No, mate. it's a, you know,

it's an expression.

How do you want to do this -

just stab it?

We've got to catch it first,

then we, ah, cut her,

hang her on the hook,

catch the blood in the tub.

Ah, for sausages!

Blood sausages.

Yeah!

Shane's birthday soon.

Yeah.

They're his favourite.

F***ing hoovers them, mate!

You're an artist, mate.

You're like f***in' Salvador Dali.

I can walk myself.

Don't touch me! What are you?

A-ha!

Piss off!

Morning.

My name's Jane Moore. And you are?

it's Shane, is that right?

My friends call me "Muscles.

Im sure they do.

Ill call you Shane.

Do you know why you're here, Shane?

it says something in your file

about an anger problem.

Ive been on remand for two years,

more than two,

and I was supposed to be out

last week.

THAT is my problem.

You're innocent -

is that what you're saying?

You heard me.

Yeah, I did.

Im just not quite sure

I understand you.

Well, bloody listen, then!

You're raising your voice, Shane.

Am I?

People usually raise their voices

when they're angry.

Im not angry.

How DO you feel?

Very pissed off.

And the difference is?

Have you always felt "pissed off?

Maybe I have. Who gives a sh*t?

You've got two brothers -

older brothers?

Yeah.

Dale is the smart one,

Mal is the good one

and Im the f***-up.

What about your parents?

Dad was...IS a butcher.

Mum is...

Mum is Mum, you know.

My mum. Mummy.

Do you think she loved you,

your mum?

Can you tell me

what's funny about that?

There's nothing funny about that.

Why are you laughing?

You're not married?

No.

No.

Are you, Jane?

I ask the questions here.

Why?

Because we're not here

to talk about me.

You should be married.

You're very beautiful.

I hope they're paying you overtime.

Nice of you to show up.

Did you get things sorted out?

Not exactly.

There's been a bit of a f***-up.

That's interesting because Ive been

thinking about changing lawyers.

Well, it's not down to me, mate, no.

No, the driver picked you

out of the book, first go.

Then there's the bad news.

What's the bad news?

They lifted your prints

from the truck.

Bullshit.

You were driving, weren't you?

I was also wearing gloves.

Your gloves must've come off

for a sec.

Get f***ed.

All is I know is

they took your full left set,

off the dash, just by the wheel.

Are you my lawyer or someone elses?

Ive sorted out the Governor.

it cost a few bob, I tell you.

But our big worry now

is Serious Crimes.

Why's that? Don't they drink?

Those choirboys know

O'Riordan pulls the odd rort,

and they're dead keen

to nail one on him - this one.

But they're not going to nail

this one on him, are they, mate?

No, mate. They are not.
