Essex Boys Page #2

Oh, my God, that's Jason Locke,

isn't it ?

He's just come out.

did she ?

It's a simple question,

and I want an answer.

[ Exhales ]

Why'd you have to ask me ?

It's insulting.

No is the answer.

Absolutely not. No.

did you see her

spending time with anyone ?

Come on, Jase.

I just told you.

That I know of,

she didn't mess around.

What do you mean,

"that you know of" ?

Hey, Billy Whizz,

come over here.

Stay there.

How you doing, Billy ?

- Not too bad, Mr. Chase.

- Call me, Peter.

- All right ?

- Are you Jason ?

Yeah.

What you gonna do when you've finished

with Jason, go back to cabbing ?

Er, yeah. I mean, I thought

I might do the knowledge.

- You know what I mean, do it properly.

- That's a hard game, that.

All them f***in' tests. Sloggin'

about onmopeds. Goodluck to you, boy.

Well, you've gotta

do something, ain't ya ?

I don't like to see anybody

work when they don't have to.

And you're

a bright bloke, Billy.

We've been very impressed

with you. Very impressed.

We'd like to make you

an offer.

How about when you finish driving Jason

around, you don't go back to cabbing ?

How about you stay

driving for us ?

- What, you mean--

- I mean, you work full-time for us.

What's the matter, Billy ?

You saw a few things last night,

Billy, but, er, well--

in my book--

makes you one of the boys.

Yeah, but you know I'd never

say nothing about last night, don't ya ?

Oh, yeah. I know that, Billy.

I know I can trust you.

It was either that, Billy,

or we stick a knife in ya.

Bing.

[ Laughs ]

did you speak to Peter

about the business ?

Pete's me mate.

Yeah.

You tell him you want to

be his partner, not his mate.

He'll sort me out,

all right.

Look. I know how theywork.

I've been watching them.

There's too many people

in the chain.

What f***ing chain ?

What are you on about ?

-Jason !

- [ Chuckles ]

Anyway...

he's given me

some spending money.

It's in me pocket.

It's five grand.

A thousand a year--

that's all you're worth to him.

That's just for starters.

Anyway, what was I supposed to do,

grass them up like Chippy ?

Oh, no, he knew you wouldn't

do that. You were a sure thing.

Yeah ?And what about you ?

You're asure thing.

Yeah, I'm a sure thing.

Yeah ? Well, you waited

for me, did ya ?

All that time for five years,

did ya ?

didn't let anyone inside your knickers

while I was away ?

What's brought this on ?

Wh-Why didn't you

just say no ?

Why did you have to f*** about

being clever ?

Why didn't you just say no ?

Because I was at it

all the time.

I had so much cock I started

a cock factory-- big, fat, small, short.

- Anyone bought me a drink,

I f***ed them in our bed.

- Shut up !

- Shut up !

-Just for the price ofa drink !

- Shut up ! Shut your f***ing mouth !

- [ Screaming ]

Shut up !

F***ing shut up !

[ Crying ]

Why do you have to ask me ?

Because I'm a jealous f***ing bastard,

and I don't trust you.

[Sobbing]

I'm sorry.

If I was gonna mess about,

I'd have done it a long time ago.

Yeah, I know.

[Sobbing]

Jason.

I waited for you

because I believe in you.

I don't ever want handouts

from them again. We can't

go back to how it was before.

[ Softly]

You get in that bedroom.

You get in that bedroom.

[Billy Narrating]

I get a call from Mr. D.

I mean, strictly speaking,

I'm still working for him.

He's asked me to pick up Henry

and drive him to this place.

I've never been there before,

some farm.

I just thought probably not a good idea

to tell Jason and the others...

about where I was going

that night.

[ Gate Clangs Shut ]

[Billy Narrating]

Old Henry Hobbs never said much.

- And when he did,

hes till never said much.

- [ Man On Phone, Indistinct ]

Switch.

[Billy Narrating]

The pilotis Mr. D.

Wow.

Dropped it down sweet as you like,

just like he said he could.

This is f***ing fantastic.

- Can touch down and be in the air

again in less than 30 seconds.

- Right.

The other chap is Peter Chase's

big rival on the club scene,

the infamous Perry Elley.

You just keep yourself wrapped in cotton

wool for awhile and we're home and dry.

[Billy Narrating] Mr. D. and Perry

had been hatching this one for months.

This was the final

dress rehearsal.

Boys, this is gonna work.

[Billy Narrating]

So, John Dyke-- Mr. D. --

he was the one

who got me into this.

I was doing me cabbing,

and I picked him up one day.

We had a little chat and got talking,

and he asked for me again.

I used to deliver things for him,

packages, and drive a few people about.

But I didn't ask any questions.

I think he liked that.

[Bird Squawking]

What do you make of Jason ?

I wouldn't like to get on the wrong

side of him. He's an 18-carat nutter.

- He's kept you busy.

- Yeah.

Actually, um, him and his pals

have asked me to do a bit

of driving about for 'em.

Well, full-time.

How do you feel about that ?

I don't know.

Thought, "Why not ?"

I mean, they're all right.

They look after me.

- I wouldn't mind seeing

where it'd take me.

- [ Sighs ]

I can still do a bit of driving for you.

That's no ta problem, is it ?

Well, good luck to you, Billy.

do you think

it's a bad idea ?

It's not for me to say.

[ Indistinct ]

[Billy Narrating]

Now it's starting to get complicated.

Straightaway, Peter Chase asked me

to do a little job for him.

I drive 'em to this burger bar,

and they tell me to wait.

-[Sirens Wailing]

-[Man] Police, stop !

Armed police !

Sit.

I just lost

[Door Unlocks, Opens]

How'd it go ?

A total disaster.

Couriers got arrested.

We lost thegear.

Pete lost his money.

Couldn't have gone

much better really, could it ?

[ Both Laughing ]

- Oh ! Oh, God !

- Eh ?

- Are you gonna see him then, babe ?

- Yeah.

Oh !

Now he owes you, you know that.

Now's the time to call in the debt.

Yeah, I know.

What was her name again,

that blond one at the club ?

- Suzy.

- Yeah.

She had a beautiful

little arse.

You get her number

for me, yeah ?

Either her arse or your arse,

Billy Whizz. [ Laughs ]

Welcome back, Jason.

You didn't tell me

you were rich, John.

[ Laughs ]

I'm not rich.

Everybody's suddenly rich

while I'm inside.

It's a nice place, John.

Could easily get a swimming pool

in this garden. Yeah.

Nice pool with a cover on it.

Gym upstairs.

I could handle that.

I leave the garden to Henry.

That's his domain.

- Cheers.

- Cheers, John.

I'm very grateful for what

you did for me inside, Jason.

[ Chuckles ]

That's all right.

I was wondering whether

I could repay the favor.

Is there anything

I can do for you ?

Well, if you're asking,

John, maybe there is.

I've got some friends who need

some gear brought into the country.

- Gear ?

- Naughty gear, John.

All right, Henry ?

How's it going ?

Been having a lot of trouble

with drainage.

Clay soil round here.

Water lies on the surface.

Heavy rain drowns

everything off.

Yeah. Gutting when

that happens, isn't it ?

All right, come on.

Come on.

The truth is I work just for
