All language subtitles for Minder s03e09 Why Pay Tax

Thank you.

It'd be so good for you.

Love you like you want it to.

It'd be so good for you.

Love you like you want it to.

What do you reckon? Any chance?

Not a lot.

How about they're my lucky numbers, one
and two?

Can't you count after those?

Yes, yes.

I'd just get stuck after four.

Pay in tax.

Oh, yes, the only way to do it, isn't
it?

So they say.

This guy's had a result of two winners,
and he's on a 12 -to -1 for the treble.

Get him a bonus credit round, wouldn't
you?

Do it at the pool, mate.

Not difficult, darling. Numbers,
mathematics.

Didn't you get no level?

Woodwork.

Don't point at the woodwork here. The
punters can't give me their bets.

Hello, Jim. Sorry, mate. Here we go.

Any luck?

Oh, not a thing.

Same as him.

You're new here, aren't you?

You're quick.

Well,

no, I'm not quick, but I am a trier.

You know the work, don't you? I mean,
you'd look better to be on a roulette

table down Curzon Street.

I can't live with no test girls. You
work there.

I've got an idea.

I could tell you my complete life story
when you finish work, how's that?

No, thanks.

Not even a runner?

Not even under started orders.

I was Charlie's wife.

You?

Old Charlie's wife?

Of course. I'm sorry.

No.

It's five months now.

No, it don't matter. I was well out of
order. I'm sorry.

Why? I mean, people are a bit surprised
he was a bit older than me, but he was

lovely, my Charlie.

Charlie? Well, smashing bloke, yeah.

Thanks.

So you're going to manage your shop by
yourself, are you?

Yeah, why not?

I've been around bookmakers all my life.

Charlie, my dad was a bookie, and his
brother.

I didn't have nursery rhymes when I was
a kid. I was just brought up when the

runners and riders were Kempton Park and
the time formed Black Book.

I've been looking for someone like you
since I was 14 years old.

You work for Arthur Daly, don't you?

No, no, not for.

With.

You'll still have a drink after you've
finished, can't you?

OK, just for a drink.

That's right, yeah.

Where?

Boozer on the corner?

Yeah, all right.

Right, about to pick, say.

Seven. And don't forget my winnings.

Terry!

Where are you?

Well, I'm here, aren't I?

Yeah, well, I'm over there in a boozer.
Been there for a quarter of an hour.

Oh, wouldn't anybody buy you a drink?

There is always a flock of respected
people ready to buy me a drink.

And you?

Britter in your heart earned away on the
horses?

No. Dogs. Acne. Oh, dear, you've got no
class, have you?

Royal Ascot, Epsom, glorious Goodwood.
What do you do?

Acne.

Barry's been murdered.

Do what?

Barry's been murdered.

No, I don't believe it.

Who? How? I mean, shot?

Strangled? No, no, no, not murdered,
murdered. Murdered by the horses

Oh, that.

Take Eve, my old son. If a bookie like
Barry can't win, who can?

Yeah, but he does lay odds for some very
nasty people, doesn't he? No, no, no,

not nasty.

Just people who can't get credit with
kosher turf accountants.

And people who do not like paying tax.

Who does, Arthur?

Anyway. He needs you.

He's going to pay out today.

What? What am I supposed to do?

Well, company.

Go with him to the bank.

Do I get paid for my company?

Yeah, OK, yeah.

Well,

go on, then.

What, you mean this minute? Yeah.

All right.

Aren't you coming?

No, no, no, no. I've seen a bank.

Anyway, I've got to see a fellow about
some fireplaces.

Some what?

Fireplaces.

Victoriana.

They're knocking down some old houses.

And I can sell the fireplaces to decent,
middle -class people who want to

gentrify their houses after they've
evicted the sitting tenants who put in

ice -beam gas fires.

Say that again?

Fashion.

Fashion full circle. Don't you ever read
the houses and gardens?

You want the house?

Oh, and whatever you've got. I mean,
it's just rubbish, isn't it? I mean, no

intrinsic value.

Well, in that case, what do you want?

I'm a collector, Pat.

The name's Dermot.

All right, Pat, I'll call you Dermot.

I'll tell you what, I'll give you a
score apiece, but intact.

I don't want no damaged goods.

I see that article the other day.

Quite fashionable, these things.

How's the garden?

Never. What, these?

Look, would you want one of them in your
house?

Of course not.

I've got underfloor heating.

Well, there you are, then.

Hey, do you know the Romans invented
that?

Yeah. Funnily enough, I got the stuff
from two Greeks.

Greeks, Romans, all part of our Western
culture pattern.

Isn't it, Dermot?

Here, cop that. Let's get a move on, eh?
Why, what's occurred?

In about two minutes, I'm liable to be
nicked.

What have you done?

Nah, it's a young 'un. Night ring, sus.

I'm doing outside a bank, eh?

When you gonna make the payout?

Later. But don't leave me alone.

I get nervous when I'm carrying cash.

How much have you got in here, then?

23k.

Every load, innit?

Bad week.

Week? That was the day.

It's a high -risk business, mine.

So it seems, yeah.

Well, most of the time it's a good
living.

Well, not like lab rugs. You know, the
margin's dicey.

And the people I associate with, they
don't like to hang about for their

winnings.

Oh, the only thing is, I've got a meet
tonight.

Oh, that's nice.

You'll be through by nine.

Oh, well, could we just pop in and see a
friend?

It'll only take two minutes.

You'll make it sharpish.

All right. I'll tell you what, swing a
left here.

Ah,

um, you know we're going to have a meet
tonight?

Yeah. Well, something's come up.

Oh, yeah.

No, no, I'll be finished by nine.

Yeah. So I thought maybe we could go out
and have a little meal.

Listen, what happened to my bed?

You lost.

Terrific, isn't it?

Do you know Mr Wong's?

Yeah. I thought maybe we could meet
there, have a bit of sweet and sour and

various and... You don't look too
thrilled.

Well, we were just going to have a
drink.

Yeah, right, so now we're going to have
a meal instead.

Listen, Terry, you're not even under
guarded order.

Leave me out.

All I'm saying is we're going to have a
meal.

OK.

Great.

I'm well known at Mr Wong's, you know.

Oh, yes.

See you.

Just a thing for now, Dave. Now the
night's a -drawing in. A really cheery

I don't know, Arthur.

No, no, you just listen to me, Dave. I
mean, take a place like this. I mean,

look at the decoration.

Oh, she chose the wallpaper.

She's certainly got an eye for interior
decoration, Dave. But as I was saying,

you imagine a roaring fire, warm hearth,
lovely mantelpiece.

It's more sort of welcoming, isn't it?

Yeah, I like the nice fire myself,
Arthur.

I mean, you imagine, for example, Dave,
a lovely fireplace just there.

No, no, not there, Arthur. That's only
our board wall, that is.

How about there?

That's party wall.

Straight through in the butcher's deep
freeze.

They can do anything these days, Dave.
All them architects.

I mean, we're not talking about
rebuilding Rome, are we? We're talking

simple chimney.

Now, I happen to know the district
surveyor.

Personal friend, as a matter of fact.

Members only, old pal.

Just a visitor, mister.

Oh, hello, Pat.

How's it going, Dermot?

What'll it be?

Half a guinness? Just a dry martini with
a dash of lemonade and lots of voice,

please.

How about them four, please?

Can they give you any cud?

Later.

I'll get it back.

Sound a bit confident?

Because he's a mug punter.

You a betting man?

Well, I like to punt. Yeah, nothing big
done.

And do you win?

I'm about even, I think.

That's what they all say, Terry.

Occasionally they get lucky, and
suddenly they think they're winners.

I used to punt, you can't read the book.

Clients, that's a lie.

I call them mugs.

I despise them. No, really.

Do something else, then.

What?

Insurance?

Stockbroker?

Odds on a man's life?

A bottle of whiskey a day?

50 cigarettes a day, he'll die before
he's 60.

Well, I'd like to get some of them on.

It's all in a book.

That's all right, then. Looks like no
one's following us.

Should anybody be following us?

It's nice, isn't it?

Yeah, they like this.

Places like this.

No prying eyes and all that.

Sometimes I forget the combination.

That's him. The big saloon.

It shall be a minute.

16k, eh?

You want me to come with you? No, no. No
problem.

Hi. There you go, Ray.

Say, you aren't Ray.

Just a minute.

Terry! Terry!

Help me.

Ray, help us.

A man robbed me.

Get us to the hospital.

It's Terry. He could die.

What are you talking about, robbed?

He nicked my dough.

Ray, just help us. Get him in the car,
please.

Your dough?

That's my dad.

I think

you should stay here for the night.

No chance.

I have three days off work.

What work?

I beg your pardon?

Nothing, it don't matter.

Well, just take it easy.

Another drink, Mrs Warner?

I don't want help.

If you meet Mr. McCann, just tell him
he's lost another bet.

Oi, what are you doing still in bed?

And on your own?

What are you doing with the key to my
flat?

Well, letting myself in.

No, no, no, don't go back to the kit.
Come on, I need help.

I've got some fireplaces I want shifted
over to the lock -up.

I do not feel like pumping fireplaces
around.

I've got a bad back. Yeah, so have I.

So have you.

Eight stitches, that is.

Doctor said I've got to rest for a few
days.

Doctors, what do they know?

What did you do, slip?

Yeah, I slipped while some other geezer
was trying to decapitate me.

No, bit of bother?

No, well spotted.

Well, I mean, in your trade, that's
industrial injury, isn't it? It's one of

hazards of your profession.

Thanks very much for all your sympathy.

No, that's all right, Terry.

Patrick?

Listen, this mate of yours buried a
book.

What do you reckon on it, mate?

18 carat. No, no, no.

22 carat. One of our own.

Oh, no.

That's what I mean.

What do you mean, that's what you mean?
Come on, get up. Make us a cup of tea.

I'm an invalid.

Surely you can pour a drop of hot water
on a tea bag, can't you?

No.

Terry, you know what your trouble is?

Self, self, self.

Lolly?

Lolly?

Look, I know what you're thinking.

Yeah, that's right.

I couldn't find her or anything. I was
at the hospital.

Meekles?

No, not me. Look, I'm... I'm sorry,
really.

Why did you go to the hospital?

Oh, it doesn't matter. It's nothing
serious or anything.

Look, have you got an hour or so at
lunchtime?

Where?

Anywhere.

Er, the boozer?

I've got to be back for the first race
at Cattery.

12 .30 then?

Yeah, smashing, yeah.

Um, I'm sorry.

No, just don't blow me out again, okay?

Terrible thing last night. You OK?

Yeah, I'm fine, fine.

Terry? I was just saying to Terry...
Come in.

The thing's the back on me. You set it
up. Me?

Yes, you. Set it up. You got it all
wrong.

Look, I saw you in the hospital, didn't
I? You were having kittens.

No, look, look. Terry gets a bit
impetuous. I've been telling him, in my

you are 18 current.

I apologise.

I'm sorry.

Oh. He's sorry. He apologises. What are
you saying, eh? Are you owning up? Is

that what you're saying?

It all went wrong, Tel.

Don't! Don't!

Don't! Don't! Don't! Don't! Don't!
Don't! Don't! Don't! Don't! Don't!

Don't!

Don't!

It was going to be simple.

You were just there as a witness.

So when Ray Newell drove in the car
park, you'd substantiate my story. A guy

robbed me. But you were too quick,
Terry.

I swear, my life. The guy was going to
drive off, that's all.

But when you grabbed the car door, the
man panicked. He didn't know what to do.

You were too brave, Terry.

Fool to himself.

There you are, Terry. You are too brave.

Yeah. Eight stitches too brave.

All right, then, what was the mood,
yeah?

Waste paper in the envelope.

Did you seriously think that Ray Newell
would swallow that?

What else?

Hobskin.

I beg your pardon?

Hobskin. I don't know what you said.
Just took a few seconds to think in.

Oi, you haven't weighed in for Terry's
performance last night, yeah?

Oh, God.

I don't know. He'll be all right.

I'd better.

So, what am I going to do?

Have an early holiday.

What's he going to do? Ray.

He's not going to kill me, is he?

You can ask him yourself in a minute.

I am not talking about your problems.

What I am worrying about...

It's my dough.

Well, you see, Ray, well, you were
there.

I don't care.

You lost your money, so, as I've told
you, that's your fault.

We don't want to have a fight about it,
do we?

I mean, I've given up fighting.

Cyril? He doesn't fight.

Ram? He doesn't want to fight in case he
spoils his suit.

Mind you, he's pretty handy with that
kickbox and all the martial arts.

Arthur, you don't want to fight, do you?

No, no, no. As a matter of fact, we were
just on our way out.

How's your back?

Fine.

Nasty wound.

Oh.

Where's my money?

I need time.

Oh, you are terrific. I mean, just look
at him.

I do bets with you every week. It must
have been thousands over the months, and

I have a little tickle, and you don't
pay.

Would you believe that?

Well, as I was about to say, it's really
nothing to do with us, is it? I want

you to stay to see fair play.

Fine, fine, but I've got some business.

Haven't I?

Your car keys.

Why? Why?

Because you owe me 16 grand.

Keys.

Now, let's see.

BMW, quite nice condition.

Shall we say... 3

,500. Fair?

Oh, I don't know about that.

Oh, yes, it is very fair, Barry.

It is not a seller's market, Barry.

Logbook. Oh, Ram.

Go find his cash.

Right.

What do you reckon, Cyril?

Well,

a sober table's nice.

Regency.

Mahogany. Say 400.

400?

People hear Regency and they think
they've got a gold mine.

Put it in an auction.

You won't get any more.

400.

Dining chairs, Victorian set of six.

Nice condition.

Two -fifth... Two -eight -five.

Two -eight -five.

Pretty.

Carriage clock.

Movement by Boldviller of Paris.

Four hundred and fifty.

Cyril.

That chair.

Oh, sorry.

Very good repro.

That's a George II library chair.

You've been done, Barry.

I mean, just look at it.

It's too perfect.

Look at this carving.

These edges.

They should be beveled by time.

We're talking about a piece that should
have been made, ooh, 250 years ago.

I reckon this was done just before the
First World War.

Handsome, I'll agree.

But not George II. Sorry.

200.

He's mustard, this bloke, isn't he? He's
better than a fellow on a telly.

Where did you get the looking glass,
Barry?

Oh, I don't know, a junk shop.

Really?

We're talking about 600 pounds.

Quite early?

Original condition?

Very fine.

Oh, this is your lucky day, Barry.

Late 19th century.

250.

Four landscape watercolours.

Simple stuff.

50 apiece. Oh, I'll have one of them if
it's OK.

Why not?

Cash. Oh, yeah, of course.

Her indoors likes a nice watercolour.
Oi, whose side are you on?

You don't mind, do you, Barry?

See what I've got.

Bird's -eye dough.

Well, what's this worth after it thaws
out?

2K. Eh?

2 ,000.

Oh.

Have you got any more in your airing
cupboard?

Graham, er...

Start to get this stuff outside, will
you? Me?

You know I don't do manual work, man.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about that.

Well, get those other fellows up here.

Tell them to bring my car.

Now, I'd just like you to check these
figures with me, Barry.

That's £9 ,876, OK?

Yeah, anything you say.

Now, £16 ,000 minus... Well, we're
talking about £6 ,100.

We won't bother about the £24.

When? I don't know.

Really?

Let's say three days?

I haven't got it.

I do like this guy.

Am I being reasonable, Arthur?

It's a debt of honour, Barry.

I don't like violence.

I can't sue you. I can't get the
ombudsman to write to you.

I need time.

No.

If you're not going to give it to me, I
am going to hurt you.

What do you mean?

I've told you.

I'm not a violent man.

But I've got to have some satisfaction.

Well, you understand that, eh?

Now, if you get away with this, what
will the others do?

They'll all start to knock me.

And if I let you get away with this,
you're turning me into a right wally.

Tell him, Arthur.

Well, Barry, what I think Ray's saying
is you've got to be fair.

Now, what is an arm or a leg?

£6 ,000?

Personally, I'd rather have the money.

But if I don't get the money, it's got
to be an arm or a leg.

Wouldn't I make a pot of tea with you?

No.

Anyway, they've taken all the cups,
haven't they?

In and out, no mess.

Very efficient.

They're better than Pickford's.

Does he mean it?

Yeah, I think he does.

Well, of course he means it.

You can't blame the man, can you?

I mean, can you fault his logic? No.

He's been paying you all this time, and
now you can't pay him. So he's got the

hump.

Seems reasonable to me.

He isn't giving me a chance.

A few weeks, I'll be OK.

Yeah, I don't suppose you can... No, no,
no, no.

Oh, don't never a debtor, nor a lender
be, nor a... Just a long shot off. No,

no, no, against my principles, Barry.

Now, the best thing for you now is have
a very early holiday.

Terence, time for my lunch.

What time is it? Nearly one.

One? Oh, Daddy!

Terry knew Dolly Warner?

Oh, yeah, very close.

Right little bird bandit, Terry.

I think he's in love.

Dolly, I'm sorry.

I mean, there was no way I could do
anything, honestly.

Piss off.

Now, what we are talking about, Terry,
is a moral dilemma.

I thought we were talking about breaking
a leg.

Precisely. Six grand or a leg. I mean,
is that a fine distinction?

Of course they're bleeding this.

Listen, look, the fella not grey.

People like us can't trust ourselves.

Who can we trust?

I wish the Inland Revenue would give us
an option.

Six grand or a leg. It'd be nice,
wouldn't it?

You wouldn't have any legs, would you?
Or arms. Look, listen, my son, it's a

-eat -dog world.

In a couple of minutes, I'm going to
stitch up a simple Irishman.

What's wrong with that, eh?

Look at that.

Very nice, Pat.

Any more, Dermot?

A few.

But here is something else. Oh, yeah?

How about that?

Another fireplace.

Do you know what that is? A fireplace?

An original Adam fireplace.

Oh, yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, I mean,
that's obvious, isn't it?

Do you remember the big Georgian house
at the end of the street?

No. Well, I got that there.

And I know an Adam fireplace has got to
be valuable.

No, no, not particularly.

It's a nice clean job.

Oh, I've cleaned it up all right.

What do you reckon?

Me? Yeah.

One of our staff.

Bit of a connoisseur.

Well, it's, uh... It's old Adam,
obviously.

The real McCoy?

Yeah, that's him. Adam McCoy, he's the
one.

Now, look, Pat, I know you're just a
simple artisan, Dermot, but, uh, what

you expecting for this item?

Four hundreds.

Four what?

You've got Irish bananas?

Four hundreds.

Ah, look, don't let's quibble, Pat.

I'm a very fair man, Dermot.

I'll give you a ton.

No, sir.

Well, Adam, what's -his -name is well
known in the fireplace business.

Highly respected.

You're a hard man, but I like my figure.

No, no, no, I can't do it. Come on.

I'll tell you what.

300 will touch hands now.

Don't.

Thing of beauty, Terry.

I knew it immediately.

Get off!

It's Robert Adam.

The governor, they reckon.

Oh, he'd be well pleased to know the
punters still get so much pleasure after

all these years.

Oh, dear, I bet the Irishman would be
well pleased. I don't know, five grand?

More, possibly.

I knew it, Terry. I could feel it in me
water.

That is why I am an entrepreneur, not
your simple general trader.

Oh, yeah, I know that.

I'm sick now.

Arthur Daly takes over Arrods.

Cheap jibe, Terence, cheap jibe, but it
could happen.

And you'd be very happy to be part of
the firm.

Meanwhile, round to Desi's garage, get a
van for tonight, pick up the rest of

them fireplaces.

Oh, no, no, not tonight, no.

Why not?

Er, Dolly.

I thought you'd had a ruck.

Yeah, but you know me.

Smooth talker.

See, that's the difference.

You've got the dough.

I've got the charm.

Keep the home fires burning.

Eh? Yeah?

Hello, Peter. How's your luck?

No, of course I'm still in business.
What do you mean?

Where did you get that idea?

No.

Yeah? Kempton?

Three o 'clock?

Bandy Ladd.

What's that? B -A -N -D -Y.

Bandy Ladd.

Monkey to win.

You're on, son.

Peter, I hate to ask you this, but I
need the cash.

Cheers.

See, I told you I was well known here.

Why?

Oh, er, well, I did a fake phone.

There was a bit of bothering about 14
months ago.

Like what?

Well, it was nothing serious. It was
just a couple of young tearaways

the pundits. And you sorted it out?

Well, basically, yeah.

Have you ever thought about getting a
job?

Eh? Yeah, job.

You know, employment, career, pay packet
at the end of the week, promotion.

Pension?

You think that's funny, don't you?

No, no, I just think you're having a pop
at me, that's all.

No, I'm not.

Why does everybody want me to get a nice
job?

Because you haven't got a job.

Arthur Daly, that's not a job. He's a
small -time gangster.

Gangster, Arthur?

Do you like him?

Of course I like him. He's a mate.

All right, all right, I'll own up. He's
a bit dishonest, right?

A bit of a liar? Well, no.

Not really a liar, but... Well...

Bit of a rogue, that's all.

That's only the nice side of his
character.

I give up.

Voila, as they say.

Nice, eh?

Oh, yes, nicely in job. That's exactly
what I said.

Robert Adam, as you well know.

That was Adam and... Adam? Oh, indeed
there is.

Yes.

Just as I thought.

Fine.

That's an Adam.

Knew it straight away.

Not from his factory, that's the rub,
Arthur.

Factory? I got this from a Georgian
house.

They were all at it in those days.

Just as nice.

But not from the master's workshop.

If it were a nice one from him, we'd be
talking about five grand.

Plus... Oh, that's what I thought.

I placed it at the end of the 18th
century, circa 1790.

Oh, that is old, you know.

It is, Arthur.

But it's only 600 pounds.

Are you sure?

Sorry.

Well, it's better than my place, yeah.

One of these days you might see inside.

I thought maybe I could come in for a
coffee.

I don't think you're really the coffee
type, are you?

OK.

Well, thanks for a lovely evening.

I bet.

No, really, I mean it.

Thanks.

Bloody hell.

What's the matter?

No, I'm sorry.

It's my shoulder. It was stitches.

Sorry. I thought it was passion.

Well, it could be.

Don't let it put you off.

You don't work in the day, do you?

No, not very often, no.

Would you like to come racing tomorrow?

I've got some people I've got to meet at
Kempton Park.

Do you fancy it?

Yeah. Yeah, please.

Smash it.

Right. Can you pick me up here at 12,
yeah?

Of course I can.

How come I'm not invited?

I don't know.

Just not at all.

Am I a leper?

I don't know.

Well, only in the social sense.

Jacket?

It's lovely, isn't it?

Here I am lending you my best bins.

You're going off to have a day out and
I'm going to be umping fireplaces.

It's tough being a whatchamacallit,
isn't it? An entrepreneur, isn't it?

Still, it's only Kempton Park, isn't it?
It's not as if we're talking about

Royal Ascot.

Still, it's better than unbeaten
fireplaces, isn't it?

Look up on your way out.

Oh, come on, Dolly. I've just had a
rough spell.

The bookies I worked for, they was
getting greedy.

They wanted to cut my commission.

And the big firms won't entertain me.

That's why I'm asking you to take a
small bet.

What's small?

A monkey.

And it isn't even a favourite.

The punter will take starting price, so
you can shave a few points by laying out

on the opening prices.

Simple, eh?

Yes, it is simple.

Cash.

Bad lad.

Kempton. Three o 'clock.

Well, it so happens I'm going to
Kempton, so I'll lay it on the court.

Well, it's all the better.

I'm really grateful to you, Dolly.

See, I'm doing this for a pal of mine.

He's in real trouble.

Like what?

He might lose his legs.

Barry. Nice people you mix with.

Friends, Dolly. You can't disown
friends.

He's one of our own, old Terry. Terry
who?

Oh, you wouldn't know him.

It's a guy called Terry McCann.

You say he's in trouble?

I didn't know you knew Tell.

What's wrong with him?

It's nothing. I shouldn't have told you.
What's happened?

I'm sorry, but since you know him, you
know what he's like.

No. No, I don't.

He's always getting into scrapes. I
blame that Arthur, but he will not

Just between you and me, there's a right
tasty mob after him.

He owes them 6K.

They're after crippling him.

Is that one of your horses?

No, Terry, it's Nijinsky.

Won the derby, the 2000 guinea, King
George VI, Queen Elizabeth's diamond

and St. Ledger as well.

I'm full, mate.

It's called breeding, Terry.

Listen, you don't seem too happy about
her little excuse.

Don't be silly.

Have I got the wrong suit on or
something?

It's smashing. Come on, let's go.

Er... What was Barry Duncan doing here?

Oh, it's just a business call. That's
not a crime, is it?

You never know with Barry, do you? Yeah.

Good friends, are you?

Friends? Barry and me? Oh, yeah.

Terrific.

Put me in hospital.

You know, the shoulder.

Then he stopped me from seeing you the
other night. Apart from that, we're

terrific pals, certainly.

I know all about it, Terry.

What?

You know.

No, what are you talking about?

Don't kid me.

What are you going on about? You don't
care, do you? Look at you, relaxed, cool

as a cucumber, sitting down. No, no, I'm
standing up. Oh, well, you know what I

mean. Did he ask you for money?

It doesn't matter. How much?

Just get in the car. No, how much?

Enough to buy you a wheelchair.

Oh, Dolly, you're really great.

Stupid cow.

It is an authentic Adam, Peter. From the
master's own workshop, Adam. We can

vouch for that.

And you're asking 5 ,500?

Very rare, Peter.

Yes, I'm afraid so. 5 ,500.

Oh.

Excuse me just a moment.

Have you seen Barry?

15 minutes ago, he'd come up with
trumps.

It was a prize day.

You never know in this world.

Yeah, but you nicked it, didn't you?
From a friend of mine.

It's in the bank, son.

But he thieved it.

A lot of people do. He owed me.

Now he's owing a friend of yours.

Now, I don't care where he got it,
Fenita.

He's a wrong 'un.

Oh, look.

We all duck and dive.

But that Barry, he's disrupting the
whole alternative economy.

Cheat a bit, rob a bit, that's business.

But gambling debts, that's indecent.

Come on, get up!

Get up!

Why?

You'll only hit me again.

Ray was going to break my legs. Are you?

I vote tougher people than you, Terry.

You don't even care, do you?

Why didn't you rob a bank or something?

You'd get nicked for that.

But why Dolly? Why her?

I like long shots.

She'll get it back.

Eventually.

When eventually?

I don't know.

The thing is, I'm a very dishonest man.

Of all people, Barry!

He can be very persuasive.

Of course he can be very persuasive.
That's his game, isn't it? I was trying

help you.

I don't need any help.

Anyway, the one who needed help was
Barry, wasn't it? I didn't know that.

No, all right, I know... No, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm very grateful, honestly,
right?

I'm just not used to people doing
favours for me.

Oh, I'd do one again, I can promise you.

No, I didn't mean that.

No, I really liked it.

Not six grand, do you understand?

It's really nice to know you've got
someone in your corner for once.

And I tell you, I'll get it all back.

Forget it.

You can buy me a drink.

Sometime. Tonight?

No.

Some other night.

I was hoping we'd have quite a few
nights.

No.

You're trouble, Terry, aren't you?

Trouble, mate? No, are you kidding?

No.

It's true, Terry. You're a nice bloke,
but you're trouble, and you always will

be. Believe it, you don't even know me.

I know I've only met you three days, but
you've stood me up three times. You've

been to the hospital once, you've had
two fights.

If you're not hitting people, you're
chasing them. You mix with rotten

And you're bad news, Terry.

Oh.

Oh, terrific.

Cheers. You know it, don't you?

No, it's been a bad week.

Spare me the good weeks.

Listen.

I'm supposed to be a very shrewd,
capable businesswoman.

I just have to be more careful next
time.

You and me are going to be good friends.

And that's it.

Good friends?

OK.

I'll still put your bets on.

One and two, happily reversed.

And I'll still pay the tax.

And if I see Barry...

Don't worry about him.

I'll get it.

The bird bandit looks a bit downcast.

Don't you start.

Terry, you are beginning to sound more
and more like Erlin Dawes every day.

So, you had a blank.

Just shut up, will you?

That's her. Do a tea.

How'd you get on with the old Adam,
then?

Oh, reasonable.

Got a bit more than a day with the
Irishman.

Well, he wouldn't understand, would he?

Rare piece, that.

No, no, no, not that rare. I had it
valued, authenticated, the whole thing.

Not five grand?

Eh?

Five grand? What are you talking about?

Well, I was just browsing in the antique
shop, you know, Ray and Cyril were

there, and... Five grand?

You're winding me up, aren't you?

It's all a bet.

I've changed the situation.

Right people, right time, just the wrong
location.

I've got a good idea.

If you keep me near, I'll be so good for
you. I'm

going to help you.

Love you like you want me to.

I'll do anything for you.

I'll be so cool for you. I could be so
good for you.

I'll do it like you want me to. Love you
like you want me to.
