Let�s get you somewhere nice and quiet where you can calm the fuck down and start being useful to me. Okay. AARON I can�t tell you how many times I wanted to burn that thing. AARON Just couldn�t bring myself to do it. It�s the last thing your mother ever left for me. KAYLA Her fucking suicide note? AARON The times I have felt strong enough to throw it in the fire, this is why. The way you�re looking at me. KAYLA She killed herself because of you. AARON You know that isn�t true, Kayla. You�ve read the letter. AARON I�m gonna need it back, by the way. KAYLA Yeah. Course you do. What, so we just go back to our lives, and pretend none of this shit ever happened? AARON There�s context, it�s important to understand... KAYLA Do you reckon the world would understand? If this shit got out? AARON Don�t... EDWARD We have to go back. We need to go back. My Mum, see if she�s still... MARIE She says she fine, you know can take care of herself. EDWARD What about� what about Kayla? If these people can find me in Athens, they can find her. MARIE She is... she�s making sure she�s okay. Alright. That�s why she sent me to make sure you got safe. EDWARD Oh... Fuck... EDWARD Who the devil are you? MARIE I�m your Aunt. MARIE Yeah I know. You got some questions. MARIE I�m just so sorry this is where we�re finally meeting. EDWARD And I�m... sorry, but what... am I... just supposed to trust you? MARIE Okay. Listen, we are meeting your Mom at a safehouse, outside the town. She will everything then. EDWARD Just stop the car right now!... MARIE If you wanna take your chances out there, I�m not gonna stop you. But I really wish you wouldn�t. EDWARD My... my Aunt. MARIE Yeah. My brother� Your Dad. MARIE Can we go? Quicker we get to the safehouse, the quicker we can really talk. Okay? EDWARD Okay. AARON Yeah? JACQUES We tracked down de Voogdt. He was err last sighted in the Tripoli port area, we suspect he boarded a boat in Tripoli, Libya. AARON And? JACQUES The trail went cold. We don�t know where he went after that. But we have men on the ground, it won�t be long before we catch him... AARON So you fucked up. Again. Is that what you�re tryna tell me. JACQUES We are committing every resource available... AARON This is not what I needed. Not today. LUKA You looked better the last time I saw you. DAMIAN Ah I�m glad you came back, let�s get me to a hospital... LUKA I don�t give a fuck about you. I only care about finding out who came to my island. The people who killed my friends and walked away like it was nothing. Who were they? DAMIAN How the hairy bollocks should I know? LUKA The laptop of yours. All your contacts, all your dirty shit. It�s a place to start. DAMIAN It�s gone, I told you. LUKA Don�t lie to me. DAMIAN You�ve never done anything like this in your life. LUKA No.But people change. DAMIAN AARGH! Okay listen... That laptop has got every client, name, and number. If it get�s out, there�s a long list of people who will kill me for letting it happen. LUKA I can make this quick and painless. That long list of people� They will not. KAYLA Take it. KAYLA Got copies of it anyway. AARON What have you done with them? KAYLA Nothing. Yet. AARON Can�t be easy for you. Deciding whether to send me to prison. And shit on your mother�s memory at the same time. KAYLA Don�t talk about her... AARON We did it together, Kayla. We made a very, very bad decision, and she couldn�t live with the consequences. Not a day goes by I don�t think about it. But she�s every bit as guilty as I am. KAYLA Are you tryna make me feel better? AARON I�m tryna help you understand... KAYLA So you don�t go to prison... AARON So you don�t drive yourself mad. That�s why I didn�t want you to know - ever. It�s a burden you shouldn�t have had to bear. AARON Now... do you wanna know about the word �Chantaine�? KAYLA Right, well I don�t have much of a choice, do I? AARON Chantaines was the name of the little French poodle your mother had. KAYLA I thought you were allergic to dogs. AARON I am. But she adored them. We honeymooned in France, not far from here, and she became obsessed with this orange marmalade. Called �Chantaine�. So, when we got a dog... KAYLA This isn�t about you or mum... It�s about doing what�s right? Isn�t it more important for our family not to hide this anymore. AARON Your mother loved you. I love you. But we�re flawed and fucked-up human beings, you and your brother are everything we ever got right in the world.So think about that. Before you blow it all up. EDWARD Eyebrows. His... his eyebrows? MARIE Oh yeah totally. Your dad�s are exactly the same. EDWARD Are. EDWARD He�s alive. MARIE Oh fuck. MARIE Checkpoint. EDWARD You think... that�s for me?! MARIE You�re gonna have to get in the trunk. EDWARD What? I�m claustrophobic. MARIE Prisons pretty fuckin� claustrophobic to, Eddie.

GUARD But I need to check the boot, procedure you know... MARIE Sure. Let me just pop this open. DAMIAN Can you help me tie this off. DAMIAN You leave me here to die... it�s no better than doing it yourself. DAMIAN My blood will still be in your hands! Can live with that? Hmm. Still be friends. Still be friends? Come back. Let�s be friends. KAYLA Do you reckon there�s ever a good reason for telling a lie? EZRA What? KAYLA Forgot who I was asking. You�d probably tell me the earth was flat if it got you what you wanted. EZRA Yeah. Everyone lies, Kayla. KAYLA No they don�t! I don�t. EZRA Look, remember when Raffy got hit by a car, and you told me dad sold him so I�d be angry instead of sad? KAYLA Yeah, you were like eight. EZRA There�s different kind of lies, that�s all I�m saying. KAYLA What kind of lie is this? EZRA Fuck. Is that err... KAYLA Read it for yourself. KAYLA Go on. Take it. EZRA Yeah, Dad told me, you know. To keep... whatever this is under wraps.He� he trusts me. KAYLA Oh, when are you gonna stop begging for his approval? He�s never gonna put you in charge. You keep on dancing for him. Doing all this stuff to try and impress him. What tryna get rid of me, now you won�t even acknowledge this. Just read it. KAYLA Fine, I�ll read it for you. Sit down. KAYLA I�ve made copies of it. EZRA What do you take me for?No. Don�t answer that. KAYLA I�ll give you some space. Come find me when you�re ready to talk. MARIE See� Told you they�d just waved us right through. Easy peasy... MARIE There you go. You okay. EDWARD So... my Dad. MARIE Roy. EDWARD Roy. EDWARD Can�t get my head around it. MARIE We grew up in the Valley. Sunny Southern California. To be honest, your dad was a bit of an asshole to me when we were little but, parents play no walk in the park... EDWARD Okay, but who is he? MARIE That�s what I�m trying to tell you... EDWARD No, I mean... why did my Mum keep him a secret? How did they meet? Is he the reason people keep shooting at us? MARIE Eddie, there are things your Mom did not want me to talk to you about. She wants to be there. To explain. EDWARD Right. She�s just now decided to open up, has she? MARIE I really wanna tell you. But I promised your Mom. EDWARD Right. I�ve spent thirty years being kept in the dark. What�s a few more hours? MARIE Do you like manga? Do you know who Eren Yeager is? EDWARD No? MARIE Okay. Eren is a character from Attack on Titan. He is seen as a monster by the rest of the world. But from his perspective... he is just becoming who he truly is. EDWARD Sorry, I�m just not really following... MARIE His mission isn�t revenge, it�s freedom! So before you judge a person, you have to understand them. What they�re trying to do. And why. MARIE When you hear the truth... You remember that. JULIE Okay. Chantaines. JASPER I. I err... I don�t know... JULIE Someone broke you out of a fucking Libyan prison to make you talk and you�ve got no idea.. JASPER Listen. I am head of IT for CGM and I looked at my boss�, Aaron Cross� email, and it mentioned this one word and it said no-one can ever find out so I blackmailed him - JULIE Okay. JASPER Can you stop pointing that at my balls, please? JULIE So this email, it mentioned Chantaines but didn�t say what it was. JASPER No. No. No. No. I just said it was very, very important that err no-one ever found out. And then I was arrested. JASPER But then, when I was in prison, in err Libya. I got word to Mr Cross, I said that if you don�t get me out of prison, I will tell everything I know about Chantaines. And it worked! JULIE So it was a bluff... JASPER Yeah. JULIE The whole thing was just a bluff, the breaking out of prison, the shooting people was... you never had any idea? What it meant? JASPER No. All I know is I�m still alive. And was it not for this one word Chantaines I... I would not be. JULIE Well what fucking use are you. JASPER No! JULIE Luka? LUKA We need to meet. JULIE Where are you..? LUKA I have Damian�s laptop. JULIE What how?! LUKA It doesn�t matter. It�s erm... there are passwords... JULIE Okay, look, err I�m� I�m in Athens, but it�s teeming with police - I need to get out of here. Where are you? LUKA Somewhere near the Albanian border. JULIE Okay. I� I need somewhere accessible by car. Somewhere remote. LUKA Somewhere in northern Greece maybe? JULIE Yeah, yeah, have you got somewhere? LUKA You have to promise. To behave. JULIE What... what do you mean �behave�? LUKA Promise. JULIE Yes! Yes, alright fuck. I�ll behave. Look, just� just er text me the address, okay, I�ve gotta go. JULIE Well seems like you might have your uses after all. Okay, let�s go. Come on. JULIE Okay. Let�s go. JASPER Yes. Yes. MARIE Be right back. MARIE What are you doing? What are you doing? EDWARD Why do you have drawings of me? MARIE You know... I�ve been� I�ve been wanting to see you for a very, a very long time, Eddie, and I couldn�t... EDWARD Why? MARIE Okay. When we get to the safehouse with your Mom... EDWARD No stop it! STOP IT!. Tell me the truth. Tell me what the fuck is going on here. MARIE Your father, he loves you so much. And he made sure that you were taken care of. EDWARD You mean the trust fund� Anvil Assets? MARIE Yeah. Well that�s all he could do. EDWARD I don�t understand, why... has he never been in touch? MARIE Well that�s what your Mom wanted. EDWARD Why? EDWARD You know what, I�ll call her. She�s waiting for us, right? Where�s your phone... MARIE This is... Stop! No! Stop that! MARIE Your Mum�s not waiting for us! Your Mum�s not waiting for us, okay? It�s not her. It�s him. It�s your Dad. EDWARD My Dad. MARIE Yeah. EDWARD Oh. MARIE Yeah. EDWARD Ray�s waiting at the safehouse? MARIE Yeah, I didn�t wanna tell you. Because he wanted to explain everything to you. Ray�s gonna tell you everything. EDWARD Except you said his fucking name was Roy. MARIE Eddie... Edward... EZRA I think this is a... it�s a good thing. AARON What that both my children, know the worst thing I�ve ever done? You and your sister will never think of your mother, who fucking adored you - the same way� Ever again? EZRA You said Chantaines needed to be protected. Now I understand why. EZRA Look I... I get it now. That�s what I�m saying. And I�m telling you, I�m your guy. I stepped up when the fella tried to shoot you, and I�m doing it now. Hey, you�re not going to jail. Hey and no-one is gonna hear anything about this. AARON It�s too late. EZRA I can get through to Kayla. She�s angry now but she... she won�t do that to Mum�s memory. To you. I really believe that. AARON It�s more complicated than just about your sister... EZRA This err... Jasper guy? EZRA Oh yeah. The big E is on this shit! That�s me. The big E. Ezra. AARON What are you talking about? EZRA This erm... this Jasper guy called, saying he knew about Chantaines. So I made a call. To get him taken out. EZRA Err but it err... it err, went a bit wrong... AARON �A bit wrong�? EZRA Yeah it�s a bit complicated, to be fair Julie and Edward were there and... and Jasper got away and the person I hired is, is dead. EZRA I... I know where... where Jasper is now though. So you get your Blacknall guys err to follow the trail, cause he...he can�t have got that far away... AARON How do you do it Ezra? How do you turn everything you touch to shit. EZRA No. We can fix this. I... I... I can. I... I got your back... AARON Maybe it�s my fault. After your mother died I threw myself into my work. When I saw you and your sister, trying to compensate. I told you, you were smart. Capable. Could achieve anything. AARON But you are, and have always been, a vapid, self-absorbed narcissist with the intellectual capability of an amoeba. EZRA I messed up... I... I took - I took initiative, for� for you, for the family... AARON You could�ve come to me but you decided to handle it yourself. I bet you were high. Am I right? AARON And then you put Kayla�s fianc� in danger... AARON Oh ex. Or I dunno. �It�s... it�s complicated�. AARON It�s always the same with you isn�t it. Everything�s just one great big joke. It never occurs to you that a fuck-up like you could never, will never, be able to step up and run the business. EZRA That�s not.... you don�t mean that... AARON My expectations of you, Ezra, have never been high. And yet somehow, impossibly, you have contrived to spectacularly disappoint me. Get out of my sight. JULIE Luka. LUKA You made it... JULIE How did you get it? LUKA Better I don�t tell you. JULIE Yeah. That�s usually my mantra. LUKA Are you okay? JULIE Yeah, yeah, it�s err... just a scratch. Edward�s gone. Someone took him. LUKA Oh shit. Who? JULIE Yeah I... I don�t know. I�m hoping Damian�s laptop will help me find out. JULIE I brought a nerd with me, to help with the encryption. JASPER Hello! JASPER Okay I�m Jasper de Voogdt and err... LUKA Why didn�t you tell me you were bringing him? JULIE Well is there... Is there a problem? LUKA This is my mother�s house! JULIE Oh... That�s why you said I had to behave myself! LUKA I told her I was passing through with a friend for the night... not turning up with a man with no fingers! JASPER (holding up his other hand) I have fingers, I have some. JULIE And I told you we that I needed somewhere remote! I�m a wanted woman for God�s sake. LUKA Look my mother she doesn�t looks at the news. And her eyesight is... I�ll give you my shirt to cover the blood Unless you have a better idea? JULIE I suppose not. LUKA Okay. You, go round the back and wait for us. JASPER Okay KATERINA Julie, hello! JULIE Hello. I�m- KATERINA Oh! You� you speak Greek! JULIE Yeah. Yeah I do� JULIE This can�t really wait, can it Luka? LUKA Just down the stairs. Watch your head. LUKA Mama� JULIE Are we okay down here? LUKA My mother doesn�t come down here anymore. The stairs are too steep. We�ll be fine. JULIE So the err... the guy who used to own this laptop has kept records of every paid hit, he ever arranged. I want you to break any passwords he had, and I want you to find that information. JASPER Okay. It�s a... its a... it�s a floppy disc. For this you pay me? JULIE Look, let�s not get silly, for this, I�ll let you live. JASPER Okay. Thank you. KAYLA Hey. KAYLA Yeah. KAYLA Maybe I shouldn�t have told you. I kinda wish I could go back myself... But maybe this is a good thing? We can get the truth out there. KAYLA We�re not our parents, Ez. We can do better. And we can be better. I�m actually just drafting an email, gotta find someone to help me put the real story out there... EZRA It�s not that. KAYLA What? EZRA It�s err... erm, you wouldn�t understand. KAYLA Try me. HOUSEKEEPER Help! HOUSEKEEPER Kayla. Ezra. Kayla. Ezra. S�il vous pla�t. ?? KAYLA Dad! Dad! KAYLA What are you doing ? Why are you just standing there! Call an ambulance! MARIE Hush little baby, don�t say a word, mama�s gonna buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird don�t sing, mama�s Gonna buy you a diamond ring. LUKA Get something to drink? JULIE No. No, I�m err... I might go and have a lie down. LUKA You must be hungry- JULIE No. No, I�m fine. I�m fine. LUKA You need to look after yourself- JULIE I said I�m fine! EZRA Shit KAYLA He�s gonna be fine NURSE This way. They want to keep him under observation KAYLA This is all my fault. I pushed him. Too hard. Told him that I wanted to tell the truth and release a statement about all the shit that him and Mum did so... it was obviously too much for him.Did he say anything? EZRA Huh? KAYLA Well you were with him. Right before it happened. What were you guys talking about? EZRA Err he was just talking about what a colossal disappointment I am. KAYLA Fuck. Really? EZRA Yeah. Just let me have it. Just double barrels. Kicked me in the nuts and just kept on kicking. KAYLA That�s weird? I thought you guys were like best mates after that whole gunman thing happened? EZRA I thought so too. I was just tryna help, just tryna figure out his mess, and that�s how he thanked me... KAYLA What�s wrong? What is it? EZRA I put a hit on that Jasper guy. Just, I wanted Dad to see that I could step up, I was... I was fucking high... KAYLA Wait, how do you even know how to put a hit on someone? Please do not tell me that you contacted Ed�s Mum... EZRA No! Course not! No just...It was his aunt. KAYLA Wait, what are you talking about? EZRA Marie. She erm... she came to the fundraiser. She gave me a card. and... and I made the call, Ed was there, and him and Julie... KAYLA But he�s he okay, right? EZRA Ye... yeah! Yeah. I mean� I mean I think... KAYLA Are you fucking joking? KAYLA You think... you think he�s alright and now you�re deciding tell me?! EZRA A lot of other crazy shit happened! KAYLA Yeah well, Ed�s my family Ez! EZRA What? What are we? KAYLA What you want me choose. EZRA Looks like you already have! So, why don�t you just piss off. And I�ll be here. KAYLA However cruel Dad was to you... it really wasn�t enough. JULIE How much longer is this gonna take? JASPER Not much longer. JULIE Yeah, you said that half an hour ago. JASPER Yeah well, I... I used to have ten fingers, you know that�s...? JULIE That�s not why. JASPER What no I mean the� the encryption here it�s... it�s very serious. I do this wrong, and the hard drive wipes itself. So� I mean I�m not a brave man, I might not even be a good one. But this�? This is what I do. So... It takes what it takes. LUKA Here you are. JULIE Your Mum must think I�m a bitch. LUKA She thinks you�re hungry. JULIE She might be right. JULIE I feel like this is all my fault. LUKA That�s not true. JULIE What if I can�t find Edward? LUKA You will. We will. JULIE If we do... when... when we do, what then? If by some miracle we get through this shit, and no-one�s tryna kill us any more and we just go back to our normal lives... what then, what does it even mean? LUKA I� I don�t understand. JULIE Edward, was an accident. I wasn�t prepared and ever since then the whole things been a shitshow. JULIE I kept him away from his father because I wanted to protect him. Maybe I... maybe I should have been honest with him, even if it meant he hated me, fuck it, so be it. You know, I�ve never been a natural mother. Wasn�t meant to be. He would have been better off with somebody else. LUKA You don�t know that. JULIE I don�t know how to be what it is, that he, he wants me to be. LUKA All that we can do is try. All of us. What matters is you love him. LUKA Try, for once, to be a little kinder to yourself. To see yourself has others might see you. JULIE Which others? LUKA Well me for one. KAYLA Julie� Oh my God, thank God you picked up. JULIE What�s wrong? KAYLA I just heard about what happened in Athens. Is Ed alright? JULIE No. No. Someone took him. KAYLA What? JULIE Well you could ask your Dad... KAYLA No. No, it wasn�t him. It was my brother. JULIE Well, I wouldn�t have thought Mr Abs was capable of organising a hit? KAYLA No look� the only reason he knew how to, is because he met Edward�s aunt at a party. JULIE Edward doesn�t have an aunt. KAYLA So who the fuck was she? JULIE I... I don�t know. Err but... I� I do have the� the laptop we were looking for though. Maybe there�s a� a name on there - someone who could shed some light on.. JULIE I�ll call you back. JASPER Yeah, no don�t come any closer! JULIE Calm down. JASPER I�m calm okay. I�ve done what you asked me too. I now have full access to the laptop. But I will give you nothing before you guarantee me my safety and a little bit of money. JULIE (pissed off, trying not to lose it with him) But I told you, I don�t have any money. LUKA Just hand it over. JASPER You know what this is called? JULIE Fucking stupid? JASPER No, it�s called mutually assured destruction. You try anything funny, I will press this button and the entire hard drive is gone. JULIE It is an absolute miracle to me that you have survived as long as you have. JASPER Stand back. Stand back. KATERINA Argh! MARIE Is everything ready to go? AFONSO Yes, they�re waiting for you at the airfield. LUKA Well, I managed to calm my mother down. She wasn�t very pleased. LUKA What do we do with him? JULIE He got us in. Every job I�ve ever done. LUKA Julie? JULIE There�a no� no mention of Chantaines or anything with the name Cross. LUKA Julie? JULIE What. Oh I don�t care, fucking get rid of him. JASPER What?! What?! JASPER No wait! No please. I have other skills, I am... I know things... LUKA Let me tell you about a nice little hideout in the Albanian countryside. Get your stuff. JASPER Albania. Okay. JULIE Hey. I�m in front of the laptop now... KAYLA And? JULIE Well there�s nothing about Chantaines, or Cross, no, no hits. KAYLA Err okay, what about erm� My Mum�s name� Leila? KAYLA L.E.I.L.A. JULIE No, nothing.Why, why your Mum? KAYLA I erm... I�ve found out what Chantaines is. KAYLA Erm, so back when the company started... My Mum and Dad they got into some trouble. They needed money. So they got it from a very shady guy. An arms dealer. KAYLA He got greedy when the company took off. And my Mum and Dad thought that... they should just� rrm erase him. KAYLA So they hired an assassin to kill him. JULIE And the arms-dealers name was Chantaines? KAYLA No. Erm that was just the codename that they used. Chantaines was the name of my Mum�s fucking French poodle. LUCA He�s gone.. KAYLA So I guess Ed�s not the only one with a messed-up family. JULIE Well I�m desperate here... JULIE Well shit. KAYLA Julie? JULIE It worked. LUKA What is it? JULIE I err... I remember this job. The French Poodle. Spain. Nineteen ninety four. AFONSO All set. Five minutes. JULIE Three decades ago, Damian booked me on a job, to take out a target in Spain. The target was some piece of shit arms dealer called Jean-Luc Bertrand. Turned out that Jean-Luc wasn�t alone. JULIE After I�d finished. JULIE ....his family where there too. JULIE Oh my God. KAYLA What? What is it? Julie? JULIE Taking Edward home. See you soon. LUKA Home? JULIE In Spain. That�s where the original job was. LUKA But what does she mean, home? Julie, who is this woman? JULIE I think she might be Edward�s mum.
