Fixed

1 Previously on 21 Thunder - Are you sleeping with her? - I honestly can't remember.
I think our physiotherapist might be your girlfriend.
Marie and I are getting married next month.
Your older brother is either dead or long gone from Montreal.
- Maybe Fatima can help us.
- We don't need help.
- Why Cornell? - It's where my sister went.
I sold your debt.
You work for me now.
I took care of that little prick.
What's it gonna cost me? I want you to come see me, once a week.
Noley Stay the fuck away from me! Don't come here again! I love you, Em.
I need to finish school here.
I need money.
- How would you fix a game? - I'd buy a referee.
Does your wife know there's 3 mortgages on your home? We know you have a problem.
We want to help you.
(Groaning) (Alarm beeping) (Sighing) (Birds chirping) (Doorbell ringing) (Chuckling) I went to see my dad.
How was it? Weird, but kind of helpful, I guess.
I'm supposed to go see him again tomorrow.
I don't know what I'm gonna say to him.
I could go with you.
No, that's a bad idea.
Why? I don't know.
It's complicated.
I want to meet your father.
(Chuckling) You really want to meet him? OK.
(Chuckling) (Sighing) (Door closing) These are the players I want to see.
You poached my assistant coach Michel.
Now you're back for more? (Chuckling) They outgrow you.
They come to me.
You're the line cook, and I'm the chef.
Gallard left practice early the other day.
He's not in my starting 11.
He is now! - Yo, who are we? - Thunder! - Who are we? - Thunder! - Who are we? - Thunder! - Who gonna fall? - They gonna fall! - Vancouver gonna what? - Gonna take a knee! - Yeah, who are we? - Thunder! - I said who are we? - Thunder! - I said who are we? - Thunder! (All cheering) All right, listen up! Listen up! These guys are in last place and they're playing away.
They are gonna be loose and they are gonna come after it.
We need to be ready! First team coach will be watching.
A win today brings us one step closer to qualifying for the Inter-Con Cup, where the whole world will be watching you, where we test ourselves against Europe's best, the opportunity to change your lives.
A win today means everything.
With that, I say to you, let's go Montreal (All): Thunder! - Montreal - Thunder! You're back in.
Don't make me regret it.
(Crowd cheering) (Announcer): Vancouver better come hungry, because the Thunder have a lot worth fighting for today.
(Line beeping) Yeah? (Lara): Hey! I dropped the money for the ref.
I saw him take it.
We're on.
- (Man 1): Let's go! - (Man 2): Go, go, go! (Announcer): Nolan Gallard loses possession.
Not the start his coach was looking for.
El Haddadi gathers it up.
He's in no rush because Montreal should win this easily.
(Whistle blowing) Six second violation.
What? You're kidding me! You gotta be shitting me, ref.
- Careful.
- Are you serious? You're a freaking joke! Whoa! Referee Desjardin has called a keeper for holding the ball longer than 6 seconds.
This is rarely called.
That referee is dog shite! I've never seen this given.
Vancouver with a free kick.
And this could be dangerous.
(Crowd members shouting, indistinct) (Crowd cheering) (Whistle blowing) Vancouver leads 2-nil.
What a nightmare start for the home team.
Look at me.
Can you remember who scored last? I really wish I couldn't.
Yeah.
You're fine.
We should be beating these guys by 10 goals! Don't you want this? It's the ref! He's a piece of shit! The ref did not let in 3 goals! - Oh, they were bullshit calls! - Doesn't matter! It's players that win or lose games.
We need to score! You have 45 minutes left to regain some sort of dignity! Let's go! (Crowd cheering) 3-nil, Vancouver.
Real humiliation for Montreal so far today.
(Whistle blowing) Handball! More controversy here.
Gallard's arms were clearly down by his side.
I don't understand this red card.
Get off your knees! You're blowing this game.
And you're just a thug, like your dad.
Say it again! Call your boy off out there! I've never seen so many bullshit calls! Get your eyes checked! You called that intentionally! His arm was by his side! You're out too, coach! You're out too! Hijo de puta mal parido! So, Referee Desjardin has decided to call this game by the book.
He's punishing Montreal.
Gunn, you're in charge! Possession! We control the ball.
(Man): Oh, come on! They've now lost their star striker and their coach.
(Screaming) Nolan? Nolan! (Breathing heavily) Nolan, it's me! You OK? (Breathing heavily) (Crowd members cheering) Tell me you have something.
I might.
Vancouver knocks the ball out of play, so Montreal have possession.
The Thunder needs a step up or these visitors from out West are gonna walk away with this game.
Tran and Big Snacks, bring it in! (Crowd booing) Give the ball to Vancouver.
Listen, dickheads! Their defence is weak and panics easily.
Get the ball to their backline.
We swarm with our front three, our midfield moves in, we press.
- Good things will happen, OK? - Got it.
- Go tell the others.
- Let's go.
Junior! Up front! (Crowd cheering) The old kick and chase.
It's gonna get ugly! "Ugly" bought me a penthouse on Hyde Park with a gold shitter.
(Chuckling) This man who ripped you and your brother off, do you remember his name? Bamba.
He had this scar on his cheek from a bullet.
(Crowd cheering) I'm sure it is my brother.
Let's go! (Whistle blowing) Goal! An absolute cracker from Lolo! And that's one back from Montreal! 3-1, Vancouver.
Here's Lolo again! (Crowd cheering) And he scores again! - Yes! - 3-2! And just like that, the Thunder are in this game, thanks to Junior Lolo, the revelation so far of this young season.
(Horn blaring) (Whistle blowing) (Man): Oh! (Men shouting, indistinct) - You got it? - Yeah.
(Whispering): Do something.
I can't hand them the game.
You control the clock.
(Crowd cheering) (Men shouting, indistinct) We're into the final few moments.
Can Montreal pick up a last-gasp equalizer here? And this could be it! He gives it to Junior Lolo.
(Whistle blowing) I don't believe it! The referee's blown the full-time whistle.
There's absolutely zero stoppage time! No stoppage time? What are you playing at? Do you know how hard these kids work out here? Huh, do you? Careful, coach.
Careful.
The final score here, somehow, is Vancouver, 3, Montreal, 2, a crushing loss for the Thunder, who miss out on critical points towards the Inter-Con Cup.
(Talking indistinctly) Look who came! Fatima wanted to help us find Gregoire.
Sly told me everything.
I know people in the community who may have information about your brother.
We don't want your help.
Let's go.
Nice goals! Don't talk to strangers about our family business.
But Fatima is a friend.
We don't know she's ours.
Here! I'm not your secretary.
And I'm not paying your bar tab.
(Sniffling) Yeah? You moving my molly? Yeah, I'm collecting off the plugs tonight.
What else you got for me? We're looking at a truck that crosses the border at Lacolle every night.
6,000 pounds of smokes.
"We're looking at"? (Scoffing) Every week, you give me two large.
Next payment Friday, or I do you worse than they did your boy up in here.
(Line clicking) ( Pop playing on stereo ) So, how was your first game, doc? Good.
Well, for me.
Yeah.
Got my man to thank for it.
Mm-hmm.
You hear from Cornell? I got in.
- That's great! - Whoa! Hey, man! Yeah, congrats, man! Look at all of you, getting legless.
Ugh! If this was Glasgow, they'd string you up for leaving your house after a loss, let alone this.
It's a good thing we're not in Glasgow.
(Scoffing) I should go.
I got class in the morning.
What? Come on! You deserve some fun! - OK, what are you doing? - I'm finding you a Tinderella.
A friend got that.
I barely use it.
- OK.
- Come on, man! What are you It's a match! Oh, really? "Just because I'm a goalkeeper, "doesn't mean you can't score.
" OK, please don't send that.
Give me the phone.
Too late.
I'm getting you laid.
It's my personal mission.
(Emma laughing) What the hell are you looking at? We're good.
75 large I'd say it's pretty much the definition of "good".
It's enough.
So, when are we gonna do this again? - When's the next game? - No! I said one and done, and I meant it.
Hi! Can I get two of, uh, whatever will get me drunk? Where's Lolo? Uh Rocas invited him over for dinner.
Are you kidding me? I've never had dinner at the coach's house.
Really? He's never invited you? Yes, really! Sorry, man.
(Sighing) (Insects chirring) (Whispering): This is chimi chimi - Chimichurri.
- Oh, yes.
Um, chimichurri? That's right! Is it a family recipe? No, it's from the charcuterie at the market.
My mom is a great cook, but I never learned.
Maybe now that I have so much time on my hands Renata is a talented architect, but we're still waiting for her work permit.
Hmm May I ask a personal question? Mm-hmm.
Why Montreal? Other clubs must have offered you more money.
Mmm I came for my family.
If you'll excuse us for a moment, I'd like to show Junior something.
Come.
This is good.
Thank you.
( Pop playing on stereo ) - Hi! - Hi! Can I buy you a drink? Um Don't think that's a good idea.
I just wanted to make a toast.
To what? To your engagement.
You know, we never even went on a date.
(Sighing) Tomorrow night.
Let me treat you like you deserve.
(Chuckling) (Moaning) (Both breathing heavily) (Laughing) Hi, Christy! (Sighing) Let's have fun.
(Sighing) I didn't bring a condom, so we're gonna have to use the Brexit method.
The other night was good, but we are not gonna make a habit of that.
Besides, I'm the middle of reviewing game tapes.
I'm trying to figure out what the hell happened today.
We lost.
It happens.
But the best way to get over it is just to get underneath me.
(Grace): Is that Davey Gunn? - Aye, it's me! - No Saw your last game for Manchester.
It's always nice to meet a fan.
Hmm In my state now, at my age, I would have been quicker at the ball.
Mom! (Laughing) I'm not used to being talked to that way outside of the Daily Mail.
But I'll let it go for an old nutter like yourself.
(Inhaling deeply) Grab us the good whisky.
(Sighing) (Men shouting, crowd cheering) So close to the perfect hat trick.
Left foot, right foot You only needed the header.
You looked like Platini at the Euros in '84.
I should know.
I was there.
I didn't score those goals alone.
You were hard on the other guys.
They played with honour.
I'll take that into consideration, but right now, I want you to consider this.
A list of the clubs I've sent that tape to.
Liverpool? This is a wonderful opportunity for you.
There will be people out there that pretend to be your friend.
You need someone that you can trust.
(Birds chirping) (Snoring) (Christy chuckling) (Grunting) (Whispering): Hey! Hi! (Sighing) Gotta go.
Thanks.
What for? I haven't seen her that happy in a long time.
Hey, I've got simpatico with the Cook women.
(Laughing) If it wasn't for my dodgy groin, I'd stay for brunch.
(Laughing) Bye, Davey! - Yeah Oh! - Oh! (Groaning) You should really see a doctor.
Thanks for your concern, but really, I'm fine.
(Grunting) (Exhaling sharply) (Grace): He'd be good for you! Your eggs aren't getting any younger! (Groaning) (Bird calling) (Men chatting, indistinct) (Buzzer sounding) I wasn't sure you'd show.
Dad, this is Emma.
Hi! Nice to meet you, Emma.
I would say Nolan's told me all about you, but we both know that's a lie.
Well I guess you know more about me than I know about you.
Not exactly.
Ah I'm assuming my son didn't want to bring you here, but you insisted.
Headstrong, like your mother.
Let's talk about something else.
Did you know that your boyfriend, when he was 5 years old, wandered out of mass at Saint Gabriel's on Centre? Gave us a hell of a scare! But luckily, we found him an hour later, eating ice cream with a nice policeman at Station 12.
- Really? - Happiest day of my life! And surrounded by coppers! - My Nolan? - Imagine! (Bell ringing) Monsieur Pardon.
No.
OK.
(Speaking French) Oh! Hi, honey! How long have you been home for? I'm not really here.
Just a pit stop on the way to San Fran.
- I tried calling.
- I'm sorry.
I've been so busy.
You can always send an email.
I have news.
I got into Cornell.
The same school as Amal? Why would you do that to us? I thought you'd be proud, me following in her footsteps.
By reminding us of your sister's death? Ma, I'm sorry! (Crying) Oh, please don't cry.
That's where her car blew up.
It was meant for my dad.
Some bikers wanted the Point.
I hated him after that.
He went back to prison, and I didn't visit.
You know, seeing him now feels like I'm betraying her.
You're allowed to forgive him.
It doesn't mean you've forgotten her.
If this is too much Anytime you wanna run away I get it.
Come here.
(Sighing) Hey, Cheyenne! It's my birthday.
- Well, happy birthday! - Come to cinq à Sept! A bunch of us are going to your dad's old place.
We should really get going.
We have time for one drink, don't we? (Sighing) (Laughing) Mmm! Blowjobs all around! Hey! Blowjobs all around! ( Rock playing on stereo ) Two for Nolan.
Only two? (All laughing) If it isn't Declan's boy! All grown up, I see! It would be my honour to buy you a drink.
Hmm? Go ahead! - Cheers! Cheers! - (All): Cheers! Bottoms up! (Sighing) The last time I saw you, you was probably 9 or 10 years old, just peacocking around with your daddy, like you was a grown-up gangster.
(Laughing) I don't remember that.
I heard you're a big footballer now.
Remind me to get your autograph for the bar.
Mmm! Go with Mom.
Take her! You think you can come back here without me knowing? You have something of mine.
I better get it back soon.
You can come get it anytime.
Yeah, I fucking will! You will not start anything in here! You broke my nose.
I'll break your fucking legs! - Walk it off! - I'm going! Guys like that they keep turning up like a bad penny.
Your father, he knew that.
Back in the day, he'd do whatever needed doing to protect his kin.
Hmm? ( New age playing on stereo ) (Clears throat) Christy Come on in.
Thanks for seeing me.
I didn't want to email or discuss on the phone.
What's going on? I was watching the game tapes, and this ref, Guy Desjardin I was hoping you could make an inquiry.
Does Albert share your concern? If the coach isn't worried, you shouldn't be.
I need you to be more active on the brand, on social media.
You're part of something larger here, Christy.
You're my girl.
It was great of you to come by! OK! (Inhaling deeply, exhaling slowly) (Talking indistinctly) We'll take these out.
OK.
Do you want me to measure that? Yeah.
Twice in one week, after you say you never wanted to see me again.
Two boys looking for their brother, they paid you $10,000.
Where is it? If you want some money, you can always come back and work for me.
That will never happen.
(Sighing) Why are you helping them, huh? The older one, he's not your boyfriend, is he? It's called doing the right thing.
I wouldn't expect you to understand.
So, you're doing it to annoy me? It's an added bonus.
(Sighing) You said you'd find their brother.
You didn't.
Pay up.
I wish I never found him.
He did that? $500.
That's all that's left.
The rest, I earned.
He's a very bad man.
Keep your friends away from him.
You sure that's Jerry Pettle? Yeah, man.
People are saying he made serious bank, man, out of nowhere, on the U-21s.
Who does he go to for backup? (Laughing) They say Mangano.
(Chuckling) Bet Mangano wouldn't like to hear about Jerry's side deals.
Yeah (Talking indistinctly) Yeah.
- Yo, it's Jerry, right? - Hey, I gotta go.
I'm a friend of Declan Gallard's.
You say that like it's supposed to mean something to me.
How about Mangano? That ring a bell? Look, punk, why don't you run along and play with your toy? Oh fuck! (Both grunting) You tell me who your partners are, or I'm gonna beat you till you can't.
(Horn honking) - Hop in.
- Mm-hmm.
(Sighing) - Big date? - That's right! Where are we going? You'll like it! You know, sneaking around is fun for you.
If you get caught, it's all high fives and a cool story.
I lose my job and my fiancée.
Yeah, but aren't I worth it? (Laughing) Just drive! (Insects chirring) Fuck Cornell! I am here to whisk you away from all this shite.
So, is the injury rumour true? No, I just tweaked it.
I'm good.
Mmm.
Well, to be safe, let's get the MRI so I can send it over to the insurance company anyway.
Luckily, I can still sell seats with you on the bench.
You're saying I'm worth the same to you as a cripple.
More.
Explain that to me over dinner, would you? I, uh, I had to cancel.
Something came up.
(Phone ringing) Yes, of course I can take the call.
Just give me one second please.
Get the MRI.
And, uh, you might want to look over clause 29 or 30 of your contract.
(Laughing) (Insects chirring) (Cell vibrating) (Doorbell ringing) Hey! What are you I sent your photo to 3 of my friends and I dropped a pin on this location, so don't even think about murdering me.
(Laughing): I wasn't gonna This really does look like a serial killer's house.
Do you want a tour? What are you, my real estate agent? I didn't come here to talk.
(Chuckling) One for you.
Don't worry, it's pure.
Why is it black? And one for me.
What What are you It's to stop you from grinding your teeth.
(Chuckling) (Moaning) You're so shiny.
(Both laughing) I've never done this black stuff before.
I'm rolling my ass off! What? You've never done this stuff before? Get off.
Mm-hmm.
Now.
Get off now! (Grunting) What's what's wrong? (Grunting) - What? - Call 911.
My chest Ah! Allo? You're following me? I was looking for you! Why'd you refuse my help yesterday? Why do you want to help me? I saw you leave with Bamba.
Why should I trust anything you have to say to me? I went to get your money back today.
This was all that was left.
Sly told you about the money we lost yesterday? A few years ago, he helped my family with some legal troubles.
Then I went to work for him as a summertime job.
When I found out he was cheating his clients, I quit.
This is my brother Gregoire.
Ah! So, he's the good-looking Lolo.
(Laughing) It's been many years.
He's gentle.
People always like him.
That's who he was.
Are you sure that's who he still is? (Giggling) Do you read your contracts? Yeah.
Don't you? Ana put in my deal that I need to play at least 5 games or else my salary gets cut down to 10%.
So, that's 10% of what? $3 million? Four? Five.
- Ah! Are you serious? - Yeah.
You can't live off half a million dollars? Nope.
That is more than double the salary of the whole women's national team.
I know.
But I made this stupid little mistake with my taxes, being that I didn't actually pay them.
(Scoffing) I thought people were taking care of it! And now I owe, like, $5 million.
I don't want to go to jail.
I'm pretty scared, actually.
(Sighing) How was your meeting with Ana? Ugh! Well, my mom was right.
(Sighing) I'm just a sales gimmick.
No.
What I saw in that game yesterday suggests otherwise.
You're my only friend, Davey.
God help you! (Laughing) ( Habit by Gabrielle Shonk ) You've got a habit of breaking things Bursting bubbles and hearts on strings You've got a habit of using people You seem in control But inside you're lost You play your games with no rules And no sense of respect You live your life like a joke And a self-centered jerk You cheat and lie Causing pain with no thought or regret Not bad, Big Snacks.
It's been too long since someone brought me to a place like this.
Thank you.
You see? When it's a real date, I don't play.
You've got a habit of breaking things Shattering smiles And darts through dreams I'm in love with you.
You've got a habit of breaking things Messing with minds with your plots and schemes You play your games with no rules And no sense of respect You live your life (Woman talking on PA, indistinct) Alex? Emma! Are you OK? You came! Oh, this is beautiful.
You're beautiful.
(Chuckling) So, the date didn't go so well? My teeth are really clenched.
I have a dentist appointment in, like, 15 hours.
You think I'll be OK? Do you want a piece of gum? You're amazing! I love you! (Laughing) That's the drugs talking.
No.
No, I see things clearly now.
Hey, I care about you a lot.
Hey I'm sorry.
(Sighing) Please don't go.
A couple of Asian college kids pulled it off.
I got a line on a ref.
Could make us a lot of dough.
(Declan): I'm gonna need to think about this.
I could make this work for the both of us.
You take this to anyone else, like Mangano, I cut your throat.
You know that.
I know.
You keep my boy the hell out of it.
You hear? Damn straight! Mm-hmm.
( Sister by Young Father ) She grabs my hand to settle Uniformed hero, scared of jagged nettles Incoming sounds Think it's heavy metal Cohesive and loud Engines roaring like a lion On the white and yellow lines What you got for me, Noley? We're standing before the red line And I'm thinking, "Not now" Figure standing in the middle dressed in all yellow With his hat down and a stop sign He shouts, "Come now" Waterfalls appear in the centrefold It's not me.
I'm not playing your game.
