Hello, I'm Angela Worth.

I'm the new police chief's wife.
How do you do?

Do you fancy some b*rned fudge...

or would you prefer a fist fight?

That's why I love her.

ANGELA:
Protect us.

Find them and k*ll them.

ANNA:
It should've been me.

WHITEY:
How much do you trust me?

ANNA:
I'm not her anymore.

JACK:
You're still my little girl.

He loves you.

You belong together.

Peas in a pod.

JACK:
He k*lled Pete, love.

Jack!

I hate my old life.

If you go near Anna, I will k*ll you.

- ROSA: Anna!
- You're a m*rder*r.

But I am your dad, though, right?

For sentimental reasons,
I always go on two. Five...

- No!
- Four...

So you k*lled him?

ANGELA:
There was no other way.

The people who he and Jack worked with

they're coming after us.

CATHERINE:
Do you really think they'd come back?

MICHAEL:
Yeah. I know Jack.

This is unfinished business.

ANNA:
So these are people that tried to k*ll us?

We k*ll everyone on the list.

ANNA:
Did my dad have any other relatives?

Yeah. There's Michael.

He's your uncle.

I'm coming for you.

You don't want them dead?

I don't just want them dead.

MARY: They will do everything in their power
to get what they want.

No matter the casualties.

- ANGELA GASPS

Oops.

I'm working with my parents just now.

Family business. What is it?

Uh, it's a removals company.

JACK:
Trying to m*rder me

my wife and my daughter

Do not trust Jack Worth.

You'll end up dead.

- Michael.
- Yeah, yeah. Michael.

That's what he does when he's cornered,
he gets inside your f*cking head.

Great. Jesus, great.

So we've just made him
even more dangerous.

Well, we've excelled ourselves there,
haven't we?

Alright?

Just, you know, shut him out

like you do when we tell you
your cooking's sh*t.

I think I'm scared.

Mm-hmm. Me too.

And if I'm right,
you probably know where that got her.

And I usually am, so...

You know the whereabouts of Jack Worth?

Angela? Anna?

Don't know where they are.

But you do know them then?

Can't do this right now. Later.

Sorry, Michael...

Do you know where you are?

Show some f*cking respect.

We either do this here
or down at the station, that's your choice.

Yeah, the problem
