Hallam Foe Page #3

You enter, you work your shift,

then you f*** off,

all on the same floor. Got that?

- Yes.

- Good. Now, beat it.

Have you seen Raymond?

He's cleaning the bins.

Do you want me to go and get him?

No, don't worry.

How are you settling in?

Very well. I'm really enjoying it.

In fact, it's brilliant.

This isn't an interview.

I know, but it's great

to be a part of this team

and to have a sense of purpose,

you know?

You get into the rhythm,

you start playing tunes in your head

to go along with it.

You can turn the radio on if you want.

Oh, I know. I like it.

It keeps me from thinking.

Do you think there might be a chance

this job could become permanent?

Yes, Hallam, if you can

maintain your enthusiasm.

I've got to run.

I can't do tomorrow, my boy's birthday.

- Maybe the day after?

- Say hi to your wife.

See you.

I want to report a murder.

Please sit.

My stepmother killed my mother.

She as good as confessed it.

How? When?

She told me last week. We had a...

...a confrontation,

but my mum died about two years ago.

The inquiry said that she committed

suicide, but as you can see here...

...they found drugs in her.

My stepmother,

who was then my dad's secretary,

put sleeping pills in her coffee

and put her out into the loch in a boat.

She had a motive. She wanted my dad.

And the house.

And have you spoken

to your father about this?

He'd do anything

to support my stepmother.

He's her lapdog.

Nice place you've got.

Anything you need,

you just call room service.

She's gonna laugh

when I tell her she's got a Peeping Tom.

You're not going to tell her.

Oh, you're in a position

to dictate terms here?

I think, by some strange coincidence,

I saw you there last night.

- So what?

- What would your wife think?

What about?

- I can keep a secret if you can.

- I don't have a secret to keep.

You know,

I was thinking about getting a tattoo,

like that nice tiger on your arm.

- I'll tell human resources you quit.

- And what about my pay?

Now f*** off. And if I ever

see you again, you'll regret it.

Gonna count? One, two, three, go!

You knocked one down.

One is pretty good, though.

Here he is now.

- Hi.

- Evening, sir.

Hallam's been telling me secrets.

All of them complimentary,

I assure you.

I'm really sorry

to invade you both like this,

but there's been an accident

with one of the chefs.

It's nothing serious,

but the rules say we need a signature

from management within 12 hours.

Thank you.

- A pleasure to meet you.

- You too.

- Bye.

- Say goodbye.

- Bye.

- Bye-bye.

Goodbye.

Hallam, that wee lassie,

Kate, from HR,

she wants to see you.

Have a seat.

We have a vacancy coming up
