Eddy, I'm fucking talking to you--

It's just a spilt drink.

Sobriety suits you.
Who the fuck is that guy?
Dave?
Yeah, don't mind him.
Used to be police.
Maybe still is.
He's probably busted everyone in the roo
Yeah, I remember him.
Really?
Mm-hm.

Shoplifting.
And assaulting a police officer.

Lesson learnt.
Yeah?
What's the difference this time?
This time?
I want it.
I need it.
Come on.
Better get back inside, yeah?
Hey, Seth?
Do you ever think about...
...stuff?
Hasn't done you any good.
See you're back already hanging off Seth
It's not like that.
Yeah, whatever.
He's been working really hard.
He's doing his steps.
The last thing he needs is a distraction
I guess you're the expert.
How long have you been clean now?
Red for ninety days.
Blur for six months, right?
What's black for?
Two years.
Any advice?
Don't get ahead of yourself.
I doubt you'll even be here next week.
Okay, let's get started.

Alright everyone. Up on your feet. Let's
Come on.

The courage to change the things I can.
And the wisdom to know the difference.
We've all done things we are not proud o
Those who have them, get out your lists.
Go on.
Hold them up in the air.
This is it.
All the people we've hurt.
People we knew.
People who cared for us.
People we'll never see again.
Knowing that is not enough.
You need to be ready to take the next st
Tough, right?
Probably the toughest thing you've done.
But not the toughest thing you're going
We're going to have to make good on it.
Yes.
But don't worry, we're not there yet.
This is the past.
And recovery isn't just about the past.
Alright, tag meeting.
We're gonna go around the group.
I don't wanna hear the bad, I wanna hear
I wann hear one thing.
One good thing you've all done recently.
Hey, come on!
It's two hundred steps across that parki
Two hundred.
These twelve should be a piece of cake.
Come on. Who's up?
I've been helping out my sister quite a
She's got a kid and the Dad's long gone,
So I've been taking him on evenings.
Playing football with him and that.
It's not much.
It doesn't pay the bills or anything but

So, yeah.

Y'know what? I'm...
I'm not really feeling this whole--
We're not here to sit in judgement.
You've nothing to be afraid of.
Maybe I deserve to be judged.

You wanna kill him...
She wants to leave...
Sounds like moaning if you ask me.
Don't think we did.
It is moaning...

Maybe that's hard to hear but
Accepting ourselves means accepting we a

When you accept that, you accept you can

So you're the funny guy, eh?
Always telling jokes. Never taking it se
Not so funny anymore, is it?
Jack, you need to calm down.
Whatever it is that you want
This isn't the way to go about it.
No, I'd say it's exactly the way to go a
Well let's talk about that.
Let's talk about what you want.
I want you to take this seriously.
You come in here. Sit in your circle.
Talking about fucking higher powers
Thinking that's enough.
You've no idea what real recovery is.
What it takes.
How much it fuckling hurts.

Is someone else here?
Yes? No?
What am I going to find if I go out thro

What was that?
Nothing.
We'll see about that.
Probably wondering why I'm here.
Who I am.
Believe it or not, I'm here to help you.
You come here every week, looking for ch
Something to make a difference.
Well, here it is
Your "higher power".
(CHARLEY SOBS)
Why are you doing this?
We haven't done anything wrong.
You sure about that?
Shit.
JACK: Here's what we're gonna do
We're gonna go around the circle
Talk about what's in here
What you've done.
And I want each of you to tell me
Show me
Why you deserve to walk out that door.
Why I should let you.
Don't look at them. They can't help you.
Do you want to tell them who this is for
I think you do.
I think you want to tell us
I think you want to get it off your ches
Get it out in the open.
My son. It's for my son.
Your son?

With my mother.
With your mother?
Why is he with your mother?
Why does he live with your mother?
I was a mess.
I needed to get high so I left him in th
You left him in the house?
It wasn't going to be for long.
I thought he'd be okay.
I just lost track of time and when I got
He was so brave.
He didn't cry for the first few hours.
The neighbours heard and...
He's my son.
He belongs with his mother.
What would you say to him?
If he was here right now?
It's difficult, I know, bringing all thi
Okay, okay.
We're gonna try something.
You're gonna talk to me as if I was your

Well, it's an exercise.
He isn't here.
This way you can talk to him.
Get everything off your chest.
I don't know...
She doesn't have to do this.
Yes she does.
I want you to apologise.
To me
your son
right now.
I'm sorry Liam I--
Why are you sorry?
I'm sorry for leaving you alone.
- You had a choice.
- No, I didn't.
Yes you did, yes you did
you had a choice to be a mother...
You had a choice to be a mother or smack
- and you chose drugs over me, isn't tha
- No...
It's not...it's not...
Why do you hate me?
I don't.
Yes you do.
- I don't. I love you. Please, don't say
- Ever since you found out you were knoc
You've hated me.
Ever since I was born.
Why do you hate me?
Please don't say that.
- Why do you hate me? Why do you hate me
- I'd do anything for you. I don't hate
WHY DO YOU HATE ME?
Because you make me realise what a fucki
I didn't...I didn't mean...I didn't mean
I didn't...
(CHARLEY) Don't judge me.
Don't you dare judge me.
You don't have the fucking right. None o
The things you've done.
No-one's judging you.
Fuck you man, she's right.
None of you has the right to judge anyon
Henry, what are you doing?
(DAVE) Leave it.
Won't do you any good listening to him.
He's scared.
Talking shit.
Aren't you Henry?
No, I'm talking complete fucking sense.
I'm not dying for you, you piece of shit
This is your mess.
That's what this is about right?
They've done something to you?
Fucked you over?
I get it.
You're pissed off.
Really, really pissed off.
But I'm not the guy you want.
Is that so?
Henry, stop talking now.
Maybe the plastic cop got a bit too big
Arrested somebody he shouldn't have?
Wouldn't be the first time would it Dave
You've got some fucking balls son.
And this bitch. "Some things you can't m

- You need to stop this now.
How many bin bags was it they found him
You prick. You fucking prick.
It's caught up with you man.
I'm not like these junkies.
These fucking liars.
All this talking...
It's just hot air isn't it?
A whole lot of nothing.
Oh god...oh god...
You can't talk your way out of this one
not with me Henry.
She didn't tell me she was married
I swear to you, I swear.
I tired to break it off
I tried you know
but she said she'd...
I didn't think she'd actually do it
otherwise I would've...
It wasn't my fault.
She wasn't my wife.
She wasn't?
No.
But she was somebody's.
You're just like the rest of them, Henry
You're a piece of shit.
Say it Henry, say: "I'm a piece of shit"
I'm a piece of shit.
You're a piece of shit.
I feel like we're making progress, don't
Right, who's next?
Fuck it.
And fuck you too.
(TEA URN BOILS)
When I first came here
I couldn't help but feel that you were a
labouring under the misapprehension
that you somehow didn't deserve this.
That you were decent people.
Well, I'm glad we've managed to come to
on that front.
Well, some of you at least.
You've got a daughter.
It's not a question, it's an observation
See, men with daughters have this 'look'
They wanna protect them so they see ever
pretty much as a threat.
Isn't that right Dave?
Careful!
You'll hurt yourself.
Or someone else.
You know, you can frighten this lot
throwing chairs around
pointing that pop-gun at people...
But me?
I've got your number mate.
I really don't think you have.
I tell you what

"You are and always have been the deares
"I wish you could say the same about me.
"In the past I failed myself"
"I failed you."
"I was worthless"
"Not fit to be your father."
This is really good stuff, Dave.
Really riveting.
You should channel this into poetry or s
"I don't remember the things you said I
"I want to believe that it wasn't me who
"That I couldn't do that to my own daugh
"but I know that's not true."
What did you do, David?
What did you do, Dave?
It was the drink.
Not me.
I didn't know what I was doing...
I didn't know what I was--

If you'd have read what was in here

Somethings you can't make right.
Makes you wonder...
You think you've got something?
Call a cop.
(SETH): This is her first night here.
Alright?
She doesn't have a letter
She doesn't know anything.
She came in here.
She sat in that chair.
Figure she's got something to get off he
Something she wants to tell us all?
You stole something?
Hurt someone?
Fucked someone?
(KARA WINCES)
Do that to yourself?
Well whatever it is, you must really hat
I came here for the free coffee.
You came here because you've got nowhere
Do you want to take something from me?
Friends?
Family?
Self respect?
I have nothing left for you to take.
You think you've hit rock bottom?
Well guess what?
I brought a fucking shovel.
- Hey, woah, woah...

(SETH): What the fuck?
Jack, what are you doing?
Where are you taking me man?
Jack...Jack, you're talking to me, not h
Oh fuck...
(JACK): Nothing left for me to take

So, I guess I'll take it from him.
(SETH): Oh shit...oh shit...
(KARA): No, no don't do this. Please!
I...erm...I don't know what you want.
I wanna know why you're here.
What you did that was so terrible.
I stole things.
What things?
What things? Erm...

Try harder.

Oh Christ!
What the fuck are you doing?
You heard what he said.
Eddy?
Great, the cavalry's arrived.
I managed to distract him
I don't know for how long.
We gotta go.
We gotta go now.

Do you want me to call the police?
Oh that won't be necessary...
It's good to see you man.
He can't be here.
You can't be here!
If he finds you, he'll kill us.
He'll kill us all!
He'll fucking kill us anyway.
Fuck!
I can't...They won't...
Eddy...
The phones...
The lockbox...the lockbox on the table.
Uh, the keys?
I--
Where are the fucking keys?
I don't know.
Come on, come!
He's got them!
Don't do this to me!
(SETH): It's in the cupboard.
There's a phone in the cupboard.
To the left of the door.
Come on, Eddy.
- That's a fucking shame...
- You really don't have to...
See, the insurance companies man
they'll screw you without a police repor
You've done enough already.

What? You don't want your phone?
Or you don't want to go home?

What was that?
It was nothing.
Everything's fine.

What's happening?
He's...he's killed him.
(CHARLEY): Oh fuck...no...
Please...
Eddy...
Eddy!
You need to get back to the roof.
I can't...there's no time...
Then you need to make the call.
You need to make the call now.
We're fucked. We're completely fucked.

Don't listen to them Eddy, listen to me.
You can do this.
This is suicide.

Make the bleeding call.
It's 999.
How on earth are you fucking this up?

(TEA URN DRIPS)
(JACK): Here?
Unbe-fucking-lievable.
Jesus.
That's a lot of gear.
So you're like what?
A drug dealer now?
So, how does that work then?
You keep close to the ones who look like
Offer to help them out?
And all this time I was blaming myself.
I never gave anyone anything they didn't
Do you really believe that?
Or is it just something you say to make
It's funny, when I first came here I act
Like for once, somebody actually had my
Guess I know the truth now though.
What's that?
We're just a bunch of people, sat in a c

Disappointing.
Not exactly unexpected but still
disappointing.
I found this

In the bathroom!

You get this from him?
S-sometimes.
Sometimes.
Does that sound like something a friend
Someone trying to help you?
No.
You're in luck Eddy.
Because I am your friend.
And I am here to help you.
When I was about twelve
thirteen
I was a real shit.
Fights.
Girls.
Broken windows.
One day, my Dad catches me smoking.
Usual teenage bullshit, right?
No problem, right?
Except
he'd watched his Mum
my Grandmother
die of lung cancer.
And he'd be damned if he'd have the same
So
he takes the packet
and tells me to smoke the entire thing.
I was sick as a dog, but
I tell you
I never smoked another cigarette.

Alright, alright.
Okay, okay.
One...two...three...four.
Why don't you help him out?
All this will boil his fucking brains, l

You might all just get through that.
Course, that mean going back to square o
All those months...
Years...
of recovery, just...
Gone.
But I'm sure he's totally worth it.
Right?
(EDDY): Guys?
Please don't let him kill me.
Don't let him kill me.
Please.
(SETH): Twenty eight grams.
An ounce is about twenty eight grams.
That's five point six each.
Jesus.
Had a mate do three once.
His heart was pounding like you wouldn't

his muscles seized up.

He couldn't.

They would never have let me see my son
I couldn't risk that happening, I couldn

But you didn't.
You had a choice.

He's going nowhere.
- Come on, come on. Think about your boy
- What about Seth? What about Seth?
Seth!
You missed someone.
Or maybe you didn't.
A life for a life.
Whose fault is it?
You?
Or you?
(SETH): Jack, Jack we both know it's me.
No Seth, it's not. It's my fault.

This is a surprise.
Hey Ellen.
Been a while.
After last time I honestly didn't think
Didn't think I'd be welcome.

You planning on causing trouble?

Takes nothing to fall off the wagon, and

Every week this fucking shit.

Eddy, I said "Are you done?"
Eddy, I'm fucking talking to you--

It's just a spilt drink.

Sobriety suits you.
Who the fuck is that guy?
Dave?
Yeah, don't mind him.
Used to be police.
Maybe still is.
He's probably busted everyone in the roo
Yeah, I remember him.
Really?
Mm-hm.
What did he get you on?
Shoplifting.
And assaulting a police officer.

What's the difference this time?
This time?
I want it.
I need it.
Come on.
Better get back inside, yeah?
Hey, Seth?
Do you ever think about...
...stuff?
Hasn't done you any good.
See you're back already hanging off Seth
It's not like that.
Yeah, whatever.
He's been working really hard.
He's doing his steps.
The last thing he needs is a distraction
I guess you're the expert.
How long have you been clean now?
Red for ninety days.
Blur for six months, right?
What's black for?
Two years.
Any advice?
Don't get ahead of yourself.
I doubt you'll even be here next week.
Okay, let's get started.

And the wisdom to know the difference.
We've all done things we are not proud o
Those who have them, get out your lists.
Go on.
Hold them up in the air.
This is it.
All the people we've hurt.
People we knew.
People who cared for us.
People we'll never see again.
Knowing that is not enough.
You need to be ready to take the next st
Tough, right?
Probably the toughest thing you've done.
But not the toughest thing you're going
We're going to have to make good on it.
Yes.
But don't worry, we're not there yet.
This is the past.
And recovery isn't just about the past.
Alright, tag meeting.
We're gonna go around the group.
I don't wanna hear the bad, I wanna hear
I wann hear one thing.
One good thing you've all done recently.
Hey, come on!
It's two hundred steps across that parki
Two hundred.
These twelve should be a piece of cake.
Come on. Who's up?
I've been helping out my sister quite a
She's got a kid and the Dad's long gone,

Y'know what? I'm...
I'm not really feeling this whole--

Maybe there's no coming back from what I

It is moaning...

Maybe that's hard to hear but
Accepting ourselves means accepting we a

Always telling jokes. Never taking it se
Not so funny anymore, is it?
Jack, you need to calm down.
Whatever it is that you want
This isn't the way to go about it.
No, I'd say it's exactly the way to go a
Well let's talk about that.
Let's talk about what you want.
I want you to take this seriously.
You come in here. Sit in your circle.
Talking about fucking higher powers
Thinking that's enough.

We haven't done anything wrong.
You sure about that?
Shit.
JACK: Here's what we're gonna do
We're gonna go around the circle
Talk about what's in here
What you've done.
And I want each of you to tell me

No-one's judging you.
Fuck you man, she's right.
None of you has the right to judge anyon

Won't do you any good listening to him.
He's scared.
Talking shit.
Aren't you Henry?
No, I'm talking complete fucking sense.
I'm not dying for you, you piece of shit
This is your mess.
That's what this is about right?
They've done something to you?
Fucked you over?
I get it.
You're pissed off.
Really, really pissed off.

I didn't think she'd actually do it
otherwise I would've...
It wasn't my fault.
She wasn't my wife.
She wasn't?
No.
But she was somebody's.
You're just like the rest of them, Henry
You're a piece of shit.
Say it Henry, say: "I'm a piece of shit"

You're a piece of shit.
I feel like we're making progress, don't
Right, who's next?
Fuck it.
And fuck you too.
(TEA URN BOILS)
When I first came here
I couldn't help but feel that you were a
labouring under the misapprehension
that you somehow didn't deserve this.
That you were decent people.
Well, I'm glad we've managed to come to
on that front.
Well, some of you at least.
You've got a daughter.
It's not a question, it's an observation
See, men with daughters have this 'look'
They wanna protect them so they see ever
pretty much as a threat.
Isn't that right Dave?
Careful!
You'll hurt yourself.
Or someone else.
You know, you can frighten this lot
throwing chairs around
pointing that pop-gun at people...
But me?
I've got your number mate.

It was the drink.

Alright?
She doesn't have a letter
She doesn't know anything.
She came in here.
She sat in that chair.

Something she wants to tell us all?
You stole something?

You came here because you've got nowhere
Do you want to take something from me?
Friends?
Family?
Self respect?
I have nothing left for you to take.
You think you've hit rock bottom?
Well guess what?
I brought a fucking shovel.

So, I guess I'll take it from him.
(SETH): Oh shit...oh shit...
(KARA): No, no don't do this. Please!
I...erm...I don't know what you want.
I wanna know why you're here.

There's a phone in the cupboard.
To the left of the door.

That's a lot of gear.
So you're like what?

So, how does that work then?
You keep close to the ones who look like

Or is it just something you say to make
It's funny, when I first came here I act

What's that?
We're just a bunch of people, sat in a c

I was a real shit.
Fights.
Girls.
Broken windows.
One day, my Dad catches me smoking.
Usual teenage bullshit, right?
No problem, right?
Except

my Grandmother

Right?
Alright, alright.
Okay, okay.
One...two...three...four.

All this will boil his fucking brains, l

You might all just get through that.
Course, that mean going back to square o
All those months...
Years...

Gone.
But I'm sure he's totally worth it.
Right?
(EDDY): Guys?
Please don't let him kill me.
Don't let him kill me.
Please.
(SETH): Twenty eight grams.
An ounce is about twenty eight grams.
That's five point six each.

Had a mate do three once.
His heart was pounding like you wouldn't

his muscles seized up.
Didn't even yell for help.
He couldn't.
