.

Boscastle's beautiful - the clifftop
walks and the witches museum.

Thank you.

Amazed they let you out.

That is the sixth this afternoon.

From Boscastle?

No, all dressed in black
and have gone straight to the bar.

It's a very, very small
Johnny Cash convention.

And did you notice that not one
of the men has flirted with me?

Anna, you do realise, don't you,
that not everyone

with lead in their pencil wants
to get inside your knickers?

SHE SCOFFS

Tanya?

You should've finished by now.

Tanya?

SOBBING

Tanya?

Babe!

Hey.

What's wrong?
TANYA SOBS

Babe.

Shh, shh.

It's OK. Shh!

Welcome, friends. First, we must...
know each other.

You are?

I'm Stephen from, er, Colchester.

ALL: Hello, Stephen from Colchester.

You are?
Meg from Romford.

ALL: Hello, Meg from Romford.

Who are these for?

For them.

OK. Allow me.

My name is Maureen
and I'm from north-west London.

ALL: Hello, Maureen
from north-west London.

And you are?

Oh, I'm Martin and, erm,

I'm from a village just outside...

Just the region, please, Martin.

Norfolk.

ALL: Hello, Martin from Norfolk.

Who's for the sparkling water?

You know Tanya,
our Croatian chambermaid? Mm-hm.

She's convinced that a guest that
she saw walking down the corridor

is the man that murdered
her six neighbours during the war.

Is this a joke?
No.

I found her in the bathroom. She
was shaking. She could barely talk.

Well, I have seen it before.

Some of the staff that come over
as refugees from God knows where.

Memory was probably triggered
by a foreign accent, that's all.

She'll be fine. Give her a Scotch,
send her home and, er,

expect her to be all over you
with embarrassment in the morning.

If I wanted to give her a Scotch
and send her home,

I would've gone to Rebecca.

Even if what she says is true -

which, I'd put money on it,
it really isn't -

our limit can only ever be sympathy.

Please, give her a Scotch...

And send her home.

One of my team needs me.

I don't suppose
you remember what that feels like.

HE SIGHS SOFTLY

Jackie...
Don't.

Oi!
Sorry. What?

You excited about tomorrow, Clive?
Yeah.

Yeah. I remember my first
FA Cup quarterfinal.

You're doing it again, boss.
What's that?

You're boring everyone rigid
with your old war stories.

I was trying to relax the boy.

I'll keep the boy genius relaxed.
Don't you worry about that.

Hey.

Yes, sir?
This roll is stale.

I can assure you,
they're freshly baked.

THEY CHEER AND LAUGH

Hey, come on, lads. Lads!
Oh, leave them alone.

They're just having a bit of fun.

Well, get me another one, yeah?
Yes, sir.

PLAYER: Sling your hook.

Go on, get out of here.
Liven yourself up, you mug.

THEY CHEER AND LAUGH

It's just a bit of fun, James.
Ah.

Well, in that case,
I'd better hotfoot it to Savile Row

to repair my splitting sides.

The extra heavies
that we ordered have arrived.

I'll inform Miss Stoll.

Miss Stoll, the additional security
you requested is in place.

Good.
I did have another...

PLAYERS CHEER AND LAUGH

Hey-hey!

I'd rather you didn't do that, SIR.

You're a lesbian?

I'm the manager of this hotel.

So? You have nice ass.

THEY CHEER

That's enough.
All right, Salvador.

Do enjoy the rest of your meal.

THEY CHEER AND WHISTLE

I'm gonna have a quiet word.

It's just a bit of fun.

Bollocks it is.
No. Thank you, Tony.

Just do your job.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hang on, hang on, hang on!

SHE GIGGLES
Ah, excuse me.

Ah!

Goodnight, sir.
Goodnight.

Goodnight, sir.

Manager off for a quick tipple?

He famously never touched the stuff.
Well, he's touching it now.

Sleep tight, sir.
Don't let the bedbugs bite. Thanks.

In the old days, the kids served
an apprenticeship with the reserves

until they were fully developed.
20 grand a week

for doing what you love.
Ugh, must be a nightmare for 'em (!)

Goodnight, lesbian.
PLAYERS JEER

Is there something
you haven't told us?

Yeah. Men in packs are bastards.

They're going up for a quiet night.
Why don't you knock off?

Head of European Operations

specified that I oversee every
aspect of their stay... in person.

Well, why don't you take
a room upstairs

and oversee every aspect of ME

overseeing every aspect
of their stay in person?

I could use a bath.

At school, I was the goalkeeper...
known for a safe pair of hands.

Everything by the book,
best behaviour?

Think of it as a taste
of management opportunity.

Professional is my middle name.

WHISPERS: Thank you.

I thought it was Marion.

HE CHUCKLES SOFTLY
You mention that to anyone...

and I'll break your tongue.

Yes?

You know the six guests dressed
in black who all went to the bar?

If this is a song, I don't know it.

If it's a riddle,
I really don't want to hear it.

They all just went
into the same room.

Well, maybe they're pallbearers
on their way back from a funeral.

Burying the deceased is tiring work.

Perhaps they've nipped upstairs for
a little lie down. What, together?

United in grief.

Don't you want to know
what's really going on up there?

OK. How old's the eldest?
Er, 65.

Mm, well, no, I really don't want
to know what's going on up there.

SHE TUTS
Why's it always got to be about sex?

It doesn't always have to be -
it just nearly always is.

I'm surprised to see you still here.

Jackie told me
who you thought you saw.

Thousands of European businessmen
pass through the hotel every year,

ev...
Dragan Milandrokovic.

I didn't think I saw, Charlie.
I SAW Dragan Milandrokovic.

Tanya... Today, he holds credit card
and a briefcase.

Ten years ago, it was
Kalashnikov rifle and a horse whip.

HE SIGHS SOFTLY
Go home and get some rest.

Jackie told me also.

The longer you spend round here,
the more upset you're gonna get.

I'm stupid.

You're not stupid.

You're just mistaken.

Yes. I am mistaken...

..to expect management to care about
foreign chambermaid.

THEY CHATTER

When I typed in
"Dragan Milandrokovic",

I got a couple of hits connected
to some fairly gruesome stuff

in Croatia
at the height of the war.

So, Tanya's not completely mad?

No. This is a shot of Milandrokovic
that I've found.

We now search the guy in 704.
Michael Dovic.

He's a highly successful

construction entrepreneur
from Croatia.

Built an orphanage for kids whose
parents were killed in the fighting.

They're both from the same area.

It's a coincidence. They're
completely different personalities.

One guy ruins the country,

the other guy's devoted
to rebuilding it.

What better way to disappear

than to become the mirror image
of who you used to be?

Jackie...

I genuinely admire your support
for Tanya, I really do, but...

this is just not the same bloke.
She was SO convinced.

They look the same to you?

Me neither.

Is it all right to pop out
now it's quiet?

What for?

A spot of room service.

Room service comes from OUR kitchen,
Luke.

Aha. But not everything our clients
want is on the menu.

Gino... found this on the bar.

"Anything. Any time."
It's class.

Get these knocked up
in a Tube station,

especially for football players,
did we?

Mm-hm. You always say a good
concierge goes the extra mile.

As long as it doesn't take him
over the line.

The line?
Told you on the first day, Luke -

there is a line over which
thou shalt not cross.

But you also said, "Everyone chooses
for themselves where that line is."

Indeed I did.

So, can I go now?

I don't know, son. Can you?

HE SIGHS

THEY LAUGH

You're gonna love this gaff.

Wow! Look at this!

God, it's massive!

Told you, it's a proper gaff, this.
Oi, come here.

Good evening, ladies. Yes, sir?

I want a massive bottle of Moet
brought up to me room,

and I want one of them
great big Mars bars.

Oh, yeah!
THEY GIGGLE

Well, if you call room service
from the suite, sir,

they'll be happy to provide you
with anything you require.

Why don't you be
a good little soldier, yeah,

and, er, see to it personally, yeah?

What do you want?

Here you go, look. Here y'are, have
what you want. Here, you are. Oh!

THEY LAUGH

Yes, sir.

"Yes, sir. Sergeant major, sir."

THEY LAUGH

No, no. No, he's a lovely little
thing. In't he lovely?

Here, look. You're funny.

Come on.

SHE LAUGHS

So, then, er, are you sure
I get to meet Clive Hocker?

Trust me, sweetheart,
we're like brothers.

Brothers?
I've never had brothers before.

HE GASPS AND SIGHS

Now, why do I find that
hard to believe?

Go on.

SHE SIGHS HAPPILY

Oh.

Nothing Tony can't handle.

Room 704, please.

Sleep well, sir.
In London, I sleep like a baby.

Our pollution has that effect
on people, sir.

When they run out of anaesthetic
at the local hospital,

they stick the patients' heads
out of the window

for two or three minutes.
That's nothing.

You know, in my hometown,
we don't say we breathe the air -

we say we chew it.

THEY CHUCKLE

Oh, that's not necessary, sir.
I'm just making conversation.

Makes my stay more pleasant.
Goodnight.

Thank you, sir.

What a nice guy.

Mm.

Perhaps I should tell Rebecca
about our Cornish contingent.

Or better yet,
have a word with them in person.

Yes, Mr Boscastle?

I've been trying to order
room service,

but each time I phone down,

they think I'm playing
a practical joke and hang up.

Why? What are you trying to order?

Six plates of bacon.

With?
Just bacon.

Six plates of just bacon.
No bread, no eggs?

Six portions of five rashers...

unsmoked.

Right. Yes, of course.
Leave it with me, sir.

Within the hour, please.

Six plates of bacon?

Well, at least you can rule out
one part of the mystery.

What's that?
They're not Jewish.

DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

THEY LAUGH AND CHEER

Give me some more! Whoo!

SHE LAUGHS

Oh!

Yes!

Oh, darling! Baby!

Hey, darling, you want me, er,

spank your saucy,
naughty sweet cheeks now?

Oh, yes, please.

KNOCK AT DOOR

What? Room service.
Well, come in, then!

SHE GROANS

Put the champagne on the table
and the Mars bar over there.

Sorry, sir. Where exactly
did you want the Mars bar?

Over there.

Oh, wicked. Thanks.

How old are you?

What?
How old are you?

Er, 16 last week.

Oi, Private No Nuts.

Stop fishing about
for a tip and get out.

My boy's a big fan of you guys.

Now,
I'll probably get sacked for asking,

but, er, he's terminally ill.

If I was to come home
with your autographs,

I'd be flavour of the month
my whole life -

which in his case,
is going to be tragically short...

I said, "Out."

He was born with kidneys
the size of walnuts.

HE SCOFFS
What are you - deaf?

When's Clive gonna join in?

Soon, babe, all right? Soon.

Would you sign?

Nobody's signing nothing.

Please.

I'm gonna be taking this gentleman
to another room, sir.

Are you bollocks.
Do you really think that this is

a healthy environment for a lad
of his age? I saw a lot worse.

Yes, and with all due respect, sir,
look how you turned out.

Oh, by the way...

you tip far too generously.

You jumped-up little prick.
Hey, hey, what are you doing?

You seem to have dropped your towel,
sir.

I'm gonna get you sacked so fast,
you'll have a nosebleed.

Is this how you dreamed
that you would end your career

when you started out, sir?
Exposed in the Sundays

for procuring girls
for the most promising prodigy

the game's produced in years?

You wouldn't dare.

Well, let me find him another room
and you never need know.

There you go.

Sir.

Is that your bag, sir?

Yeah.

Excellent. After you.

Right!

I thought I'd got them wrong,
because a little bird told me

that the team makes hospital visits

Oh, they do. But only cos
it's an easy way to shag nurses.

Is it like that every time
you share a room with him?

Dave calls the Premiership
the ride of a lifetime.

And you?
I just want to play football.

I see.

Well...

..I shall make sure
you are not disturbed.

Thanks.

Oh, erm, Tony, I'm supposed
to give you something -

Not tonight, sir. You sleep well.

Yes?

Room service.

Bacon?
Yes, sir.

Leave it outside, please.
Er, I'm afraid I can't do that, sir,

in case someone takes it between my
leaving it and your collecting it.

I'll collect it
as soon as you leave it.

I'm sorry,

but I am charged to bring the bacon
up and into your room, sir.

Leave the bacon and go away.

It is more than my job's worth...

What you guys get up to
behind closed doors -

it's your business.
If that's what turns you and you

then who am I to judge?

Why don't we just take the bacon
and let her go?

Not possible.

Not only is it possible -
it's absolutely what you must do.

I'm sorry, young lady.

You've seen too much.

Ay-up, mate.

You look like you could use a drink.
What is it about money

that makes people think
they can do whatever they want

and treat everyone else like shit
in the process?

Is, er...? Is Karl Marx in tonight?

I thought he wasn't coming in
till next week.

Please...
restore my faith in humanity.

That business upstairs - you didn't

Enjoy? I loved it!

Well, what about a little thing
called self-respect?

SHE SCOFFS
Talk to the hand,

cos the tits aren't listening, yeah?
THEY GIGGLE

See you later.

A fizzy water
and a slice of vodka, Gino.

THEY CHATTER

Lime? If it looks like
another shot of vodka, absolutely.

Heavy evening?

Disillusioning.

You know, if Mr Yardley there

knew what his players were doing
upstairs,

he would not be sat down here
drinking with his buddies.

They're not buddies,
they're baddies.

Go on.

South London gangland.

Very rich, very violent,
very good tippers.

There you go. There's your...

Make sure you count that.
Yeah.

Oh, hello.

Hello what?

Well,
didn't you just see what I just saw?

I saw one man give another man
an empty envelope.

Are you blind?

It was bursting at the seams.
Hm.

Thank you. See you later.
Lovely.

Oh. Thank you, gentlemen.

Lovely. Thank you.
Very good to see you.

They just bunged
a Premiership manager.

I saw an empty envelope. And if
you like your kneecaps in one piece,

that is what you saw as well, eh?

God, that's Peter bloody Yardley.

Think he's selling his allocation,
like many others.

Would he be a fool if he was not
on the make, like everybody else?

Everyone except the fans, Gino.

All over the world,
fans are screwed.

That's the way it is.
Yeah.

Well, tonight, I've had a bellyful
of the way that it is.

Hey, Tony.

Mr Yardley...

..could you sign that?

HE SIGHS
Sure, sure.

My dad took me
all the time to see you play.

Them were the days, eh?

You never went down, never dived.

My old fella used to say

that you were the most honest player
in the league.

I'm, er... I'm tired, son.
Maybe tomorrow, eh?

Mm. May I?

Are you anxious?

About the match?

HE CHUCKLES SOFTLY
You're having a laugh.

My squad's been hand-picked from
all over Europe at vast expense.

They could stay in the hotel in bed
and still walk it.

Well, you don't sound as pleased
about that as you might.

Look, son... when I played,

the FA Cup was a beautiful dream
everyone got a shot at.

Now, it's got all the romance
of a spreadsheet.

Mr Yardley,
your boys are running riot upstairs.

But they win.

And that's all that matters?

Winning's good for business.

That's all that matters.

Well, my old man would turn
in his grave to hear you say that.

Then maybe he's better off where
he is. Now, if you'll excuse me...

PETER GRUNTS

What are you doing up?

Couldn't sleep. So, how's it been?

These people. They're vile.

Well, you say that as if you want
to do something about it.

What if I did?

Such as...?

Well, if I were to say it out loud,
I would probably lose my job.

Then don't say it out loud.

What about all the business
the hotel would lose

as a result of me doing something?

All that money.

I'm coming round to the idea

that the satisfaction we would gain
would be compensation enough.

Seriously?
Make it a team-building exercise.

I'm sure you'll find James amenable.

And Charlie... and Gino...

and Ben.
Ben?

Oh, definitely Ben.

And you?

I will be in the gym,
running off some steam.

Ooh, Tony.

Rule number one...
Don't get caught.

Well... looks like it IS
a game of two halves.

James... have you got a moment?

Luke.

What's going on?

What would you gentlemen say
to a little wager?

Depends what the odds are.

Long.
Then it would depend on the bet.

Imagine there was a group of people
that you took a severe dislike to.

Could you be more specific?
Dislike is not my default position.

Imagine this group of people
were in the immediate vicinity.

You're looking to stitch up
our overpaid sporting guests.

I bet your teachers loved you.
Yes, they did.

They used to give me extra detention
to spend more time with me.

What are we talking about here?
Serving one of our...

special breakfasts?

You in?
Yeah, all right.

Count me in.
Oh, and me.

Luke, are you staying on
your side of the line,

or are you joining us on mine?

Joining you.

Good lad. So, as they say
in the sporting fraternity, game on.

We have no wish to keep you here
against your will,

but seeing as you forced your way
into our room,

I'm asking you to remain
of your own volition

for a little while longer.

You really think that the world
is going to end tonight?

According to the prophecies,

the world will end in exactly...

..42 minutes,

at which point,
the Planet Earth will collide

with a massive asteroid
of dark matter.

Precisely 30 seconds
prior to impact,

I have arranged for the six of us to
be plucked from certain vaporisation

by pan-galactic nomads from
a tertiary spiral of the Milky Way.

You can't really believe
this mumbo jumbo!

We do not merely believe. We know.

So how come no-one else knows?

There are others
making their own arrangements.

All right,
so why hasn't it been on the news?

It has been decided
to allow humanity to be extinguished

without the grotesque trauma
a mass panic would inevitably bring.

This is ridiculous.
I have a hair appointment tomorrow.

Trust me... you don't.

OK. So, what's with the bacon, then?

What - is that your last meal
before the poof?

In order to be salvaged
prior to impact,

our bodies will be required
to travel at great speed,

thus depleting muscle tissue.

I have been advised that bacon
has the requisite

protein-to-sodium-chloride ratio

to most quickly rectify that damage.

Aha. OK, I see.

You're completely mad, aren't you?

Anyone ignorant
of the impending cataclysm

would no doubt imagine the same.

I have arranged the bacon, Adrian.

Thank you, Maureen.

Now... excuse us.
We must prepare for our journey.

Yes, of course. Erm,
how are you proposing to do that?

Are you going to hang a large towel
out of the window?

Bacon... and suspended animation
through hypnosis.

Hypnosis. Right, now, I've heard...

So...

let us feed.

Three, two, one.

ALARM WAILS

Come on, you lot!

Shake a leg! Come on, move it.

Fire!

ALARM DROWNS SPEECH

ALARM BELL RINGS

ALARM CONTINUES

MAUREEN GASPS
We're here.

We're here!

Come swiftly.

We're here! We're waiting!

Maureen, it's the hotel fire alarm.

It's our saviours.

The electromagnetic shock wave
from the impact

must have blown
the electronic circuits

the length and breadth
of the country.

We must hold fast
to our prescribed course of action.

SHE WAILS

Maureen, when I advertised
for fellow travellers on my website,

I requested people

who would remain calm in adversity.

Now, all of you, repeat after me.

Calm in adversity,
ecstatic in salvation.

ALL: Calm in adversity,
ecstatic in salvation.

Calm in adversity,
ecstatic in salvation.

Calm in adversity,

ecstatic in salvation.

Now...

..take us.

And God help... everybody else.

ALARM WAILS

Ladies and gentlemen...

Please. Please stay calm.
ALARM STOPS

Er, we've got every reason
to believe

that this is a false alarm.
GUESTS GROAN

Stay in the lobby, though,
so we can check the rooms out

and clear the alarm.
In the meantime,

I'm gonna have hotel staff
pass amongst you,

just to tick your names off,

make sure that everyone's
present and correct.

Thanks very much
for your cooperation.

Now, this is interesting.

Listen.

I've been all over Europe
with this team.

I have never seen my boys trea...

If you have something to say,
say it in my office.

All present and correct,

except Mr Dovic, Clive Hocker,
Anna and the six weirdos.

Right, well,
Tony checked Clive into a suite,

so I'll go and give Mr Dovic a call.

I have. There's no answer.

Well, we both saw him check in,
and he's not gone out, has he?

Shit!

Get the security to meet me
in Mr Dovic's room pronto.

What about Anna
and the pasty makers? Just do it!

Mr Dovic, it's the manager.

STRAINED GROANING

DOVIC MUTTERS

HE MUTTERS

Jesus! Tanya, you should have
stayed at home.

It is him.

Tanya...
Dragan Milandrokovic.

This man's name is Mr Dovic.

I was going to make him confess
before I kill him.

Now, you can also hear.

HE MUTTERS

SHE SPEAKS CROATIAN

Tanya, this is not a way
to get what you want.

HE GASPS

I am Mr Dovic.

I'm innocent!

I provide children.

I'm a building contractor. Please.

SHE SPEAKS CROATIAN

Innocent man does not
plead for his life like this.

Tanya, even if
this was who you thought it was,

you should have gone to the police.

What - and lose my visa
for being troublemaker?

I ask you to help me,
but you do nothing.

HE GRUNTS
Tanya, look at me.

I need you to look at something
very carefully now.

Jackie got this off the internet.
It's a picture of Milandrokovic.

It's not the same man.

Please, really look at it closely.

I never forget his voice.

Two people can sound very similar.
It was a long, long time ago.

Or his eyes.

You're mistaken.

Take all the time you need.

If we establish this alarm
was caused by one of your players,

I will be writing to your chairman.

As will I,
to report that this hotel

falls far short
of the standards we are used to.

Your squad falls far short
of the standard of behaviour

we expect of our guests.

I think you're forgetting who
you're speaking to, Miss Mitchell.

I am speaking to
an over-promoted hypocrite,

who screwed a married footballer
in my hotel.

It's not what I'd call

the highest level of
professionalism, Miss Stoll.

SHE SCOFFS

SHE SIGHS SMUGLY

I could sue you
for a remark like that.

SHE GASPS

What is it you want?

I want you and your team
out of my hotel.

Unless you want it leaked
to the press

that you and your team
were thrown out.

KNOCK AT DOOR
Yes?

We're serving an early breakfast
in the dining room now.

Excellent.

Breakfast, and then out.

Oh, and, er, six guests and Anna
are still unaccounted for.

SHE GROANS

I'm so sorry, Charlie.

Take her downstairs.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so, so sorry.

Mr Dovic...

on behalf of the Hotel Babylon,
I apologise profusely

for this horrendous incident,

and will, of course,
be calling the police immediately.

No.

No police.

The bitch must have hit me
when I was asleep.

Should have finished the job
when I had the chance.

HE SIGHS

Oh, my God!

Anna?

Anna.

Anna!

Rebecca.

Please tell me no-one's dead.

My name...

is Adrian Tintagel.

I am ecstatic in my salvation.

I am at your service.

What did he say?

Something about
being in your cervix.

Where am I?

Hotel Babylon.

That's not possible. The Earth...

Still very, very here.

The others?

Still unconscious.

You see, you weren't saved, Adrian.

No little green men
are coming for you.

Unless, of course, they're wearing
white coats, that is.

Enjoy your breakfast, sir.

Thanks.

Cheers.

Enjoy.
Cheers.

I'll, er, sign your autograph book
now, if you want.

Thanks, but it's full.

Right.

PLAYERS CHAT

RUMBLING

Well, Mr Tintagel,

I do hope that your next visit

is under slightly less
apocalyptic circumstances.

Am I eligible for Air Miles
on this card?

Well, yes, you are, sir,
but only as far as Alpha Centauri.

After that, you're on your own.

You have my account ready?

Of course, sir.

Also, I'd like a taxi to take me
to Heathrow.

There's a cab rank outside, sir.

Mm-hm. I'm sorry - what?

There is a cab rank outside.

No, I mean, I would like you
to order me a taxi.

I'm afraid that's
not gonna be possible, Mr...

Mr Milandrokovic.

I will have the number of
your plastic surgeon, though.

We get all sorts in here
who need help to... disappear.

PAPER RUSTLES

You!

Take my cases to the taxi.
Leave 'em.

I'm sorry, sir.

Order him
to take my cases to the taxi.

Or what?

Somebody take my cases to the taxi,
NOW!

As manager of this hotel,

I demand that you make someone
carry my cases to the taxi.

I can't do that, so I'm afraid

you're gonna have to
carry them out yourself.

Tanya...

TRANSLATION:

TYRES SCREECH

CHARLIE: A famous pig once said,

"All men are equal, but some
are more equal than others."

But it's precisely because
it's always the pigs

who say stuff like that

that the rest of us
shouldn't accept it.

RADIO COMMENTATOR:
'I can't believe this.

'The captain, David Osbourne,
has just been sick on the touchline.

'Apart from Clive Hocker,
who scored a tremendous goal,

'the United players have been
on and off the pitch

'during this remarkable game.

'The manager Peter Yardley's job
must surely be

'hanging by a thread...'
No!

THEY LAUGH
'Oh, and look at that.

'Look at that. There are more
players leaving the field

'and they're throwing up.

'And there's the whistle.

'It's 4-1 to the winners
of the Conference League,

'and the Premiership giants
are out of the cup.'

Revenge is, indeed, sweet.

Yeah, like a pina colada
with a cherry-brandy chase, eh?

CHARLIE: 'I can't speak for staff
at other hotels

'but here at Hotel Babylon,
we'll put up with a lot.

'Like I said,
just don't take the piss.

'And don't... make us angry.

'You know why.'
