BOOMBAAA

Texas Rangers.

I've got this cheap from that Chinese that closed down in Digbeth.

No doubt about it, Ken. That safe will deter even the most determined of

larcenists. Now, the guests at the coaching inn can sleep soundly in their

knowing anything they've got of value is totally secure.

Good morning, sir. Can I help you?

Has Mr Wyman checked in yet? I'll just find out for you, sir.

Morning.

Good morning.

Oh, dear.

Where do you have this done, Winston Green?

Thank you. Yes, we have checked things, though. Would you like me to call his

room? Please.

Who shall I say is here? Mr Franklin.

Yes, I can sound.

What? Your passport.

Your passport? Is that all you've got in there? I thought we were going to put

the crown jewels in. Mr Franklin, I'm excited to see you.

Certainly. If you'd like to go up, Mr Franklin, that's room seven.

It's up the stairs and it's on the left.

Kent, about this trip.

Are you fixed?

Hi.

Listen.

Especially for you.

It's Italian.

Ah, si.

It is so good.

Please.

What the hell are you doing?

People want to eat.

One for delivery.

Where's the address?

Ciao.

Ciao.

Well, you must have one.

Well, I don't know.

Everybody's got a passport, Ken. Not me.

You mean to say you've never been abroad?

Of course I have.

It's the other way.

Oh, very funny, Ken. You don't seem to realise, yes, that this trip with the

licensed victuals will be the chance of a lifetime, mate. I've got no desire to

go to L .A. with the L .V.

L .V.? Yeah, that's what I said.

L .V., not L .A. We're going to Las Vegas.

Now then, Ken, why don't you want this ticket?

Because you won that in a raffle and you want to charge me for it, don't you?

I knew it would be something paltry.

Paltry? I knew it.

1 ,500 quid?

Cheap rate.

I bet if you were taking a woman, you wouldn't charge her, would you?

Well, that's different, isn't it?

I'm a woman.

No, thanks, Debbie. I want to enjoy myself.

I'll hold on to that ticket for another couple of days, Ken. Give you time to

see sense.

That's the last thing I need, can't I? I'll let you have a bunch of gin

-swigging lice and fitchers.

I wouldn't say no.

You've got 1 ,500 quid.

You could lend it me.

Yeah, if pigs could fly.

What have we got on?

Not a lot.

Rocky's still out.

Yes?

Pizza delivery.

Oh.

One tuna fish and, um, banana.

Oh.

Right, well, you'd better come in while I find some money, then.

Come on, Harry, you're just being tight.

Excuse me.

Could you order me a cab?

Certainly, Mr Franklin.

1 ,500 quid's nothing to you.

Debbie, I am not lending you that money, and that is final.

Give me the ticket, then.

What do you think I am, a charity?

You were quick enough to push it on that woman from Hales, Owen. Just drop it,

Debbie.

Yes, coaching in here.

Yes, I'd like to order a cab right away, please.

What?

Is that the best you can do?

Yes.

It'll be 20 minutes, I'm afraid.

No, that's all right. I'll be in room seven, if you wouldn't mind letting me

know. Yes, sir.

I've never been to America.

Well, you're not going with my party.

Base to Rocky, over.

How do you feel about America?

When?

Soon.

Base to Rocky.

Can you hear me?

Over.

It's not like him.

It's dead like him. Eh?

Harry's not lending me the money to go to Las Vegas.

Well, he doesn't want you tagging along, does he?

I know that.

I don't know why he wants me to go. I would have thought I was a bit down

for his LV mates.

Yeah, well, you're male, and he's a prejudiced prass.

Oh, God, give over. For the past fortnight, he's been trying to force

ticket on anything in a skirt.

Well, he hasn't tried to force it on me.

No?

Well... Come in, Rocky, for goodness sake.

Over.

Where the hell is he?

He's probably gone back to that pizza place.

Ogle that girl again.

Rocky? Yeah, Rocky.

He wouldn't know what to do with a girl.

Ken! Jimmy!

Anyone! Midwife!

Midwife!

Bloody Nora!

That was quick.

Good evening.

Good evening.

You're having the same as usual, Harry?

Yes, please, Jerry. Thank you.

I've seen Mr Wyman.

I'm just waiting for him.

This is quite fortunate, though.

What is? Well, actually, I wanted a quick word with you.

Out of his earshot, as it were.

Of me?

Well, it concerns Mr Wyman.

What's he got a problem with his room? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. The room's fine.

It's... Well, it's to do with something I couldn't help overhearing you mention

this afternoon.

Oh, yes? About America.

Oh, right.

Yes, well, don't take any notice of that girl. She works in the dispatch office.

She's not quite the full two shillings. No, no, it wasn't her. It was the fact

that you had a spare ticket.

Oh, right.

Now, Mr Wyman has recently suffered a bereavement, and because of that, he's

been not too well.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I've been doing my best trying to get him to

go out and start living again, but as you'll appreciate, it's not easy.

Yes, I thought I hadn't seen him about since he's been here. Exactly.

Now, when I overheard your conversation this afternoon, I suddenly remembered

that he has a sister who lives in the States, and seeing her might be just the

thing to give him a lift.

And you thought that my spare ticket might... I was rather hoping.

Well, it's just a little bit of a problem there, Mr Franklin.

I doubt if she lives anywhere near where we are going. It's a big place.

Ah.

Where are you going?

Las Vegas.

I don't believe it.

That's where she lives.

No. What a coincidence.

No, no, no.

Well, we'll have to get together, see if we can arrange something.

And what are you going to have?

A large one.

I've heard enough. I know she's got brown eyes, and I know she's got brown

and I know she speaks Italian.

All light eyes do.

Not like cheese and peanut?

Cobbler's shit.

Morning. Oh, Ken, thanks for that tape. What tape? This one, mate. Really did

the trick. She knows I'm serious now.

What's he talking about?

Some bird.

Hey, that's a bit sexist, isn't it? Only when a fella says it.

Well, as soon as she found out it was Italian, we made all the difference.

Italian? Yeah.

That was...

Spaghetti western music?

Yeah. Spaghetti's Italian, isn't it?

Texas Rangers.

Yeah.

Yeah.

OK.

Tight -fisted, I'll get.

That was Harry.

He's got the delivery for us. Can we go and pick it up, please?

Right, on your bike, Catherine, over.

No, he wants you to go.

What? Well, he says it's important.

He doesn't want any stupid mistakes.

I'm supposed to be the governor.

Oh.

Oi!

Oi!

And where do you think you're going?

To buy some flowers.

True love.

Makes you want to puke.

Mr Wyman, room seven.

What's so important about him? He's going to Las Vegas with me. What?

He wants Texas Rangers to do some running about for him, pick up his

and that.

It seems you're not the only one who hasn't got one.

Hey.

What about me?

You said you didn't want to go.

You said you'd give me two days.

I have done.

Yesterday and today.

Oh, how stupid of me. I mean, I was under the impression you meant whole

Do you want to go?

No.

What are you worried about?

You, you pellet.

Why do you want to flog this ticket anyway?

Well, I'm not having much luck finding a female companion, so I might as well

get what I can out of it.

Debbie's a female.

Ken, I've got a reputation to maintain.

Debbie would hardly announce it, would she?

Eh?

Look, this geezer Wyman, what's he like?

Dunno. Never met him.

This could be a good racket for you, Ken.

I mean, because if he hasn't got a passport, he won't have a visa for the

States. Trip to London, American Embassy.

I just think this could have been you.

Five days of the high life.

But you were too bloody mean.

Ah, do come in.

Mr Crawford.

Mr Wyman.

Was that you pissing about with the bell?

What? The bell. Was it you?

Yeah. Ever thought of trying the door first?

Anyway, what do you want?

Well, I'm supposed to pick up a package for a Mr. Franklin.

You the dispatch rider?

Yeah. Bit old for it, aren't you?

It's my company.

So? Me auntie had a brothel, but when she got to 60, she stopped doing it

herself.

But I'm not 60, love.

I'll get you the package.

Okay, you pop pickers. Here,

cut.

You know where you're going with it?

Yeah, back where I come from.

Yeah, well, if you call again, don't bother with Belle.

Are you Sally, then?

No, I'm Maxine.

Oh, so you don't own this cab?

No, I wish I did.

No, this is part of the Vito Rossi empire.

Who's he when he's at home?

Some Italian geezer. I only see him when he comes in to pay me.

Listen, do you know what's in here?

I haven't a clue.

Look, I come in every day.

I answer the phones, read me books.

Do as I'm told.

Yeah, like I should. That's what you mean, isn't it?

Hey.

Have you got a name, dispatch rider?

Ken. Ken Boone.

Texas Rangers.

Another pickup for you here, Ken.

Another one.

It's your chums, Wyman and Franklin.

Yeah, that's right.

That's the third time today, you know. What do you expect?

They wanted a passport and a bus ticket to Solihull.

Government doesn't hand them over that easy, you know.

Do you know where I'm getting that stuff from?

Again, that's none of my business. As long as I get the price of that ticket,

don't bloody care, mate.

Yeah, which reminds me, they haven't paid me yet.

Well, I'm paying you.

I'll stick it on that hotel bill.

Is this Bina?

Yeah. Huh?

I was wondering if we could see more of each other.

Here? Now?

No, I don't mean more, more. I mean, go out together, I think. Ah, I see.

Well?

Yes, but no.

Well, why not? Don't you like me?

Yes, I like you lashing.

Lashing? But I promise.

What? To another.

Eh? I promise to give myself to another.

My cousin. He come from Italia, and I have to marry him. Oh, an arranged

marriage. Si.

But this England, not Italia.

No difference.

I promise, and that is that.

My father try now to get us from Dover, me.

Over here?

My father, clever. He do it all the time. He get people to come and work

Really?

Do you want to marry him? No.

Be no privy face like him.

Do you know him?

No, I never see him.

Rather show me picture.

Giuseppina, basta.

Abbiamo a trovare.

Smettili di parlare con il cavallone hippie.

Esprigati.

And you.

That pizza will be no good if you mess around much more. So get a move on, eh?

All right, all right, I'm going. Don't get your pizzas in a pickle.

Big head.

Hey, amigo.

Your company?

Eh? That does the deliveries?

Yeah, what about them?

What's its name?

You know, it's nine.

Well, tell us again, pal.

Ah, cowboys.

There's no Indians.

Yeah? Well, see you then.

Hold it, pal. I haven't finished yet.

You know the score?

What score?

Giovanni and us.

Yeah, yeah, I get the message.

But he's still going to go on.

Well, I'm like that.

Oh, we'd advise you to stop.

Knock it on the head.

Listen, mate, this is Birmingham, but I'm going for all that Godfather stuff

round here.

Besides, I'm going to race off.

Race off?

Yeah, you know, that scene in The Godfather where the fellow wakes up in

morning and he's got a horse's head next to him in his bed. Oh, yeah, yeah, that

would be a good scene.

Very good scene.

So that's your final word?

Yeah, yeah, that's my final word.

OK. In that case, you might just have to give your little warning.

Then the cowboys come and cut their own line.

I wouldn't bother if I were you, mate.

We've got a saying in this country.

The course of true love never runs straight.

I can take it.

Bloody Nora.

You sticky talk.

Sticky talk.

Posterior? What's that mean?

It means you've stepped out of line. I'll just pull your finger out.

While I work out how much this is going to cost you, all this mess, I only asked

her out.

That would be enough to freak anybody.

They wouldn't go to all this bother, would they, just for that? What have you

been up to?

Nothing. Sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong. I couldn't even if I

wanted. Why not? Well, have you seen that place?

No. I took the contract.

The kitchen's like Fort Knox.

What for?

I don't know.

All I know is to take an army to get in there.

They're obviously up to some sort of racket.

A pizza house?

They're up to something.

It'll be the mafia.

Leave it out, Debbie.

Drugs and prostitution.

But they're a nice family.

The old man fixed it for people to come over here and work.

Maybe he can fix it for me to go to America.

Aye, maybe that's it.

He's into the illegal immigrant caper and he's using that pizza place as a

house. What, they're smuggling them in, are they, with the mozzarella cheese?

And all this is a warning to me to make sure I don't open me gob.

Well, you know what you've got to do then, don't you? What?

Get back and apologise.

Going in for self -expressionism now, are we?

Rocky's had a run -in with the Mafia.

There is no Mafia in Birmingham.

There is now. They probably thought the bullring was a real one.

What? You know how they like bullfights.

They heard we had a bullring and decided to come to Birmingham.

That's Spaniards, not Italians, you divvy.

Same neck of the woods.

Anyway, I've got a job for you, Ken.

Oh, no, not Abbott and Costello again, is it? Yeah, come on, get your finger

out.

Go away.

Eh?

You.

fornicating person without a father.

Oh, no, I mean... Ah,

Texas Rangers.

A different location this time. Nice ride out for someone.

Photographic studio near Wolverhampton. And can you hang on till the job's

finished? We need it for the passport.

It shouldn't take too long.

Yeah, but I mean, I'm... Just charge us waiting time.

One more pick -up and then we are there.

It's about time.

I just hope I'm doing the right thing.

It's perfect. A nice respectable group of hoteliers. What could be better?

Nobody's going to give you a second glance.

I'm not so sure.

Trust me, Leonard.

Trust me.

What are you doing here?

There is no piece here to deliver.

Oh, no.

I've come to apologize.

Huh? See?

I just didn't realize what I was getting into.

And you come to say that?

Yeah.

Okay. Apologies accepted.

Shake.

Shake. And you still want us to do your deliveries?

Of course.

Sit down.

Have a coffee, please.

Some

photographic

studio.

Yeah? You, um, Snowy?

That's right.

This is for you.

Oh, thanks.

They asked me to wait.

What for?

I don't know.

You'd better come in.

I'll let you know as soon as they're ready, Mrs Gilbert.

Bye, Wayne.

Wait in here if you want. You can browse through my portfolio.

Would you like to come through, Mrs Milwaukee -Jones?

I'll be with you in a moment.

So.

You decided to come back.

Well, that's right.

Well, it's all been straightened out. It was just a misunderstanding.

Giovanni's forgiven me.

What's he talking about?

Look, I've apologised, and that's that, so you can put your spray cans away.

So you're still going to go and join the deliveries, then? Of course.

Why, I apologise.

It'll be another ten minutes. That's all.

Is your name really Snowden?

Of course it is. Why do you think they call me Snowy?

Well, that or them mums. Don't they get a bit disappointed?

No. Why should they?

Well, you know, thinking you're the real one, you know.

David Snowden.

Most of them don't know what he looks like.

Ten minutes.

Is that for Mr. Franklin?

Yeah. Well, I'd appreciate it next time, mate, if you'd deliver it straight to

reception.

Hurry. Not now, Ken. Mr. Franklin's waiting for this.

Look, this is important, mate. It's about your Mr.

Wyman. What about him? Have you seen him lately?

I saw him with you, yes.

Yeah, but don't you think there's something iffy about this business?

Oh, now, look, Ken, I really haven't got time to talk about it. He doesn't come

out of his room.

Well, he's just lost his wife. What do you expect him to do, celebrate?

You should see those photographs.

Is that for me, Mr. Crawford?

Oh, yes, Mr. Franklin. I was just bringing it up to you personally.

Handy, having a dispatch company on your doorstep.

Yes, it does its compensations.

Look, if he's so upset, why is he going to America?

He's going because it'll give him a chance to forget, and please, Ken, keep

voice down.

He's going to Las Vegas, Harry, not joining the Foreign Legion. Ken,

will you understand that not everybody conducts their life in the way you do?

What are you talking about?

Dignity, Ken, that's what I'm talking about. Dignity and sophistication.

People handle grief in different ways.

And not always by going and getting paralytic down the needle.

Just, Veena. Rocky, what are you doing? What?

My father, we must be careful.

What did you say? My father, he does not want us to meet.

Why? I thought I made it up with him. No, no, no, new husband arrives soon.

How soon?

Maybe tomorrow, if they work everything out.

Well, we've got to elope.

What is elope? You know, run away together.

Ah, I see.

Elope.

I have to go back now.

I thought we were eloping.

Only a little time.

I have to go back now.

Why?

I have brothers who will come and find us.

And promise to someone else.

They get very angry.

I'm not scared of them.

You don't know them.

Family promise is everything.

What if this bug doesn't show up?

We will show.

My father organized.

I bet he does. All the dodgy papers.

Okay. A place to hide until the heat dies down.

Ah, see.

Climate in England not so good. My father makes sure everything okay,

sunshine.

I'm sure he does.

You take me back now, please.

I'll take you back now.

Please.

What's all that about?

Apparently, Rocky took four hours to deliver a pizza.

Four hours?

That's what it sounds like.

I bet he's lost us the contract.

Nah, he said he couldn't find anybody as reliable as us.

As cheap, you mean?

Yeah, well, he doesn't want to see Rocky again.

What are you going to do about him?

Nothing at the moment. I'm all concerned about what Harry's getting himself

involved with.

Yeah, well, I think you ought to tell him, Jase, cos I can't keep my hands

together while he's off playing silly boogers. In fact, there's no point in

carrying on if he's going to be out there throwing work down the drain.

All right, all right.

You're getting a bit conscientious, aren't you?

Yeah, well, I'm saving up for a holiday, aren't I?

Oh, I see.

I just thought there might be a tiny bit of jealousy.

You what?

Yeah, OK, love, let's get it straight. I mean, all I need to do...

Actually, it's to fill in the form, supply a birth certificate and get a

of photos.

I mean, I don't need lots of different ones, do I?

Yeah, with glasses and things.

What's going on?

Yeah, I thought I was a bit stupid myself.

OK, look, thanks very much.

Got myself a new receptionist, have I?

Passport office.

Oh, no, we're not going through all that again, are we?

No, you just heard me.

You only need a couple of details to get a passport. You don't need to go to

dodgy nightclubs.

Have you never heard of things like international driving licences,

cheques? He's probably just trying to fix himself up with some car hire for

he's out there.

All right, all right.

What? What about this Wyman, the bullgrazer?

Why does he wear a wig?

Confidence.

Confidence? Yes, like he says in those ads. Get a toot and grow in confidence.

Yes, all right, all right.

Hey, hey, where are you going?

I've got to do a pick -up. Room number seven.

Oh. Ken.

What? Would you mind?

No, let him go. I spent most of the morning trying to get him off the pizza

deliveries. That wasn't a deal, was it?

I don't want Mr Wyman's important documentation being jettisoned off the

his bike.

All right, all right, I'll go.

Keep your hair on.

I'll tell you what, Harry, this job, it stinks.

Hi, Ken.

Back again.

Maxine, I've got a joke for you.

After this record finishes.

It's important, love.

Have a dance.

Come on, it's great, look.

There's no one to bump into, step on your toes or steal your handbag.

I'll crash out, mate.

All right, then, crush helmet.

Put it down.

No done?

No problem.

That's not for personal use, you know. So if you're thinking of phoning your

pizza mam, I forget it. I wasn't ringing her.

Who are you phoning then?

That's my business.

Not on that phone, it's not.

I'm about to do the most difficult thing I've ever done in my life.

What's that? Remember a phone number?

I'm about to sell my soul for love, Deb.

So where did this come from?

It was delivered.

Yeah, by who?

Another dispatch company.

Happens often, does it?

Occasionally.

You want to be a witness?

To what?

Well, to me not nicking it. I want to know what's in here.

Do what you like. I just work here.

And dance.

And dance.

Well, what is it?

Perfect. Hello?

Hello? Is that the police?

You'd better get down to the pizza palace on Northland Road, quick.

There's a riot going on.

What? What?

Yeah, of course it's serious.

There's a load of vandals smashing the place up.

No, no, that's not all. They're holding the mayor of Ramsley hostage as well.

What was the idea of that?

The idea of that was to stop Gisa Pina's proposed husband getting into the

country. He's an illegal immigrant.

Smart move, Rocky.

But what if she's an illegal immigrant?

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

I never knew you had to do so much to get a passport.

Not a seasoned traveller, then, you're Mr Wyman. Well, unfortunately, over the

past couple of years, he's had to stay in one place.

What, because of his wife?

Yes, because of his wife.

Well, don't you worry about a thing, Mr Franklin.

Isn't that the boy we sent to collect the package?

No, he's the one you gave the address to, but I insisted that Ken himself did

the actual job.

Ken? Ken Boone. Texas Rangers is his company.

He's done all your work.

All of it?

Well, I don't want any slip -ups from our guests.

He's done every single pick -up? Yes.

Ken's the best.

You might not believe it to look at him, but he's not without intelligence.

Why, is there anything wrong?

No, no, no, I...

I was just thinking how good it was of you to arrange that.

Well, like I say, you know, nothing but the best for my guests and travelling

companions. Shouldn't he have been back by now from the last job?

Well, where do you have to go?

The city centre.

Oh, yes, I would have thought so.

I'll get on to Debbie, see if we can find out what's keeping him.

No rush.

I think I'd better hang on, though, until he does get back, just in case

been a problem.

Well, you won't be needing a cab, then?

No, not just for the moment. I'll go and tell Mr Wyman what's happening.

Sorry, mate, shan't need you after all.

OK by me.

That'll cost you a fiver, please.

What?

Well, you don't think I came over here just to find the place, do you?

now. Oh, Rocky, I can know a lot. No, it's more important than that.

I've done something really dreadful. It's to do with your freedom. I know all

about you.

Well, I know all about you.

Hey,

are you stupid or something?

Giovanni, it's not what it seems. I tell them Texas Rangers, no more hippie

riders. Send me good riders. You two slow.

The pizza is clap call.

Now you piss off, eh?

Please, Rocky.

No, not without you.

Oh, me.

What do you think you're doing?

I'm on your side.

These fellas here, they're not the ones. They come from down there, you know?

Well, well, what have we got here?

And don't tell me it's just another Italian wedding.

No, I wouldn't say there was any need to panic, Mr Franklin.

Yeah, well, these dispatch riders are often delayed.

Look, I'll come over personally.

I've got a substitute document.

It won't be quite as good as the one we were preparing, but it's better than

nothing. All right?

OK.

Maxine?

Yes, Mr Rossi?

What do you know about a dispatch rider called Boone?

Ken Boone.

Boone?

Never heard of him.

You'd better not have.

We've got to get out of this place.

Don't worry.

He may not have realised anything.

You should have checked.

How could I?

Never thought for one moment the same rider would be doing all the jobs.

He's got to be totally stupid if he doesn't think something's peculiar.

Well, let's hope he is totally stupid and put your wig on straight.

I'm not hanging around to find out.

Stop panicking.

If you hadn't panicked in the first place, we wouldn't be in this mess now.

You would have done the same thing in my position.

I most certainly would not.

You ruined the whole scheme.

What are you worrying about?

I took the rap for both of us, didn't I? I was the one inside when you were out

spending the proceeds. Well, I got you out, as promised. Two years.

It took two years.

What do you expect?

Miracles.

It takes time and planning to break people out of prison.

It wasn't easy, trying to get hold of that laundry van.

I should never have listened to you.

That's nonsense.

It was a perfect plan.

Oh, yes?

How come I got caught?

Because you panicked.

You should have bluffed your way through for a couple of days and then slipped

quietly away into obscurity.

Just like that? Yes.

They hadn't got a clue what was going on. If you hadn't been spotted going

the back stairs with a case full of money, they'd still have been trying to

it out now.

You seem to think you're the brains behind this little organisation.

Tell me what we do now.

We sit tight and wait for Rossi to arrive.

But I still haven't got a passport.

He's bringing one.

Oh, marvellous. We spent all this time and money trying to get a genuine

passport when you could have stolen one.

It's not that easy.

Oh, yes, it is. You saw where Crawford keeps his.

I could have opened that safe with my eyes shut. Oh, now, come on, Leonard,

that's not in our line.

Mortgage scams, we are the best.

But thieving is just not in our criminal vocabulary.

You'd be amazed at what I picked up in Winson Green.

They're coaching in. It's a hotel.

Yes, sir.

You clever boy.

You're not so stupid after all.

Yeah? Yeah, now we get no more trouble from them bums. No.

Mr Giovanni, your turn.

My pleasure.

Rocky, how you know they come?

I didn't. I don't know who they are.

You don't know Vito Rossi's men?

Then why you bring police?

It's a long story.

Who's Vito Rossi?

Vito Rossi, not nice man.

He had fingers in old puddings. Two months ago, he opened a pizza place down

road. Nothing but trouble.

His men smash up Papa's lovely restaurant, drive our customers away.

They're not like competition.

Always police arrive too late.

Now they catch them blue -handed, thanks to you.

Yeah, blue -handed.

You're like family now.

Uncle.

Carlo. Si.

But you're only this big when I last saw you. And ugly.

I've grown since then.

Que bella, ragazzo.

Hey, Bengo.

This is your cousin, Carlo.

He has come a long way to see you.

Hello, Josephine.

Hello, Carlo.

Piacere.

Excuse me.

Percy Whiteman?

You just missed him.

What? You mean he's dead?

That's right, at the door now.

Used to live here, man and boy, he did.

Was he, um, balding, bloke, you know, wore a wig, youngish looking?

Percy? No.

He was military.

Used to be a commissioner at the Hippodrome.

Where the hell is Rossy?

I don't know.

You seem to forget that I'm the one who spent time in prison.

I never had any chance to spend any of that money we ripped off from the

building societies.

All right.

I'll go and order a cab.

Hello,

Debbie, come in.

Yes, Ken.

Listen, Wyman, he's dead.

Does that mean I get to go to America?

No, not that Wyman. The real Wyman.

That one isn't the real one.

What do you want?

Well, never mind. Just get the police over to the coaching inn.

What should I say?

Just get them there, will you?

OK. You asked for it.

Over and out.

So how did you know about this, Ruck?

I didn't. But it was you that phoned us.

Right. Well, why?

I thought they were hiding illegal immigrants.

Didn't anyone tell you Italy's in the common market?

I'm sorry.

I didn't realise it was a pizza war.

It's not the same outlook, you see, son. Different upbringing, different set of

morals.

I'll put it down to the Mafia.

So there is a Brummie Mafia?

That's it.

We've abandoned all units to respond, Cor.

What's the problem? Manager of a hotel's gone bananas with a gun.

I'm on my way.

Which hotel is it? Some place called the Coaching Inn.

We won't be a minute.

Then you're leaving, Franklin.

Just give me the envelope, Boone. Don't do you any good, mate. I'll tumble you.

OK. Keep it. Come on, Leonard.

You don't think I'm going to let you drive off into the sunset, do you? There

no point in trying to stop us.

I don't know about that.

The old Bill might be quite interested in all this paperwork I've been

delivering to you.

And you owe Harry and me money.

I'll send you a cheque.

That's rich coming from you.

Come on, let's go and sort this out.

Leonard! Oh, Miss,

I'm sorry to trouble you. I wonder if you could get me a glass of water. I'm

feeling a little faint.

Oh, certainly, Mr. Weymouth.

Well, well, Mr. Rossi, this is a bonus.

Where's the manager?

What the bloody hell's going on here?

Well, that'll cost you five quid, please. Eh? I take it you won't be

cab again.

That's him there.

Right.

Special firearms unit standing by.

Please advise on when the ability of the hotel manager believed to be armed is

extremely dangerous.

Don't wish I was going.

No, with Harry you don't.

I wouldn't have to talk to him.

Who's going instead of Wyman?

Flogged it to this fella's wife.

For 1 ,500 quid, eh?

Well, that's what Harry'll tell you. I know it was his.

And he's crafty.

Who? Wyman, slipping out of here.

Oh, he's probably holed up in some new hotel now, waiting for his next

What are you two doing here?

Just come to say have a nice time.

Oh, right.

No crime, is it?

No.

Hey, what about these pizza deliveries?

Hop along to doing them.

Sold your bike, have you?

No. Well, a week ago, I mean, you would have jumped at it. Gone off her, have

you?

Er, I was never that keen on her.

Anyway, I told her, you know, she'd be better off with someone of a... more of

her own type of background.

I'm socially too advanced for her.

It's gone.

What?

My passport.

Some buggers make my passport.

Thank you,

Mr Crawford. Have an enjoyable journey.

Texas Rangers, there they ride again.

They ride in thunder.

They ride in rain.

It makes me wonder if they feel no pain.

They never falter. They never fail.

They hang their halter on a rusty nail.

Texas Rangers,

Texas toughest men.

The Texas Rangers, they're the right team.
