You two should be in bed.

Do you have any idea how late it is?

We just want to see them come past the farm.

There's nothing out there.

Come on.

back to your beds.

TRUCK HORN BLARES

Shouldn't we just let them over take us?

You do realise this is a race you signed up for?

I'm really starting to lose my patience with this lot.

How about giving them a nudge?

If I give 'em a nudge they're gonna wind up in the next field.

TRUCK HORN BLARES

Don't get me wrong. I'm not averse to us pushing our weight around

but this lot hardly the competition, are they?

Kaye. What are you doing here?

Ah...

Seriously good to see you.

I tried calling you but... - No reception.

Part of the appeal of this place.

So, you here for the surf?

No. No, um...

I need a favour.

This is Michael.

How's it going?

It's going good, thank you.

What kind of favour are we talking about?

KAYE: We won't stay for long.

A couple of days, tops. - No problem.

So do you two work together?

Erm...

It's complicated.

He's a former patient.

Oh right. So...

you and him are...

Err... Yeah.

I mean we didn't get together until after he'd finished his treatment but...

yeah, we are...

Good for you. I mean it, Kaye.

To hell with medical ethics. He looks well worth it...

Looks like we're going to be flatmates for a bit.

Yeah are you sure that's alright?

Mi casa, su casa.

D'you surf?

Never had a chance, but I'm up for it.

Never too late to start.

Michael is still recovering from a major operation.

Looks fighting fit to me.

Gross!

JENNY: Roman are you alright?

Let's get out of the car.

JENNY: What happened?

MEGAN: Zane.

Mum... He's bleeding.

JENNY: Right get the first aid kit. It's in the car.

ZANE: I'm alright. I'm alright.

I'm alright.

JENNY: You're OK. - ZANE: I'm alright.

MEGAN: Babe, oh my God! - ZANE GROANS

It's just a cut. Maybe a bit of concussion. He'll live.

I think we've literally blown a gasket.

LOU GRUNTS

LOU: Hanmei?

Hanmei? - HANMEI: Mum, I can't open it.

Do you see it?

I see it.

CREATURE GURGLES

Is it dead?

GUNSHOTS

Is now.

JENNY: What are you doing? - What's it look like I'm doing?

HANMEI: I've got a target.

Hold on. Hold on.

LOU: Maybe they thought we were firing at them.

Let's just give it a minute.

Fire in short bursts.

I'll make a break for the trees, then circle round.

Excuse me, you're going to do what?

Get us a new set of wheels.

Roman, put the gun down.

Yeah. - We're gonna find a solution

that doesn't involve senseless violence.

That Hot hatch isn't going to flip over by itself.

We don't need their help, Mum. We can do it, you and me.

ROMAN: Mum... what are you doing? Get back!

RUBY: They're trying to kill us...

MEGAN: Mum... - LOU: Female.

Looks like you've got a bit of engine trouble.

That's right.

I was wondering if we might be able

to come to some sort of mutually beneficial arrangement.

Go on. - JENNY: Well...

You've got two vehicles.

Both of them in various states of disrepair.

You only need one.

What if we help you flip the car over

then you let us take what we need from the truck?

DOG PANTS - HANMEI: Hey.

Louise Collins.

People call me Lou.

Jennifer Donahue. Jenny.

This is Roman. My youngest.

He was meant to be getting ready for his GCSEs but, well...

we've had to put that on the back burner for various reasons.

And that's Meg, my daughter.

At first she was against the race but...

actually she's responded remarkably well.

JENNY: Oh and that's her boyfriend Zane... - What is she doing?

JENNY:...he doesn't say much... - She gets like this when she's nervous.

JENNY CHATTERS INDISTINCTLY - Really embarrassing time

to be related to her.

JENNY: Oh and... that's Ruby.

She was meant to be racing with her sister but they had a row about something.

She can come across as a bit hostile when you first meet her...

Oh and you've already met my dog... - LOU: Yeah.

I don't need to know the name of your dog.

You're good people, I get it.

Let's roll.

ROMAN: How can it weigh this much?

Depleted uranium alloy.

Knock yourself out.

D'you reckon it'll fit?

I'm not a mechanic, Meg.

Once I've mastered the basic principles of the combustion engine

I'll let you know.

It'll fit.

Mm-hm.

HE SIGHS

Hey.

Hey.

Is he bothering you?

Oh... It's OK. I like dogs.

ROMAN: I figured you'd be more of a cat person.

What made you think that?

I don't know. I just supposed...

Cats are selfish.

They only think about themselves.

Dogs have a personality.

They're loyal and obedient.

I don't know about that...

Brutus, he can be well behaved most of the time

but the minute he sees a squirrel, pfft, forget about it.

LOU: Ugly little fuckers, aren't they?

You know, it was the strangest thing.

He just walked straight out into the road.

Maybe he did it on purpose.

Wouldn't you want to die, if you turned into one of them?

I'm not planning on doing that.

I'm going to win this race.

You seem pretty sure about that.

No doubt in my mind.

This time tomorrow me and my family, be gazing up at the stars.

That's why we're doing this.

How about you?

Good fucking question.

SOUND OF WAVES

SEAGULL SQUAWKS

RUBY (VO): Why don't you just not go?

Seriously Kaye. We could have so much fun together.

I have to. Mum needs me.

I need you. Michael needs you. You definitely need him.

I can't.

I feel like something's wrong.

It's like she's got a hold on you. SHE SIGHS

She's in trouble.

Listen.

I want you to do something for me.

It's really important that Michael stays here.

Well, that's easier said than done.

He strikes me as the kind of person who does what he wants.

Then you're just gonna have to find a way to persuade him.

Can you do that for me?

Sure.

She had to go deal with some work stuff.

♪ Like the sunshine ♪

I should go after her.

The thing about Kaye is, work always comes first.

If you turn up at Kiloran that could be seriously bad for her career.

She could get struck off.

She doesn't want you there, Michael.

She's the same as Mum.

No one is ever gonna be as important to her as her job.

You can't compete.

No point trying.

If you want my advice

the best thing you can do right now is just...

stay put.

JENNY (VO): Try it again.

ENGINE SPLUTTERS AND STOPS

JENNY: The lights are on so the battery must be working.

Clearly it's something else.

I thought you said the problem was with the battery?

The problem was with the battery, but we couldn't find any other problem

because the main battery was flat.

So what's the problem now?

I don't know, Mum. I'm not a mechanic.

Well, you're good with computers.

They're machines.

They're not...

I'm not even gonna answer that.

MEGAN: We're screwed.

LOU: What's the hold up?

We need to get going.

Yeah. There's a problem with the ignition system.

HT lead to your coil's gone.

This car's going nowhere.

And before you ask, nothing doing from the tow truck.

It's diesel.

Hand over the keys to the sports car.

That's not gonna happen.

I really hope you know what you're doing, because I've got two settings

nice, not nice.

And right now...

how I'm feeling? Let me tell you, it's not nice.

I don't care about you or your settings.

Hand over the keys.

Oh you want 'em that bad?

You take 'em.

JENNY: Ruby...

I want you to put the gun down.

Mum...

You know you're not gonna fire it - so just put it down...

ROMAN: Mum.

What is it Roman? - There's someone coming.

You deserve a slap for that.

Lucky for you I've wasted enough time already.

You in need of some assistance?

Cos we have an amazing selection of handheld meat snacks.

You wouldn't happen to have a spare HT lead would you?

Cheese? We got an HT lead back there?

CHEESE: What does HT stand for?

I got no idea.

CHEESE: I mean, we've got leads, we got all kinds of leads...

We've got leashes, and harnesses, and belts and braces...

Hang on. I think I've got something that might help...

I was saving this for later but, given your situation

I think you guys probably need it more than we do.

Oh, this is serious guys.

That's true, but it would be a lot less serious

if you're stoned out of your mind.

CHEESE: Yo listen, yeah, you could always go back

to the farm just up the track back there.

According to this Dead Water Farm

is the third biggest farm in the whole of Warwickshire

and it specialises in organic animal husbandry

I'm seeing green tractors, guys.

Green tractors with shiny HT leads.

EL CAPITANO: Zip-it but zzz.

Don't listen to him. The only crops that you need

are the ones inside that six-skinner.

JOKER JONES: Listen you're doing great.

Just keep that anxiety on an even keel

and if the mooks try to bite you

you bite them back.

I've lost so much time.

Yeah look at that. Now, we're down to fucking sixth.

Don't you want to see your mum?

Put your seat belt on, we're leaving.

You know you want to help.

Fucking hell.

Right, what do you need?

A lift to a farm?

Get in.

Not you, Jenny.

Her.

Why me?

Cos you and I gonna have words on the way.

You stay here. - HANMEI: OK

Keep your eyes open, there could be more of them out there.

What makes you think they'll even help us?

LOU: What happened?

Something must have happened.

To make you this cynical.

Maybe it's a combination of things I don't know

but something's happened.

Anger.

It's my guess there's a man involved.

Are we still talking about this?

LOU: Nothing but trouble, men.

Take this race.

No woman would ever think up something this stupid

It's in-built in our DNA.

Survival.

Not being idiotic dickheads. - RUBY: You're racing.

LOU: I'm doing it for love.

One of our greatest weaknesses, I know, but...

Also one of our greatest strengths.

If you can't open yourself up to love, what's the point of living?

RUBY: Love is just nature's way of tricking people into reproducing.

Not for me and Sue it's not.

RUBY: Look, it's not stealing if we leave them money...

It's breaking and entering.

Which isn't even a crime, it's a misdemeanour.

We should at least take a look.

What do you want?

Ideally some kind of high performance sports car if one's available.

Failing that, any kind of petrol engine will do.

We need an HT lead.

There's a tractor in the barn.

That'll do it.

Amazing.

I haven't had her out in a while

MEGAN: Couldn't that just be a herd of foxes or something?

It's a leash of foxes.

ROMAN: Looks like they're heading towards the farm.

We have to warn the others.

There are some flares in the truck.

It's not safe to be firing flares. - Don't worry.

I'm quick.

You shouldn't be out at night.

It's not safe.

RUBY: We were aware there was an element of risk involved.

It's not just yourselves your putting in danger.

No, and we really appreciate what you're doing for us.

Are you lot out of your minds?

Have you any idea what you've just done?

Well, to be fair, we didn't do anything.

You think they won't see that?

Course they will.

And then they'll come looking.

They always come looking.

I've made a terrible mistake.

I should never have opened the door.

LOU: You're not just gonna leave us here.

You need to get in your car and go.

Now.

Before it's too late.

MICHAEL: Is it inside the car?

There's nothing out there.

Motorway.

You've already said that.

Is it all around us?

Mm-hm.

Is it silvery?

That's cheating. - You haven't even said what it is yet.

Moonlight. - Yes. Finally.

That's not a thing.

Moonlight's a thing. - That's not a thing!

KAYE: We read you, over.

We're in a bit of a hard situation here.

Is it, is it Ruby? What's happened?

ROMAN: We're not entirely sure

but we think she might be in danger

We're not exactly in the best position to help.

KAYE: What is your position?

Our position is really, really bad.

No, she means which place are we in.

Oh, err... sixth.

ROMAN: We're by a farm on a B road.

OK, we're only a couple of places behind you, we'll be with you as soon as we can.

ROMAN: Oh, great, we'll send our coordinates now.

It's reinforced steel.

It'd take a tank to break through that.

Quick. We need to get inside.

JESSIE: We bring the cows in every evening.

People think mooks only eat humans

but they'll make do when they're hungry.

And they're always hungry.

LOU: Your dad seems wound pretty tight.

JESSIE: He's just over protective.

Since Mum left, he's been looking after us

and running the farm pretty much single handed.

What happened to your mum?

Uh, she moved to the city.

She asked me to move in with her but...

I said no.

Dad needs me here.

LOU: The woman I love

lives on an island

thousands of miles away.

Doesn't mean we love each other any less.

JESSIE: How come you didn't go with her?

COW BELLOWS

I wasn't invited.

Mister Larssen asked her to go with.

If you're gonna rebuild the world

you need a top notch civil engineer

and Sue's the best there is.

RUBY: Didn't you get pissed off when she left you behind?

They don't just give out tickets to everyone.

LOU: They offered her a plus one but there's three of us.

The plan was, I was gonna join her later with our daughter.

but err, turns out it wasn't as straight forward as we thought.

You must really love each other.

We do.

People aren't as bad as you think.

Although some have their moments.

It's better if we stick together.

You know, safety in numbers.
