[bunniefuu]

Off. Off. Off.

Off. Off. Off. Off.

Off. Off. Off. Off.

f*ck you, f*ck you,

f*ck you.

f*ck you. Oh, f*ck you.

Sorry, is that flame off?

Yeah.

OK, thank you.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Look - knob's turned to zero.

Yeah, no, I just I-I thought

the flame might still be on,

like a fault. No. I don't think

they work like that.

OK.

Of course not, thank you. Mm.

Mm. You are f*cked, mate.

Sorry.

Oh, f*ck.

Oh

OK.

OK. OK.

CHATTER

Mummy's boy!

SHOUTS

Dan! Wagwan, Dan?

Oh. S'up, Dris?

It's all blessed, it's all good,

it's all good. Listen.

Look, I just wanted to say

thank you for your time and that.

Like, I really enjoyed your classes,

but I can't attend no more.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

I finally got that job

in the kitchen, innit. Ah!

Got promoted from servery and that.

That's great news! Come on.

Thank you. Well done.

I'm so pleased for you, Dris.

I'll be on the out soon, Dan.

I'm just waiting

for my release date.

I can't lie, like

I need the distraction now.

All right,

well, I'm pleased for you,

but I think I might be running

a class on Wednesdays as well, so

OK. OK!

THEY LAUGH

ALl right, I might take that into

consideration, still. All right.

Know what I mean? Check my schedule

and that, you get me? Mm.

But, yo, pots have got to come

first, though, yeah?

Yeah, yeah, I get that.

Pots beforethoughts.

Yeah, yeah. You're trying too hard

now. Yeah. All right. Still.

Yo, what you debating today, though?

Luck.

Yeah, I don't know

anything about that.

You've never been lucky?

I've been washing pots.

I wash pots, I dry them,

I put pots away.

And then after that?

I come back tomorrow

and I wash more pots.

You know me, Dan.

I'm just biding my time.

Waiting for the out.

HE CHUCKLES

There you go, gentlemen.

Wait, um, where's the rest?

Code red on the wing.

But there's just three.

One, two

Wow, you're right.

Well, am I going to get more?

Um

I want you to imagine

two fictional worlds.

The first is called the Just World -

good things happen to good people.

Bad things happen to bad people.

Everyone is responsible

for what they do

and everyone gets exactly

what they deserve.

Yeah, but most

don't think like that.

Too full of self-pity, boss.

Men in here whining like,

"I don't deserve to be in prison."

f*ck you, man.

And the other is called

the Luck World.

Everything is pure luck.

Income, education, job -

all decided on the flip of a coin.

You could be a prisoner or a judge -

it's got nothing to do

with what you've actually done.

In the Luck World, no-one's

responsible for where they are.

Yeah, that world IS imaginary.

So you think that our world's

closer to the Just World

than the Luck World?

I'm in prison cos I made a choice.

I chose to put heroin in me.

People got to face

their own immaturity.

You ever do drugs, Dan?

No, no. Never.

So what if people aren't to

blame for their immaturity?

I'm 30! I'm going to be a dad.

I can't keep doing it.

You got a son, Dan?

No. Daughter?

No. No children.

You got a dad?

Not to speak of.

What do you think, Greg?

OK.

What do you think, Samson?

Is our world closer to the

Luck World or the Just World?

Samson?

Well, I'm here for causing death

through dangerous driving.

I'm not a k*ller.

I mean, you want to talk about luck?

She was a rock climber.

She was just about

to turn professional.

No kids, which

..was good.

Only, er, she'd just got this dog

andI don't know

what happened to it.

Do you think the dog is OK?

Um, well, I, I

I don't know.

I don't have a clue

what happened to that dog.

I'm writing my life story.

Oh, yeah? That's

That's great, Greg.

It's my life story.

Like everything I've done and that.

Would you just, like,

read the first ten pages?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think I can do that.

You've got them now?

It's a memoir.

Like my life story.

It starts with my dad.

He was inside as well.

You don't have to read it

if you don't want to

No, I I, sorry, I do, Greg.

I really do.

I want to read it, thank you.

I hear you're supposed to get this.

It's for Samson. He's on 24s.

Suicide watch.

You need to fill it in.

Right.

"6:15, ate some of his food.

"7:20, quiet. Appeared tired.

"4am, moved.

"Appeared to be alive."

You're to write what you observed.

What you sitting for?

I want to write what I've

observed What did you observe?

He seemed morose

..but OK.

That's it. "Morose but OK" -

that's your report.

I've got 15 men to be taken down

to Natal class. Write it.

Hello. Yeah. Um, my

name's Daniel Stewer.

Um, you reported on a

death through dangerous driving,

about six months ago.

A-A woman walking her dog.

Yeah, it happened outside this, um,

new-build sort of eco-house,

I think.

It's quite distinctive.

Big red doors.

Yes, that's it. That's the one.

I know this is going to sound odd,

but in it you say that she was

walking a dog

and I'm just trying to find out

what happened to it.

T-To the dog, yeah.

I wanted to talk to you

about an employee of yours.

Yeah, that's right, the dog.

The dog, yeah.

I think a Labradoodle.

Yeah, yeah, she was, um, a member

of your climbing club.

Um, about 26?

I know, yeah. So young.

Me? Um, well, I-I work in a prison,

and the guy who was

convicted of the offence is

wondering what happened to the dog.

Hello?

Oh, f*ck!

Lee. So sorry.

I'm so sorry. It's all right. It's

all good. There was this thing.

I had to do a I-I forgot. I'm

sorry. Dan, shut the f*ck up.

Look, you sure this is all right?

Yeah, of course.

When else am I going to be forced to

sit through a French film?

Oh, sh*t.

Look, let's do something else.

Dan, Dan, I am joking, all right?

It's the first night I've had out

since the boy's been born.

We could sit in the toilet

and stare at a wall for all I care.

It's great.

It's not French, it's Senegalese.

Well, it doesn't matter -

I'm going to hate it either way.

Everything all right?

Er, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's just, erm

Erm, sorry. Hold on.

Sorry, it's this girl

I'm sort of sponsoring.

She's having a bit

of a rough time of it.

Says there's this work party tonight

that she has to go to, so

Is that a good idea? Uh, she's a

recovering crack addict

who's six weeks sober.

No, it's a f*cking terrible idea.

Well, what'd you say?

I said, "Don't go in. Do not go in.

"Don't go in. Do not go in."

Right. And?

Oh, she's going to go in. Yeah.

She's stood outside the place now,

rattling.

She don't want to drink

but she'll go in.

I reckon she'll call to tell me

so in about two minutes.

What you going to do? Oh, I'll give

her the bulletproof vest.

The bulletproof vest?

I'll say to her,

"Here's what you do, right.

"You walk up to the door,

you say a prayer, you walk in.

"You walk straight up to that

bar-person and you look 'em

"in the eye, and when they ask you

what you would like to drink,

"you say these words. 'I would like

a glass of sparkling water, please.'

"And when they give you that drink,

"you hold on to it

and you do not let go.

"As long as you've got

that drink in your hand,

"everything'll be all right."

A bulletproof vest.

Christ.

My brother the guru.

Yeah, long way from injecting

heroin into me c*ck, eh?

Oh, hold on. Here we go.

Hello.

Yeah, no, no. Go on. Go on.

Yeah, you look them right in the

eye, then you say these words.

"I would like a glass of sparkling

water, please." Yeah, all right?

And when they give you that drink,

you hold on to it and you do not

let go. Everything'll be all right.

Yeah?

Is that bad news or good news?

I don't know.

Dan? Hey!

Hey! Oh, hey, Ryan!

Hey. How's it going?

I'm good, man.

I'm good. God, good to see you.

You too. Um, this is my mate,

Jorange. Joradge? Hey.

Er, Jorange.

Like orange but with a J.

Jorange, sorry.

This, this is my - sorry -

my brother, Lee.

Hi. Like Lee, but with a Lee.

What'd you guys think?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Yeah? You thought?

Yeah. It was, um

It was a bit

It WAS a bit.

It was a bit

It was sh*t. It was sh*t!

Yes. Yeah, it really was.

It was sh*t.

His last one was great, though.

Was it, though?

Yeah, his last one,

his last one was f*cking Oh.

Yeah, but that was

I thought it was astounding.

What you guys doing now?

I utterly loved it.

Wow. Do you want to go for a drink?

Er, yeah, f*ck it. Date night. Yeah?

Are you sure you?

Yeah, don't, don't need to worry.

OK, sorry. It's all right. OK.

Well, let's, let's go.

Great, let's go!

God, it was absolutely transcendent.

Yeah, transcendently sh*t.

Listen, Jorange has some MDMA.

I didn't want to say anything

in front of your brother,

but I thought maybe if you

wanted some?

No, no, not for me, thanks.

Are you sure? Because, Dan,

as you know, the fact you've never

taken drugs is something I regard

as a personal insult.

Mm, I do know that, Ryan.

And I just see it as my duty to

peer pressure you into it.

You, you guys go for it.

Well, if you're sure. But listen,

one of these days, I am going to get

you so f*cked up OK.

OK.

What?

You can do that, you know.

Take drugs.

No, look, I'm not going to

do that in front of you.

I don't mean now, dipshit.

I just mean in general, you know?

You can do drugs.

I don't want to do drugs.

Cos of me? Look,

banging a couple of E's

and waving your arms around is

a world away from what I used to do.

Yeah, I know, I know, I know.

It's just I don't know,

people don't have a clue.

And I'm not having a go at Ryan.

Like, he should have his fun,

it's just

He? He should? Dan, what about you?!

You should have fun! No, I'm not,

I'm not saying

that I shouldn't have fun.

I'm just saying that

What's the difference

between you and me?

Everything.

Luck.

That's the difference.

When Mum left Dad, I was a kid.

You were practically an adult.

And?

And if I'd had eight years

more of that man

..I don't know, maybe

Maybe

Maybe what?

Maybe you'd've turned out like me?

No. Look, Lee, I'm not saying

You know I'm not saying that,

all right? I just mean

I don't know.

You went through hell.

Look, we ain't the same.

If it'd been the other way round,

we still would have

turned out the same.

Oh, bollocks. Look, I got to go.

It's Amber, she's picked up.

Oh, sh*t. Yeah. I want to get

to her before she hits the rock.

Are you going down there?

Yeah, although, honestly,

I don't know where there is - her

texts ain't making much sense -

but I got to go. I'll come with you.

No, no, no, no, no. You stay.

Lee, this is our night.

Dan, this ain't exactly you

Well, let me help you.

Let me Come on, let me help.

Let me come with you.

Oh, come on. Lee, please.

Come on!

f*cking hell.

How's prison?

Good. It's good.

Well, no, it's, it's not good.

It's more kind of

totally f*cking insane.

Yeah, it's the chaos that gets you.

It's like you walk in and

the prison just screams in your face

and it doesn't stop

until you walk out again.

LAUGHS: Yeah! At least you get to

walk out.

Imagine that nine months solid.

So what about university?

What about it?

Well, what was wrong with that job?

Nothing wrong with it.

Well, you left it. So?

So why did you leave?

OK, look, in school,

I was always in trouble, right?

I was always winding up the teachers

with irritating questions.

Yes. You were a right twat.

Well

..irritating questions

is the point of philosophy -

that's why I was drawn to it.

I suppose teaching in a university,

all of the questions

just got a bit less irritating.

Wow.

I mean, that makes so little f*cking

sense it's unreal, bro.

I'm asking you - like, why a prison?

Why does it matter?

Oh, sh*t, we're getting off.

Press the button.

She's not here.

Right. She drink?

Yeah. Got totalled in about an hour,

had to be asked to leave.

By this lot. So she must be bad.

Do youDo you know where she is

now?

Yeah. She went to see a bloke

called Guppy. Who's Guppy?

Guppy's a crack dealer.

Oh, my God, Lee!

Lee, Lee, Lee!

All right, Gups. How's you?

Yeah, yeah. I'm good.

I'm so good.

Jesus, look at this. Look at you!

What's it been, like two months?

Three years. f*ck!

So what, you're like,

you're clean now?

Yeah, three years clean.

Mate, that is incredible.

I am so proud of you, man.

So what is it, like, working,

job, house, baby?

Is that right - a baby I hear?

Yeah, ten-week-old boy.

Oh, lovely.

That's what it's about.

Yeah.

Who's this?

Oh, this is my brother, Dan.

And he has never done drugs.

You're kidding!

Nah.

Dan! Clean Dan.

Nice one, Dan.

Two people to be proud of.

You're f*cking amazing, Lee.

And just so you know, what you're

doing, I fully endorse that.

Aw, thanks, Gups.

So you want to score, or?

I'm looking for someone.

A girl. I think she came down here.

Amber.

Oh, I don't do names.

She's got sort of small eyes.

Oh, yeah. Small eyes.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She was here about an hour ago.

After a pebble, but I'm all out.

She was well upset.

Not happy with that at all.

OK, so she hasn't scored yet?

Nah. Pissed as a nun's c**t,

but drug-free.

OK. She a friend? Sister?

Sponsee.

You're on a programme?

Mate, that is inspiring.

That is so inspiring.

Hey, maybe I should get back in.

If you want,

I'll take you to a meeting.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'd love that!

Not this week, though.

I got a lot on.

But maybe like

..next year.

Yeah

Do you know where she went, Gups?

I think she went

down by the garages.

Oh, sh*t. I'd better get down there.

All right, all right. Listen, Lee,

it was so good to see you.

And whatever you're doing, keep it

up, man. I mean that.

And here.

That's a freebie, just for you.

I'm clean, Gups.

I hear you, I hear you.

What about your brother,

you want a freebie?

I'mI'm good, thanks.

All right, all right.

So f*cking proud of you, man!

My guy, Lee!

Did you used to score down here?

Yeah, down here, up there,

round about.

Scored everywhere, Dan.

And this is worse gear?

It's worse than Guppy's gear?

Ah, it's not worse exactly,

it's just a bit

..grimmer.

That's how it works. You start at

The Ritz,

you end up at Chicken Cottage.

Why do you ask?

SIRENS IN DISTANCE

Mm.

I've been thinking a lot

about Dad recently.

Yeah, I don't know why.

I dream about him sometimes.

Really? Yeah.

f*ck, I shouldn't've let you come.

Why you saying that?

Ah, cos I don't like you

seeing all this dirt.

Do you remember

Uncle Pete's wedding?

No, I weren't at

Uncle Pete's wedding.

Yes, you were. No, I weren't.

Lee, you were at

Uncle Pete's wedding.

Dan, I swear on my kid's

f*cking life,

I was not at Uncle Pete's wedding!

We shared a hotel room.

You had to inject

so that you could sleep.

You kept poking the needle into the

sole of your foot to find a vein.

That took an hour.

And every time you missed a vein,

you'd apologise to me.

To me.

But you were the one

who was in pain.

I'd run out of methadone.

You shouldn't've seen that. Well,

you shouldn't have had to do that.

Look, the point is,

I have seen things, OK.

I'm not a different species to you.

Oh, my God.

You're doing my head in

with all this stuff.

Come on, let's go.

Love for that, Will.

Thank you. Yeah, man.

See if he wants one as well.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What's up, Andy?

Lee! f*ck, what you doing here?

I'm looking for someone.

Girl called Amber.

Do you know her? Small eyes?

Yeah. Yeah, she was here.

Did she score? Nearly, but the

feds've been up our arse all night.

She went.

Do you know where?

Yeah. But you're not going to

like it.

Not Marty's? f*ck! f*ck!

f*cking great.

Why, who's Marty?

Marty's awful.

Jesus Christ, man.

Stay where you are, please.

I mean, what is it with you lot?

It's the third time tonight!

Yeah? Well, go home, then.

My name's PC Stanton.

I'm from Forest Gate Police Station.

I have the right to conduct a

stop and search in this location

under Section 60 of the Criminal

Justice and Public Order Act.

Can you please take everything

out your pockets for me

and raise your arms

to shoulder height.

Am I going to find any needles,

today? No.

Any sharp objects today?

No, not today, no.

Don't need to search you.

What? Why not?

Sir, please move away.

SIGHING

Look, I think you should wait around

the corner. I mean, this guy

I really f*cking hate this guy.

Then we can hate him together.

Marty. All right, how's ithow's

it going?

How do you f*cking think it's going?

I thought you was clean.

I am clean.

Yeah, so what the f*ck you doing

knocking on my door?

I'm looking for someone. A girl.

Jesus, Lee, what is this?

Name's Amber.

So?

She came here to score.

So?

Marty, will you just f*cking tell me

whether she came here to score,

please?

OK. Where she go after?

The way you talk to me.

Oh

The way you f*cking talk to me.

You've always looked down on me,

Lee. Right, she's clean,

she's trying and I'm trying to

get to her before she chucks that

all away. So will you f*cking

tell me where she went to blaze?

Please.

She's here. Right.

sh*t.

Amber? Marty, why's she like

this? Just relax. Jesus.

She was bouncing, so I gave her

a xanny to calm her

Amber? Amber? ..but she's out of

practice and it zonked her.

But she's all right. Amber? Amber?

She's all right! Jesus, Lee.

She's all right.

This is my f*cking house, mate!

Is she? Lee, is she OK?

Yeah,

we just need to get her out of here.

Erm No, no, wait.

I'm going to f*ck her.

When she wakes up, I mean.

What the f*ck are you talking about?

Look, she said I could, all right?

Jesus Christ. What, I'm being a

gentleman! She said I could.

I got consent. I'm being nice. Oh,

yeah. You're being just gorgeous.

Right, er, give us a hand.

Er, take her weight, watch her head.

OK. I'll get All right, OK, yeah,

all right.

Amber, it's only Lee.

We're just going to try

and get you up, all right? Ready?

OK. Yeah, all right. Don't lean her

in, though. I'm not leaning her in.

You're leaning her in, mate.

No, I'm not, Lee. Come on, come on.

Take her. I've got her.

f*cking hell!

I'm being nice.

What the f*ck are you doing?

She said I could. She said.

You always were an arsehole, Marty.

Put that down before you

No! Don't, don't, don't, don't

underestimate me!

I'm sick of you doing that, Lee.

Look, mate, she's not well

You have always looked down on me.

..so I am taking her with me,

do you understand that?

That I'm not leaving here

without her?

Then you ain't leaving here.

Is this a party wall?

What? This is It's a party wall,

right?

What you talking about? You share

this wall with someone else?

It's a party wall.

Don't f*ck with me, you prick!

I'm not, I'm not. The b*llet's going

to go through. Once it's goes

through Lee, it's going to carry on

through the brickwork and the person

on the other side's going to call

the police.

It's a confirmed g*nsh*t.

They're going to be here

within eight minutes

and then you'll be in handcuffs

in 30 with a m*rder charge pending -

a double if you k*ll me.

That's going to be your life,

in half an hour.

Or we just go.

Just put her on the end there.

Yeah.

All right.

OK, uh, Lee, I think, I think

we should get moving.

No, no, no. We need to sober her up.

All right, we can't just wander

around with an unconscious girl

in our arms. A hospital, maybe?

No, she's not f*cking OD'd, Dan!

She's just out of it, all right?!

Why are you shouting at me?

Because you shouldn't be here!

He was pointing a g*n at you -

what the f*ck where you thinking?!

Lee, I just got us out. Yeah,

but you shouldn't have been there

in the first place!

Do you not get that?!

OK, look, OK, Lee.

I'm a grown man, yeah, OK?

I can make my own decisions, thank

you. Yeah, like working in a prison.

What's that got to do with it?

Because you are choosing

to go into that place.

That cesspit - you're choosing that.

I can't remember how many times

I was inside, but I never chose it.

Uncle Frank never chose it.

Even a f*cking psycho

like our dad never chose it.

So why are you choosing it?

Oh, my God. I don't know!

I don't know.

Right, look, we've got to sober

her up so we can get her home.

There's an offie down there.

Right. Go and get some water,

energy drinks

Lee

..f*cking pasty or something.

OK, look, Lee

Dan, please!

Um

Can I help you?

Yeah, um

Where did you get that dog?

Why do you want to know?

There was, um

Sorry. There was a woman.

She wasshe was k*lled here.

And she had a dog, but, um

No-one was looking after it.

It was just a puppy. It ran in.

We tried to contact the police,

but no-one was interested.

No-one um

Look, my kids love her, yeah.

They just love her.

What do you call her?

Scumbag.

It's affectionate.

Can I take a photo?

I won't say anything, I-I promise.

Just want a photo.

Yeah.

So what happened to the

bulletproof vest?

I did that.

I did exactly what you told me.

I said a prayer, walked in,

went up to the barman and said,

"I'll have a sparkling water."

And?

And he said, "We're out."

So I said, "OK.

"Large gin and tonic, then."

That was that.

I f*cked it, Lee.

Only for today, mate.

Tomorrow's tomorrow.

Tomorrow's looking good.

The writer Primo Levi

survived the Holocaust.

He saw the most extreme forms

of dehumanisation that have

ever taken place.

But he always maintained that he

should not be considered

a true witness of Auschwitz.

The only true witnesses,

he said, were those who'd died.

Levi knew that he was lucky

..but he was haunted by that luck.

He couldn't shake

the sense that he was, um

That he was alive, um

..in another's

Um, in another's

Um

Boss?

Um

..another's place.

As though he were

his brother's Cain.

Um, where's the guy who bunks here?

Your pad-mate, Samson - where is he?

UNTRANSLATED

Oh, Dris. Dris. You seen Samson?

Huh? Samson.

The guy in this cell?

Oh, that guy.

Yeah, he's dead, innit.

He's what?

Yeah, he k*lled himself. Suicide.

He

He'she's k*lled himself? Yeah.

I mean, no, he didn't k*ll himself,

but he tried.

Dris, is he alive or dead?

Oh, he's alive right now, but

he went off the wire, so he's dead.

Only a matter a time, boss.

Oh, f*ck.
