The Business

You think I'm an idiot, don't you? Well, you are the idiot.
You're a lying, cheating, low-life slob.
And I've had just about as much as I can take.
So if you so much as move I will blast a hole in your head big enough to put a ??? orange inside.
If you love me, you'll do it.
You think he's dead? Yes.
That's what I think.
It's like a nightmare.
I wish it were a nightmare.
But it's not.
We're lucky to still have this body bag.
We were going to sell it down book market.
So you're gonna report this thing? Oh yeah, definitely.
And then in a minute I'll arrest meself.
Of course I'm not gonna report it.
I may be a policeman, but I'm not an idiot.
What are we gonna do with this his corpse? We can't flock that on a book market! Don't worry.
I'll take it to the mortuary and then mislabel it.
It'll disappear in the system for years.
Christ! Moz and Jenny have only been in back Salford a few hours! A few hours earlier.
Suppose you've heard the news.
How could I have heard the news, we've been out of the country? - Is it good news or is it bad news? - It's just news really.
- You'll die when I tell you.
- Die in a good way or die in a bad way? - In a good way.
- I don't mind how I die.
Just tell us.
That mate of yours.
The copper.
He's moved into your old flat.
- I know that.
- And now your ex and the baby have moved back in.
- I know that.
- And now she's dealing hash and weed.
I didn't know that.
- Psycho Paul.
Cartoon Head.
- Alright, Nicki.
- Got my cash? - Just only 400 pounds.
- Just that then? - Couldn't sell the lap? Understandable, it's not really.
You want a smoke? Afghani black.
25 eighths.
You know the prices, you know the people.
Go sell it.
- And remember.
ABC.
- Always Be Closing.
- What about the lab? - That's your winter bonus, lads! Psycho Paul is happy with that.
Cuppa coffee and a chocky chip.
Nicely-nicely! She's got it well organised.
Could be heading for business woman of the year.
When I think of 100 times she used to get me!.
.
Nicki a dealer! It's like Chewbacca setting up as a speech therapist! That's almost as shocking as Nicki dealing! - Jenny, Nicki is dealing.
- Well, that's even weirder! Exactly! Moz! What you doing here? - We've come back! - But you can't come back! - Well, we have.
- We're as back as it gets.
But it's against the law! What's your certain interest in the law? Get inside.
Fella, you're wanted for skipping country whilst on bail! Not to mention probable heroin dealing conviction.
You're Salford's biggest undesirable! - That's what is says on me business cards.
- We've come back! - You can't come back! - We've already finished arriving.
Well I'm definitely here.
It's good to see you both.
Lovely to see you.
How did you get back into country? Still got our replacement passports.
Never had a problem with them.
- You're officially talking to Roger Muchmore.
- And I am Catherine Pimlet.
Or is is Sharon Pimlet? Oh, it don't matter.
I always check who I am before I enter a new country.
Aren't you worried about getting picked up by this lot? What do you mean, 'this lot'? Every copper is completely different, that's why we have different numbers.
But she's right.
Bit of a gamble coming back, fella.
- What made you risk it? - Risk it? - I spent me last euro in Mexico.
- Wow, what's it like? It's a bit like a pound coin.
No.
I meant, what's Mexico like? She wouldn't know.
She's not been.
Oh.
So where was it them blokes were wearing sombreros? Ibiza.
They were accountants from Bolton.
No wonder I could not understand what they were saying.
We've come back 'cos Cartoon Head owes me 2 grand.
One time when I were flush I was stupid enough to invest into one of his 'get rich quick' schemes.
Lucky you've kept the old machine in good working order.
Would have broke me heart if she ??? Been a lot of changes - Has there? - Nah.
So when are you leaving? - Can be??? - Hey, I'm risking me badge just sitting talking to you.
So you and Nicki are sticking it out then? What do you mean, sticking it out? We're a couple, if that's what you mean.
Soz.
Of course not.
Obviously, it's been little blips.
- You never listen! - ???? We've also had a lot of fun.
Now then.
I'm going to pour this runny honey between my legs.
And you are going to spend the next half hour eating it all up.
That's lime pickle.
Right.
She's a woman of many moods.
Most of them ??? Tell you what though.
She really turned the dealing business round.
Has she? Well, I reckon hash dealing is pretty much recession-proof.
??? progress outside ??? nursery.
Ooh.
Sounds like an easy one.
Might go for that.
Should show me face really.
K-23.
I'm on me way as of immediately.
Yeah, I thought that one had your name on it.
Alright.

??? - Nice to see you again.
- And this is Nathaniel.
Isn't he scrummy? - Alright.

Not the passage way that gets the most use though.
Not in front of the children.
- So, are you all going to counselling or anything? The world is my counsellor.
I talk to everybody about my problems.
All the time.
Marvellous.

- I'm not! - What are you studying? - Just dentistry.
- Oh.

I got all excited about the post-punk bit.
So what, you're just gonna learn how to do fillings and shit? What's a ??? in being a dentist? My dentist got a Mercedes and a big afro.
