I don't want it.

I've got it engraved for you.

Take a look at least.

Why did you tell me those lies'?

You must have known I'd find out.

That's what I just don't f***ing get.

Is that why you wanted me

in Vegas instead, eh?

No, I wanted you in Vegas

cos you're my sister.

Bollocks.

OK. OK, cards-on-the-table time, eh?

I wanted what you had with Mikey.

What Mikey had with you, alright?

Why can't I play happy families an' all?

I could've not told you about Sylvia,

but I give you the clues.

What, so I could find out

what a lying bastard you are?

Yeah, that's about right.

Take the bracelet, eh?

Take it.

It's just the start.

The past is the past. Leave it there.

Wrongs on both sides, you know,

I agree but...

we can make this work, Lil,

both of us. All of us.

You have no f***ing idea, do you'?

No.

No, I guess I don't.

- Mikey. What you doing here?

- I'll be reasonable.

What?

I've been thinking it over. OK'?

Alright.

Twenty grand, you said.

Well, just under. There was,

like, legal fees and stuff.

So where the f*** is it?

Well I can... I could give you

a cheque for my half.

What's this "half' shite, Lil?

I'm here for my money."

Where's my f***ing money?

Well, I've got half of it in trust

for you and then Barry's got the rest.

Barry's got the rest. Trust.

F***ing trust.

I'm being really f***ing reasonable.

Mikey, are you alright?

Are you in trouble'?

- Do you owe someone money or summat?

- Extremely f***ing reasonable.

But there are limits.

D'you know what I'm saying?

Why are you being an arsehole?

You know this isn't who you are.

I wanted to help you, for f***'s sake.

- And what, I'm being an arsehole?

- I didn't say that.

Oh, so you brought me here

to tell me I'm a f***ing arsehole?

You invited yourself.

I was gonna text you.

You're f***ing lying! You brought me

here to tell me I'm an arsehole!

You're f***ing off with my money!

I'm in the nick of f***ing time,

by the looks of things.

You want f***ing arsehole,

I'll show you f***ing arsehole.

Arsehole!

I'll show you f***ing arsehole!

- How's that for arsehole?

- F***ing stop it!

Stop it! Stop it!

No!

You are really Mikey, aren't you'?

I'm gonna go. It's good to know

where I f***ing stand.

Mikey, that's bullshit!

Mikey!

I'm sorry, Mel.

Just let me know

where I can buy everything

and I'm gonna replace the lot,

I promise.

You gave that f***ing psychopath

my address?

I'll move out. I'm just gonna

get everything like it was.

Lily.

Lily, Lily, Lily. OK, OK, come on.

It's alright.

Lightness. Like a wave.

But it's stuck.

It's stuck in my throat.

I'm cleaning my brain out.

Turning the lights up full.

The bright sparks always said

that a big fit could kill me.

I want to flare,

to blister,

to blind.

Electricity flowing through me.

I want to shed my skin

and fly around the club

all green and blue and white lights.

And my brothers, flying with me.

Lily! Lily, Lily!

No, stop! Stop!

Lily!

Erm, try not to rub your arms.

They're full of stinging water.

We had to do some tests

when you came in.

We found no trace of medication

in your system.

What happened?

Did you lose your tablets again?

There's green lights out at sea.

Did you experience hallucinations?

Bloody hope that's what they were.

We've started you properly

on the new drug

and it really has proved very effective.

Death's white, you know. Not black.

You just keep resting, yes?

Oh, and, erm, Lily...

Why aren't you wearing

your identity tag?

Cos I'm not a f***ing dog.

OK.

Mikey's share.

As promised.

Little Lily Jane.

Tall as a crane.

Yeah.

You weren't here

last time I looked, or were you?

I called him.

I'm sorry.

I just had to see what'd happen,

I think.

I'm not gonna die again. I done that.

Sorry for how I was at the flat.

It's Mel you wanna apologise to.

Well, you tell her I'm sorry.

Yeah.

You were wrong about Barry.

And that's from me.

You know, all I want

is for you to be free. That's all.

I don't deserve it.

The more I've loved something

in me life, the more I've broken it.

You were the one person

I had to stay away from the most.

You do believe me, don't you?

I'm not chasing after you again.

You've got my number.

If I change it, you'll know.

If you want me in your life,

you find me.

I love you, Mikey.

I love you, Lil.

Oh, where I come from

There ain't nobody

Nobody quite like you

Who, blessed my soul,

is cold on Sunday

And always evades the truth

Whose lingo comes from

God knows where

And he surely knows more than I

Who also knows how mocked I am

When you call me your kuschty rye

And I say hey, hey, honey

I hold you way up too high for me

Whoa, now come on, baby

I put you way up too high for me

Hey, hey, honey

I hold you way up too high for me

Whoa, now come on, baby

I put you way up too high for me

Whoa, sugar

I hold you way up too high for me
