"But Fontaine ain't exactly hiring, is he?" "All right, son?" "Dom, Dom Hemingway." "(CHUCKLES)" " I didn't think I'd recognise you..." "(DOM CHUCKLES)" "Seeing as I was barely a teenager and everything." " That's right." " But I did." "I'm proud of myself." "(GRUNTS)" "Fucking hell." "Why did you kill my cat, Dom?" "(CHUCKLES)" "You're gonna bring that up after all these years?" "I am." "What did that cat ever do to you?" "It was your father's cat, Les." "That was your father's cat." "He was competition." "No matter." "I loved that cat." "That cat was my friend." "Sorry, OK?" "I'm sorry." "I bet you are." "But you disrespected my cat and I can't forgive that." "I was just a little boy, you know." "Well, I'm ready to put the past to rest, huh?" "Let bygones be bygones." "Thought maybe we could do some business together." "You're a killer of cats, Dom, and I want nothing to do with you." "I said I was sorry." "I know you're sorry, but that don't bring Bernard back to life." "See, that's what I'm talking about." "Who calls their cat Bernard?" "'Course I killed your fucking cat." "Come on." "Damn it." "Come on!" "You know I'm good at what I do." "Your father wanted me to work for him." "But you never said yes, Dom." "You never said yes." "I worked for Mr Fontaine." "I couldn't say yes." "You could have, but you didn't." " I didn't cos I couldn't." " You couldn't cos you wouldn't." "I wouldn't cos I couldn't." "That's why I didn't." "Fuck you!" "Couldn't, wouldn't, shouldn't." "(PANTING)" "I got the magic fingers." "You know that, I always did." "You must remember that." "Magic fingers, Lestor." "You could use that." "Your business could use that." "I run clubs, Dom." "(LAUGHS)" "Bullshit, Lestor." "You know what you do." "It's no secret." "It's your family business." "See, there's a part of me that wants to put you in the trunk of my sister's Prius, drive you up to Canvey Island and bury you up to your thick fucking neck, cover your fat fucking face in hamburger patties" "and let the creatures of the night eat you to death while I watch." "That's what I want, you eaten to death bite by fucking bite, peck by fucking peck and fang by motherfucking fang." "See, I heard Belly retired and his replacement's disappointing." "So you come to the son of the man you was at war with?" "He was competition." "You come to the little boy whose pussy cat you murdered?" "You need me, Lestor." "You're an old man, Dom." "You should retire, too." "I meant to." "Yeah, I bet you did." "(PANTING)" "It's not like the old days, Dom." "They've got electronics now." "A safe's a safe." "Until you can't open it." "Come by my club tonight at 11:00." "S ugarfix" "I have a new electronic safe there." "If you can open it in 10 minutes, you can come and work for me, bygones be bygones." "I'll have plenty of solid business for you." "However, if you can't open it," "I'm gonna chop off your tiny dick and use it as a doorjamb." "It's your call, Dom." "Show up or not." "Open the safe or not." "Piss standing up again or not." "Those are your options." "Those are your choices." "(GRUNTS)" "And that was for Bernard." " I thought that's what the last one was for." " Nah, nah, nah." "That was for my daddy." "This one is for Bernard." "He was a good fucking cat and didn't deserve your ugly face to be the last thing he saw." "Thanks, Jeanie." "Are you sure you should be drinking like this, Dom?" "I'm good, Mum." "I'm serious." "You've got to open a safe later and you haven't opened one in 12 years." "I'm steady as a trapeze artist's cunt." " Let me see your hand." " What?" "Your hand." "I want to see if you're really steady." "Look at your own hand, Dickie, if you haven't lost it again." "(SNIGGERS)" "Seriously, put out your hand, Dom." "Let me see it." "Fucker." "I could do surgery with this hand, operate on your caper-sized brain, finger a nun from five feet away." "That safe don't scare me." "Lestor McGreevy don't scare me." "Nothing scares me." "Well, you're scaring me, that much is true." "I'm good." "You're penniless, homeless." "You're fast on your way to being pissed." "Your wank's on the line and you haven't opened a safe in 12 years, and not an electronic one, not ever." "Aren't you the Easter Bunny, hopping around, spreading good cheer wherever you go?" "I'm just stating what I'm stating." " Stop stating what you're stating." " I'm not gonna stop stating it." "I'll state what I want to state in whatever state I want to." "State it again, I'll knock your teeth out." "Knock my teeth out, I'll cut your ear off." "Cut my ear off, I'll carve your eye out with my big toe." " Fuck you." " Fuck you." "Fuck you." "You think I ain't gonna be able to do this?" "Me, Dom Hemingway?" "Think I can't do this?" "There hasn't been a safe I ain't been able to open, ever." "When I was four months old, I could open a safe from my fucking pram." "I'm just saying." "Don't say nothing." "I'm gonna do this, Dickie." "I'm gonna do this." "I got no other choice." "(J' Dubstep)" "State of the art." "Had it installed four months ago." " Made in Japan." " I'm big in Japan." "You have 10 minutes." "Do you want me to start the timing now?" "Or do you want to say a little prayer for your friend Tiny first?" "I just want another pint." "Is that OK?" "Another drink before we start." "Have all the beer you want, Dom." "Right, let's get started." "LESTOR:" "Clock says 11:35." "It means you have until 11:45." "Easy-peasy lemon squeezy." "What the fuck is that?" "Equipment." "Bloody hell!" "Fuck you and fuck your cat." "I said, open my safe, not destroy my office." "Fuck your office, fuck you, fuck your father and fuck your cat." "In nine minutes your balls are becoming trinkets." "Fuck your trinkets, fuck your cat, fuck your father, fuck your office and fuck you!" "(PANTING)" "Not sure what you can do in the time you have left, except maybe have a heart attack." "I got to do a piss." " What?" " Piss." "I got to." "I'm not stopping the clock." "'Course you aren't." "You're pond scum, Lestor." "Garbage, refuse." "Your father was a class act compared to you." "You're shit on my shoe." "You're a cunt in gold chains." "A misery in size 10 Adidas." "Now, where's your fucking toilet?" " Who designed this place, anyway?" " I did, actually." "It's like a brothel by way of Elton John." "Stick to thieving and nepotism." "(PEEING)" "What are you looking at?" "Five minutes left, Dom." "Might be the last time you piss standing up." "I assume the cables in the back of the safe are attached to some security company." "Yes." "They promised a five-minute response." "I promised not to come in your sister's mouth." "We all make promises we can't keep." "(BOTH LAUGHING)" "Don't worry, I'm not gonna do anything to Lestor, as tempting as that may be." "Four minutes, or less if security comes." "The fastest fingers guy I ever saw took 10, 12 minutes with a safe like this, and he had state-of-the-art equipment with him." " I ain't like most finger guys." " No, you're not." " You're old." " I'm old-school." "Old, old-school, same thing." "I got magic fingers, Lestor." "I told you." "So?" "So..." "Whoa!" "Yeah, yeah..." " What the hell are you doing, man?" " Fuck you." "You trying to screw the safe, Dom, or are you trying to impregnate it?" "Do you want me to get you guys a room?" "(GRUNTS)" "Seriously, what the hell are you doing, man?" "I'm winning the bet." "DICKIE:" "Japs sold you a cheap safe and he's gonna win because of it." "It wasn't fucking cheap." " Then you got ripped off, Lestor." "(DOM LAUGHING)" "Fucking ripped off." "Ha, ha, ha!" "So what's he trying to do, Dickie?" "Most safes, the cheap ones at least, like yours, if you bounce them enough, there's a moment when the pins are shaken and not lined up, even the electronic ones." "If you're pulling the handle at that moment, it opens." "Well, nothing's happening here except Dom getting a fucking hernia." "And you've only got two..." "No, one minute and 55 seconds left." "J' God save" "J' The Queen J'" "Pints are on me!" "And that, my friends, is how you open a safe." "You did it, Dom." "You right did it." "I knew I would." "I told you I would." "I knew I'd beat this arsehole at his own game and prove to him what the world already knows, that Dom Hemingway is the greatest safe cracker known to mankind." "That I am a legend, a myth." "A glorious tale to be handed down from generation to generation." "I am impressed, Dom, I must say." "Fucking right, Lestor, Chestor," "Chestor the molester, Uncle Fester." "And only 52 seconds left." "Exactly, Fester the fucking court jester." "I won the bet." "You owe me work." "Big-paying work." "Actually, you didn't win the bet." "What are you talking about?" "I'm saying, in 30 seconds I'm cutting Little Dom off." "I opened your safe." "You opened a safe." "But my safe, my safe is this." "You have eight seconds to open it, seven..." " That ain't fair." " Fuck fair, it's the bet." "Five, four, three, two, one." "(MIMES BUZZER)" "Poor Dom Hemingway." "Poor, poor Dom Hemingway." "All that time in prison, only to come out and be humiliated by the son of the man he always hated." "You're not really gonna do what you're saying, Lestor?" "If I were you, I'd keep quiet, Dickie." "You know I'll kill you too and no one will give a shit." " Now, take off your trousers." " Come on." " Lestor." " I'm serious." "Aw, fuck!" "A deal's a deal, a bet's a bet and a dick doorstop is a dick doorstop." "DOM:" "Lestor, come on." "I hate you, Dom." "I always have." "You killed Bernard." "You can't cut off my dick because of a fucking cat." " Yes, I can." " No, you can't." "OK, no, I can't, you're right, but I can cut it off cos you said you could open my safe in 10 minutes and you didn't." " You rigged the bet." " Semantics." " I played by the rules." " People are dirty, Dom." "You should know that." "But I played by the rules." "That's your problem." "You're a fucking criminal." "Criminals don't have rules." "There's a code of ethics." "There is!" "And where did that code get you?" "12 years alone, a dead wife and a daughter who hates you." "You don't know!" "Everyone knows." "(PANTING)" "You played by the rules in jail and you got screwed when you got out." "You played by the rules here and you got screwed here." "You're a dumb criminal, Dom." "A dumb man." "(DRAWS KNIFE)" "Now take off your trousers." "(EXHALES)" "Lestor." "Now." "(PING PONG IN THE BACKGROUND)" "Now!" "(UNBUCKLES)" "(UNZIPS)" "(DOOR OPENS)" " Safe security." "U' Dance)" " I'll meet you at the place near the place" " Right." "(CHUCKLES)" "You can't fucking catch me." "(LAUGHS)" "(PANTING)" "Oh, fu..." "Oh, fuck..." "Oh, fuck..." "(WOMAN CHUCKLING)" "(LAUGHS)" "Hey, you lot need a back-up singer, I am available." "What do you want, then?" "What?" "Nothing." "I just wanna say hello." "You look like shit, but at least you're standing up." "That's an improvement." "Yeah, I got that going." "Tell me something, Dom." "You know how old I was when you went away?" "Can your fogged-up, whisky-soaked brain go back that far?" "Yeah, 'course." "I remember being in my room and hearing mum yelling at you when you left Do you remember that?" "She was just pleading, begging with you to strike a deal." "If you'd have testified, you'd have got two, maybe three years." "You'd have been out before I was 13, before mum got sick, before mum died." "I wanna make up for lost time." "That's why I'm here." "I don't." "Come on, now." "I made a mistake." "I'm a fucker and I'm a failure." "Oh, Dom, I'm leaving." "I have to go." "I..." "I don't want you coming round here any more." "I don't want you coming round my house or my son, OK?" "I don't want to see you." "You have done very little for me in my life, Dom." "Please, just do that." "It's Dad." "It's Dad." "It's not Dom." "Evie." "What, Dom?" "(CLEARS THROAT) I'm gonna go and see your mum's grave tomorrow morning." "I wondered if you wanted to come." "I ain't seen it yet." "What, the grave Sandy Butterfield paid for, the guy you beat the shit out of?" "Yeah, that one." "I thought it would be nice if we went together." "You could bring your boy." "You know what would have been nice?" "Having a real father." "But I didn't get one, Dom." "I only got 31°"" "Melody." "Wait!" "(HORN HONKING)" "Wait!" "Melody!" "Melody!" "(PANTING)" "You said I'd have good luck." "Dom Hemingway." "I was so worried about you." "But you're OK." "No, I'm not..." "I'm not doing very well, actually." "You said I'd have good luck." "I've had nothing but shitty luck." "I'm so sorry to hear that, Dom." "If I hadn't stopped and helped you," "I'd have had time to save my money from being stolen." "MELODY:" "But you saved my life." "You stopped to save my life." " I know." " You did the right thing." "Not everyone would, but you did." "I told you the good luck would come when you really need it." "Well, I really need it." " Then it will be." " How?" "What do you want most in the world?" "My fucking money!" " That's what you want most?" " Yes." " You sure?" " Yes!" " Really?" " Yes." "No." "I want her to talk to me." "Forgive me." "My daughter." "That seems a little better." "Yeah, well..." "Just by picking her, you've already shown that the pendulum of luck is swinging your way." "What the hell does that mean?" "Love is what you make, Dom." "DOM:" "Oh, Keethy." "I fucked up, didn't I?" "And not one of my minor Dom fuck-ups." "Like spending all our money down the pub with Dickie." "Going out to a football match and staying away a week." "Burning down that housing estate in Leeds by accident." "(CHUCKLES)" "No." "I fucked up royally." "I didn't get to say goodbye to you." "I never got to say goodbye and kiss you goodbye, my sweet girl." "Now all I got is this dirt, fucking grass and dirt in me hands, and not your sweet face." "Your sweet, beautiful face." "(SOBS)" "I was a stupid fool." "I lost you." "I lost out on our Evelyn's childhood." "I lost the two most important things in my life." "And now you're gone and our Evie she hates me." "Oh, Keethy..." "Beautiful, sweet Keethy." "My life." "My heart." "I'm gonna try and make things better with Evelyn." "I really am." "She hates me now but I'll wear her down, bit by bit." "Day by day." "Hour by hour, I'll seduce her with my kindness." "I'll blanket her in warmth and security." "I'll confound her with my decency." "She'll resist my charms for only so long." "After all, I'm Dom Hemingway." "I'm Dom Hemingway." "I'm yourDom." "(RUSTLING)" "Come here." "Sit down." "Give us your hand." "That's your grandmother." "Keethy, or Katherine." "She never much liked the dark ones, but I think she'd have really liked you." "I didn't think you'd come." "Couldn't well take the bus himself, could he?" "(CHUCKLES)" "Can I walk with you a bit?" "In silence, I promise." "Total silence, like..." "Like a mime." "Like an old lady who lives in an attic on her own and stuffs her cats after they died." "Not today." "Someday, then, eh, maybe?" "You can walk Jawara to school on Monday morning if you like." "If you can wake up that early." "Don't get too pissed the night before." "Right, then." "Well, I'll be the Vatican's cunt." "I'll see you later." "Right, let's go in." "(PAOLINA CHUCKLES)" "(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)" "Paolina!" "Hello, darling." "Fancy seeing you here in London." "Why didn't you call me?" "We could have gone out for a drink, had a tone-deaf sing-along to some old records." "Paolina, who is this?" "I don't know who this man is." "Oh... (LAUGHS)" "I'll tell you who I am." "I'm the fucker who'll tear your nose off with my teeth." "I'm the fucker who will gut you with a dull cheese knife and sing Gilbert and Sullivan while I do it." "I'm the fucker who'll dump your dead body in a freezing cold lake and watch you sink to the bottom like so much shit." "I am that fucker." "That's the fucker who I am." "And if you say one word when I remove my hand," "I'll do all that to you right now." "You say one word and you'll be as useless as a dried-up, fetid condom after bad sex." "Do I make myself clear?" "Do my words translate to you?" "If you understand my words, nod." "That's good." "After much heartbreak and ruin, the pendulum of luck has finally swung back to Dom Hemingway." "And I intend to enjoy each moment of its fickle pleasure, whether it lasts for a minute, a day or a lifetime."
