Will Page #3

---

- A slow-cooked meat stew.

And then you'll be in Turkey.

World class kebabs.

- It's a bit of a trek.

- It's the finals. mate.

The match is on the 25th.

We checked the tidal

charts and the uh... ALT.

Ambient Lunar Transition.

Yeah. moonlight.

This full moon provides

your optimal go time.

Napoleon.

Winston Churchill.

Will Brennan.

Many are called. few are chosen.

This IS your time. Will.

I smell fear.

Lt'd better not be you.

Here.

Come on.

Hold on a sec. Will.

You might need these.

- Have you got your map. directions?

- Yeah.

Thanks. Simon.

As the dust cloud said to Orion:

Ready. set...

glow!

Here. Here.

I can't reach that.

Me too.

Get on my back.

Ouch!

Sorry.

- Where are they?

- Tipped off.

Oh. you tricky girl!

They might get pinched there.

Put 'em in a safer place.

Trainer.

Wait!

Can I hold 'em a second?

Aren't you coming?

Look. you've got a few

hours till sunrise.

I need to stay here and

throw 'em off the scent.

Yeah.

They'll try to break me down.

But it will take at least three

days to beat it out of me.

By that time you'll

already be in Istanbul.

Could get a bit sticky.

They might even have

to bring in the dogs.

Come in.

I suppose you're

here for the money?

Oh. come on. Will.

I can't just give you the money

and let you bugger off to Turkey.

My father won that

money fair and square.

Your father was a very

good friend of mine.

And I need to do right by him.

Me too.

Will.

Do you know what would happen

if the police found out that I'd

given a ten-year-old kid...

I'm eleven.

All right... if I'd given an eleven-year-old

kid over a thousand pounds.

As he ran away from school.

Hell bent on the Champions League Final in Istanbul.

Do you know what they'd do?

- My father said you're a man of your word.

- They'd hang me from the closest tree.

- That's what they do.

- I believed him.

How you going to get there?

I don't have a lot of time.

Can I please have my money?

If the police find eleven hundred pounds on you.

I shall testify that you stole it.

I can't steal what's

already mine.

Oh. don't get smart.

I'll need to pull

the money out of the safe.

I won't be a minute.

Hello?

Sister Carmel?

It's Davey Lennon from the pub.

Will. where's Davey?

- Getting my dad's winnings.

- Oh...

Good for you.

How have you been. all right?

If you ever need anything.

You just ask.

OK?

See you soon.

Oh. and tell Davey I cashed up.

OK?

Night. Will.

Will!

Richard.

Richard!

You have a lot to answer for.

What do you mean?

We're all done in number four.

John.

Kevin. how many in total?

That looks all right.

- Finished the paperwork?

- Yeah.

This is OK.

Ten minutes till

we start boarding.

It's all clear on number 7.

Steve.

There you go. sir. All right.

- OK. mate you're clear to board.

- Cheers then.

Thank you.

Is this Paris?

Is this Paris?

Outside Paris.

- Where you going?

- The station. Gare de L'Est.

You need to take a bus to the metro.

Then into the city.

You take the metro

number four or seven.

No?

Go ask Alek for a ride.

He drives into Paris every day.

- Thank you. Mister.

- Mr Wong.

Thanks. Mr Wong.

I know you?

I'm from Sarajevo.

Come on. man.

Sarajevo is my club. my father's club.

My grandfather's.

You look a lot different.

But it's you.

I know it's you.

I remember. We all remember.

- What do you remember?

- Nothing. Sorry...

That's all done now!

Understand?

I'm sorry. Zukic.

I meant no harm.

It's just...

You gave us all hope.

And then...

N K Sarajevo!

You left them in your door.

You're Alek. right?

- You can take me to Paris?

- What?

Mr Wong said you could

give me a lift.

You know Mr Wong?

My father works with him.

- OK.

- Hey. Zukic!

OK. get in. Quick. quick.

Where am I dropping you?

Gare de L'Est.

I'm meeting my Dad there.

Are you a footballer?

Are you blind? I drive a truck.

Did you use to play?

Isn't NK Sarajevo

a football club?

Who cares!

For the record.

I ain't saying yes or no.

Then. what are you saying.

Richie. For the record?

I'm rough. I'm rude.

And yet I got a reputation out on

the street as a straight shooter.

Is that right?

We're asking you for the last time.

Where's Will?

- Liverpool most likely.

- Richard!

Stop lying or you

will regret this.

Isn't it enough that

you are so sinful?

Do you have to drag

Simon down with you?

Simon...

What can you tell us?

I... I'd prefer to have

my lawyer present.

Is that an admission of guilt?

If you're pressing charges.

I have the right to legal advice.

And the right to see the

police code of conduct.

A solicitor is not going

to save you. son.

Psst.

Are you gonna bring in the dogs?

Stop. stop. please. stop.

- What's wrong with you?

- Look. there!

- There. there. there. Please.

- OK. OK. I'm stopping.

- Is that Notre Dame?

- Yeah.

Here's good.

Umbrella?

How far is it

to the train station?

What?

How far is it to

the train station?

See that street?

Follow that street until you

hit Boulevard de Sbastopol.

- It's a straight shot. you can't miss it.

- Brilliant.

Thanks!

Hey. be careful.

What would you like?

One of those. please.

Here you go.

- You're in France now. Euros!

- But it's all I have.

- Go on. get out of here!

- Forget it then.

Hey!

Look at your world.

Hey. come back.

Give me back my wallet.

Hey! Stop!

Stop! Please!

Come on.

Please give my wallet back.

Please give it back.

No!

No!

Where is Will Brennan?

Only four days before the

Champions League Final.

A fanatical Liverpool supporter.

Has run away from

this school in Kent.

We should have flown him to the game.

It was all he had left.

But we. believing we were

acting in his best interests...

took away his last possession...

hope.

The church

is beautiful. eh?

Isn't the church beautiful?

- Excuse me?

- You English?

Hmm...

- You ready?

- What for?

Quatre, trois, deux, un...

So how do you know Alek?

- Who's Alek?

- What?

Little man...

My own X-ray eyes saw you getting

out of Alek's truck this morning.

- Mm-hmm.

- How do you know that?

I was right down there.

Spreading my holy sunshine to the masses.

Are you a priest?

Do I look like a

Catholic priest?

Come in. Rangoon.

One more.

One more.

And again.

Now. are you waiting for Alek?

Is he supposed to pick you up?

Alek! Alek?

- Alek...

- Yeah?

- You should lock your doors. my friend.

- Why?

To keep surprises like this out.

- What surprise?

- The person you forgot to pick up.

Hi. Alek.

How long have you

known each other?

I gave him a ride

from Rungis today.

That long?

- Salut, Serge.

- Salut.

Oh. hello.

- My name is Mathieu. what's yours?

- Will.

Hello. Will.

Are you dining with us. Serge?

I'd love to stay and figure

out the cosmic intersection.

But I got to bounce.

- But I know the little man is hungry.

- You're leaving him here?

I just boogied across town.

Now that he's here. I am leaving.

Let's eat.

Then we'll sort it out.

Please. join us.
