This is a disturbing case.

With many snags.

The indictment for attempted murder

was repealed by Raymond Bonnar

at his request.

Jurors who do not want to appear.

Prove that disappears from police safes.

A whole list of incompetence

to the police

and the magic of your hand,

without a doubt.

I have a good idea of?? who

and what you are, Ferris.

But unfortunately

I am bound by the law.

For possession of offensive weapons,

18 months.

Take him.

A message from Paul Ferris, you bastard.

The job is done.

Very lucky that he survived.

- The old man had a bulletproof vest.

It is not here fluff at the time, Paul.

- The Fatboy is at it again.

The knives are drawn.

- They say you gave the order.

I have some serious issues

arrange when I get out.

Do you still think that you are betrayed?

- No doubt.

There were only two people

who knew where that house is.

And I do not think Arthur has betrayed me.

It's someone else's work and

Fatboy is the name written on it.

It seems that Fatboy and McGraw

now have become good friends.

Of eternal enemies

the best friends now.

A Glasgow murder, a bullet

in his ass and in his head.

Everyone knows that he

a bulletproof vest.

Why is not he

murdered on the way Glasgow?

I just lost you.

- It was a fake attack.

They have deliberately screwed

to slide.'s on me

There someone pulling the strings here.

What should we do?

- Go get Fatboy.

Take that old grazing and McGraw also

if he so wants.

That starts a war, Paul.

- I did not start here, Jimmy.

I am taken to graze,

that I will not let go of my hand.

I think not, damn.

- You screwed this thoroughly.

He only bruised ribs.

He checked himself after two days.

He is suspicious. He himself

now surrounded by bodyguards.

That's bad luck, but it'll be fine.

We just have to be patient.

It is a travesty Tam,

a f***ing travesty.

We must show that we deal

go straighten, you know junior.

What, Ferris?

- Yes.

I wanted to divert him. Prison

I lost two good people

and it cost me a fortune.

You must show that you

there are personally doing.

Otherwise it does not look good.

He is a few weeks back.

I'll get it myself, personally.

Where are you looking?

Pretty boy.

You're my little boy.

I think you better for a while

can go away.

How long?

- Until the dust settles again.

And then?

I swear Anne Marie,

you mean everything to me.

When this is over, I'll step out.

I really mean that.

I want the rest of my life

spend with you.

That's all there is.

You sound like a f***ing record.

I do not want you. Cliche promises

I think you mean well

and that you think it will happen.

But if you deep inside

're honest with yourself, Paul

then you realize that it can never be so.

It has gone too far.

It has become a part of you.

It has taken over your life,

your soul repossessed.

I have thought long and hard about.

And I will always

for you are with your child.

But I do not think I love you.

What is this all about, boy?

I'll keep it simple for you, Arthur.

I have 100% loyalty data.

I have performed all orders

without question.

I thought if I could prove myself

I should work independently.

Would be like a son. I treated

But what I got in return?

I'm thrown to the wolves.

- Bullshit.

You son of a son who minkukel

you, acting in meat.

He has taken me to hell graze.

And I hear, I'm not the only

which is taken to tackle.

We can arrange this.

- Therefore it is now too late, Arthur.

It's gone too far.

What do you want me to do?

What the hell do you want from me?

I want to make sure you

I have not betrayed.

And then what?

Then you f***ing take my son.

That's not gonna happen.

I did not ask for this.

It's up to you to find a solution.

And it makes me really matter

whether you believe me or not.

But I was not.

Look over there, that is Glasgow.

A lot of blood, sweat and tears

is it sit.

I am who I am and I do not give up.

And if you want more, you can get that.

He was not.

He did not betray me.

And now what?

Now it is starting.

The old man is not the same

since he met him.

I guess he did not suspect him

and that's weird. f***ing

You are paranoid.

- Do you think?

Well, he's not going after him.

He says, let the dust settle

and then we'll see what happens.

Perhaps it lead him to you.

- Time you to do something, junior.

Show that you are a leader.

Take the fight to him.

Do not let him take the initiative.

We're in this together, right?

You're right behind me, is not it?

- Of course.

You switch from Ferris

as we agreed.

I put the old man to

and then we go together.

I can not get to him.

He is careful when he comes out.

Lure him out.

Damn, what is this?

- Can we talk?

Do I have a choice?

- I want you to pass a message.

That's enough.

What happened?

- Junior Thompson.

It was with a bunch.

- Your father is right, mate.

Look what has cuts, bruises

and a broken arm

but he's as tough as an old leather.

- He was lucky, thank God.

He's a f***ing citizen.

- I know.

Listen, McGraw has

also had with Fatboy.

He wants a meeting.

- Paul, should we regulate today?

Do nothing, guard the house.

What?

Do you have something to say?

F*** you, both of you.

F*** you, get out.

Hurry.

See this?

Here.

This is my hit list.

And top of the list, Ferris.

I want you to know,

I'm with you, Paul.

He has crossed the border,

he has gone too far.

Who can you trust when your

own people can not trust?

Is that so?

It does not matter to him,

coke in his nose

challenge everyone to get involved with him.

Where is he?

- Everyone has respect for the Godfather.

Who does he think he is?

Damn little a**hole.

He will sleep with the fishes

is over for the day.

I guarantee you f***.

Ferris

Johnny Davis, Jimmy Pearson, Glover

and Harlan, are all dead, you hear me?

And anyone with ties

with that bastard, going the same way.

Fatboy, I'm coming to get you.

Where is he?

I do not know, he's not here.

No, you do not, I'll walk.

It's just a little bit.

That's not a good idea, boss.

Remember who you

damn it works, you unconvincing.

I'm not afraid of anybody.

I'm not afraid of anyone, yes?

Look at your face.

Tell your father that he'll

a lesson, you f***ing a**hole.

Father, please.

Please.

Paul, get in the car.

No.

My Child.

We have witnesses who heard

that your name was called.

The old man said it was you.

He said you also wanted to murder him.

He has made a statement

and he will testify.

You are using this time, young man.

You're stuck without bail

to the process.

I feel that I owe them something.

I could not find those bastards.

I can not believe that Arthur,

has shown me to the police.

Usually, we arrange these things among us.

He knows the rules.

He made them.

- Yes, for his own convenience.

Paul, that man is a crook.

How is Anne Marie?

- She's still upset.

It'll be fine with her, she comes

get over it, they have to.

Listen Paul, newspapers
