Sexy Beast Page #4

Synopsis: Gal, Deedee, Aitch and Jackie, having left behind respective lives of ill-repute, bask in the sun of Spain and in the most essential brand of leisure. A hazy yarn of barbecues, beer and botched hunting expeditions make up their retirements, until a sudden and unforeseen disruption emerges from their past. Enter the childishly violent and hilariously edgy Don Logan. Through a series of side-splitting negotiations and irrevocable acts, retired crook Gal is forced to shake off the rust and accept one last mission, put forth by the menacing Logan, his ex-mentor. A heist of legendary proportion and personal implications, this job should make for one hell of an encore.

Why? Cos the place is impregnable.

The most elaborate

security system in Europe.

Well, thanks, Teddy.

Thank you for choosing us.

It's a modern fortress.

No, it's perfect for me.

I'm well impressed.

I feel very... safe.

Well, rest assured, Teddy,

we're very safe.

Very comforting to know that, Harry.

Nice doing business with you.

See you around.

Tell you what, Stan. That is

f***ing impressive, that place.

I'll say that, f***ing futuristic.

Yeah?

Doable?

I don't see why not.

See, where there's a will,

and there is a f***ing will...

There's a way.

And there is a f***in' way.

There's always a f***ing way.

It's Saturday but you're needed

in London Friday.

It's a bit sudden, innit?

No, it's very far from sudden.

It's been five months,

I've been in on it for two.

It's not sudden. Preparation,

preparation, preparation.

It's a piece of piss, a monkey

could do it, so I thought of you!

Cheers, Don.

You're at the Grosvenor,

your name's Rowntree.

If they give you a pull,

you're just here to see some friends.

Somebody'll call you,

pick you up. Probably Mike.

What's that mean?

- What?

- That stupid nodding you're doing.

Is this a f***-off, Gal?

No, course not.

- Are you saying no?

- No.

- Is that what you're saying?

- Not exactly.

- What are you saying?

- I'm just saying...

Thanks and all that,

thanks for thinking of me,

but I've got to turn

this opportunity down.

No, you've got to

turn this opportunity yes.

- I'm not match fit.

- You seem all right to me.

- Not really.

- You look fine.

- Do the job.

- What?

- Do the job.

- No, Don.

- Yes.

- No.

- Yes.

- I can't.

- Can.

- I can't.

- Don't do this.

- Do what?

- What am I doin'?!

- This.

This? This what?

- Come on, Don.

- There's a boy lookin' at us.

Go home, son. Go on.

I don't need you today.

Go on, go home.

Go home!

Who was that?

A Spanish kid who helps

around the house. Nice kid.

D'you wanna go into town for

a drink? I'll show you round?

If you like. I'm not fussed.

You're on two per cent,

maybe even three.

Depends on the usual bumflufferies.

It's not about money with us, is it?

It's the charge, the bolt, the buzz.

The sheer f***-offness, right?

## Dance to the music #

# like nobody does #

# The first time I saw you #

# I knew it was love #

# Groover... #

She's all right, Jackie, isn't she?

Yeah, she's great. Great laugh.

Big tits.

Yeah, she's a lovely girl.

# My heart is on fire #

# the night is divine #

# My only desire #

# is making you mine... ##

I've missed my plane,

I'm staying tonight, that all right?

Course.

I f***ed her.

It's none of my business.

I know, I'm just tellin' you.

Three years ago.
