-Yeah, yeah.

-You are such a little slut.

- Go f*** yourself.

Right, here we go, boys. Munchies.

More importantly, jobs.

Steve, Lew, there's a monastery

on our side of the river.

I want you to find it. It's on the map.

Blue and Jethro, I want you to find some

high ground in case the weather changes.

Callum and Lindsay, there's a natural

harbour. I want you to find it.

-Wait for me!

- Piss off.

-Jed said you and me.

- I didn't.

I thought you were different.

Well, I'm not! I'm just like

all the others, so f*** off!

- So you want to cross the river?

-You heard what Jed said, man.

- There's girls there.

- They're a little too white for me.

I don't care about their colour, blood.

ljust care about their gash,

you get me?

To be honest, bruv,

I don't think you really stand a chance.

Look at that chick back at camp.

What's her name? Jo.

She was only making eyes for Lewis.

Yeah, but why, Jethro?

I mean, I reckon I'm quite buff.

Buff? You see them girls?

They like the big mans, like me.

I'm big, man. Trust me, I'm big.

Where it counts.

It's not worth it, man. I say we just

kick back and chill here, innit?

Take in some of that fresh air, Blue.

Oi, oi.

I'm not one to blow my own trumpet,

but well done, me.

I've got the map.

That's the point.

I didn't need the map, you did.

Who the f*** is this guy?

Looks like someone left a monk behind.

Are you all right, Father?

Or did they forget about you, eh?

Eh?

Eh!

F*** him.

Now that's not very holy, is it, Father?

Lew.

Take that stick away from me, man.

Why have you got a stick?

- Cos I want a stick.

- Put it down, man.

Afternoon, lads.

- Get lost?

- Never even tried.

-What's the point?

- It's good foryou to do something new.

Good forthe soul.

You'll thank me for it one day.

Don't count on it, Jed.

Fair enough.

Are you all right, mate?

Jesus. F***.

We need to get out ofhere.

Come on, let's get Louise.

What are you doing?

Come on, let's get Louise.

Callum. Up you get, son.

I know what this looks like,

but I swear...

Get the f***ing c*nt off me.

- Stay down!

- Don't struggle!

-Atramp lived here?

-Yeah.

For an uninhabited island,

it's getting pretty f***ing crowded.

You seriously do not think I did this.

You sent them to find it, not me.

- But we neverfound it, did we?

- No, we got lost.

Yeah. I f***ing know you.

-You don't know nothing.

- There's something not right.

Too f***ing right there's not.

I think they look like bite marks.

Right.

Well, this trip is well and truly over.

- Got a phone?

-Yeah.

Use it. Call the mainland.

The phone's gone.

Maybe we should let the police

decide who's guilty.

Maybe you should stop

undermining my authority, Louise.

How much experience have you had

with special-unit youth prisoners?

Me? Ten years.

No, not much to be honest.

I served in Basra with the

The inmates I'm used to are Republican

Guard, Fedayeen and Taliban types.

You're right, I've not had much

special-unit youth experience,

but it was all they had.

How much experience have you had with

dead bodies and how they got that way?

Right, who's the joker?

Who's got my phone? Which one of you

slags has taken my f***ing phone?

We ain't got your phone, man.

If we did we'd give it back.

-Just to get out of this shitty place.

- I need my phone.

-You f***ing know, don't you?

- I ain't f***ing got it, right?

And even ifl did, you ain't got the

stones to take it off me, have you?

You done a head count recently?

There's more of us than you.

Simple question!

Have you got the phone? Yes or no!

No, f***ing no!

You need to keep a lid

on this situation.

Right, everyone listen up.

Considering everything

that's happened today

the girls are going

to stay here tonight.

No dicking around. I mean it.

- So what's the plan? We leaving?

- No.

Tomorrow we'll find the tramp's boat,

take it to the mainland and get help.

So get some food on, eh?

Them Supernoodles are mine.

Bruv, I'm sick ofbeans.

Stop moaning.

- So you enjoying that?

- This isn't bad.

Can you give me the keys

to Callum's cuffs?

-Why?

- I want to give him some food.

Unless you want to.

Louise, don't be mugged offby Callum.

Don't be fooled by him.

You never know which way

he's going to fly.

He's got a list of previous

as long as my arm.

Tell you something,

you know when he was 14,

he even killed another boy.

I know, I was there.

He got away without charge.

Maybe he shouldn't have done.

I don't know what he's capable of.

Still want the keys?

You're taking a bit of a risk.

I'm a stone-cold killer, remember?

I don't think so.

You don't think I did it then?

I don't think

you could do anything to me.

Can I smoke a cigarette?

Did you kill that lad

back in the other institution?

What?

Jed's told you his favourite story then?

Well, did you?

He died.

You see that?

This lad, Neeson,

stuck his craft knife in me.

I defended myself was all.

He stabbed me,

but no way I wanted to kill him.

Why would I want to kill him?

I don't want to spend

all my life inside.

These boys, they don't give a sh*t.

They love it. They're never getting out.

But me, I'm using this.

I've got a plan.

-You've got a plan, eh?

-Yeah, I have.

I keep my head down

and I do this quietly.

Cos when I get out

there's no foster care,

no more care at all, out of the system.

It's just Callum.

And I can have one day without doors

slamming, without shouting,

just silence, to think.

Shh!

-What's that?

- It's me.

Shh!

Yo, Blue, come on, man. Wake up.

-Wake up, it's water duty.

- It don't take two of us.

Jed said not to go out alone.

You'll need a crowbar and a winch

to get me out ofhere.

I ain't movin', all right?

So flippin' useless, you, man.

- Don't know why I hang around with you.

- Shut up!

Hello there!

# Yeah, yeah...

So you let him go out alone, you...

you plank.

How many times

have I got to tell you things?

He's gonna be fine.

I mean, what's gonna happen to him?

I'll tell you what's gonna happen.

You are going to go and find him.

Let me get this straight.

You want me to go out there alone

to find another guy out there alone

when no one's meant to be alone.

Really makes sense.

I'll tell you what, why don't you take

your best mate, shitty pants, with you?

Yeah, take Lindsay

foryour protection, Blue.

No, I'd rather go out alone.

Don't talk to me, yeah?

Don't walk near me. Do you understand?

What you doing? That's nuff close.

I said don't walk next to me.

- How far?

- That far! Just stay away from me.

F***ing d*ckhead.

Sh*t, it's always me, innit?

Jethro!

-Jethro, man!

- He's not here, is he?

Well, he was here, look.

Just keep lookin', innit?

Jethro, man!

Come on, cuz, where are you?

Come on, cuz!

Jethro!

Look, why do you think he'd run off?

Do you think something bad's

happened to him?

Something bad? You'd like that, innit?

A little bit of action.

You never did like Jethro...

-We'll make a move when they get back.
