Get Lucky

1

They call him Lucky.

Is he?

Depends who you ask.

Tragic circumstances

with his parents' murder.

He skipped the county.

So this guy just wants us

to grab him? No bruises?

Yeah. He's got something

special planned for Lucky.

- Can I help you, mate?

- No.

Come on, stop it!

That's it?

No kiss goodbye?

Welcome back to London.

Great to be back.

What brings you home?

That voice you've got,

does it hurt when you talk?

Whoever you think I am,

whatever you think I've done,

you're wrong.

We know who you are.

Lucky, tell us about your brother.

What's he got to do with this?

Tell us about Raphael.

We need to know if

he's trustworthy.

The most honest guy I know.

We've heard that

he's the best in the business.

That he's a tactical genius.

We've also heard that

he's incredibly handsome.

The funniest guy in the world.

The only person who could

truly throw you

a welcome home party.

I wanna kiss that man. Come here!

George!

- Good to see ya.

- How are you, sir?

How's the motor business?

Yeah, well, I've only

just finished repairing

all those cars that

you smashed up.

Well, I made a pink slip trade.

- Where's Kirby?

- You mean, is he still not in prison?

Come on.

It's not as if you were

going to get the first round.

Kirby. I'm stunned by your generosity.

Thanks, mate.

- How you been keeping?

- Out of trouble. Just.

What?

Put those on ice. I'm working.

George. Hey! How are you?

- Oh, that's the old

Shirley Bunion, isn't it?

- Shirley Bunion, isn't it?

- No.

- Yeah. We were in school together.

- I sincerely doubt it.

There you go, mate.

Welcome home present.

That's very thoughtful.

Good to see you, Kirby.

- Cheers, lads.

- Cheers.

I need to go and talk to someone.

I need to go and get more champagne.

I need to go for a piss.

- Vodka or gin?

- Vodka. Always vodka.

- You always drink alone?

- I'm actually waiting for someone.

Ah. Me, too.

You haven't seen her, have you?

She's got the most beautiful

blue eyes, blonde hair.

Beautiful smile, red dress,

drinks martinis, loves magic.

Oh!

Well, if I see her, I'll let

her know you're looking for her.

You do that.

She's a very lucky girl.

Mate. Mate, mate, mate.

A word in your ear-hole.

- Not now, mate.

- Yes, now. Come on.

I've just met a beautiful girl,

and you want a word?

Okay.

Heads, I follow her, tails, I...

It's always heads.

I gave you that coin.

Come on.

How's employment with Mr Zigic?

Ah, you know, some days you're the

pigeon, some days you're the statue.

We're supposed to be

on our collection rounds,

so if you could cut to the chase.

My inside man has come good.

We're on for Tuesday.

Can you clear your diaries?

I'm sure we can find the time.

No more being a collection goon

for your uncle after this.

Let's hope so.

I've just landed,

just got back into the county

and you want me to do a job

with you tomorrow?

It's not a "job" job.

Like I say, the guy I do deliveries for

owes me a bit of money. That's all.

So why do you need a driver?

Well, if you don't want to

help your best mate out, fine.

Your world travels have changed you,

haven't they?

And not for the better,

may I point out.

Why do you need me to drive?

You're the best driver.

Everybody knows that.

Heads, you do it.

You still got the old Merc?

Yes, dad left it to me.

And, no, I'm not bringing it

on some getaway job.

It's not some getaway job.

Just wanna go cruising with

my best mate in a flash car.

Catch the eye of the ladies.

Yeah, well,

you need all the help you can get.

- I'll think about it.

- All right.

Show me a trick.

Look, useless poker hand.

Royal flush.

That is good.

No, I'm sorry, but I can't

and I won't pay that kind of money.

I like a man who stands up

for what he believes in.

Do you like photography?

I love photography.

Captures memories in such a

poetic way, don't you think?

My boss,

therefore your boss, Mr Zigic,

he likes to keep things simple.

Black and white, you might say.

You don't have to pay in cash.

They didn't.

Good boy.

If you see a girl you like the

look of, you come and talk to me.

I will arrange a table for you, so you

and the girl can get to know each other.

Thank you.

- Hi, Niko.

- Hello, Foxy.

All right, Foxy?

- Done deal, Mr Zigic.

- I'll take that.

Mmm. We'll speak to the

organ grinder, not the monkeys.

Your job's done.

Now run along, boys.

Sebastian.

Ladies, please. Now come on.

Let's have a little bit

of professionalism in here.

We're just messing about, right?

You gonna be all right with that?

It's very heavy.

Yeah, I'll be fine.

I've heard a little

whisper about you two.

Yeah? What about?

No, nothing. Just that

someone who knows someone said that

you're into playing little games.

I was just saying

what we heard about these two.

Yeah. We were wondering if you

fancied a poker night one night?

Is this what I'm paying you for?

Hmm?

It's just a little bit

of downtime, Mr Zigic.

One day this week?

Poker or blackjack?

Don't touch anything!

- I'm not! I was just...

- Don't just.

You nearly done?

Yeah.

Just gonna check the safe,

then we can go.

- Please don't touch anything.

- I won't.

Mmm.

I'm serious.

I've got a huge night on Tuesday.

If I don't get everything perfect,

my boss will kill me.

Ooh, Mr Zigic!

Raph, seriously, you're not even

supposed to know his name.

I know, but no one even knows

I'm here, right?

No, you're fine.

Why don't I come

and help you instead?

Turn around.

Goodbye, ladies,

see you tonight!

- Shirley Bunion, isn't it?

- F*** off.

Oh, my mistake.

I thought we went to school together.

Forget about it, mate.

I've missed you.

Yeah, I've missed you, too.

- So how long's this going to take?

- Oh, five minutes, tops.

Just gonna go in around the back.

I'll be back before you know it.

Why aren't you going

in the front door?

Keep the engine running.

You told me this wasn't a job.

You just can't keep

away from me.

You gonna do more magic on me?

If you like.

Be careful.

If I wasn't so innocent,

I'd say you were hitting on me.

- What brings you here?

- What brings you here?

You.

Look,

you may think you like me,

but I'm a whole world of trouble.

Really?

But if it makes you happy, I'll

take your number and maybe call you.

It's too noisy.

What do you want me to say?

I can't find my keys.

What do you mean, you

can't find the keys?

I can't find my keys.

Well, think, where was

the last place you had them?

- Uh...

- Come on, think.

They're in the safe, you plum.

My pleasure.

We gotta go! Come on!

Lucky!

- I hope to see you again.

- Yeah.

Lucky! Come on!

Let's go.

Can you drive faster?

- Just admit this was a job.

- All right, all right! It was a job!

Closer, closer.

Come on, come on, come on, closer.

What are you doing?

This thing's handling

like a bloody blancmange.

Have you got

your foot right down?

- Yes, I've got my foot right down.

- What, right down?

- Right down!
