You need to forget about Lizzie.
Your client's got more serious problems.
MIT investigatin'

My client had nothin' to do with Daughton.
MIT ought to be lookin' at Lizzie.
Your client's DNA and prints

Jaq, I'm outside your house.

Twenty minutes, yeah?

I'm not sure.
Bruv, you either know or you don't.
Last time I was there,
I was mad fried, so

Yeah.
Thanks.
Okay, sorry.

Just get in the car, babe.
Yo, come on, man.

Jaq!
Jaq!
It's Kieron!
All right, man, all right.
What?
You two are bredrens, bruv.
What, all of a sudden
you don't know where she is?
She must've went out.
Her sister died, innit?
So what?
When was the last time you saw her?
When we confronted Si.
Oi, Kieron, give me your phone.
You don't believe me?
Unlock it, then.
What's wrong?
- Nothin'.
- You sure?
- Go back to the fuckin' ends, man.
- All right.
If she contacts you,
I need to know about it
the second it fuckin' happens, Kieron.
- Yeah.
- This ain't no fuckin' joke.
All right. You gonna drop me?
Not today, thanks.
I'm an enforcement agent, sir.
I've a court writ and a possession order.
You need to open the door now.
Shove your writ up your arse.
You tell him.
- That's right.
- That's it, you tell him. Yeah. Yeah.
Sir, if you do not open the door,
we have the right to force entry.
- Now, I don't have to do that.
- You can try all you like, son.
Knock yourself out.
- That's right.
- Let's try the next one.
How'd you sleep at night?
Mrs. Khatri?
I'm an enforcement agent. I've a writ
from the court and a possession order.
Prisha, you don't need to do
anything he's sayin'.
This is your home.
He's got no right to evict you.
If I was you, Mrs. Khatri,
I'd ignore this woman.
She's a troublemaker.
She's not gonna help ya.
Prisha, don't let him win.
We're tired, Mandy.
It's so much stress.
I can't do this anymore.
Sorry.
- Don't do it.
- Don't do it.
Come on then.
I done somethin' dumb.
All right.
Whatever it is, we'll figure it out.
Nah, there ain't no goin' back
from this one.
I'm so sorry I got you involved.
I got 25 kilos in the boot.
I stole it from Sully and Dushane,
and they know that it was me.
And now they're after me.
And if they catch me, I'm dead.
Well, can you speak to them?
Explain
With Lauryn and everything, you
Nah, it don't work like that, babe.
Why did you steal it?
Lauryn died 'cause of this shit!
This shit needs to stop now!
How long are we gonna have to hide for?
A week?
- Maybe a little
- How long?
I do I don't know.
What kinda life
is the baby gonna have on the run, Jaq?
Jaq.
It's gonna be all right. All right, babe?
I'm gonna talk to Sully.
You should've seen the way
Sully come and badded up Si, man.
Si shit himself on some shook ting.
He ain't on the same smoke as Sully, man.
We was in the kitchen having dinner
and we hear a knock on the door,
and Jamie goes to get it.
Next thing, all I hear is bang.
Me and Aaron come runnin' out,
see Jamie on the floor,
and there's blood everywhere.
And then the brudda
shoots Jamie in the head.
And he looks up at me.
I see who it is.
You okay?
I was watchin' TV
with my dad, and same.
There was a knock at the door.
My dad, he had his glasses on,
but he didn't have any shoes.
And he went to the door.
Then I heard him talking
and heard this other man talking.
And I knew this voice.
It was Sully.
Then my dad said somethin' to me,
like he'll be back in a minute.
And that was it.
I never saw him again.
I don't even think I said goodbye.
But then the Summerhouse lot
came round and said not to say anything
to anyone about Sully.
They tried to tell me and Aaron
the same thing.
He killed Jamie,
and I'm supposed to say nothin'?
I'm supposed to do nothin'?
I see Sully round the ends
with his daughter,
and I think, "Why does he get to live
when he killed my brother,
and he killed your dad?"
See, that ain't right.
No, it's not.
Your guy found Lizzie, yeah?
This isn't about Lizzie. Come on.
My contact tells me
that MIT have got you down for Jeffrey.
- I weren't there. I told you that.
- Understood.
But somehow your prints and DNA
are showin' up at the scene.
Listen,
as your lawyer,
and, I'd like to think, your friend,
my advice would be
now might be a good time
to consider gettin' out of the country.
Not under your own name, of course.
They'll be watchin' ports and airports.
You really think that's necessary?
Prints and DNA?
Yeah, unfortunately, very necessary.
I've got a Jamaican passport
in another name.
Good. You'll need that.
Although it could be a big risk
going through passport control,
with facial recognition
and the latest technology.
Fuck, man.
Have you heard of Isaac Latif?
- You know who I'm talkin' about?
- No.
Well, Latif will get you out.
It's what he does, and he's 100% reliable.
I can talk to him if you want.
It'll cost, of course.
How much?
Last person I sent his way cost
250K.
- That's a lot of fuckin' money.
- Gettin' out is expensive.
Stayin' out is also very expensive.
You're gonna need cash. Lots of it.
Do you want me to talk to him?
- Talk to him.
- He'll want the cash up front.
- How long's it gonna take to set up?
- I'll talk to him today.
Meanwhile, usual drill.
Burners only.
You stay away from home, friends, family,
and any places they associate with ya.
That passport,
it's back at my house.
- Police will be watchin' it.
- So why don't you go in there and get it?
That'll leave me open to conspiracy
to pervert the course of justice.
I'll be no use to you
from inside of a prison cell.
Is there anyone else you can ask?
- Yeah.
- Good.
A friend of a friend is a good idea,
if you know what I mean.
Someone you can trust, but not someone
the police have as a contact.
I'll find someone.
Listen, Dushane, on the subject
of filthy lucre, P's
Bro, I know what you're gonna say.
Good. Obviously
you'll negotiate a fee with Isaac,
but if you remember,
I've lent you quite a tidy sum.
I'll round it down to 42K.
You can give it to Isaac when you see him.
- I'll give it to him.
- Good luck.
Fuck's sake.
Gary, get a couple
of the guys on this, yeah? 'Scuse me.
'Scuse me, please. Out the way.
Thank you.
Out the way.
Too wicked, mate.
You don't have no heart. Evil.
Yeah, we're still havin' a bit of trouble
down here.
The crowd's gettin' bigger.
They started blockin' the stairwells.
- Well, I'll have to, won't I?
- Out the way!
Yeah, all right.
Shelley.
You are my weakness ♪
Naomi, could you, um
- Yeah, sure.
- Sorry.
Naomi's just gonna take care of you, okay?
- Thank you.
- I'll be back in a minute.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- How are you?
- Fine, thanks. How are you?
What's wrong?
Found out the feds are watchin' my yard.
Why?
Fuck knows.
Well, is it serious?
No, it's just some
harassment bullshit, man.
But listen,
there's a couple tings in my yard
I need to get,
but I can't get them myself.
Some cash.
All right.
Shelley, you know,
if I didn't need your help,
I wouldn't be coming to ask, you get me?
Dushane, you're in trouble.
Of course I'm gonna help you.
But after what happened?
We broke up.
Doesn't cancel out
everythin' we've been through.
Where's the money?
In my closet.
In the safe.
Got a passport in there as well.
You need a passport? How bad is this?
It's cool.
You know, it's just precautions.
- All right, I'll get you what you need.
- No, no. Can't be you.
Has to be someone else.
Listen, don't call my phone.
Call that number, yeah?
Are you takin' the fuckin' piss?
Can I sit?
What the fuck's goin' on?
Huh? Nothin'.
You still got it?
Hm?
Every bit of it?
- You fuckin' lie to me, man
- I wouldn't lie to you.
Course not.
Just steal.
There's bare shit goin' on
in my head, Sully,
and I can't make sense of none of it.
I lost my sister to this shit.
I know you understand
what I'm goin' through right now.
All right?
But I'm lookin' around, and nothin'
nothin' is makin' sense to me.
Look, all I know is, I don't wanna be
doin' this shit no more.
Then don't.
The food is killin' us.
It's killed Lauryn.
- How many more of us need to
- Shh.
Lauryn killed herself.
Don't blame me.
I'll bring you your food back.
Oh yeah, you will.
Look, all I'm asking for is a guarantee.
A pass.
Nah.
'Cause I don't trust you no more.
Cool?
Cool?
I know the next time I see you,
you're gonna decide whether I live or die.
All right? I know that.
But, Sully, I'm beggin' you,
please
don't hurt my family.
Becks and the baby have no part in this.
Jaq
don't beg.
It's disgustin'.
Tonight.
Tonight.
Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. All right.
Come on, Naomi.
Come on.
