London Boulevard Page #3

Synopsis: Fresh out of prison, Mitchel wants nothing to do with crime but accepts a kip from Billy, a marginal grafter, and accompanies Billy on rent collection trips. He's also old school, wanting revenge on two youths for assaulting a mendicant he's befriended. He's got a strung-out sister to protect, and he's offered a job protecting a famous actress from paparazzi. The plot lines join when Michael finds himself attracted to the actress and Billy's Mob boss, Gant, finds ways to force Michael work for him. He also warns Michael off revenge against the assailants of his friend. What are Michael's options: is there any way to avoid Gant, protect his sister, and find a path to love?

you're already f***ed.

Out of a job, anyway.

Don't ever go there again.

Oh, we'll see about that.

Your manor now, is it, eh? Eh?

Maybe it's enough for you.

How's your brother?

- What's your name?

- Harry Mitchel.

Bullshit.

You want to see

my driver's license, Lee-Lee?

F*** off.

Detective Sergeant Bailey, Mr Mitchel.

Might I have a word?

Now, we get a daily bulletin about all

ex-prisoners returning to our manor.

And I recognise your name, of course,

but, hey,

there's no address.

Now why no address

when you so clearly have one.

I'm not on parole.

- I'm a free man.

- 'Course you are.

Where's the owner?

How about a nice cup of tea?

Two sugars.

Your friend Billy Norton

is sailing close to the wind.

You'd be wise to avoid him.

And dodges like this flat.

Which, if I were to look into it...

Yeah, I got my eye on you, Mitchel.

You're in my manor.

What is it? What you want?

Consider it rent on the flat.

- I'll see myself out.

- Yeah, you will.

- F***ing c*nt.

- I heard that!

You ready to clock in?

You're sailing close to the wind, Billy.

- Eh? What?

- Policeman told me.

You spoke to a f***ing copper

about me?

The same one

who got my address from you.

Oh, Bailey? Oh, f*** Bailey.

You don't worry about him.

Right. Hope the f***ing lift's working.

We start at the top,

we work our way down, right?

When you finish this gaff, mate,

you want to be near

the front f***ing door.

I sh*t you not.

Get your mum.

Your mum, yeah?

Go on, get...

What have you got for me?

Let's have a look then.

No, you're a bit short, love.

I had a difficult week.

I had to buy a plane ticket,

my father's got cancer.

Yeah? I could give a rat's f***ing arse

about your Hindu psychodramas.

You know, I'll tell you what,

I'll tell you what,

you can double up next week.

- All right?

- Yeah.

- All right?

- Yeah. Yeah.

Hello.

I'm Anthony Trent.

This is my house.

That is, it was my house

before it became your house.

And now you want what?

Funnily enough,

I thought I might collect some things.

They made me write prescriptions

apart from everything else.

I'm a doctor. I'm being investigated.

It's a sad story, Anthony,

but given the people involved,

I think it will get sadder

if you come here again.

I reckoned it was a mistake to come.

Nice night.

F*** yourself.

How's the eating? You eating?

You know I don't like to eat.

It makes me sick.

There's only so far

I can take care of you.

Mum went down helping you.

Didn't have a life until she had cancer

because of you.

I didn't come here for a lecture.

You came for a proper feed

of meat and vegetables

and you're going to f***ing well have it.

If I cook this,
