Your son wants to distribute cocaine, he

should know it comes with risk and reward.

Same applies to me. Remember?

I remember we didn't

have this problem.

We've had a problem with

the access holder.

The codes are in Scotland

Yard's mainframe.

I want the source

recordings in exchange.

MARK:

Yeah?

Great. Great.

PARKER:

PARKER:

Files?

You stay where you are.

Cutter.

Sands.

[PLUGS IN PENDRIVE]

[BEEPS]

We're good.

Get in the car.

Access codes?

[CAR DOOR CLOSES]

This one's to run smoothly,

Corso.

[MOBILE VIBRATING]

CUTTER:

We have the access codes.

JOSEPH:
Give us a minute, George.

Okay?

[JOSEPH SIGHS]

What is wrong with you?

Hmm?

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

I thought you would've learned your

lesson after the Dover incident.

Wasn't easy to get you a

suspended sentence.

I know.

They're never gonna let you

be the merchant of this city.

I'll be fine.

It's too late.

They all know your problems.

Sober or not, you'd be seen

as a weak merchant.

I'd always keep you close.

[SIGHS]

I lost your mother.

- [SNIFFLES]

- I don't wanna lose you.

Okay?

Come the weekend,

I'm retired.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[UNZIPS BAG]

RILEY:

What the f*** just happened?

It's 50 million we just stole.

We got lucky.

There's no such thing as luck.

Fool's thinking.

Mmm.

Three cushions,

bit of right-hand side.

Do you mind? There's money on this.

Let him play his own game.

Liberty.

How's Sands?

You still his eyes and ears

of the world?

I've known that man since I was 14

years old. I'll always have his back.

NELSON:

And your Portugal project?

- Coming on.

- Must be getting close.

Our line of work doesn't pay as well,

does it?

- Who you kidding?

- Who's kidding who?

Is that what you tell Sands?

NELSON:

Relax.

I heard about the Turks.

It's nothing.

NELSON:

Well, that's not what I heard.

I mean, there are people that you

f*** with, people you don't.

It'll be all right.

ROBERTS:
Just giving you a little heads up.

- Don't need it.

Gentlemen, good doing

business with you.

[C*CKS sun]

- My retirement?

- With no pension.

- Where's Cutter?

- He didn't make it.

- Has our commission been confirmed?

- Yeah.

- How much?

- 10%.

[INHALES]

How much we giving Dixon?

PARKER:

Haven't decided.

That's not a good look.

46 million.

[SCOFFS]

Changed their policy three days ago.

Corso set us up.

PARKER:
All right, Sands.

What do you think?

Tell them how it is.

Tell who?

Attorney General and

Police Commissioner.

They're in the loop?

You need to step up your game.

I'm not sure he knows

what game he's playing.

[CAR DOOR CLOSES]

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

Listen. This ain't me.

- What ain't?

- The snooker club.

- Stop running before you can walk.

- I know what I saw.

Yeah?

Nelson and Roberts are narc. Check for

yourself. Undercover last seven years.

And what about the bagman?

- What about him?

- Never checked in.

No record of him at Wandsworth Prison.

Nothing.

[BANGING ON DOOR]

- [DOOR OPENS]

- [DOOR CLOSES]

[GROANS]

[GROANS]

- Gentlemen.

ATTORNEY GENERAL: Take a seat, Parker.

[SIGHS]

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

How could you be so stupid?

You should have consulted us.

Well, I didn't believe

it was necessary.

I rather think 46 million

makes it necessary.

We agreed a five mil limit,

like before.

How do you mean "before"?

Fairfax case.

ATTORNEY GENERAL: What about it?

- We employed the same tactics.

Who's the bait?

Joseph Corso.

Wasn't Corso the bait in the

Fairfax case?

Yeah.

Jesus!

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

ATTORNEY GENERAL:

We need a result, Parker.

Recover the money,

you can have your usual commission.

How long can you hold

back the fire?

Twenty-four hours?

[GROANING]

Can you press this?

[GROANS]

- Harder.

- [GROANS]

[GROANING]

F***!

[INHALES]

DIXON:
Come on, Sands, open your eyes.

Why tell us the bagman's in prison?

[BEEPING]

[SIGHS]

You wanna stop talking.

He's a criminal with a badge.

No more, no less.

- Watch your mouth.

- Why?

Because I'll make sure you never

make detective, that's why!

F*** making detective.

Okay. Suit yourself.

[SIGHS]

Robert Razsiak.

He killed my dad.

Got off soot-free.

That's why I joined.

And you?

Do you even remember

why you joined?

ATTORNEY GENERAL: What are you

gonna do about the Turks?

It'll blow over.

And they won't care about your badge.

They'll take you out.

- It's an easy fix.

ATTORNEY GENERAL: How?

Portugal fund.

What about Sands?

He's all right.

ATTORNEY GENERAL:

Got enough?

- A bit light.

MAN:
How much?

One-fifty. It'll be all right.

Go and see Mc'Deer. Cash in a few bits.

[SIGHS]

And you can clean this up in 24 hours?

I'll stake my badge on it.

[CHUCKLES] You are.

[SIGHS]

Let's do it.

[CAR DOOR OPENS]

Twenty-four hours.

Then it's a full-scale investigation.

What about the bagman?

I'll release him tomorrow.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[MOBILE RINGING]

Yeah.

SANDS:

I think I've got a lead on Corso.

Yeah? Well, I'll come with you.

I've already left.

It shouldn't take too long.

- I'll call you in an hour or so.

- All right.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

Why did you come back?

- Adrian asked me to.

- He thought you set him up.

- Because I never explained.

- You never once visited him in prison.

I left after my brother died.

He needed help moving some ice.

He was desperate.

Asked if Adrian would take them.

I said not if they were from him.

Adrian couldn't stand my brother.

The police swooped so quickly,

I still don't know how I got away.

My brother was a mess.

His associates wanted their share

so he had to commit to another job.

Fairfax Security.

They found him a few hours later.

He'd been shot twice

in the back.

[CLATTERING]

It was Corso.

- He'd set him up.

- [GUN PARTS CLICK TOGETHER]

I lost a brother and a friend.

SANDS:

I need an address.

Curtis Carter.

How quick can you

Get it to me?

All right. Well, let us know

as soon as possible.

And let's keep Parker out the loop

on this one, yeah?

All right. Cheers.

[MOBILE RINGING]

RILEY:

I have the money.

Good.

Okay. Where do we meet?

Battersea Power Station.

Midnight tonight.

Okay.

I'll be there.

[MOBILE BEEPS]

- Where's Parker?

- Told him we had a lead on Corso.

- How long we got?

- Two, three hours max.

Got the bagman's address?

[CHUCKLES] Yeah.

You got a problem?

No.

- Let's do it.

- Let's do it.

[BANGING ON DOOR]

Police!
