Sexy Beast Page #5

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.

Oh, yeah?

- Dirty cow.

- Yeah.

Aitch knows f***-all about it.

What's she doing with him,

lanky hunk of piss, f***ing pillock.

He loves her, Don.

I'm tempted to tell him.

She tried to stick her finger

up my bum.

I almost hit the roof.

What d'you make

of a woman who'd do that?

Listen, don't say nothin',

Gal, but I...

- I quite liked her.

- Did ya?

Mmm.

How is she, all right?

- What's that, Don?

- You heard.

No, I didn't, Don. Sorry.

Yeah? Well, I'm not repeating it.

How far's the sea?

Talk to me, Gal.

I'm here for you.

I'm a good listener.

What can I say? I've said it all.

- I'm retired.

- Shut up!

C*nt.

You louse. You got some

f***in' neck. Retired?

F*** off, you're revolting.

Your f***in' suntan,

you're like leather.

Like a leather man.

You could make a f***in' suitcase.

You look like a

fat crocodile, fat bastard.

You look like f***in' Idi Amin.

State of you.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Who d'you think you are?

King of the castle? Cock of the walk?

Oof!

You think this is

the Wheel of Fortune?

You make your dough and f*** off?

Thanks, Don. See you, Don

Off to Spain, Don. F*** off, Don.

Lie in your pool laughing at me,

d'you think I'll have that?

You think I'll have that, ya ponce?

All right, I'll make it easy.

God, you're f***ing trying.

Are you gonna do the job?

It's not a

difficult question. Yes or no?

- Don...

- Say it.

No.

Yes. F*** off, wanker,

you're doin' it.

You know what I've noticed, Gal?

What stands out?

You haven't asked about anybody.

Everyone asks after you

"How's Gal? Heard from him?"

"No, not for a while."

"Is he all right?"

Leaves me wondering,

"Have I upset him?"

"Must have, I'll ask him."

Have I upset you?

- Course not.

- Meaning?

Well, you haven't.

You're British,

not a f***ing Spaniard.

Don't kid yourself...

What's that?

It's a goat.

They're a f***ing nuisance.

What's it lookin' at me for?

God, the steak was enormous!

Size of it. Couldn't finish it.

And he were nice, weren't he?

The waiter.

Oh, yeah. Very attentive.

He liked you, Deedee, didn't he, Dee?

- Liked you.

- He's got good taste.

Handsome, weren't he?

Bloody Adonis.

Wasn't expensive...

You sound nice on the phone, Jack.

Nice telephone voice.

Sound like you work in an office.

- You ever worked in an office?

- No.

No?

Nice telephone voice.

I've worked in an office.

I was 17.

Does that surprise you?

What, that you were 17?

You got very nice eyes, Deedee.

Never noticed them before.

They real?

I'll get us all a drink, eh?

I'll give you a hand.

- He's staying the night.

- Have you told him?

Have you told him?!

- Yeah.

- And?

It's not that simple.
