and then they'll kill you,

and they'll kill

your family and friends!

You're a f***ing moron.

Why? I said what you

wanted me to, didn't I?

Because, moron, the reason

I got you to talk in the first place

was because I didn't want

anyone to know

it was me who

was keeping her hostage!

Now, that plan falls to sh*t

if you start using my name!

- Did I use your name?

- You f***ing did.

Sorry. It's hard to concentrate when

you're having your life threatened!

It was the first f***ing thing you said!

You're never satisfied, are you?

You turn up out of the blue,

begging for my help

in something completely illegal.

You're not doing this out of charity,

you self-righteous f***!

I want that house,

and I want you out of it!

I will take Mum's house,

and I will make you f***ing eat it!

What the hell's going on?

David, it's dark.

F***ing relax.

The meter's run out.

I've only just put money in.

This is ridiculous.

What kind of a place still has a meter?

Right.

Let's see how long this lasts.

In you go, Andrew.

Seems like some idiots

have made the mistake

of kidnapping your stepsister.

Son... I've got a job for you.

He's leaving now.

Hello.

David.

Yes. I'm very near.

Yes, I've got the bag next to me.

Hang on.

Look, David, I think this phone's

gonna die on me any second.

Oh, no.

I am f***ing rich!

I didn't know you had a brother.

Nobody does.

That's why I used him.

- Hello.

- Hello.

I brought these to celebrate.

Peter, brother dearest, this is it.

I earn 50,000 pounds,

and Mum's house is all yours.

God, you made it work!

You bloody did it!

We did it.

50,000 pounds. I'll be free.

I'll never have to live

in East Sheen again.

I'll have my own independence.

What's it look like?

I don't know.

I didn't look inside.

What?

I didn't check it.

No!

Maybe that f*** face

look in the bag.

Probably should have checked it.

Yes, you f***ing should.

What does this mean, David?

It means that the money

isn't in the f***ing bag,

is it, Andrew?

It means that your dad

probably has a good f***ing idea

that you are involved.

Sorry. What shall we do?

Were you followed?

By a car?

I don't think so.

This changes everything.

I still want the house.

That's the deal.

That happens when I get the money.

That's the deal.

I knew it, backstabber!

The minute you asked me

to get involved,

I should have handcuffed

myself to the house!

I said when I get the money

you could have

my half of the house.

I never mentioned a bag of tissues!

This Arnie knows.

He could have thugs at my house!

He doesn't even care,

he doesn't even know.

He doesn't even know

who the f*** you are!

The only person he knows
