I'm staying with Ronnie.

If we do get stopped, it's better I'm with him.

As we were, then. Me and Jamie.

Catch you up on the motorway. If we get stopped...

That's fair enough.

I'm not letting him down, am I?

Not going with you? Never.

There's no rules.

You deal with this in your own way.

I don't wanna go inside.

We can sit here for as long as you like.

Tell the undertaker I want him looking smart.

Yeah.

He likes his clothes.

I texted Jamie.

He's going to drop off a few of his suits.

I think I like the navy blue one the best.

Thanks, Michael.

I'm glad he's home.

We did the right thing.

Yeah. We did.

Will you speak?

Me, you, Duffy, Jamie. There's things to discuss.

I'll sort it.

I'm gonna send you a picture of a passport,

some beaut called Steven Seed.

He's a mate of Jamie's, and he was on the ferry.

That's interesting.

Yeah. OK.

We need to get him isolated, find out what he knows.

I wanna talk to him. Yeah.

Talk to you in the morning.

Oh, God. Where have you been?

I've missed you so much, babe.

I've missed you too.

I've been thinking about you nonstop.

I've been so worried about you.

Just listen. Listen to me.

I get it. I absolutely get it.

But it needs to be over.

Yeah. Yeah.

I don't wanna lose you.

I'm going nowhere, babe.

Oh, God, I really don't want to lose you.

I promise.

I promise it will all be over soon.

Because I just want you.

You and me.

How does this read?

It's Ronnie's notice for the newspaper.

Yeah.

Yeah. It's nice.

It's lovely.

Have you thought any more about who did it?

All the time.

Have you thought about why?

Well, he had his fair share of enemies.

He'd upset more than his fair share of people.

Bad people.

As Bobby says...

..he didn't do quiet.

Just wish he'd come to bed.

And that this isn't the beginning of something really bad.

Why can't we meet somewhere normal,

like a car park?

There's too much dogging in a car park.

Where's Jamie? On his way.

He's picking up the death certificate.

Bastard spiked my drink - on the ferry.

Nah...

Why would he do that?

Have you pulled him? Was it a joke?

Was it a bad joke? You sure, Mike?

Morning, boys.

All very homoerotic, this.

I was just telling the lads...

..how you spiked my drink.

What, when was that?

You're paranoid, you.

No. I don't think so.

All right, you're just chatting shit, then.

Death certificate sorted, Jay?

All done. Heart attack.

Brought on by a blade.

Right. On to practicalities.

We protect our markets, our lines.

We get on to every grafter, every connection we've got.

Yeah? Ronnie's gone and we're devastated,

but it's still business as usual.

It's not, though, is it? How can it be business as usual?

We've got nothin' to sell.

The Amigos have agreed to send us another load.

I told them Ronnie asking for time was bullshit.

I told them the truth -

that we've been fucked over

and that we've lost our entire supply.

I'm sure they were very impressed.

So...two or three weeks' wait time and we're back.

Even two weeks is too long. The lines are dry.

We need lemo now.

And how do we do that, Jay?

Are you asking me? Yeah.

Right, I say we go to 'Dam and we use the Albanians.

They sell quality product, they sell it cheap,

and it's next-day delivery. No.

They're the fucking Amazon of narcotics.

I just told you no.

As far as I'm concerned, it's good business.

Deal with the Albanians once,

and before you know it, they've moved in.

You can't keep them out forever.

We're not London.

We're Liverpool.

And Liverpool's ours.

The lines in and out belong to us.

There's six flights a day. We can be there dinner time.

Never.

Never. And yer aul' fella would say the same.

I really don't think he would.

Is this when you think you're a man now? Are you in charge?

Did I say that?

Come on. Are you?

Am I in charge, Duff?

I assume so.

Yeah.

As expected. Michael's in charge.

Hope I don't need to start wearing a vest,

You're safe enough till after the funeral.

No-one's gonna make a move before then.

that Billy the Kid off the streets, though.

I don't want him talking to Michael.

The lad knows too much.

Does Michael even know who Billy is?

Yeah, he kicked fuck out of him at that chop house,

didn't he? So he knows he's involved.

He'll be round his bird's house, him, you know.

Billy? Yeah.

How was it?

It's hard to say... seeing how it all ended.

You do know?

Was Davy actually there?

It's just there's...

..no sign of him in the photographs.

Yeah. First day he was there.

And then he went to see a friend.

You should ask Michael.

Michael tells lies.

He went to see a friend, Cheryl.

That's all I know.

Is there a reason he's not answering his phone?

I... I don't know.

I'm sorry too.

Was he there when Ronnie died?

He'd left by then. Yeah.

You're asking the wrong person.

Why did he decide against it?

The...The cameras - all over the boat.

Jamie robbed a truckload of lemo off his aul' fella worth millions.

Where is it?

He didn't, did he?

Why would he do that?

Where is it?
