The Syndicate (UK) - First Season

I'll be in touch once I have a court date. I'll go to South Africa, to try and give us a few more years.

I found something in the bottom of your wardrobe. A cash bag.

A little red mini with a hood would be nice.

He knows it was you who hit him. No, he doesn't!

I've been to the bank so whenever you want to meet up.

Yeah, sure. Have you got the gear?

Right, you'd better be there!

I'm not handing over a million quid to some lackey. All right?

That American's waiting for you in the other room.

I'll see you there. I'll get it.

I think we should have alternate boy girl on the sofa. Yeah, that's fine.

Right, make space for the main man. Do you want me in the middle?

Yeah, you can go right in between Leanne and Denise.

Oh, any time you like, girls.

It's fantastic.

Money buys you power so no-one can get one over on yer.

No-one can, no-one can hurt yer.

And my life's completely changed.

Why don't you stand up to her, say something?

It's like you're frightened of her. I'm not frightened of me own mother.

You could've fooled me. When have you stuck up for me? I do. When?

That's not the point. We're not arguing about me mam.

I'm not having your mother tell me how to bring up my own son.

I'm not even having this conversation with yer.

She thinks cos she's a dinner lady

she knows everything and she blames me for the mess we're in.

Are we right?

No, I'll see yer there. But yer gonna be late.

We've got them idiots from head office coming.

I said I'll see yer there! Do you want me to hold yer hand or sommat?

They're waiting for me. Yer paranoid.

I shouldn't have let you talk me into that holiday!

That set us back two grand! A week in Ibiza, big deal.

Oi! What do you think you're doing?

I'm sorry, there's a gas leak! They're digging up the path!

Hi, Dad, you all right? Yeah, I'm just on me way to work. Listen.

I was wondering, you reckon you could lend us a few quid until...

Yeah, right, well, I was gonna pay you back,

but you went walkabout with what's-her-face, didn't you?

Well, I wouldn't ask yer if I wasn't desperate, they're gonna...

I've gotta go.

Yeah, all right. Get off me!

Hello, Jamie. You decided to take a little detour, did yer?

I want two grand off you or me gear back.

I haven't got your gear.

Looks like we're going for a little ride, boys.

Where you taking me? Boss, seriously, it weren't even my fault.

The bloke who was supposed to buy the gear off me screwed me over!

He nicked it all, I can even tell you where he lives.

I work in a shop, you know where I work,

you can trust me, I'm good at selling stuff!

I'll get you 400 quid as soon as I have been to the bank,

I may be able to stretch to five.

Boss, I promise you I get paid today,

you'll get your money by Tuesday.

You've been saying that for three weeks now. I mean it this time.

I've heard it all before, Jamie.

What yer doing? No honest, honest!

I've sold some stuff on eBay, I'm just waitin' for the money.

And Rumpelstiltskin shagged Sleeping Beauty.

I know I screwed up this time, but you're not gonna lose out,

yer gonna get yer money. I've sold me bike and me laptop.

I done really well.

I don't believe a bloody word you say. It's the truth.

Do you want to know what the truth is?

You work in a shop, Shit-For-Brains.

Shops have big shiny tills that are full of money.

Guess who's gonna be Guy Fawkes.

Oh, God. No, no, no! Please, I'm begging yer.

I'll do anything you want! Please, please.

Don't! I swear you're gonna get your money.

I swear on my mother's life, you're gonna get yer money.

I'll do anything, anything you want. It's too late.

No! OK, listen, listen, listen.

I know the number to the till at work and the safe and it's rollover week...

OK, lads. Bonfire night.

NO! NO! Jesus Christ no!

I'm begging you.

Tomorrow or it's petrol.

Can you undo me?

Eh? Can somebody untie me?

I promise you, I only found out about this two days ago.

And as soon as I did... Sorry I'm late.

This is Stuart's brother Jamie, they're both usually on time.

Pleased to meet you, Jamie. I'm sorry, Bob, have I missed owt?

We're all being made redundant. What, yer jokin'?

Newbury's have bought us out. Yeah. Where is Stuart?

He's on his way in. He's had a row with his missus.

What? What I don't get is, why now?

Last Friday and Saturday we had six and a half grand in that safe

and rollover weekend we sometimes take even more.

On a more positive note, by way of an apology,

Head Office have offered a bottle of whisky or gin to each employee.

And this is the interesting bit.

He picks the whisky bottle up,

not caring that his finger prints are gonna be all over it...

and then he goes to crack Bob Davies' head open with it.

So I gather you chose a bottle of gin?

Yeah, I'm not really a whisky drinker.

But your fingerprints were found

on the neck of the bottle of whisky that the assailant used.

Why do you think that was, Jamie?

Dunno. Shall I tell you why?

Yeah, go on then. The same reason your alibi didn't check out.

Hey look, it's not my fault

if the Black Swan's CCTV got recorded over, is it?

It were nowt to do with me.

I was there, you spoke to me mate Wayne and he told yer truth. Did he?

Your fingerprints were on the whisky bottle

cos it was you that robbed the store

and cracked Bob over the back of the head with it.

Well...

I guess you've thought of everything, haven't you, Columbo?

Hang on a minute,

I remember now,

I don't think you'll be able to tick that box, cos erm,

if you look back at the morning footage, I think you'll find that

Mr Allen offered me the whisky

and I changed my mind.

I gave him it back and went for the gin instead.

I'm sure it'll all be there for you to crawl over.

Now, if there's nothing else,

I've gotta pick my new suit up from my tailors.

I've got to look good for Bob's do tonight.

You think you're invincible now you've won the Lottery. If I were you, I'd save some of yer money

cos you're gonna be needing it to pay for a good defence lawyer.

Thanks for that piece of advice, Inspector Know-all.

Now I think you've gotta let me go.

I've told his son we are coming now.

Well, you just have to tell him I'm not then, won't you?

Don't see why we don't get a decent car.

I've just bought this house, a £20,000 ring

and booked an holiday in St Lucia, so crack yer face.

Hiya.

Nice house. Cheers.

We've got loads to do to it,

but we couldn't stay at yer mam's any longer.

Oh, come and have a look at the pool. Better go, you've been summoned.

We bought everything off them, even the fishes. Oh, bloody hell!

What time are you and Stu setting off tonight?

I'm not going to Bob's do, it's my mate's hen night,

it's been booked for ages.

Oh, right.

I thought you were going...

Hey, look at that, it's heated, right,

and there's a sauna and sunbed room.

It's wicked! Where's yer hen night?

Phonos. 12 of us, it's gonna be messy.

Right. Well, if you want to come back to me club later on,

I'll make sure they give you a few bottles of fizz. Oh, yeah, great.

So if I tell them I'm Stuart's fiancee, will they know who I am?

Yeah. Yeah, course they will. When did you get engaged then?

Oh, he's asked me to marry him loads of times

and I saw this ring in a jewellers in town and I loved it,

so I rang him and he said, "Yeah, just get it."

We might get married in St Lucia

and we'll have a party when we come back.

We better get off, yeah? Yeah.

Hey, great do, Bob, and congratulations!

Thanks.

Hey, Jamie!

Have you got something to say to me, lad?

Good luck in South Africa, mate.

Ain't it lovely? Do you know when you're going to get married then?

Well, he said the honeymoon was in South Africa

so he's going to have to get a move on.

And next week I get the Porsche.

Oh, you all right? Yep.

The room's just there.

You get yourself sorted babe, all right? Yeah.

Yeah.

You all right? Yeah.

Oh, it's our Jamie.

So what are you two up to then? As if I need to ask.

We've just put Stacey to bed.

Right. Well, we have.

Don't, Leanne, he's off his face.

Piss off!

Anyway don't bother me what you get up to, I'm not yer missus.

All that sniff's given yer brain rot. Tosser!

Hey, boys!

How are you doing?

What are you doing here?

Do you want a lift?

Yeah.

Right, night, girls!

See you after my holiday!

Don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Cheers, Wayne. Are they treating you well?

Can't complain.

Nice job, eh?

Yeah, good to be earning a bit of money.

And that's for the bit of business yer sorted for me.

Cheers, mate.

The police asked me loads of other stuff,

but I just kept saying what you told me to say.

Job well done, mate.

The whole lot'll be up his nose by morning.

What did you give it him for then?

Cos I owed him and I don't like owing people money,
