Love/Hate

You go into her house, tie her, hold her at gunpoint.

Jesus Christ, that devil mask. Fuckin' Fran.

Fran was wearing the devil mask, was he?

That Tommy dope ratted me out. Fran, he didn't rat you out.

How's everything going? I don't want to be seen talking to you.

This is my number. Call me, day or night.

This is proper freaking me out, luv.

I'm going to talk to somebody about it.

Fuck it.

I'll tell you what he wants. That stuff you use, lidocaine.

I can't. Why not? It's legal for you.

It's your ma. She's in hospital. Is she alright?

She'd a bit of a stroke. Stroke.

Tommy. Tommy, are you okay in there?

Stay still a second.

You poor thing. It's bad, is it? Yeah.

I can't give you anything until the doctor sees you.

Have you had the bleeding before? Yeah.

And the headaches? Yeah.

As bad as tonight? No.

Okay. Okay.

How was she?

She was alright. That's yours.

That's me for the next couple of days, alright.

She must've been happy to see you. No, she was asleep.

Where are you staying? All over. You don't need to know.

It's no five star accommodation, that's for sure. If that's what you're worried about.

I'm not. I thought you'd be here for Warren's Communion.

I'm here for it, aren't I. And what about after it?

I'll have security.

I can't be here Trish, when there's a threat hanging over me.

I thought it was sorted. No.

I can feel it, I can smell it.

I just can't see it.

It's not going to stop us having a day out for Warren's Communion.

How much longer do you think? I don't know.

Sure if I was in the army it'd be the same, wouldn't it.

No-one's going to get me. That's why I'm on the move.

I'd be no use to you dead, would I?

Not a bad likeness all the same.

Fuck off Aido. I'm not a bleedin' rat.

I never said you were. I'm going to head off.

The copper wouldn't even give me my charge sheet. Tell him.

You had an ounce on you. I know I did.

I was there. Tell him I'll meet him anyplace, anywhere.

He can put me blindfolded in a boot and then he'll know.

What's the story with me, can I not talk to him?

He doesn't want to talk to you. Says you're benched. Why?

He thinks you're a rat.

Tommy!

Would you mind waiting here. I don't know where he's going.

Tommy!

What are you doing? Getting the bus.

I said I'd come pick you up.

Ah yeah.

I forgot.

I've a taxi waiting for us. Great.

It's a bleedin' disgrace.

Some fucker ramroads me, opens up on me with a sawn off and I'm the one gets put in for the night.

You can say that on video and we'll put it in your statement.

That fucker wants to get his license taken off him.

Sure Noely's going back inside. He's in court this morning.

If this the way the country's run I don't know why I pay my fuckin' tax at all.

This Tommy thing is okay, yeah? Ah yeah.

He might get a couple of years but the cops fucked one or two things that I'm looking into.

And does it hold weight, him naming Fran?

I don't think there's a problem there for Fran. But you never know.

Fuck sake Dave. Don't say that in front of him.

Tell him there's no fuckin' problem. There's no problem.

Yeah. Don't be fuckin' creating a problem for me.

I want to calm the prick down, not wind him up.

Frano, there he is now!

Not a bleedin' mark on you. Want a pint?

A pint over here pal!

Are you getting a new van? Nah. Dean's getting it fixed for me.

Not worth shite getting rid of it.

There was two of them, yeah? Yeah.

He took the shotgun out of yer man's hands. This fuckin' animal.

What was he having a go at your for? A few things. I fucked his mot.

He's not even still with her.

Otherwise I'd be trying to fuck her again to do his head in.

He's back inside, is he? Yeah.

I'll catch up with him again sometime.

Mouldy aul' ride she was anyway.

Wasn't worth getting these knocked out of me.

Have a word with my guy. Yeah, I will.

There we go. Have a rinse out there.

You still need to keep an eye on those hairline cracks.

It's fine for now buy maybe we should think about crowns down the road.

All I'm asking you is to listen to Dave.

I'm listening to him. But you haven't.

Did I interrupt you Dave? Did I?

Am I not sitting here listening to all you have to say?

Fran, Dave's been in the game years. I don't give a bollix.

No of fence Dave. I fuckin' don't know you.

You're representing me but I don't know you.

He's top notch Fran. I'm not saying he's not.

Then listen to what he has to say.

It's easy for you to say. It's not you that dopey fuck named.

It'd be a different story then, wouldn't it.

Dave, would you mind?

I've to make a couple of calls. I'll be outside. Cheers.

What do you want to do Frano? Want to fuckin' clip Tommy?

It'd be a fuckin' start. He's gone in the head anyway.

Fuck off and don't be annoying me.

He's married to Siobhan, he's family and he's a pal.

Jaysus Nidgy, don't make me laugh. Family?

Who the fuck knocked the bollocks out of him and put him in hospital?

The bleedin' tooth fairy?

I'll be honest with you. Some people can do their time.

But it's fuckin' rough being locked up.

If I have to do it, I'll do it.

But doing it for nothing, because some brain-dead fuck is missing

a bit of his oblong fuckin' delata.

That won't happen no matter who he's friends with.

Listen Frano, I've been around this game a lot longer than you.

There's no panic. See me panicking?

We've got a good thing going here. A bit of cash.

We've this dentist dope bringing in gear under the radar and we're all laughing.

But not a fuckin' hair.

When were you in hospital Tommy?

Yesterday it was.

Why? Why was I in hospital?

Cos of this headache. Fuckin' killing me.

And my ear was bleedin'.

Fuck this.

What are you doing here? You're giving me a pain in the bollix.

I don't know what you're at but it's not working.

I'm not doing anything, pal. Fuck off and don't be annoying me.

Would you give Miriam Daly a call in the morning and ask her to

come in for the new braces fitting.

I want to make sure we can get her up to date on her payments.

Yeah sure. I'll give her a call. See you tomorrow.

Have you a second Annemarie? Yeah.

Are you not happy here? What? No, I'm totally happy.

You seem to be second guessing me every time I'm with a patient.

I don't think they all need crowns.

Well you're not the fuckin' dentist. You're the nurse.

So unless you want to go to college and do the full 7 years,

I'm about as much interested in your opinion as I am in Mary's.

Terry. Are you alright, my aul' pal?

The misses not letting you slip her the old "once a week"?

Terry.

Come on. We'll go outside for a smoke.

Gav. Bring the smokes.

Fuckin' shitting myself. The nerves are gone.

Fuckin' 20 years ago I'd have went out and fuckin' decked him.

That'd be the end of it. Standing there, grinning at me.

Knowing he's getting to me.

I thought this would stop.

The gaffer can't find out about this and you don't be saying it to him for extra brownie points.

Even if he knows, he doesn't want to know.

Alright, I'm checking in.

Can I take your name please? Delany. Nigel.

Good girl. Not long yet.

Stick on the monitor.

Dirty bastard.

You can't breathe, can you?

Don't worry. Come on.

What are you doing? Don't fuckin' kill him.

Sorry about that. He doesn't know his own strength.

Have you got your breath there?

That's what it feels like when you can't get your breath and you're drowning.

We could take you now and fuck you in the river. No-one would know.

I don't want you around any more.

Are you sure about this thing?

Getting rid of yer man?

I'm not fuckin' going back in, that's for sure.

Pull him off the street, get him in the van.

He might think he knows but he won't.

I don't give a bollocks if he does. Prick's not right in the head.

I'd say the bitch will go tonight Fran. Yeah.

She's only gorgeous, isn't she Aido.

She's beautiful. You're a real little stunner, Princess.

Try it with the other bag. No.

Go on, I want to see.

I think I prefer the first one.

Where are you going?

I have to head back to the gaff. I have that thing in the morning, remember.

What'll I do Da? I don't know Eric. Talk to him.

He won't talk to me.

The longer it goes on, the more he thinks I'm a rat.

I know he thinks I'm a rat cos I can't go near him cos I know I'll get done.

I can't go near him cos I'll get done so that makes him sure I'm one.

Jaysus son, I can't make head nor tail of what you're saying.

Will you go and talk to him for me?

A new phone for you. I'm in it already.

Got the two of them tomorrow? No, only Debs.

The other ones are all fuckin' sick. Fuck sake.

It's a waste of bleedin' time. I know. We need a big haul again.

The cops are all over me.

I could ask Nadine. She wants to do the run.

I might have a clean way in that the cops don't know about.

Hey, I'm outside now.

Sorry. I was just in the middle of cooking something.

I was going to open the door with my own key but then

I thought that might be a bit weird.

I'll be with you in a minute.

Sorry. I'm nearly there.

The kids eat that?
