King Fox now ruled.'

You still not working, eh?

What does he know about hit songs?

Next time, you have to get this yourself,
yeah?

Yo, I'm going to come back, General.
I'm going to come back.

Let me tell you this.

'I crossed over to the other side
of Fox's business.

'I was becoming his number-one soldier.'

- D., you're late.
- Hush up, man.

'A few years pass
and the music not doing so good.

'Fox wanted into the cocaine business.

'And Mr Cheung was that business.'

- But where's your man?
- Don't worry about that, man. He will...

Speak of the devil.

- Hey!
- Forgive me.

- Come on, D.!
- Yeah, man. Me know.

Marcus is more punctual
than a Swiss time piece.

My boy, man.

Yo, me brother.

You know me face?

No, man, me no know you.

Yeah, man, me know your face.
Remember you from back in the day.

My question for you, Mr Cheung:
can you distribute my business?

- You know Clancy. Clancy Hibbert.
- Clancy?

Yes. Little small Clancy. Big Clancy now.

No, me know no Clancy. No.

So what happened then, Tappa boy?

Me know you used to work
for that pussyhole, Skeets.

You remember Jerry Dread?

So you're Jerry Dread's little brother?

And now you work for King Fox?

So you know about this, don't you?

Boy, fuck off!

You fuck!

Forget about them things!
Them things are done!

You know what? I can distribute
your white powder business.

But we have to do this thing
professionally.

- Raggz!

Rasclaat, D.!

Me tell you for a long time
Clancy Hibbert fired the shot.

You know that, me know that.

Skeets is the one who called the order.
And Skeets is dead.

And Clancy Hibbert, like the rest of them,
gone New York.

And you're still like a mad fucking dog.

And now you mash up my business
with Mr Cheung.

'This wasn't the first time
Fox tell me to forget about Clancy.

'But it might be the last.'

Redemption.

- What's that?
- That? London.

- London?
- London.

- You gonna send me to London?
- London.

Look how much things I do
for the community.

For the people.

For the peace.
For your brother Jerry.

For you,
when nobody wanted Dennis.

And this is how you choose
to pay me back.

Sure thing, boss.

And Dennis...

...this is what I want you
to take with you.

I have a bredren in London,
his name is Rico.

He's expecting you.

Handle that business for me,
when it is done, you let me know.

And when everything's cool back here,
you come home.

Dennis, I can trust you?

Yeah, man, you can trust me. Love.

'Fox was right.
I was like a mad dog.

'I wanted him to trust me again.'

'Welcome to London Gatwick Airport.

'When you have cleared Immigration,

'please make your way

Turn it round.

- Bob? Who's that?

Welcome to London, Mr Campbell.

'So me get through Customs

'with Fox's kilo of cocaine
strapped to my leg.

'All I had to do
was deliver the coke to Rico.

'Rico sent his two soldiers,
so-called top ranking.

'Beenie and Tyrone.
Two idiot boys, them.'

Give me that, quick.

Beenie, please don't get us
arrested today.

What's up?
It's always the same, isn't it, Officer?

You see a nice Beamer, must be them

Hey, Sticks, I'm sitting in the front,
so sit in the back, yeah?

'Rico controlled
East London nightlife.

'This was home
to his sound system, Red Kattz.

'And trust me, he loved
his Red Kattz sound system.

somebody else from my past was there.'

Walk past?
Oh, you're breaking my heart.

Where's Rico, then? Yeah?

Give thanks, yeah. Hey, Ryan!

Rico? This is the man that Fox sent
to take care of that piece of business.

You must be Dennis Campbell?

- The man we heard so much about.

You see me again, you're dead.
You understand?

Leave.

Hey, hey, hey, come on,

- What do you need it for?
- We're DJs.

We've got a sound clash
coming up soon.

We need a new amp,
new speaker, wires,

and we're up against Red Kattz soon.

You do all of this for Sound?

Where can I find your contact?

This afternoon.
Come to the squat by the canal.

Follow the wires.

See the shades, can I...?

No, you can bring them with you.
No scratches on them, please.

Sorry, I forgot to...
Here you are, this is yours.

Seems like a nice girl.

See you later.

- D.?
- Don't worry yourself, me gone.

Where to? To sell drugs?

- I'm sorting that out.
- How?

- Don't worry yourself.
- How?

You can stay.

But you have to flush the thing.

- Let me see you flush it.
- Me can't flush it, man. You mad?

Me already sold it on.

That bag is worth a lot of money,
you know.

- Me have a baby.
- She's not my baby too?

All your running round
with this foolishness.

Me can't have this nonsense around me.

Around Vanessa.

Package is gone tonight.

Now, you have the key?
Me need to make a quick phone call.

You don't know nobody
from here to call.

And if there is somebody,
use the phone box on the road.

- International call, me need to make one.
- From my yard? Are you mad?

A quick call.

The lock's not big enough for you, D.?

- Come now.
- And your quick is not my quick.

Check for the African man
down the market.

Almost everybody knows
his place is for international calls.

You know, Vanessa's beautiful.

We made a good baby.

Yes, Miss Beckford.

- Yo, sir.
- Alright?

- Where's the canal?
- Down the end and turn right.

Alright.

Basement.

Jesus!

You mashed up the place, huh?

So you found it, then?

Your sound system is called High Noon?

You like the name?

Yeah, man. It's alright.
Sounds righteous.

About the only thing that is.

Right now, the speakers are damp,
box is bust, pre-amp keeps blowing.

Don't worry about those things,
brother. Them things can be fixed.

- So where we going?
- Meet you at my brother's in 15 minutes.

Yeah, that's him.
If anyone can shift a kilo, he can.

Engine's brother.

Come.

Come on, come in.

Jesus!

Come now.

Come on.

These Yardies,
they are bad, bad trouble men.

Last time I heard this Rico Grimes
had a disagreement with somebody,

he took a machete and "zoop"!

He chopped this part off...
Well, you know.

I let Rico do his business in Hackney.
Rico leave Green Lanes alone.

There cannot be a connection to me,
you understand?

Me understand.

Me carried this for a man in JA.
Rico had nothing to do with it.

Right now, me the man who handles it,
and me you have to deal with.

You understand?

Enjoy!
You're not gonna find better than that.

The wicked thing.
The pretty white girl, we call that.

- I like the white girl, man.

Masood!

Yeah, boss.

- Where are you calling, Boss?
- Jamaica.

- Number four.
- Number four...

Hey, now, she said the water

And they want me now to remove

'It was only a matter of time before
Rico knew the Turks had his cocaine.

'London was already feeling small.'

Oh, man!

Oh, no, man!

No... You're joking, man.

You're joking.

A young man in his prime.

Gone. Taken.

I know you're hurting.

I know because we are hurting too.

A young death.

A senseless death.

An unnecessary death.

One that only causes more pain
to a family.

'I know that you grieve
at this difficult time.'

It's not supposed to be like this.

'No mother is supposed
to bury their child!'

Our children are supposed to bury us.

'Ask yourself a question,
all of you. Why?'

Hm? Why?

D.!

Get in here.

Me lost my way, you know.

I have get back on the righteous path.

You're talking in riddles, D.
What path?

Clancy Hibbert.

Me have to kill him.

- Sticks is dead. Jerry is dead...
- Listen to me, D.

You're not going to kill Clancy.

Killing Clancy is not gonna
solve nothing.

This thing with Clancy Hibbert,
it has to end, you hear me?

- You don't understand.
- Of course, me understand!

Jerry Dread died ten years ago, D.
You can't go on like this.

Me see Jerry.

Him talk to me.

Him see me.

Him see the real me.

You're scaring me now, D.

- A duppy, yes.

A ghost. Know why?

Cos me never give him
a good send off!

- Me never give him a good send off.
- D., what are you talking about?

Nine Night.

Me dash all the things around.

And now he's a restless spirit
running round.

You believe all them granny foolishness?
All them superstitions are nonsense!

That's why you mash up my house, D.?

Jerry loved you.

Why would he want to come back
and cause mischief?

Christian girl.

This thing not stop...

...until Clancy dead. You hear?

Until Clancy dead.

- You're Mona, right?
- Do I know you from somewhere?

- Yes.
- That's Vanessa's mummy.

We have pickney in the same nursery.

- Vanessa's your daughter?
- Yes, but...

You're D.'s baby mother?

D. who nearly killed me,
who nearly killed Clancy?

You have some raasclaat nerve
coming round here.

Go away!

Clancy Hibbert!

You know her?

Clancy, we need to talk.

Yvonne is not here, Miss Hammond.

Me no come for Yvonne.

It's you me come for.

This. Me coming here.
I want you to know it was my decision.

- Nothing to do with D.
- OK.

Mona...

Really and truly,
me just a gangster, you know?

Really and truly you are broken,
and you broke Yvonne's heart, D.

And you step into Vanessa's life,
and be gone again.

Dead or in jail?

We are parents.

What are we supposed
to tell our children

when them grow up
and don't know them father?

This killing for something that happened
in the past, this have to stop, man.

Dennis come to my yard.

Me never go to his.
Me never threatened his family.

Me don't wanna kill D., you know.

And me never wanted to kill Jerry.

You were just 13 years old
when you witnessed Jerry's death

and it never left you.

Boy, you have suffered
from the grief and trauma.

Look at yourself.

Me was just a little youth.

A little youth, and me shot a big man.
And me pay for it all my life.

I know it hurts. I know.

But you never did nothing wrong
on Nine Night.

And me know tradition.
You listen me?

You don't know what it's like
to have a dream of killing a man,

shooting a man.

Ten years me see the same thing!

You want to hold on to Jerry.

But it's time to let him go.

One man knows the truth.

It's nothing to do with me, you know.
King Fox knows that.

Rise.
Choose the right path, son.

'Don't forget the big
sound clash tonight at Rico's.

'High Noon vs Red Kattz.

- 'Gonna be big! Big, big, big!'
- Raise up the treble!

Bass, come on.
Come here, man. Come on.

Bass, bass, you hear that?
Come on, man.

Rico...

Yes, my bredren!

Come upon the boat?

Come, let me fix you a drink.

Hello?

'Hello?'

Me just come from Clancy's yard.

And Clancy told me it's King Fox

You see Clancy?

- D., Clancy said don't come tonight.

Why raasclaat should I listen
to anything Clancy have to say?

Don't go to the sound clash.

Me no feel good about it.

'I had to go.

'For Sticks.
