OK, let's go over it again.

Look, we have a chance here

to take Connor McVeigh's entire team

out of circulation, and we have to take it.

in the Belfast f***ing Telegraph.

Come on' You're overreacting.

I'm gonna call London.

I want everything on hold

until I've spoken to Buchannan.

I've already spoken to him, Mac.

- What the f*** is this all about?

- How should I know?

You give us Connor McVeigh,

I promised I'd take Mark to school.

He's fine with Ma.

Get up. Get dressed.

No, I promised Mark, Connor.

Is something wrong?

- No.

- Get dressed.

Henderson
