02x08 - See You In Your Dreams

Post by bunniefuu »

Uh, so my name's Ray.

I'm, uh, Brittany's dad.

UM [CHUCKLES]

: I work in the security industry.

So, basically, I work in a club.

And, um you know, my job is to kind of make sure that people behave themselves while they're in the in the club.

Yeah, love? Are you a bouncer? Uh Mm.

Yeah, there's a bit more to it than that, but, yeah, basically, um, yeah, I'm a bouncer.

Yeah, man? You're pretty small for a bouncer.

Yeah, I guess, but, um, it's not the size of the dog in the fight, mate.

What does that mean? Well, it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

I don't get it.

Um Well, in a fight, what matters is how much heart you've got.

That's kind of what decides a fight.


- Yeah, man?
- Do you think you could b*at my dad in a fight? Well, I've never met him, but, um, I'd I'd say
- probably not.


- What about Conor McGregor? Uh, uh, definitely, definitely couldn't b*at Conor McGregor.

Yeah, love? Is your job dangerous? Um No.

Not really, no.

I wouldn't say it was.

Yeah, mate? Have you ever k*lled anybody? Uh, once.

Really? What happened? Uh, this kid was asking me too many questions.

I'm just kidding, mate.

I'm just kidding.

[CHUCKLING]

Uh, okay, man.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

What, no socks went out of fashion, did they, mate? Your mate b*at the sh*t out of old Stan last night.

Dirk? Yeah.

What happened? Stan was getting flirty with Giselle.

You know, nothing out of the usual.


- Mm.


- Your mate comes in like a bull at a gate, starts getting rough.

Stan said something I don't know what.

Next second, old Stan's laying on the ground, getting his head stomped on.

Is he all right? No, he's not all right.

I had to get Mandy to take him to the hospital.

Now, I know he's your mate and all, but he's got to go.

Mm.

[CHILD SHOUTING IN DISTANCE]

DIRK: Hello? It's me.

Hi, mate.

How you doing? Eh.

[CHUCKLES]

Feeling all right? Yes, pretty much.

[SNIFFS]

Not a bad joint.

Yeah, it's [GROANS]

all I can bloody afford, isn't it? You want a drink or something, mate? A sandwich? Some pharmaceuticals? Nah, I'm good.

[GRUNTS, EXHALES]

So you b*at the sh*t out of old Stan, eh?
- Yeah.


- Ooh.

He was getting pretty handsy with, um, Giselle.

Mm.


- As usual.


- [CHUCKLES]

Dirty old bugger.

Well Got to fire you.

Oh, mate.

I'll leave you to it, all right? Ray.

Ray.

Yeah? I don't want your money, mate.

[EXHALES]

KATE: Do you think how do I put this do you think there is a difference in the act of k*lling between when you were in the Army and
-and what you do now? Does
-does it feel any different? No.

No difference at all? No, k*lling's k*lling.

Mm.

You know, you get medals in the Army for when you k*ll people, but, you know, I don't get those anymore, but, you know Yeah.

I can't imagine hit men get medals.

Nah.

We get paid better though, so Yeah? No one tells you what to do now.

Yeah.

You know, if I want to do a job, I do it.

If I don't want to do a job, I don't.

You know, I can say no.


- Yes or no.


- Mm.

Do you ever feel sorry for any of your victims? Not really, no.


- [SNIFFS]


- Never? Why would I? Well, what about their families? What about 'em? Well, doesn't it ever bother you you know, the pain that you're causing the loved ones that are left behind, grieving for for the person that you've just m*rder*d? You know, I k*lled people when I was in the Army, you know? Nobody, you know They had families, so Yeah, sure, but I think you know, I think the difference is choice.

When you're in the Army, you
-you don't have a choice.

But here, you
-you do.

You've got a choice.


- You don't actually have to do this job.


- No, no, no,
- no, no, no, no, no.


- You could I mean, you could choose
- to do something different.


- No, no, no, no.

I chose to join the Army.

You know, I could say, like, somebody put a g*n to my head and said you got to join the army or, you know I had a choice.

That's
-that's what I decided to do.

I was gonna go over there and f*cking k*ll people,
- so
- Yeah, okay.

You got no problem with that.


- Okay.


- As soon as I come back here and I start doing the same thing, suddenly you're all, f*cking, I don't know, "high and mighty" about it.

Like, you know like I should feel bad about it or something.


- Should I feel bad about it?
- Uh, I'm
-I'm just asking a question.

Yeah, you're asking some questions.

Yeah.

It's the questions you're asking,
- you know what I mean?
- Well, okay, well, so, what about what about your daughter? I mean, you
-you know, from what you've told me, you really love her.

I'm sure she loves you.

Surely she'd be really, you know, devastated if something happened to you.


- Hey, my friend.


- Hi.

Get that one and a pack of John Kelsey's, friend.

Money, champ.

Thanks, mate.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Could've just had one of these, prez.

No, I don't smoke that.

What's wrong with them? It's all the chemicals, mate.

It tastes like sh*t.

[RAY COUGHS]

[SNIFFLES]

Oi.

[CHUCKLES]

What, are you stalking me, mate?
- Hey? How are you?
- Hey, good.

What you doing What the f*ck?! Jesus.

[GRUNTING]

Get him! Hold him, hold him, hold him.


- Got him.


- Hold him.


- VINNIE: Kev!
- I got him.


- [THUDDING]


- VINNIE: Kev! RAY: I got him.

Got him.

VINNIE: Kev! I got you.

RAY: Good? Let's get out of here.

Let's go, mate.


- VINNIE: Kev!
- [ENGINE STARTS]

So who's paying you? Your VP.

Alex? Mm
-hmm.

[SIGHS]

Jesus.

[CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

Uh, you got a smoke? Quit.

You quit? Good for you, mate.

I got some rollies in me pocket.

You good I get 'em out? Hey, go for it.

[VINNIE SIGHS]

They paying you all right? Yeah.

Mind me asking how much?
- $250.


- f*ck.

Jesus.

Yeah, well, you're good.

I'll give you that.

I never saw it coming.

Nothing personal.

Yeah, I know.

I'm surprised I've f*cking lived this long, to tell you the truth.

Mm.

I'm guessing if I was to try and buy you out, you'd just pocket the cash and k*ll me anyway.

Still got to get your $250.


- Mm
-hmm.


- [CHUCKLES]

It was weird, but I mean, I'd never sh*t any bloke before that.

And it's not like it is in the movies, right?
- It's different.


- Mm.

And this fellow, I remember, his legs went all sort of wobbly and sat down on the floor.

He just looked real f*cking tired, you know.

Just real tired.

He looked up at me, you know.

He sort of looked me right in the eye.

Just said, "f*ck, mate.

" Then he just [EXHALES]

That was it.

Lights went out of his eyes.

20 years, and that bloke still comes to me in my dreams.

Every time I see him, he just looks at me with this look, you know.

That same look.

Doesn't say anything, just just looks at me.

Scares the sh*t out of me.

You don't get that? Blokes you've knocked come to you in your dreams? Sometimes.

Doesn't bother you? [CHUCKLES]

Bothers the sh*t out of me.

Not enough to make you want to quit, though.

[CHUCKLES]

Every job's got its downside, man.

[ENGINE SHUTS OFF]

Come on, mate.

Right, eh? [GRUNTS]

Let him go, man.
