the truth.
- Greg fucked up.
- What are you doing?!

Señor Gomez, to be a bitch.
[chuckling]

what this is? It's a land mine.
You will place this
underneath the seat cushion
on my brother's chair.

[Gemma] It's fun to have
a roommate.
If Selma's gone to the trouble
of keeping you alive
and locking you in here,
it's because
she needs something from you.
But when she gets
that something,
you will be killed.
Can we just not talk? Please.
If you wanna live,
then your one option is escape.
If you wanna escape,
then your one option, it's me.
Get that door open.
Get me out. I've got a plan.
I am your option.
Why are you locked up in here?
[inhales sharply] Drug mule
they charged me with,
which is bullshit, by the way,
because I'm totally innocent.
I just trusted
some fucking asshole.
No. Why are you locked up
in here? In here.
Oh.
Because she's fucking insane.
You're not her friend.
You're her pet.
Probably the same reason
you are in here. In here.
[clinking]
[Selma] Gomez is on his way,
so get ready.
You're doing the work.
No more unhelpful surprises.
If it's today,
you will be dead by tonight.

I don't want you to be late.
[lock clinks]
[Selma]
Where are they, Miguel?
If Branco finds them first,
then we're fucked.
No more mistakes, señora.
I promise we'll find
the gringos before Branco.
I want my fucking scapegoats!

Was it in all of our suitcases?
Uh
I don't know. I can't remember.
That's what it said
in the fax from the embassy.
Yeah. Yeah, it was.
Nice, mate, 'cause I lied.
[Ryan] How?
Tell me how, Stu.
The fuck you wanna deny
you did it?
Mate, what difference
does it make?
How'd you do it?
The fucking
flight home.
Yeah? The night one.
We booked the late one specially
so that all the luggage would
get locked up at the hotel.
Fucking Jesus Christ.
- Who even are you?
- Wasn't my idea, was it?
It was fucking Greg that
actually planted all the coke.
[John] Fuck off it was Greg.
Who do you think you're
shining on at this stage?
You worm.
[scoffs]
Worm?
Is your head all right, John?
You never told a lie, huh?
All I wanted was
to be good enough for Sam.
[scoffs]
Good enough for Sam?
You really are deluded.
Tell me this, cheeky chops.
Where is Greg?
How the fuck should I know?
He He made me do it.

I-I just need to
I just need to tell you lot
the truth now. Thought I
I couldn't find Greg.
He was gone.
Ry, mate, he was gone.
By the time
I went to give him this,
he was already gone!
And I couldn't tell you that
I got in touch with London
without him, could I?
London?
Who the fuck are you
supposed to be now,
John Le Carre?
The The people the coke
belonged to have connections.
Yeah? They put a bribe
in the right pocket,
we'll be out of here.
This phone just has to ring,
and this whole mess is over.
Are you that fucking slow?
The clue's in the name. Mule.
You're expendable.
They don't need you.
Phone. Give it. I'll have it.
- No.
- Give it!
Ry, help me out.
[Kai] Game over, Stu.
Kai, what are you doing?
Sit back down,
you plastic fucking gangster.

those bastard swing classes
to look a twat
on the dance floor, have I?
How about something
a bit more up-tempo
for the father-daughter dance.
What do you think?
You was never here.
You know, you was
like a fucking ghost.
No one had heard from you
in months.
Yeah, you might as well
have been fucking dead,
- for all we knew.
- What, so you

manipulative bastard.

This was your big chance!
You're a fucking predator, mate!
Boys! Boys!
We agreed. Champagne
table cloths, not pink.
I don't give a fuck
how much pink pops
in the photograph.
We agreed champagne!
Hey hey, come here.
Come here. You see what
you've done to this man?
You know what?
I can't take any more of this.
I'm getting out.
Look at how much better
life is with you in it, Ry.
Kai literally thought
let's get away from ya.
[John] End of the day,
she'll get over it, your mother.
She just runs hot and cold.
It's not worth getting
in a kerfuffle over.
Don't know what you're looking
at me for, John.
It was him
who cracked your skull open.
- No, it fucking wasn't.
- No?
No, that was you.
This has all been fucking you.
You talk about me
being a predator?
- What does that make you, mate?
- That's exactly what you are.
Fucking sad man.
You You are fucking
You are poison, Stu.
You are poison all the way.

Watchtowers, minefield,
scorpions
snakes
And sharks,
if we made it to the sea.
And I've been trying
to calculate
if you jumped off
the cliffs here
whether or not
you'd die from it.
Oh.
Yeah.
Lovely.
You lot hearing that?
Nice bit of music.
No, Dad. I think they're
playing it to torture us.
Anyways, if we got past
the minefield
and jumped off the cliffs,
we could hit the rocks
and survive with just, you know,
broken bones.
Yeah, is this supposed
to be helping?
Just figuring out
our chance of survival.
So let's get real.
From where we're falling,
the heart attacks would kill us
before we even

hit the ground.

[suspenseful music]

of our friendship? Is
Is that what you're saying?
[sighs]
You never even deserved her.
- Yeah?
- Yeah. Not one day
out of the lot of them
have you ever deserved her.
The world doesn't stop
fucking turning
just 'cause you've walked
out of the room, dickhead.
- Does it not?
- No.
Your actions
have got consequences.
And in this case,
it was me, lonely.
And it was Sam, lonely.
[grunts]
- You missed.
- Yeah?

How fucking could you?

Fucking shit!
Get the fuck off me.
Get the fuck off.
Kneel down! Which little pig
shall I shoot first, huh?
You and Hugo are murderers,
and here the price
for that is death.
Why did Hugo do what he did?
Thanks for coming.
John Dwyer, father of the bride.
Whoa, we didn't fucking
kill anybody!
Hugo didn't even know Ant.
He didn't even know him.
Who the fuck is Ant?
He was our friend.

Do it.
What did you pieces of shit
have against Davide?
- Nothing!
- I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
We didn't kill anybody!
We didn't fucking kill anybody!
When our Sam first brought
Stu home for dinner,
I thought, I'll be honest,
this little shit
I'd rather have that bastard
who puts cats into bins
join the bloodline.
Come on, old man.
No, wait, no.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
He's been going on.
We've been trying
to fucking just figure out
what's fucking how it works!
- We don't know what's going on!
- We got a job.
We was working for your sister
so we could pay her back.
And that was it.
That's all we've been doing.
Why didn't Hugo want
a job at my factory?
Uh, because he he, um
He'd already got a job
the night before.
She gave it to him.
What was the job? Selma's job?
- She She She was
