All language subtitles for Love Hurts s02e08 Just A Bit Of Business

Shall I apologise to the press?

Or shall I tell them you were struck by
lightning?

No, I'm not.

Yes, you are, actually.

Never mind. It doesn't matter much.

Just don't call attention to yourself
when you finally arrive.

Take a seat at the back and keep your
sweet mouth shut.

You just don't care, do you?

Oh, I'm sorry, love. It's restricted
parking there. Oh, please, Mr.

Commissioner, please.

Would you park my car for me? Thank you
so much.

You're late.

I know.

Everybody's arrived.

Thank God.

Frank's on his way.

So it's already here, love. Yes, ma 'am.

It cost a fortune.

Martin's having it videoed. Oh, God.

But we've got it recorded.

Yeah.

Good morning.

Mini -carrying for six months, you learn
that A to Z isn't necessarily a

straight line.

Arthur.

Hi, boys.

Morning. Half an hour?

Sorry? No, I just wondered if it might
be possible to get through this in half

an hour.

I'm seeing Marshall Baumblatt for midday
brunch, finance meeting.

Marshall's in New York?

That's right. It's nine now. Finish this
by 9 .30. Carter Heathrow, 10 o 'clock.

Concord check -in. Take -off 10 .30 our
time. That's 5 .30 a .m. New York time.

arrive Kennedy 9 .20 their time, enter
the city by 10 .30, time for a couple of

meetings, and then brunch at the Four
Seasons.

Midnight.

Why bother to turn up, Malcolm?

No, I wanted to.

This is an important conference.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Welcome.

Ladies and gentlemen, good morning.
Thank you for coming.

My name is Tessa Piggott and we're here
to tell you about a recent occurrence in

Bulgaria. A unique project funded by the
Bound Black Foundation and involving

business opportunities in a country
where, up till now, there were two

that simply didn't exist.

Business and opportunity.

Have I missed much?

Nothing you can't make up. Already
building on this site is well advanced.

The first students have enrolled and
will be attending lectures, we hope, in

about 12 weeks.

It's just one of many foundation
projects, and there will be others to

about as they near fruition, though each
of them is outlined in your press pack.

However, Mr. Carver, Mr.

Litov, Dr. Eubenko, and Dr. Cocker and
myself will field questions on any of

activities. What about Russian oil, for
instance?

Yes, sorry, Tim.

Russian oil.

Yes, yes, I heard what you said, but I
don't know what you mean.

Really?

Well... Let me try and help you.

I've been watching the progress of
certain consignments of Russian oil,

currently on auction in international
markets, bought and sold on by

Baumblatt. Oh, yes, yes, I think... No,
no, no.

I think you must be at the wrong press
conference, Tim.

Baumblatt Incorporated and the Baumblatt
Foundation aren't the same thing, as

Mr. Litoff will explain to you later,
since he's a man with a foot in both

camps. We're just talking about Bound
Black Foundation projects here.

Sorry, yes, Mike.

I was asking about hard way backup. Is
the essential equipment for the business

schools part of the project?

Yes, definitely.

When is phase two actually going to be
put into operation?

Well, as soon as this one is finished,
which will be in about 12 weeks, so

four months.

What is the management structure for the
business schools?

It's based on an American system and
amalgamates the Schumacher principle,

is... Small is beautiful.

Now, it's weekly boarding, but in
special circumstances, pupils can be

accommodated at weekends.

Oh, no, that won't be necessary.

I'm not that busy. Well, I am busy, of
course.

It's just that I can't give Alex as much
time as I would like.

And I just feel that he'd be better off
here with you.

The work not very well organised for the
deaf, is it?

No, not very.

He does have specialist help, of course,
but not all the time.

Good morning.

Many of the children have learning
difficulties, of course, but they're

particular tuition to help overcome
individual problems.

It's more classy. Oh, no, more than
eight.

And we're especially equipped in all the
areas you'd expect.

Radio 8, comprehensive audiology
department, so on.

Tim?

Tim? What on earth?

What's going on? Tim, what was all that
about?

You're saying you don't know?

You'll be glad to hear I haven't got the
full story yet.

I will, though. About what? What's the
story, Tim? You'll read it in the paper.

You mentioned oil. Come on, Tim. Like
all oil, you've got to dig for it. In

case, not very deep.

What was that man talking about, Tim? A
good question, Tessa. We'd all like to

know. Let's have an answer. You're not
giving us the full story, Tessa. Tim

Crawford mentioned oil.

Now, it's just possible he's talking
about Brownblatt Incorporated business.

don't know.

And if it is, I'm not the person to ask,
and this isn't the place.

The Foundation is a non -profit -making
organisation.

Our work is well documented.

Read your press pack.

And we have nothing to do with oil.
Tessa, he seems to have some kind of

information about... Uh, you're the
expert on CIS resources.

Come and have a word with the bloke in
the Indian.

But Malcolm Littorff, he didn't make
himself scared.

Mr Littorff has a plane to catch. That's
all right, though. If you'll excuse me,

ladies and gentlemen, I have no more to
say because I have nothing to add to

that. Thank you very much. Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you so much.

Thank you very much for showing me
around.

You're welcome. I really am impressed
with your abilities.

I'm just not totally convinced it's the
right thing.

Well, you've really much picked him
through. Talk to Alex.

Yes, of course. Bye -bye.

I could use a ruling on this, okay?

A hint?

A sign?

What bloody oil?

What are you asking me for?

Because I can read expressions.

For example, when oil was mentioned,
Boris Gubenka's face said, what's he on

about? Yours said, oh, dear.

You'd have more luck reading palms.

And Malcolm said, help, I'm in the shit.

Ask Malcolm, then. I intend to.

Where are you going?

Erin of Mersey.

Don't worry.

I'll sort it out for you. Bye.

All right, Tessa.

Four seasons.

Vivaldi, very jolly.

A restaurant in New York.

Find the number.

But now?

Back at the office. We've got a few
hours.

Do you want to come in my car?

Yeah, I might as well.

Thanks, Mark.

What's that?

Hello, Frank. Nice to see you. Hello,
Max. Nice to see you. I brought a

for you. Have you, Frank? Isn't that
nice of you? What is it?

My pleasure, Max.

There's two tickets for this cycle. One
for you and one for the lady of your

choice. You're right.

It is nice of you.

Nice thought, nice try. Take Tessa.

Saw it months ago.

They came free. Business perk.

I could have done with some of this
concern when I was in the bloody nick.

Oh, come on, Mac.

Who was it got the truth out of her, eh?

Everybody knows. I didn't rape her.

I know.

That's the theory.

But there's another theory that says
there's no smoke without fire.

Ask some of the neighbours round here.

Imagination, Max.

You weren't guilty, were you?

You were the victim. They dropped the
case.

Maybe it's always there if you're a
bloke.

Somewhere at the back of your mind.

Maybe that's where the guilt comes from.

You're getting this out of proportion,
Max.

Here, you forgot your... tickets.

Sandra?

Well, it is, yes.

You mentioned that it's Tessa Piggott
calling from London.

OK. What's the problem?

How should I know?

Hello?

Hold on.

Mr Bamlett didn't take calls at his
table and Mr Litoff is not there.

Hang up.

Then call back.

Say it's Rupert Murdoch.

Thank you for your help.

He's up to something. They're all up to
something.

Hello?

Mr Rupert Murdoch calling for Marshall
Baumblatt. He's having lunch there,

right?

She says you can't be Mr Rupert Murdoch
because it's Rupert Murdoch he's having

lunch with.

Thank you.

Ah, damn.

Sorry,

Kelly. Am I late?

I was beginning to wonder if you'd show
up.

I was beginning to worry in case I
changed my mind, eh?

That does not worry me at all. So many
people are interested.

what I have to sell.

I have a busy schedule.

My tailor, my accountant, my wine
merchant.

Yeah, well, you knew I'd turn up,
especially as the KGB is picking up the

Please, Frank, why do you speak of the
KGB?

That was the old Russia.

In the new Russia, such men count for
nothing. They're all in retirement homes

on the Black Sea.

Yes, except the ones who were stationed
at your embassy here pretend to be

colonels in the catering corps.

Ministry of Supply.

Oh, yeah.

Sorry, excuse me. Ministry of Supply, of
course.

How the hell did you get my home number?

Please, Frank, not all of the old Russia
has been lost.

Although, that which has been lost has
also been found again.

That is why I come to you first with my
little offer.

We are trading now in a market economy.

Here is our latest catalog.

Littlewoods? Yes, that Littlewoods
doesn't carry nuclear subs.

Hello, Karen.

Hiya. Um, in good nick, is it?

Goes all right.

Only I need to cab up west tonight, you
know, if you fancy the job.

Well, I'm not really minicabbing
anymore, Karen.

I need someone who's going to turn up.

Any local firm would do it. Oh, yeah, if
you don't mind waiting the best part of

an hour.

Oh, OK, OK.

Oh.

Bandit Foundation, hello?

Tim?

Crawford?

Um... Hold on, I'll just go and see if
there's her desk.

So sorry.

Hold on, please.

Excuse me.

Sorry. Hello,

Tessa Piggott.

No, Tim, I haven't a quote for you. I
was wondering if you had a quote for me.

Well, for a start, you could tell me
what the hell you're on about.

Games.

Who told you to say that?

Malcolm Litoff.

You've almost got me believing you.

All right, if you want a meeting, why
not?

Where?

Yeah, okay, I'll be there.

I'm going to have to go now, Tessa.

Somebody's about to get ten years for
business fraud.

But don't let it worry you.

You have a nice day.

What's going on?

I don't know.

You look worried.

Worried. Angry.

Deeply suspicious.

What's in that?

Tuna salad.

Mmm, nice, thanks.

The rite of circumcision has been
enjoined upon us as a sign of our

with God, as it is written.

And God said unto Abraham, You shall
keep my covenant, you and your children

after you.

He who is eight days old shall be
circumcised.

Every male throughout your generation.

Excuse me. I won't be a moment.

May this service inspire us to bring
nearer the day when the word of the

will be fulfilled. Hi, Warburg.

Hi, Mum.

It's Alex. He's locked himself in the
toilet.

Wait, Rachel.

Wait,

Rachel. Walk before me and strive to be
learned.

I'm sure he'll come out.

I'll be home as quick as I can.

Okay? I'll be home as quick as I can.

Make it quick.

Hurry up, Mom. I need to know. Come on,
Alex.

Alex, it's all right. He just won't come
out. How do you know he's all right?

We pushed notes under the door. He's got
his cool things with him, pen and

papers. He pushed notes back to us.

She wants to send me away to school.

He found the letter from the special
school on your desk. We don't want him

go.

Damn.

Oh, damn, damn.

I know.

Malcolm, what a pity.

I hear the food at the Four Seasons is
terrific.

Tessa. Not enough time to get over there
and back to the shredder, though, eh?

Bad luck.

But just enough time to spend half the
day on the telephone to Marshall and the

other half to who?

Tessa. Corporation lawyers?

Yes, I thought so.

Talking to them about what, Malcolm?

It was best... About what?

It was best that you weren't told.

Told what?

I'm sorry, I can't tell you.

Oh, yes, you can.

Because I run this bloody foundation and
I'm damned if I'll be treated like the

tea girl.

Tim Crawford mentioned oil and dirty
dealings this morning and you

like a conjurer's bunny. Frank's gone to
earth, Marshall won't take my calls and

you're going to tell me why.

You're scared and I can see that you're
scared.

And that means something serious, so
let's have it, OK?

Forget it, Tessa, please.

How well do you know me, Malcolm?

Forget it.

We've been buying cheap Russian oil and
selling it on the Tokyo spot market,

among other places.

Keep going.

Russian oil comes from Siberia.

When the Soviet Union was... Well, when
it was the Soviet Union, it didn't

matter who got paid because no one took
a profit.

Or so the theory went.

And now?

And now the Siberian oil companies are
asking themselves why Moscow should

conduct the business and take most of
the profit.

They've got their hands in the till.

Well, their bucket's in the barrel.

If you send a tanker up there, they'll
fill it up for you. Very cut -rate

prices.

Big share out all round.

It's a bit like going to the local
service station.

You might even get a Busy Lizzy, can of
Diet Coke and the best of Genesis if you

want them nicely.

We've got three tankers up there at the
moment.

Forgetting that they're stealing it and
we're... No, you're receiving it.

How are you moving the currency?

I mean, it would have to be in cash,
wouldn't it?

Easily got at, cleverly hidden.

You bastard.

It's foundation money, isn't it?

Isn't it?

It goes in under the cover of funding
for one foundation project or another.

A bit of creative accounting.

No one asks questions about the movement
of foundation monies.

Well, not many questions.

It's not that unusual, Tessa.

You bend the rules when you can. It's
the way that business works. I mean, the

idea is not to get caught.

Too late, Buster. You have been caught.

How dare you?

How dare you use my money for your mucky
schemes?

Tim Crawford can have this. He can have
the lot. Front page, back page, every

bloody page. You think I dream this up?

Jesus Christ, Tessa, talk to Marshall.

Oh, sure. You were just obeying orders,
you creep.

You Judas.

Tessa, I could go to prison.

Could?

Could? Forget could.

Oh, and tell Marshall when you next
speak to him in about 30 seconds, I

that he is definitely going to find
himself in deep trouble.

Deep trouble.

Up to here.

No breathing space.

I just need a moment to recover and
think things through.

Then I'm going home to murder Frank.

Perhaps he didn't know.

Ho, ho, ho.

So what are you going to do?

About the whole issue, I mean.

Don't know.

Resign.

No. Well, not just yet.

It can do more damage from the inside.

Damage?

Ah.

Well... Don't ah well at me.

What they've done is criminal.

And they did it with my money and used
my foundation as a cover.

I could have been implicated.

Marshall Baumblatt's money.

You know what I mean.

Marshall Baumblatt's foundation.

Going to the loo?

Well, yes.

Yes, well, mind how you go. The door's
off its hinges.

Yes.

Oh, some other time.

I can't compete with multinational
skullduggery.

I'd love to know what you old biddies
talk about with five -porn lemons inside

you.

Wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Oh, hello, Karen.

Oh, Grace, you're never going to believe
this. I've had a terrible time.

Oh. Max, it's Karen Green here for a
paver.

Mum. Mum.

I have called five cab companies. Not
one of them has turned up. It's always

bloody same round here.

Let me try. Oh, but Max, I'm really late
already.

Please.

I'm desperate.

I'll pay you double.

Don't be daft. No need for that.

Oh, thanks, Max.

You're a prince.

Oh, give us a minute to freshen up.

Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah.

Great, thank you.

I don't think so, pal.

Large scotch, please.

Not in this booze, all right.

Malcolm called.

He was on the hysterical side of
desperate.

You knew, you bastard.

Sure.

Of course.

I brokered the deal.

Army Colonel, ex -KGB, had a cover here
at the embassy.

Now he's got a large corner in Russian
spare parts and surplus supplies.

Including Siberian oil.

Right.

You... You... God, I don't believe you
did this. You sit there and tell me.

For Christ's sake!

Now, look.

Just shut up a minute and listen.

There is a guy over here with some cheap
oil and there is a guy over there that

wants it. I introduce them to each
other. They make an arrangement.

Everybody's happy.

All right.

So a few rules get broken on the way. So
what?

It's a deal, Tessa.

That's what I am about. That's what I
do.

Anyway.

Piss in the ocean to some of the other
things Down Black gets up to.

Those companies have a larger turnover
than some countries.

They all get up to tricks.

You were in business long enough to know
that.

Don't include me in your... Look, I
didn't know they were going to use

Foundation money, all right?

When I found out, I said to Marshall it
was out of order.

Which makes everything OK.

I'm not apologising.

I'm just telling you how it is.

Malcolm.

He's in a bad way.

Good. Terrific.

He thinks he may go to prison if you go
public.

Well, there's no way Malcolm's going to
survive prison.

But there's worse. How much?

Did they divert him to oil? Not much.
About 30 million.

Not much?

No, not much.

What?

What's worth for Malcolm?

Well, he thinks that he's earned your
contempt and hatred.

Well, he's right about that. Which is
difficult for him because he's in love

with you. Well, he can't expect... Which
we both know.

It cost what it cost.

Fair enough.

I'm sorry, Max. It must have been all
the fussing to do. I've left my purse at

home on the table.

That's all right.

Pay me next time you see me.

Don't be daft. You do a job, you get
paid for it.

My boyfriend will sort you out.

Can you believe it? I've been stood up.

Well, I'll run you back home.

Oh, well, you come and eat with me. I've
already booked the table.

Leave off.

Two aperitifs, as ordered.

Wine, sir?

Thank you.

You conned me.

The lingonberry looks terrific.

I've only got about eight quid on me.

What's all right? It's my treat.

Oh, yeah?

Or Frank Carver's treat?

Who?

Frascati, all right?

So, what are you going to do?

I don't know.

Shop them.

Me too.

You're safe enough. All you did was tip
them off.

No evidence.

Anyway, I don't think I'll go to the
police.

I'll go to the press.

It's the same thing, in effect.

Look, if you ask the angel with the big
book, he'll say they were naughty.

Well, what if they were?

It's not exactly Maxwell having it away
with the pension fund, is it?

It's just a bit of sharp business.

Happens every day.

We live in different worlds, don't we,
Frank?

Yeah.

In some ways, we do.

Get off me.

Get off me. Get off me.

Get off me.

Get off me.

Get off me.

Please. I've got something to say.

I know I don't spend... Watch my lips.

I know I don't spend as much time with
you as I would like to.

All of you.

Not just Alex.

I'm a rabbi.

I'm a busy rabbi.

I'm a sorry busy rabbi.

But that's all going to change.

I'm not quite sure just yet how I'm
going to manage it, but I will.

More time together.

Much more.

Starting today.

Alex, you will get more specialist help,
but here at home, not at any school.

Right.

I've given Rachel the day off.

You're not going to school.

I've cancelled all my meetings.

So what do you want to do? Natural
history. That's boring. Let's go to

Slam. How about the seaside?

I'll focus.

Not again.

Do you know what they charge for
service? It's a scandal.

They say an army marches on its stomach.

We got this out of Afghanistan.

Excuse me.

There we are, Frank.

Russian army field kitchen.

Is that it?

Well, part of it.

How many have you got?

Actually, hundreds.

I'll take three.

For the moment.

Cash? Naturally.

Do you own this place?

It's not a KGB useful.

The lease still runs.

It's a safe house.

Safe?

It's next door to a knocking shop.

Beyond suspicion.

You'd be amazed at the pillow talk of
people of great influence and power.

Come on, come on, come on.

Hello?

Hello, yes, this is Tessa Piggott
calling for Marshall Bambad, please.

What?

I'm sorry, what?

I don't care if he's in the bloody
jacuzzi. Get him out.

What?

Christ.

I'll fetch anything.

Water, cloth, anything.

She'll do it, won't she?

Go to the press.

Well, she says she will, yeah.

Marshall's sodding bum, that'll be all
right.

I'm the wally.

Sure.

What's that?

from Marshall, admonishing me for acting
outside my remit and without his

permission or knowledge.

Price?

He hasn't paid it back, Frank.

Hasn't paid the bloody money back.

The foundation money?

Not a penny of it.

If anybody looks at those accounts... I
don't think I can manage to go to

prison, Frank.

Well, it won't go unnoticed.

Tim Crawford will see to that.

I like this.

Deep throat meetings far from prying
eyes.

That's what makes journalism fun.

Is it?

Fun?

Ah.

It's to be a plea from the bleeding
heart.

To save all those who have erred and are
now truly sorry.

Is it? That's news to me.

So you've enough evidence to print the
story?

Yeah.

There were a few things.

Where the money came from.

Who knew, who didn't.

I know all that now.

Mad of interest.

What's your influence on the band, that
fellow?

Worried about a mole.

Very le carré.

Don't worry.

The information came to me in Russian,
not English.

Jealousy is a terrible thing, especially
where profit is concerned.

People could go to prison for you.

You've thought about that.

It's a story, Tessa.

A good one.

An important one.

Potentially a scandal.

How will it look in a month?

One man in jail and today's fish and
chip paper.

You're wasting your time.

If you print the story, the Banblatt
Foundation is history.

And so are these projects.

A freezer plant outside St. Petersburg.

A catering cooperative.

$14 million invested in Russia and
Eastern Europe.

Plus support systems. Plus new projects
in hand. A radio station.

The Bulgarian project for business
studies centres.

A drugs rehab clinic.

An environmental centre.

All gone, us, Tim.

All down the drain, if you print.

Now you're wasting my time.

A cover -up.

Forget it.

You wouldn't be so high -minded if you
knew some of the people involved in

projects.

For some of them, it's a way of making
their lives over, starting to look

bright.

They're not bound, lads.

Or businessmen with large bank balances
and dubious motives.

It's not just money that's invested
here.

There are tears in my eyes and a lump in
my throat.

And it's still a cover -up.

Okay.

Let's see if you have time for this.

I hear there's an editorship going up in
your group.

Am I right?

It's no secret that you want the job
very badly.

Well, my boss has spoken to your boss.
And in case that isn't quite clear, my

proprietor has spoken to your
proprietor.

You want the job?

Bite of joy.

Malcolm, you've been sitting there all
day.

Perhaps it's time to go home, eh?

Come on, what do you think?

Where have you been?

Nothing's going to happen.

Okay.

You're off the hook.

It is as if nothing has happened.

No, it's not.

Night on the tiles, on the piss, and on
the run.

From what?

From you, actually.

And from himself.

So you saw Crawford, then?

Why the change of heart?

All the projects.

The investments.

The hard work, the people.

The foundation, that's why.

And Malcolm.

You did the right thing, you know.

Are you sure?

Absolutely.

The car's miles away.

I will try. No, that would only make
sense if you'd encourage Crawford to go

ahead.

Malcolm might resolve.

Do you think he will?

He's in the state to do anything.

I'm definitely going to resign.

You?

Why?

Well...

It doesn't do, Tess. Both of us are down
black.

Can we take the aggro home with us?

I don't want that.

Do you?

No.

You're too good at the job just to walk
away from it.

We could do a deal.

No shop talk after hours?

It wouldn't work.

I can still give you advice.

I could do a bit of freelance for you.

I just don't think we ought to be under
the same roof night and day.

Think about it.

Well, I have. That's why I've decided...
To resign, yes, but think about it

again.

It won't make any difference.

Okay. Trust me.

Heads stay, tails resign.

No, no. Sorry, tails.

You're a bastard. You cheated and
cheated.

Love hurts.

It can leave you crying.

Love hurts.

It can turn you upside down. Oh, how
love hurts.

So if it's just a game that you're
playing.

You better know that love hurts.

There's no doubt about it.

Love hurts.

But who can live without it? Oh, how
love hurts.

So you better run and hide. But
remember,

love hurts. You just.

first name.
