and I'll break your f***ing fingers!

Like that.

Fine. I now understand.

Any more sh*t from you,

and I'll break your bloody fingers!

Yeah, that was...

that was better.

Yeah, finally.

Thank you. Anything else?

Yeah, yeah...

we have to let her speak to her dad,

and then you're gonna

take the phone off her

and tell him we want the money.

- A hundred thousand?

- Yep.

- I remember that bit.

- I thought you might.

Now, this bit's very specific,

so I want you to read

this bit of paper to her.

Okay.

No, no, no, no. Read it now,

once, so that you know it.

- Got it?

- Badly written.

- Without commenting on it.

- Of course.

Okay, I've read it.

Let's make some tea.

You f***ing bastards!

Get my hands free,

and I'll cut and kill you!

Listen, if we have to go through this

every time I want to speak to you,

then David here will have to use

his knife to teach you a lesson.

So will you be quiet now?

I want to pour this

into your mouth for you.

There's no sugar in this.

Oh, sorry.

I broke your nose, didn't I?

What... what do you mean?

I mean, p*ssy,

that I broke your f***ing nose

with me hands

tied behind me back,

so what does that make you

apart from a little p*ssy?

You didn't break it.

I think I f***ing did.

Now, look, you are our hostage.

If you don't give us a hard time,

you will be fine and looked after.

However, if you cross us,

I will break your fingers.

I'm gonna be speaking to your father,

so will you please be quiet?

Can I speak to Arnie, please?

This is you, okay.

No, it doesn't matter who I am.

Yes, I'm with her...

No, you can speak to her

in a second.

No, the amount is 100,000!

We would like you to put the money

in a bag and give it to your son.

He is to drive alone

to Fleet services on the M3

and wait next to the men's toilets.

Make sure you

don't send no one else.

Terrible double negative.

Doesn't make sense.

If anything goes wrong

or someone is with him,

your stepdaughter is a dead girl.

You've got two hours.

Yeah, you can, yeah.

Yeah, I'm all right.

From the house.

No, they seem like

a bunch of f***ing morons.

One of them's called David.

And they're a pair of hopeless c*nts...

Right, you bastard,

we will hurt her if you

don't give us what you want!

What we want!

Big mistake.

No one has ever hit me

in the whole of my f***ing life.

You don't know

who my father is, do you?

Do you know what he'll do

to you and David here

when he finds out who you are?

Every member

of your queer-boy family

will be in wheelchairs

for the rest of their f***ing lives

because they'll have no knees left

because me dad

will cut them out with an axe!

Then they'll get you,
