What's the matter, Billy ?

You saw a few things last night,

Billy, but, er, well--

in my book--

makes you one of the boys.

Yeah, but you know I'd never

say nothing about last night, don't ya ?

Oh, yeah. I know that, Billy.

I know I can trust you.

It was either that, Billy,

or we stick a knife in ya.

Bing.

[ Laughs ]

did you speak to Peter

about the business ?

Pete's me mate.

Yeah.

You tell him you want to

be his partner, not his mate.

He'll sort me out,

all right.

Look. I know how theywork.

I've been watching them.

There's too many people

in the chain.

What f***ing chain ?

What are you on about ?

-Jason !

- [ Chuckles ]

Anyway...

he's given me

some spending money.

It's in me pocket.

It's five grand.

A thousand a year--

that's all you're worth to him.

That's just for starters.

Anyway, what was I supposed to do,

grass them up like Chippy ?

Oh, no, he knew you wouldn't

do that. You were a sure thing.

Yeah ?And what about you ?

You're asure thing.

Yeah, I'm a sure thing.

Yeah ? Well, you waited

for me, did ya ?

All that time for five years,

did ya ?

didn't let anyone inside your knickers

while I was away ?

What's brought this on ?

Wh-Why didn't you

just say no ?

Why did you have to f*** about

being clever ?

Why didn't you just say no ?

Because I was at it

all the time.

I had so much cock I started

a cock factory-- big, fat, small, short.

- Anyone bought me a drink,

I f***ed them in our bed.

- Shut up !

- Shut up !

-Just for the price ofa drink !

- Shut up ! Shut your f***ing mouth !

- [ Screaming ]

Shut up !

F***ing shut up !

[ Crying ]

Why do you have to ask me ?

Because I'm a jealous f***ing bastard,

and I don't trust you.

[Sobbing]

I'm sorry.

If I was gonna mess about,

I'd have done it a long time ago.

Yeah, I know.

[Sobbing]

Jason.

I waited for you

because I believe in you.

I don't ever want handouts

from them again. We can't

go back to how it was before.

[ Softly]

You get in that bedroom.

You get in that bedroom.

[Billy Narrating]

I get a call from Mr. D.

I mean, strictly speaking,

I'm still working for him.

He's asked me to pick up Henry

and drive him to this place.

I've never been there before,

some farm.

I just thought probably not a good idea

to tell Jason and the others...

about where I was going

that night.

[ Gate Clangs Shut ]

[Billy Narrating]

Old Henry Hobbs never said much.

- And when he did,

hes till never said much.

- [ Man On Phone, Indistinct ]

[Billy Narrating]

The pilotis Mr. D.

Wow.

Dropped it down sweet as you like,
