"Fucking daft." "You try explaining that to Dodd... when he walks in on Charlie banging her from behind... and slapping her ass on Sunday morning."

" It's not like there's no history there, is it?" " No, there's too much." "History, Harvey, is just oils on a canvas." "You own the paint, so you get to change your own picture." "Where the fuck did you get that?" "Dear Deidre." "Don't mean it's not true The worst thing about history, Harvey, is that people only tend to look at it through the tearful eyes of regret."

"Thanks for mentioning it." "Can I buy you a drink?" "I'm sure you can." "Will I drink it if you do is the question you should be asking." "Would you?" "No." "But maybe that's 'cause I just bought this one." "If you bought me another, it'd go flat, and the ice would melt before I had a chance to take a sip." "Or maybe, it's because I hate the very sight of you." " Do you?" " Maybe." "Can I sit down, wait till your glass is empty?" "See how the theory pans out?" "That depends." "On?" "What you want." "Shall I sit down?" "Don't you want to have sex with me?" "Well, it's been over a year, Harvey, and like you wanted to say, I do look good." "Or do you just want to talk about your feelings?"

"I'm considering a business proposition that were put to me by a lad on the inside." "Yeah, admit it, you already think I'm a dickhead." "The lad's a Dutch kid called Dirk." " [ Chuckling ]" " Dirk." "He'd already been inside seven months when I got there, and 11 left." " What were he in for?" " Possession." "He'd been running club nights back home in Holland since he were 17, decided to come here and try his luck at the same thing." "Why?" "Misguided romantic notions of England being the home of dance music." "His problem was, he didn't realize that Leeds ain't Amsterdam." "Too fucking right." "When the local police sussed... the reason his club was so popular were because the foreign manager... were flooding the dance floor with cut-price Dutch E's, they had a stroll down." "Oh, dear." "That's what his dad said." "Although his dad's an high court barrister, so he was bound to be a bit upset at the embarrassment." "However, he ain't disowned the boy." "He's offered to help him get started in a business, knowing how an ex-con is shafted for career prospects." " That's nice of him." " Those people are laid back, Dodd." "[ Chuckles ] His terms are..." "Dirk goes back to Holland, promises to stop being a twat, and finds a way to match his dad's investment, show him he's serious." " What's the business?" " Coffee shop." " [ Chuckles ]" " In the tourist center of Amsterdam." "Solid reputation, managing to maintain a good profit even now." "How much is it?" "He's accepted Dirk's offer of 110 grand English." "Bargain." "Offer's good for a month." " Where do you come into it?" " He's asked me to come in with him." "With money?" "Yeah, Dodd, with money." "What does he think your parents do?" "He knows I ain't got 55 grand." "Knows I can't get it on my own." "He's happy for me to bring my three best mates into the deal." " Oh, that's good of him." " There's still a problem." "What?" " We haven't got 50-odd grand either." " [ Chuckles ]" "No." "But Steven Roper does." "I don't think he's going to give you a loan, if I'm honest with you." "I don't give a fuck what he won't give me." "He owes me for a fucking year, and he'll pay me for that year." "[ Clatter ]" "You were never an idiot, Harvey." "So I'm going to assume there's some logic here." "Yeah, there is." "[ Harvey ] Maybe I should give you a little background." "Are you aware of the details of my case?" "You were released from prison six weeks ago, having served half of a two-year sentence... for possession of heroin with intent to supply." "First offense of any kind." "I can tell you with a straight face" "I've never supplied anything to anyone." "Only seen heroin once in my entire life." "What do you know about Steven Roper?" "He's not a very nice man." "He's done time for assault and robbery, but that was some time ago, because he is now a legitimate businessman running an industrial security firm... out of the Rise Estate." "However, it has been speculated that he's involved in drug trafficking." "[ Harvey ] Speculated?" "We haven't been able to build a solid enough case against him." " Why do you think that is?" " Maybe he's a lot smarter... than we'd like to give a two-bob thug credit for." "Steven Roper employs a well-considered set of diversionary tactics." " You can't seem to counter them." " Diversionary tactics?" "There's a lofty title-- nothing like giving it credence." "The money's coming in, and you can't seem to counter it." "All right, Harvey, I'm listening." "Why don't you tell me about Steven Roper's diversionary tactics?" "You're a detective, Inspector." "I'm sure you're familiar with them." "I'm old, forgetful." "Why don't you jog me memory?" "Okay." "Step 1:" "The controlling influence of fear." "If you have built a consortium of commission-based contraband vendors, you run the risk of being name-dropped to the police... if those in your charge be faced with incarceration." "Also, there are those who may wish to make money on your behalf... and then forget to pay their dues, of which examples must be made." "While there are guns, their use brings unwanted police attention." "This being the case, the sensible criminal maintains a fearsome reputation... with good old-fashioned hard graft." "Step 2:" "Evading detection." "Though the clandestine art of surveillance exemplified by the police... owes little to the techniques employed by government agents in acts of espionage, their constant presence still requires creative vigilance." "The trick is to keep the gear moving from place to place... so that even if the law tracks its whereabouts, it's long gone before they can do anything about it." "Of course, police incompetence can't take all the blame." "[ Tires Screech ] After all, the drug squad must be short staffed, what with all the traffic violations requiring their manpower." "Step 3:" "Building a case for citizen harassment." " [ Beeping ] - [ Ringing ]" "You lot like nothing more than to have someone else do your job for you, which is why you are such big fans of the telephone tip-off." "If the drug squad receive a call from a concerned citizen... giving details of a drug cache at a residence in a problem area, they will generally act on the information." "[ Man ] Police!" "[ Shouting ]" "Of course, the trick is to make the anonymous phone call yourself... after you have made sure there is nothing even resembling an aspirin on the property." "So you can laugh as you watch the boys in blue... sweat as they tear apart your house to no avail." "[ Shouting, Indistinct ]" "Why are you so fucking worried?" "It's fucking bollocks!" "When they finally call off the search, your house will be in such a state... as to warrant a generous compensation payment from the taxpayer, amid claims that your reputation has been unfairly tainted." "Repeat this procedure four times over a 12-month period... and you can rest assured that even the fire brigade wouldn't dare enter your property... if the whole fucking street were ablaze." "Step 4:" "Throw the dog a bone." "This is where I come in." "The drug squad needs to fill a certain quota of arrests and seized quantities... to prove it's keeping the streets of England... as clean as the Armitage Shanks in Buckingham Palace." "By the same token, the criminal needs the drug squad... to have the inclination to continue helping them perpetrate Step 3, so, every now and then, a big chimp will stitch up a little monkey." "I'm the monkey." "Steven Roper was the big chimp." "In this particular example of the successful execution of Step 4," "I came home from a night on the piss to find my flat had been broken into." "A quick look around told me two things:" "One, there were no burglars in the flat." "Two, the stupid fuckers hadn't stolen anything when they had been." "I didn't see what were coming." "In my defense, I were fucking rat-assed." "It being January I was also cold, so I closed the door." "Police!" "Police!" "Put the phone down!" "Put it down!" "Acting on an anonymous tip-off, your boys came flying into the house, armed with a search warrant." "It took them about 30 seconds to find the 200 grams of heroin..." "I had so cleverly hidden underneath the TV Guide on the desk." "[ Chattering ]" "It took the jury even less time to find me guilty of the charge, as the only evidence to back up my claim that someone had broken into the flat... and planted the drugs had been destroyed by the police battering ram." "No further interest were taken into my plight." "Well, there is certainly authenticity to what you're saying." "If you're familiar with the methods, why don't you do something?" "Because they work, like you said." "I've got to wonder how a decent, upstanding citizen like yourself... understands the intricacies of small-time drug trafficking." "It's not rocket science." "No, it's easy money." "That's why you do it." "I'm not getting the year back either way." "Just trying to paint a better picture." "Fair enough." "Go on." "Where was I?" "I don't give a fuck what he won't give me." "He owes me for a fucking year, and he'll pay me for that year." "You were never an idiot, Harvey." "So I'm going to assume there's some logic here." "Yeah, there is." "[ Prison Buzzer Buzzes ]" "Got their heads up their ass, mate, so they can stay low on the radar." "[ Harvey ] I never had much to say to any other inmates." "That don't mean my ear weren't constantly bent in the favor of prison pastimes." "Believe me, if these clowns knew the half of it," "I'd be doing 20 easy." "[ Harvey ] Giving it the big "I am."" "[ Man ] Their problem is, they forget who you are." "Think you're old, think you're a joke." "[ Harvey ] In prison, it was all you hear night and day." "You get sly enough to learn to block it out." "[ Man ] Soon stopped smiling when he saw the fucking sawed-off." "Soon lost his heart as well." "[ Harvey ] Although I don't think they care if you're listening anyway." "I drop off all over the north." "Even the biggest twats from the smallest two-rip town... would have a wedge the size of your mother's ass." "Take this one guy from this filthy nowhere estate over yonder." "The Rise, I think they call it." "[ Harvey ] Of course you prick up your ears when you get wind of something interesting." "I'd drop a key off to this twat called Steve, first Monday of every month." "Flash bastard, would open this big green safe, and he'd take the cash from a pile that high like it was pocket change." "Pass it over with a wink and a "what the fuck are you smiling at?"" "Now, he always had a four-strong team around him, but you pull the right tool at the right time, and you can liberate the content of his belongings, smart as you like." "[ Dempsey ] Great." "Roper keeps his money in a safe." "The man lives in that office since he got into security." "I think he'd notice us popping in, trying to hacksaw it open." "Safe can't be in his office." "The Scouser said he used a meat-delivery van as his cover, so he'd only drop at suitable places-- restaurants or big pubs that serve food." "No, the only place round here that fits the description... is the Rise Club." "Okay." "The club makes sense as a dropping point." "But why would Roper leave his money in there, not in his own office?" "He doesn't own the club." "Albert's in his pocket, and it puts some distance between him and his money... in case he ever gets his collar felt." "I suppose his firm looks after the club, so he thinks it's safe there as in his own office." "Even more so." "According to this bloke, the safe's in a basement office with no windows, one entrance, and the door's secured like a bank vault." "How much are we talking there?" "At least 60 grand." " [ Dempsey ] Tiger Woods without the birds." " [ Charlie ] Fuck off." "[ Dodd ] How do you know the Scouser ain't just talkin' out of his ass?" "[ Harvey ] Be a good guess if he just made it all up." "But you don't know for sure?" "No, but I'll find out." "How?" "[ Dempsey ] It's the first Monday of March next week." "If the meat van makes a delivery to the pub, we'll know it's sound." "We can stake out the pub from the flat." "No, we'll need more than that." "The van turns up, all it will prove is it used to be a meat delivery van." "We need to get in the office, see if there's a green safe there." "If there is, we'll know he wasn't lying, be ours for the taking." "Jesus Christ." "Are you lot taking the piss?" "Look, Harvey." "I know Roper fucked you right up the ass." "But for Christ's sake, drug money?" "Safe cracking?" "Fuck off." "Why dismiss it straight off?" "Because we're not safe-crackers or cat burglars, are we?" "Or coffee shop owners, for that matter." "Harvey's not a smack dealer, but he did time for it." "Somebody does this stuff, so it can be done." "Why can't we be the ones to do it?" "Because we won't know where to fucking start." "It's not the type of thing you want to fuck up, is it?" "Come on, Charlie." "We're just talking here." "No, we're not." "We're serious." " What?" "Just pack up and piss off abroad just like that?" " Yeah." "And you're not taking the piss?" " You can come back and visit." " Oh, come on." "This is our home, mate." "I know." "[ Stammers ] I'll understand if you don't want to do it." "But if we do, we've got a share in a proper business." "All in it together." "It'll mean a new start for everyone." "But on the upside, it will mean a new start for everyone." "Fuckin' hell, Dempsey." "An hour ago, you were the sort of man who were content with life." "Now you're talking about pulling off some crackpot robbery and escaping around the world?" "Skint old birds knocking on the door at the crack of dawn looking for cheap fags... and a fortnightly trip down to the Joke Shop." "Lovely." "I'll-- I'll take another 10 years, please." "Bollocks." "Talkin' about your fuckin'-- So what?" "You're so in love with stacking crates in that freezer... two nights a week on agency pay, not willing to consider your options?" "That's just temporary, you fucking prick." "I'm a qualified fucking welder, and when it picks back up and the factory's reopened" "There'll be machines turning in there before your factory's reopened!" "Go fuck yourself, Demps!" "At least I've got a fucking trade!" "And turn your nose up at me?" "I've worked hard for what I've got." "What was it you got?" "A C.S.C.S. card, a broken promise and a chip on your fucking shoulder!" "Such a fucking prick!" "Can't even start about you, you fucking ponce!" "All I'm saying is, wouldn't you rather pack it all in and go and sit in a nice, warm café, watching the world go by, chatting to tourists-- Oh, fuck off." "[ Dodd ] It's a bit of a pipe dream in all fairness, Harvey." "What if it's not?" "What if the money is in that safe?" "It's our chance to have something of our own." "I'm not saying it's not worth a look." "And if it looks good?" "I don't know." " Think about doing it." " [ Charlie Scoffs ]" "Charlie?" "You lot are off your fucking heads!" "Hey." "Hey, come on, Charlie." "[ Harvey ] Leave him, mate, He's got to make up his own mind." "[ Dodd ] So, what do we do now?" "[ Dempsey ] Wait till Monday." "Harvey." "Not going to say hello?" "I'm not going anywhere, so you may as well look at me." "Still handsome." "Thought maybe you'd have a few scars now." "Only the kind you can't see." " How are you, Steve?" " Steven." "Been worse." "Yourself?" "Not too bad." "Well, it's been fun catching up." "I don't want to have to worry about you, Harvey." "Your concern moves me." "Don't get fucking smart." "I get the impression you blame me for that spot of bother you got yourself into last year." "That's fine." "Believe what you like." "But bear in mind, I don't react well when I feel threatened." "Is that why you're always such an asshole?" "Have that one." "Stay where you are." "Tell me, is it hard living in a constant state of fear?" "Fucking flying if you think I'm scared of you." "No, you're not scared of me." "You're scared if you loosen your grip on what's yours for even a second, someone's going to come along and take it all away." "Is that right?" "Yeah." "And you know what?" "What?" "You fucking should be." "[ Dodd ] Come on." "Oh" " No!" "Fuck!" "I'll have you." "It's not much fun for me listening to you play on that thing, all right?"

"This isn't the same as an alarm control box... which are housed inside the building for obvious reasons, so we couldn't shut it down."

"Now, I'm going to have to ask you a few questions, Harvey, straighten out a couple of details." "Understood?" "You say the alarm sounded... and 30 seconds later... you were stood in front of Roper outside the club?" "Yeah, yeah, that's about right." "Right." "Now, when the alarm is triggered in a place like the Rise Club, it sends a message to the security firm that covers it-- in this case, Steven Roper Securities." "The alarm was triggered at approximately 11:15." "Emergency services received a call from a local resident at 11:16, stating that the alarm at the club was active and had been for about a minute." "Our first officer arrived at the scene at 11:19, by which time the altercation between yourself and Mr. Roper had taken place." "Do you see what I'm getting at?" "No." "Right." "Now, if Steven Roper was in his office... on the other side of the estate, monitoring the security terminal that indicated the break-in at the club, he would've had four minutes to get across the estate, on foot," "confront you, slap you around a bit, get knocked unconscious and wait for the police." "It's not really possible, is it?" "No." "No, I suppose it's not." "So how long had you been with Roper before the police arrived?" "Uh, a few minutes." "I mean-- [ Stammers ]" "I-I turned up at the door and it had already been busted." "Roper showed up." "We had an altercation." "He would've killed me." "All right." "He would've fucking killed me." "All right." "We'll get to that later." "But what I want to know is what Roper was doing at the club before the alarm was triggered, when it was closed for business and you were trying to rob it." " Mere coincidence?" " I don't know." "Yeah." "Maybe." "I don't believe in coincidence." "Maybe he were trying to rob it himself." "Why would he do that if he owns the firm that protects the place?" "A-An insurance job?" "I don't know." "Maybe him and Albert had the same idea as us" " These three friends of yours-- give me their names." " No, I can't do that." "Why not?" "They can't be very good friends... if they were gonna leave you there twisting in the wind." "They're not criminals." "I shouldn't have got them involved." "You're probably right, given the "coincidence" we were talking about." "Now, I'd assume a smart lad like you wouldn't have... announced your intentions to rob Steven Roper all over town, so I also assume the only people who knew about this were you, your three friends and your estranged other half." "Now, you've got to be asking yourself, Harvey." "You've got to be!" "Which one sold you out?" " No one sold me out." " You really believe it was coincidence?" "Yeah." "It's easier than believing it wasn't." "Right." "Well, let's stick with that pretense." "But if I can speak to them, they might be able to get you out of... at least some of the mess that you're in." "I'm not giving you their names." "You're gonna make life very difficult for yourself if you don't, Harvey." "The Rise Club suffered a break-in tonight." "We're gonna have to charge you with breaking and entering, theft, A.B.H., and possibly even worse." "You've spent the entire night incriminating yourself, Harvey." "Incriminating myself as what?" "Eh?" "I didn't steal anything." "Roper was at the club." "Instead of taking his money and disappearing into the night, I got the shit kicked out of me," " got dragged down here and my mates ran away." " [ Knocking ]" "D.I. West, can I have a quick word?" "For the benefit of the tape, Sergeant Kendon has just entered the room." "I am pausing the interview at 0130 hours." "Excuse me." "[ Door Closes ]" "So?" "What you got?" "I took Albert Redford round the club... in order to take a full account of any damages or missing effects." "Right." "So what's the verdict?" "Tills along the bar have been broken into and emptied of a decent amount of cash, but nothing else was taken." "Not even a bottle of Grouse from the shelves." "What about the offices?" "Anything taken from the offices?" "No." "Albert was keen to take a look, but nothing doing." "Bolted shut like a bomb shelter." "A few quid from the tills." "Not exactly Brinks-Mat, is it?" "[ Sighs ]" "Right, well-- [ Chuckles ]" "I guess that's that then." "Not quite." "You haven't heard the interesting part yet." "We found the money." "[ Knocking ]" "[ Door Closes ]" "[ Grunts ]" "[ Sniffs ]" "Is there anything else you'd like to tell me?" "No." "I've told you everything." "Now, you've noticed that the tape is switched off?" "Off the record, just between the three of us, anything else you'd like to say?" "No." "I've told you everything." "Are you gonna charge me, or" " It appears it's your lucky night." " My lucky night?" "The Rise Club was broken into tonight, as you already know." "Money within the region of £1,200... was stolen from the tills in the bar, which you don't know." "Officers have recovered the money from the premises of Steven Roper Securities." "What?" "Steve Roper's fingerprints were found on several of the notes, and alongside the money officers found something else-- a cellophane package containing a powder, brown in color, which our friends in the relevant department tell me is heroin." "Five perfect fingerprints have been recovered from that package... also belonging to Steven Roper." "We've also heard from the hospital." "He's still unconscious." "His face is a mess, but he's stable." "Now, charges will follow for you, Harvey." "A decent prosecutor will have a lot of questions... about the force you used against Roper, but for now I'm content to state for the record... that I believe self-defense is what your actions constituted." "Now, being that the evidence is painting the picture that we're currently seeing," "I also believe it would not suit the interests of the C.P.S.... to pursue any further charges against you... concerning the Rise Club break-in." "Where does that leave us?" "Well, that leaves us with conspiracy to commit a crime." "Conspiracy?" "Wh" "Well, conspiracy's a funny thing." "[ Chuckles ]" "Some might call it jailing people for thought crime." "And you?" "Prosecuting a young man for ballsing up breaking into a working man's club... would be an embarrassment of the court's time." "So where does that leave us?" "Well, for now you're free to go." "Right now?" "Yes." "Yes." "Just gotta process a few forms and you'll be on your way." "Is it two or four?" "Or five?" "I-I forget." "Sunday league quarter finals, there was a lad who looked a lot like you... put two away against Everton in the second half." "We lost that game though." "Yeah." "It was a good effort though." "It's a pity he was let down by his team." "[ Door Opens ]" "All right, thank you." "I'll follow you." "When Roper wakes up and we charge him, his brief will push for bail." "They'll set it high, but he will have the money." "Understand?" "Yeah." "Won't be long." "Right then, Mr. Miller." "You're free to go." "P.C.

"But what's the point in doing that when you can sit down, listen, and not have to break a sweat?" "Go on." "Sit down." "Comfortable?" "Good." "Now, I feel I shortchanged you earlier."

"But if you do, you'd better swing hard, because if I get back up, my face, as I bury yours into the ground, will be the last thing you ever see." "You're out of your fucking league!"
