The Tailor of Panama
(5.00 / 1 vote)Panama.
Panama?
Best I could do, Andrew...
...in the circumstances,
given your sins.
They were baying for blood.
I argued your case.
"For his long service,
his fine brain in the balance...
...against the gambling debts...
...the blown cover and the wives."
The wives.
So, a last chance.
Panama.
Keep the head down?
Serve out my time?
Not quite, Andrew.
We do have interests:
The canal, vital artery.
There is work to be done.
But for God's sake,
be careful out there, man.
There's a nasty web
of money-laundering...
...drug trafficking and corruption.
Really?
There are only 200
resident Brits in Panama.
But you can surely ferret
out one or two...
... who can gain you access
to the corridors of power.
Look, look!
The Bridge of the Americas.
You know, ever since
the canal cut them in half...
... this bridge is now the only link...
... between North and South America.
Think about it!
The way I see it,
we all have a dream of ourselves...
...that we could be more than we are.
Well, Pendel and Braithwaite are here
to help you realize that dream...
...in the Savile Row tradition.
Let's try this one now.
Oh, yeah, I guess this is kind of...
I thought you'd like that one, sir.
Mr. Connery's choice.
As soon as I saw you I thought,
"Who does he remind me of?"
And that's it. In the build too.
Golfer's shoulders.
You've got the fluence, Harry.
I've always said it, and you have.
You're the outright best tailor
in the world. Bar none.
Steady on, Uncle Benny, steady on.
Harry, come on.
- I'm coming.
- All right.
All right, you get in first, Sarah.
Don't forget your belt.
- Sarah.
- I'm trying!
Mark.
Okay. Bye-bye.
George, George, I saw you yesterday.
All right, here you go then.
How's your old lady?
Sarah, Sarah!
Hi, Bella.
Dad, give me a quarter.
Have you learnt your poem?
Tyger, tyger, burning bright
In the forest of the night
- See you, Dad.
- Shalom.
Shalom.
Look at your hair!
Oh, what immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful cemetery
No, "symmetry." Symmetry.
I still don't know what it means.
- Did you see the news last night?
- Yes, I did.
Your people want their canal back.
Not my people, Ernesto.
They're rabid, right-wing senators.
- Do you know what they are?
- Say it.
A**holes.
You see?
Turn around.
It's only a tad, Ramon.
If you want to look good in my suit,
lose weight and grow a foot.
Come to the shop.
We can ease it a little.
Okay.
So, what are we gonna do
about the overdraft, Harry?
You tell me, Ramon.
You have to think
about selling the farm, Harry.
Sell it?
It's a gold mine, Ramon.
Angelo's turning it around. He's a
very good man, Ramon. Dedicated.
I hear you got a water problem.
Did have, Ramon, did have.
I put that right.
Now, it flows like...
Water.
Exactly, Ramon.
Maybe you shouldn't have
bought it, eh?
On your advice, Ramon. Fair's fair.
The bank wishes to see
a substantial reduction...
...on the outstanding sum
by the end of next month.
Otherwise...
...we have to call it in.
What?
The whole lot?
You are my friend. I hate
to do this, but my hands are tied.
What can I say?
What am I going to tell Louisa?
I bought it with her inheritance.
Well, you're the storyteller, Harry.
You're an angel.
Someone to see you.
Oh, yes? Who?
New customer, he say.
Hi. Name's Osnard.
I phoned.
Mr. Osnard. Harry Pendel.
Very happy to meet you, sir.
No offense, but I was hoping
to see Mr. Braithwaite.
No chance of that,
I'm sorry to say, sir.
My late partner has been dead
