Gangs of London

Is it them?

Why is it turning?

Luan.

It's done. We have Asif's heroin.

All 140 million of it.

You know how it feels to be powerless.

To be a pawn in someone else's game.

The things it makes you do... just to hold on to some kind of life.

That's all my dad ever knew.

Throwing fights for money, night after night.

Elliot.

- What do I always say? - Pawns can't be kings.

He was my dad, so I believed him,

but it took me years to understand.

That's how he found his dignity.

Ah, Jesus!

But I... I couldn't accept it.

I needed to know.

What does it feel like

to be a king?

Hello?

Sean, Asif's shipment was stolen.

The heroin is gone. Somebody betrayed us.

Sean?

Fuck!

- Sean, what's going on? - The heroin's gone.

All 1.3 fucking tons of it.

- Look, it's just one shipment. - No, no. It's more than that.

Koba and I made a statement.

We made it clear London was ours

and someone just decided the fuck it wasn't!

Who knew the routes?

- Merwan and Koba. - Right, Merwan, then.

- Retaliation for Lale. - No. He doesn't know.

He doesn't know that... He doesn't know.

And he's made peace with us using Asif's heroin.

- He knows it's a necessity. - So Koba?

Koba has nothing to gain from weakening our position.

But he has everything to gain by weakening yours.

I am aware of my situation.

Sean...

Koba. We have a problem...

Koba and Merwan.

They aren't the only two people who know the route.

- You know it. - What did you say?

- I said you know the routes. - No.

You just accused me of betraying my own son.

You didn't like the deal Sean made with Koba.

You want to see the Wallaces on top. Singular.

I'm just asking you if maybe you aren't being entirely honest

about which Wallace that is.

Jesus, Billy!

I've really failed you, haven't I?

We aren't talking days. We're talking weeks.

- Minimum three. - Fu-u-uck!

How did you let this happen?

We didn't let anything happen. Someone on your side betrayed us.

Or one of you betrayed the other.

We need to fix this now, Asif.

Not in three weeks. Now.

This is as much your problem as it is ours.

How so?

Because of the price I paid you.

Because I gave you Lale.

We can't claim a monopoly on the drugs trade

if we don't have any fucking drugs to sell.

I'm here in Lahore. There is no product yet.

What do you want me to do?

Give me a reason not to send Merwan and a team of Kurds to Lahore

to wipe out you and your family.

Clock's ticking, Asif.

All right.

I made a delivery to Bibi Agostini in Paris. A week ago, maybe.

No way they could have moved even 20% yet.

So we go to Paris and take the rest from this French fuck.

Agostini's one of the biggest players in France.

You don't take from Agostini. You make a deal.

What's it about?

Here, this is for you.

Rasha Zidane?

What is this for?

You're going home for a few days.

Paris? Why?

Koba asked for you again.

Him and Sean Wallace are going over to make some big deal.

They want you there as a translator.

Is this a fucking joke?

You tell me you're going to make Sean pay for Basem.

And now you want me to work for him?

You work for me, Saba.

You understand?

So that means you work for Sean Wallace now.

It's the way it goes.

Don't look at him, look at me.

Koba asked for our help.

Hm?

Do you understand me?

That's good for us.

Saba.

Don't fuck this up.

We've got Sean and Koba's heroin.

Luan intercepted it, and we're going to distribute it.

Marian told Dad that Sean and Koba are going to Paris

to buy more from a dealer out there.

When?

- Tomorrow. - Where?

Where? Her office?

Club, restaurant, Agostini's fucking house? Where?

- I don't know. I'll find out. - Thank you.

Elliot, are you sleeping?

You're not thinking clearly.

After you kill Sean, what you gonna do?

Look, I want you to come out of this alive.

When Marian Wallace finds out her son's dead because of you,

what are you gonna do?

If we do this right, it doesn't just end with Sean and Koba dead.

You and me. We could build something together.

But if you're not in the right shape for that, then we should wait...

They can't cross international borders with an army of mercenaries.

They'll be vulnerable out there.

And I got people in Paris. They won't see me coming.

We should move on this, fast. What's our plan?

We need to get ahead of this Agostini problem.

Luan, contact your men and get them to move this now.

To weaken Koba's position...

we sell to the gangs for half price.

Flood the market with our heroin before Sean and Koba do.

- Agreed. - Yes.

Okay. Let's get to work.

The phone.

- Billy? - It's Luan.

- Billy found the heroin. - What?

Marian.

What do you want me to do with him?

Um...

Understood.

Get in.

Luan, you can't lock me in a van filled with heroin.

I'm not. Your mother is. Get in.

Luan, whatever she's paying you, Sean will double it.

He'll... He'll double it.

Luan! Luan!

Please! Please, Luan!

Luan, he'll double it. Don't leave me in here!

Luan!

Please! Luan!

Beautiful city.

- Nice to be home? - I'm from Saint Denis.

This is no more my home than Buckingham Palace.

Regarde les pâtisseries!

Okay.

What the fuck? This is recon, you can't do this now!

Fucking tourists

and cops everywhere!

Merci.

Merci.

Merci.

Merci.

Bibi Agostini.

We can order. It's her place.

Well, Bibi, it's a pleasure.

I believe you know why we're here?

Someone stole your heroin and you'd like some of hers to replace it?

So, how about it?

I don't like waste.

So I only order what I need.

Which means I need what I order.

It's a temporary measure. We'll replace it before you miss it.

Unless they steal the next load.

Is that it, then?

- Hm? - Au revoir.

Finn Wallace would have burned this fucking place down if he was here.

That sounds like him.

After spending an hour trying to fuck her.

That definitely sounds like him. Luckily, I take after my mother.

Not too much, I hope.

So...

The heroin. How much do you want? How much are you willing to pay?

We want half of it, and we're paying nothing.

It must be my birthday.

We're proposing a partnership.

Our cities have never worked together.

We have no pay masters.

It's an advanced system that sees the money flow faster, one way.

We own the ports, the routes and the infrastructure.

She needs to be somewhere.

We can meet in VIP at her club, 9pm. Talk more.

Okay?

Bibi.

Look forward to talking more.

It's a pleasure.

Nice to meet you.

You look like your father.

- I like her. - Hm.

Let's see what she wants in return.

Agostini's leaving.

Me and Sean need to talk.

You go see your old friends but be there 8:30.

Don't be late, Saba.

They're leaving.
