I do, yeah.

Good day that was,

You was the best.

You made the most money,

About 300 quid, I think.

Do you remember

when you played football?

I do, yeah.

You was the best then

as well, weren't ya?

Who was that little lad

that kept showing his arse

whenever he got the ball?

That's Michael.

Michael Parks.

They tried to hold me hand,

didn't they, mate?

Yeah, didn't they?

They all held your hand.

I didn't.

I know you didn't.

Don't need to, do I?

# When the dust

has settled #

# Will you make it back #

# Our days were numbered #

# Our days were wrapped #

# We fall and we're lost #

# Through alien nights #

# Today's darkest cloud #

# Was yesterday's light #

# Afterlight #

Now we should check

this place out.

Make sure

no one's in there.

F***in' hell,

mate.

Here you are, mate.

Sonny, have you

got one bigger, man?

Huh?

Got something bigger?

That's the whole

point, though.

The thing is with this little

f***ing thing, these aren't...

You can't see.

You got it?

You know what I mean?

You just put it here.

Just f***ing

got it here.

And you just...

No f***ing nasty cut,

you know what I mean?

It's proper

army edition there.

We'll have

a look up here.

He's in the f***ing

army now, innit?

Huh?

He's in the

f***ing army.

Yeah.

All right in here, mate.

Sonny?

What's wrong, mate?

Here's not in here, mate.

There's nothing there.

Are you sure, man?

There?

What's going on?

Hmm.

F***ing Tuff, man.

What's he run off for?

What a fool.

Do you actually think

he's coming to town?

Yeah, I bet

he turns up in a bit.

Shouldn't have f***ing

left him, should we?

He's a f***ing lazy bastard.

He wouldn't walk

that far, now would he?

Do you want some

in there, Gage?

Just put some

in there, yeah.

Just up to the line.

You see that line.

To the line... Stop!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Yeah.

Ohh...

Okay now.

I can't me head around it.

The soldier here

is f***ing rank, man.

That's disgusting.

I could taste that.

F***ing hell. I can

taste it in me beer.

I still don't feel well

after sitting here.

I'm not f***ing going

downstairs on me own.

Got any more

pots for washing?

Here. Put that in.

Right, that's

the recyclin'.

Put them up

for tomorrow.

You may wanna keep

things like this.

Want all of this

to go in the washing?

That's a washing.

They're clean.

They're not

smelly, mate.

Oh, no.

That one stinks.

If I can only

savor this one...

You could if you want.

When your friends

were pot leavers

and you kept half

the things like that,

there could be

a corkscrew there.

What?

You drink those

from the pint.

Well, isn't it

for lager?

Ahh. For lager.

I used to do this

all the time, you know.

Not much lift

in their bollocks.

We'll turn 'em up.

...you behemoth.

Come on.

Now, if you get the plastic,

you see, the plastic's 5...

3 pence, and the glass

is 5 pence,

so if you put the 3

to the 5, you lose

f***in' money.

You gotta put the 5's

and the 3's separate.

So remember,

the glass is 5.

Have you fed

these fish?

I fed them

this morning.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Does my face

look all right?

I don't feel good, man.

Huh?

Take it off of me, man.

I don't need it.

Take it off of me.

Take it off of me.

I don't feel good.

Take it off.

I don't want it.

Hang on.

I'm done.

I'm outta here.

Sonny, what does

my face look like?

Feels like... loose.

Is it blotchy or something?

That's a bit red,

this eye.

I'd go and get that eye

checked if I were you.

Have you fed the fish?

I fed them

this morning, man.

One of 'em looks

like a shark.

Raaah!

# Sunny sunny sunny

days with you #

Help. Help me.

You're the devil.

I wish I f***ing was.

Jesus.

No.

You a devil?

Jesus.

Don't...

Don't touch me.

Do you like to party?

Get up and f***ing dance.

Get up and dance

at my party.

Get your fat up.

Look at ya!

Come on. Come on!

Have a dance.

He doesn't know.

He's just trying.

With a mind that's

f***ed up for ages.

Did you think you could

get away with it?

You f***in' did, man.

You can come with me.

Help.

Up. Sit up!

F***ing chin up.

Sit up, man.

Pay attention.

Up on your feet, you.

Whoa. Don't you know

who I am?

Can I go?

Well, you're going.

You're going.

Are you going?

No.

I'm gonna do it all

for you now.

I'm gonna take it

all away from you.

You just look at me

like that. That's it, mate.

That's it. You just stand

there and don't move.

I gotta fucki"

shut you off.

Hey.

Sit there.

There's something

I want to show you.

It's just

between me and you.

Just stay there.

Wipe your nose.

Open it.

Open it.

What is it?

Open it.

Who is he?

That's not Joe.

It's hard to believe,

isn't it?

Do you want

to give him a kiss?

No.

Say something to him.

It's your last chance.

Are you frightened?

Want me to close it?

I'm sorry, mate.

Yeah. It's hard losing

somebody close to you,

isn't it?

Do you want me

to show it to you?

Yeah...

Yeah.

What did you do that for?

He tried to run away.

Do you know

why you're alive?

You're a good man.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'll give you a deal.

You tell me

what I want to know,

and I'll let you live.

Will you?

There's one more.

Where is he?

Where he lives?

No.

F***in' hell.

That's them.

That's them in there.

Where's you?

Where are you?

I'm here.

Yeah.

You're here.

Tell me I can go.

What would you have said?

I'll help ya.

Well, then...

I've gone all straight.

That don't matter.
