Ext. Manchester canal street (AUGUST 2012) dusk
CREDITS AND MUSIC OVER
We start at the bottom looking up. A man is walking at a steady pace, holding two travel bags, one in each hand. He is wearing black trousers with a white shirt, black tie and smart long coat. He looks serious until he hits the road that parts Canal Street (Chorlton Street). He starts looking above him, asking out loud where he should drop his bags. He agrees with himself and places them next to some railings. He bends down and unzips one of the bags and takes out some bright pink Scull Candy headphones. He connects his phone to them and puts the phone in his inner coat pocket. He starts to walk on and he starts to smile. He nods directly at people as he walks by. While he does this he takes out a detonator which has 12 switches on. One by one, he flicks the switches and the buildings start to blow up behind him. He gets to the top and stands in the middle of Minshull Street where he flicks the last two switches where the last bars / clubs explode. He looks down at the devastation he has caused and cackles in delusional. He opens his arms out:

This is your lots fault. You did this to me and you did it to yourself.
CUT TO:
INT. Central Manchester Police Station - chief constable’s office - Dusk
Explosions go off. The Chief Constable lifts off his chair and looks out of his window to see smoke in the air. He rushes back to his desk and picks up his phone
Martin Smyth
What was that?
(PAUSE)
Where?
(PAUSE)
What? Shit I can’t deal with another gay issue, not now.
CONT.
Fire onto it? Any police on scene now?
(PAUSE)
Good, find out the collateral and get back to me on my mobile. Wait, hazardous?
(PAUSE)
Thank God. Get back to me on casualties.
Martin Smyth puts the phone down and puts on his blazer. He walks out of his room into a panicked and busy office.
MARTIN SMYTH
(SHOUTS)
Right, I can see you all know what has happened. Listen to me as this is not going to be a fuck up anymore than it already is.
(PHONE RINGS - MARTIN ANSWERS)
Yeah?
(PAUSE)
Right, thank you.
(PUTS PHONE DOWN)
Ok, well it’s going to be an easy one. 6 Survivors, all badly injured and expected to die by the time they get to the hospital. I want a 10 mile radius shut down, I want every suspicious person searched. Get armed police on standby. I want control room to send all footage within a 2 mile radius of Canal Street. I want Counter Terrorism on the phone and explain how this happened. I want a press conference setting up by 8 tomorrow and I want all this to happen now.
All officers nod and resume pacing at work. At this moment sirens brake out from the station.

Please let the authorities handle this, this person or these people are extremely dangerous and are possibly armed, if you have any information please contact your local police station.
Reporter 1
Chief Constable, how has this happened? Were there no signs that a whole community would be brought down.
Martin Smyth
Investigations are being led as to why we were not able to stop this before it happened

(INTERRUPTED)
Reporter 2
So this was an attack on gay people? Do gays have a right to be worried that they may be attacked.
Martin Smyth
We do believe that this was an attack directly against the LGBT people however we do not believe that anyone needs to be worried about being attacked right now.
Reporter 1
The Manchester gay pride is in a couple of weeks, should people be worried.
Martin Smyth
Absolutely not. We will have hoped we have the culprits by this time and all security measures will be in place to ensure that all threats are destroyed. That will be all.
Martin walks back into the Council building. His phone starts to ring. He answers to the Deputy Chief Constable.
Martin Smyth
Yes?
Robert Sinclair
Sir, we have a suspect, in fact there’s no denying we have our guy.
Martin Smyth
Name, whereabouts?
Robert
We don’t have that.
Martin Smyth
So all we have is a picture of him or what?
Robert
We have a video clip of him walking up Canal Street.
Martin Smyth
Right, pass it through to the media. Even if it’s not him, I want him behind bars. You can tell the public hates us right now.
Robert
Yes Sir.

INT. BENJAMIN COLEMAN’S HOUSE - MORNING
Benjamin walks down the stairs of his terraced house, in a dressing gown and walks into his living room. He sits on his sofa and turns on his television. The news comes up and the story of the bombings is on. He watches Martin’s news press. The door knocks. Benjamin gets up and opens the door to EmilyEmily. She walks in.
Emily
I thought I heard you last night. What you doing back?
Benjamin Coleman
Haven’t you seen the news?
Emily
No, why, what’s happened?
Benjamin Coleman
The whole of Canal Street got blown up.
Emily
(SHOCKED)
No. You’re kidding me right.
(BENJAMIN SHAKES HIS HEAD)
Oh my god, anyone hurt?
BENJAMIN COLEMAN
Yeah, apparently no one survived. They tried to rescue a few but either died on the way to the hospital or when they got there.
Emily
Jesus.
(POINTS TO THE TV)
Is this it?
Benjamin Coleman
Yeah.
Emily sits down in ore over the news story.
Benjamin Coleman
You fancy a cuppa?
Emily
Yeah, go on then. So how did you find out then?
Benjamin Coleman
(WALKS INTO THE KITCHEN AND STARTS MAKING A TEA)
We were only a street away, heard it. Went outside and the smoke was coming up. Theres not much I can give and I thought I would give Bob and Clare some time, so came back.
Emily
I just can’t believe it. I mean who would do this? Why would they do it?
Benjamin Coleman
Fuck knows. Pretty sick if you ask me.
Emily
How is Clare and Bob? They ok?
Benjamin Coleman
Yeah, up until this moment though. It’s most likely a few of their mates are in that mess.
Emily
Fuck. I should probably give them a call, you know see how everything is.
Benjamin Coleman
Nah. I would leave them to it, give them some time, ‘bout a week or two?
Emily
Yeah, no you’re right.
The door knocks again.
Emily
You want me to get that for you Ben?
Benjamin Coleman
Nah, it’s ok thanks.
Benjamin walks through the living room and opens the door to his Polish neighbor looking furious.
Polish Neighbor
Your fucking ah bin, was at my err door again.
Benjamin Coleman
Mate, I just got back from Manchester last night, I didn’t move the recycling bin.
Polish Neighbor
Who else, huh? Who else move the bin?
Benjamin Coleman
(SIGHS)
I don’t know, I honestly don’t give a shit.
Emily
Fuck off you polish twat. Nobody likes you, you’re just a fucking moaning twat. It’s probably a bunch a kids trying to piss you off.
Polish Neighbor
Fuck off, you English all the same
(INTERRUPTED)
Benjamin Coleman
Look mate, why does it bother you so much? Just leave it where ever, It’s not even my bin, I don’t care about it.
Polish Neighbor
You English, no respect. Absolutely no respect.
Benjamin just shuts the door on him. Looks at Emily and gives a despondent look.
Benjamin Coleman
What the fuck is wrong with him?
Emily
Fuck knows. Oh god, you’ll never guess what’s happened at work.
Benjamin Coleman
What?
Emily
Teresa has only gone off the wall about Sheffield’s recruitment.
Benjamin Coleman
Why are you surprised?
(GOES BACK INTO THE KITCHEN AND FINISHES OFF THE DRINKS)
Emily
You don’t get me. I mean she was screaming the place down. She has been sent home and been suspended.
Benjamin Coleman
Fuck off.
Emily
Honestly, I mean, I thought Matt was going to get the shit kicked out of him.
Benjamin Coleman
What was it over? Yeah I know Sheffield is ridiculous and everything but come on.
Emily
They wanted to make her go to every session to sort the interviewers and management out.
Benjamin Coleman
(COMES BACK IN WITH THE DRINKS)
No way. Why’s that her job?
Emily
Cheers. Exactly, but she didn’t half go off on one.
Benjamin Coleman
Yeah so you said.
Emily
Are you alright?
Benjamin Coleman
Yeah. Just my mum called me last night.
Emily
Serious? What she want.
Benjamin Coleman
Just another drunken call, think she’s probably going to need to go in a home soon.
Emily
Oh god, sorry Ben.
Benjamin Coleman
Nah, it’s alright. Ever since my brother, you know. She just doesn’t know how to interact anymore.
Emily
Well she can’t blame herself.
Benjamin Coleman
She can, she should. It wouldn’t of happened if I was here and those twats just let it happen.
Emily
Come on Ben. Lets get some lunch.
Benjamin Coleman
What do you fancy?
Emily
Bella Italia.
Benjamin Coleman
Pizza, you’re on.

David Copeland, arrested for the 3 bombings that has devastated the lives of London has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. David Copeland, a twenty three old engineer from hampshire planted the three bombs. One on Electric Avenue, Brixton, another in Brick Lane, East End and the third outside the Admiral Duncan pub in Soho. There have been claims that Copeland had associates but police reports say there is no evidence to support this. After leaving the BNP and joining the National Socialist Movement he wanted to act out against communities to trigger a race war.

Martin Smyth
Right, so have Leicester’s police got him?

Not at the moment sir. There was a bit of difficulty after he got to Leicester. We got a list of residents on that street sir, and we saw that Ben Coleman has a military background. We brought up his records and his photo matches with the CCTV footage. We wanted to present this to you first sir.

The teacher is at the front teaching algebra while everyone else sits in silence looking at the front
TEACHER
So if X is five what is A? Anybody.
Boy 1
This is gay sir.
(CLASS SNIGGERS)
When are we ever going to use this is life? Why do we need it?
Teacher
Look, you have to learn it, there are many jobs that you can use algebra for.
BOY 1
Like what sir?
BOY 2
Like being a gay maths teacher.
Teacher
Don’t you dare. Maths teachers aren’t gay.
BOY 1
Of course not sir, we have Coleman for that.
(CLASS SNIGGERS - LOOKS AT DANIEL)
Aint that right Coleman, you’re just a faggot.
BOY 2
Just like his dad. Yeah you take after your dad don’t you?
Daniel doesn’t react but stares at the teacher. Awaiting some intervention, the teacher doesn’t do anything, almost doesn’t know what to do.
Teacher
All right lads, that’s enough.
Boy 1
You still haven’t answered the question sir.
Teacher
What’s that?
Boy 1
Other than gay Coleman over there becoming a maths teacher, what else can it be used for.
Teacher
Look, it doesn’t matter. To get an A in your maths O Level you will need to know algebra, to get anywhere you need a maths O Level, okay?
Boy 2
So we don’t have to turn out like Coleman then?
The class laughs again but the teacher ignores this. The bell goes. Everyone gets up.
Teacher
Right, everyone have a good weekend. Coleman, I want to see you after class.
DANIEL Coleman
Sir?
Teacher
(AFTER ALL THE KIDS HAVE LEFT)
Look, I don’t care what you are, you fuck whoever you like but your causing trouble for me. I mean I’m saying this for your sake. I couldn’t give shit what happens to you Daniel. But I don’t want police enquiries on my ass because you decided it was too much for you and you go an kill yourself.
DANIEL Coleman
Sir?
Teacher
Your homosexuality may be fine by law but people in this country still don’t like it. Your a pedophile to them, I wonder myself why you like all that anal so much.

DANIEL Coleman
Fuck off.

Boy 2
Why don’t you suck my cock?
DANIEL Coleman

DANIEL Coleman

DANIEL Coleman

Nah, ‘cos we wouldn’t want any of that would we.
The lads surround Daniel. Daniel gulps and sighs at his determined faith.
INT. COLEMAN HOUSE - DAY
Daniel Coleman walks in his house. Blooded up, scruffy and bruised. He rushes upstairs. Deborah is in the kitchen, drying crockery and hears Daniel coming in.
DEBORAH
Honey? Is that you?
DANIEL Coleman
Yeah mum.
DEBORAH
Well, don’t be an ignorant little shit and say hi to me.
DANIEL Coleman

DEBORAH
No, get down here now. What’s the matter with you?
DANIEL Coleman
Please, mum. I’m just going to have a shower and

Daniel slowly stumbles down to the kitchen.
DEBORAH
Oh my god, what the hell happened to you.
DANIEL Coleman
Some of the lads at school.
DEBORAH
Why? Why did they do this to you?
DANIEL Coleman
I don’t know.
DEBORAH
You don’t know? Kids don’t just beat the shit out of you for nothing. What did you do? Huh?
DANIEL Coleman
Nothing, mum just leave it.
DEBORAH
Right, I’m going into the school with you and we’re going to sit down with the head teacher.
DANIEL Coleman
No mum, please. I can handle it.
DEBORAH
You shouldn’t have to. Unless you have done something to deserve this then it needs to be sorted out.
Daniel Coleman
Please, mum, I swear to you it’s nothing.
DEBORAH
Don’t lie to me.
Daniel Coleman
It’s nothing.
DEBORAH
It’s not nothing. Tell me now.
Daniel Coleman

Because I’m gay.
There is an awkward silence between the both of them. Deborah places the towel and plate down and leaves the kitchen.

DANIEL Coleman
Whats going on.
GEORGE
Your brothers joining the TA.
DANIEL Coleman
Oh right cool.
GEORGE
We’re also discussing how to handle your dirty little habit.
Daniel Coleman
What do you mean?
Benjamin Coleman
Dad, that’s not fair.
GEORGE
No, what’s not fair is that one of my sons is a faggot.
DEBORAH
George, please. It’s just a phase.
DANIEL Coleman
It’s not a phase.
GEORGE
For your sakes it better be.
Benjamin Coleman
Dad, he can’t help it.
DANIEL Coleman
Look, lets just forget about my issues. So whats this about the TA.
GEORGE
Yeah, he’s got the balls to join the Army. A proper man.
Benjamin Coleman
Shut the fuck up.
GEORGE
Don’t you be disrespecting me as well.
Daniel Coleman
How am I disrespecting you?
George stands and confronts Daniel. He grabs Daniel round the neck. Benjamin stands and pulls George off to the ground. George tries to punch towards Ben but he punches George in the stomach.

INT. COLEMAN HOUSE - NIGHT
Daniel walks into the kitchen and sketchily greets his parents in the dining room.
GEORGE
What’s up with your gloomy face.
Deborah
George, he’ll be just as upset as you with Ben gone out to Bosnia or Serbia or whether it is.
GEORGE
I suppose you’re right. Since Ben has gone, our faggy son has no one to look after him now.
Daniel Coleman
Thanks George.
Deborah
We’re having fish and chips tonight Daniel.
Daniel Coleman
I’m alright thanks mum, I’m off out tonight.
Deborah
Oh, who with?
Daniel Coleman
Just a couple of friends, hanging out you know.
Deborah
Ok, well have fun.
GEORGE
So your mother offers you food and you can’t even spare a few minutes for her and her?
Daniel Coleman
Mum, do you want me to stay?
GEORGE
It’s not even that, it’s your fucking indecency boy.
Daniel Coleman
What, so one night I’m going out, you kick off?
Deborah
Boys please, George it’s fine.
GEORGE
No. your brother has just gone on off to fucking war and you piss off out, probably going to fuck around even though your poor mother is worried sick and just needs your support.
Daniel Coleman
Oh yeah, cos I’m not worried at all about Ben. I’m surprised you’re not happy that I’m off out, away from you.
GEORGE
This isn’t about me, this is about your mother.
Deborah
George, calm down, it’s fine.
George gets up and goes into the kitchen.
GEORGE
You’re an ungrateful little shit.
Daniel Coleman
Oh fuck off. You only think like that because I’m not a perfect straight son.
GEORGE
You’ve never been a good son, constantly moaning about shite.
Daniel Coleman
Oh yeah, cos that’s the way you felt when I was on the football team.
GEORGE
You weren’t a fag back then. Oh and isn’t that why you got kicked off?
Daniel Coleman
Yeah, cos the coach was just as much of a wanker than you are.
George walks up to Daniel fiercely.
GEORGE
I’m going to beat some respect into you in a minute if you don’t watch your language.
Daniel Coleman
Really? So I should just put up with the comments then?
GEORGE
I mean it Daniel.
Daniel Coleman
Come on then father. Come on. Beat me, hit me for I am your son. Your disappointment in life because I shag lads and love it. I suck on their dicks out of choice, I’m just a fucking female reject in a mans body. Come on hit your fucking gay, faggy son (elaborates) dad.
George grabs Daniel and chucks him on the floor and starts hitting him in the face. Daniel laughs at first but then starts to feel the pain. Deborah runs in and tries to get her husband off. George continues to punch Daniel. The door knocks and George stops, looks round to his wife, who slowly walks to the door and opens it to Graham.
Deborah
George, it’s your brother.
Graham
Deborah, are you ok?
Deborah
Just come in.
George stands up, but stays over his beaten sons body. Daniel lays awake but too shocked to move. Graham walks into the kitchen.
Graham
Shit, what’s going on? Daniel are you ok?
Graham runs to Daniel and pulls George out of the way.
Graham
Call for an ambulance you idiots, he’s barely breathing.
FADE TO:
EXT. GRAHAM’S HOUSE - DAY
Daniel and Graham get out of Graham’s car. Daniel has a very swollen and bruised face.
Graham
We’ve all agreed that you need to stay with me for a while.
Daniel Coleman
Thanks Graham.
Graham
It’s ok, grab your bag and I’ll show where you will be sleeping. You’ll need to pay a bit of board though mate.
Daniel Coleman
Yeah, course.
CUT TO:
INT. GRAHAM’S HOUSE, DANIEL’S BEDROOM - DAY
Graham walks in while Daniel is laying on his bed reading a magazine.
Graham
Come on, we need to get some shopping in.
Daniel
(NODS)
Ok, cool.
Graham
Fancy a bit of lunch as well?
Daniel Coleman
Yeah sure, don’t think you can call it lunch at three O’Clock though.
Graham
Yeah, well I don’t like the word tea. It’s a drink not a bloody eating time.
Daniel Coleman
(LAUGHS, GETS OFF HIS BED)
Ok then, lets go shopping and get some lunch.
Graham
How’s your face?
Daniel Coleman
Aching and a bit sore but it’ll be fine.
Graham
There’s my boy. Come on then.
CUT TO:
INT. CAFE - DAY
Daniel and Graham are sitting at a table. Daniel with a pepsi and George with a coffee.
Graham
You know your dad loves you right?
Daniel Coleman
Yeah cos the bruises around my face really highlights that.
Graham
Look, I know it’s cliche but he’s just scared. Fags might be able to fuck each other by law but I doubt this world will ever be able to accept something as unnatural as you and what you do.
Daniel Coleman
Thanks Graham. Those supporting words really uplifted me.
Graham
Oh come on, it’s hard to accept that you don’t like women. It’s hard to understand mate.
Daniel Coleman
So that gives my dad an excuse to do this does it?
Graham
No, of course not. That’s why you’re staying with me so your dad can figure things out.
Daniel Coleman
Ok, that’s fine.
Graham
Good lad.
(WAITRESS BRINGS FOOD UP)
Come on then, eat up.
Daniel looks at his food and almost vomits.
Graham
Oh come on, I’ve just paid for this, you’ve got to have some.
Daniel Coleman
Yeah give me a minute.
FADE TO:
INT. GRAHAM’S HOUSE, LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Daniel is watching TV while Graham is doing a crossword puzzle in the newspaper. Graham looks over at Daniel and stands.
Graham
Want a drink?
Daniel Coleman
(PAUSES)
What kind you making.
Graham
Anything, I don’t mind.
Daniel Coleman
Yeah can I have a tea then please?
Graham
Yeah, course.
Graham goes into the kitchen and starts making a tea. He takes out a pill and drops it into the cup. He makes the tea and takes it into Daniel.
Graham
There you go.
Daniel Coleman
Cool, thanks.
(DANIEL TAKES THE CUP AND GRAHAM SITS DOWN)
Are you not having one?
Graham
Nah, I was just bored needed something to do.
Daniel Coleman
Oh, cool. Thanks Graham
Daniel starts to drink the tea. He starts to become drowsy. He stands up and drops his cup. Graham rushes to Daniel and settles him down on the sofa.
Graham
It’s ok Daniel. You’ve had a rough couple of days. Just sit back, yeah.
Daniel Coleman
I don’t feel too good. I think I need to go bed.
Graham
No, no. You just need to sit down here yeah.
Daniel nods. Graham kneels down and starts to stroke his leg. Daniel slightly notices however does not have the effort to stop it. Graham continues delicately but then moves Daniel so that he is laying on the sofa. Graham gets onto the sofa over Daniel and lifts Daniel’s t-shirt, he starts to kiss his body from his waistline up to his nipples. Daniel starts to object quietly, Graham continues and slowly moves his hand up to Daniels mouth, covering it. Graham takes Daniel’s t-shirt off and kisses his nipples again. He starts to move upward and onto his neck. His left hand moves down to his jeans and gropes Daniel’s penis and his right holds the back of Daniels neck. Graham lifts up from Daniel and unbuttons Daniels jeans. Daniel shakes his head but is disillusioned by Graham calmly telling him to be quiet. Graham pulls down Daniel’s trousers and gropes Daniel again. He gets off Daniel and pulls the jeans completely off. He picks Daniel up and kisses his neck as he takes him upstairs to Daniels bedroom.
CUT TO:
INT. COLEMAN HOUSE, DINING ROOM - DAY
Deborah is crying into a note. George is comforting her and Graham is looking sheepish at the other end of the table. George looks up at Graham but doesn’t know what to say.
Deborah
What the fuck happened Graham? You were supposed to take care of him. But no, he stays with you for seven months and he kills himself.
Graham
He seemed fine. He never mentioned anything like this.
Deborah
We’ve got to call the police, he might still be out of there.
George
Of course we will.
CUT TO:
INT. GRAHAM’S HOUSE - DAY
Police officers search the house. None of Daniel’s clothes have been taken, however they find bottles of pills and chloroform.
CUT TO:
INT. POLICE STATION, INTERVIEW ROOM - DAY
Graham is sitting by the table with two police officers.
Police Officer Smith
Mr Coleman, we’ve brought you in here because we’ve found pills that tests show massive amounts of flunitrazepam in them. The most common pill to have this is rohypnol. Were you prescribed these Mr Coleman? Do you tend to suffer with anxiety or sleep deprivation Mr Coleman?
Graham
No.
Police Officer Smith
No you weren’t prescribed them? Or no you do not suffer from anxiety or sleep deprivation?
Graham
Both.
Police Officer Smith
So why is that you have rohypnol in your house then Mr Coleman?
Graham
Just in case.
Police Officer Smith
I see and can you explain the bottle of chloroform please Mr Coleman?
Graham
Daniel used to have panic attacks.
Police Officer Smith
When did these occur?
Graham
(HESITATES)
Soon after he moved in.
Police Officer Smith
I see and calling for professionals was out of the question?
Graham
I didn’t think.
Police Officer Smith
I see.
CUT TO:
INT. COLEMAN HOUSE, LIVING ROOM - DAY
The two police officers sit down as the same George and Deborah.
Police Officer Smith
I’m afraid the search for Daniel is going to cease. All the evidence and lack of findings has put a halt on proceedings and we have no choice but to see this as suicide.
George
What’s happening with Graham?
Police Officer Smith
He’s going to trial in two weeks. I’m afraid it doesn’t look good. All the evidence points to Mr Coleman sexually assaulting Daniel. In fact he hasn’t actually denied the charges as such. But we believe that this caused him to take his life. Do you mind if you can clarify why Daniel was living with his uncle?
George
We’ve already told you, I had a bit of a scrap with Daniel because he was acting out a bit, you know after his brother went of to Bosnia.
Police Officer Smith
Yes I understand that much, but how was he acting out? I’m sorry to ask but this could help us with the trial and it’s not conclusive that Daniel has killed himself. He could still be out there and this might be able to lead us to him if any possibilities arise.
Deborah looks to George. He nods.
George
Well had just come out as a fag.
Police Officer Smith
You mean he was gay?
Deborah
Yes, it was a shock to us all. Especially George. I mean it’s just not natural.
Police Officer Smith
And so you and Daniel fought over this?
George
Yes.
(WELLS UP SLIGHTLY)
Well he was disrespectful to me. He kept shoving this whole puff thing onto us all.
Deborah
We still loved him.
(BECOMES TEARY)
He just didn’t understand how much he had changed. He didn’t understand that what he was, what he was doing was wrong. But we still loved him. We just wanted our Daniel back.
Police Officer Smith
I see. Well as I have stated, it’s been six months now. Although the possibility is there, we don’t believe there is much chance we’ll be able to find Daniel. Thank you for your time. We’ll be in contact regarding Mr Coleman.
Deborah bursts out into tears. George begins to comfort her.

Your father didn’t didn’t do anything. But after a little misunderstanding, we all thought it was best for Daniel to stay at Graham’s.
George
But seven months in, Graham came round and Daniel left this.
George passes Ben the suicide note left by Daniel. Ben starts to breath heavily.
George
The police searched his house for any evidence and.
(PAUSES)
well, it turns out that Graham is a bit of a sick bastard.
Ben nods, his face starts to become pale but his expression slowly fades to anger.
Deborah
What your father means is that Graham was sexually abusing your brother.
George
We had no idea son.
Benjamin Coleman
You better not.
(SNAPS HIS CIGARETTE)
So this little fight, this wouldn’t be because Danny is a fucking fag would it?
George looks down away from Ben and towards Deborah
Deborah
Ben, there was nothing we could do.
Ben continues to be angry however a tear drops down his face.
Deborah
The police have stopped searching for Daniel.
Ben nods.
George
Honestly son. There was nothing we could do.
Benjamin Coleman
I heard you. But if I find out that you knew what was going on, if there was more to why my fucking brother left this household. I don’t know what I’ll do. I saw a lot out there, yet I couldn’t do anything about any of it. I left my brother and as soon as I did he’s dead.
Deborah
Ben, please.
(INTERRUPTED)
Benjamin Coleman
Don’t you dare. I’m moving out.
George

Benjamin Coleman
Because then how could I tend to all you lovely people?
Everybody Laughs, Sandra and Emily walk out.

Sandra

Everybody laughs but almost cringes at the same time.
Benjamin Coleman
Hold up, hold up. You’re not a virgin?
Everybody laughs again but Sandra pulls a concerned look.
Sandra
Still as tight my darling.
Benjamin Coleman
Oh dear. Well I’ll see about that tonight I suppose.
Everybody laughs, Eric comes outside.
Eric
Ben, you’ve got a polish woman outside.
Benjamin Coleman
What the fuck now. Excuse me for a second.
Ben goes inside and squeezes past everyone to see a polish woman and her daughter.
Benjamin Coleman
Hi?
Sabrina
My mother is wondering why you’ve moved the bin again.
Ben looks outside to the right.
Benjamin Coleman
(SIGHS)
I haven’t moved the bin.
Mother says something in Polish.
Sabrina
She says it’s been moved again and it’s getting ridiculous.
Benjamin Coleman
Look, fairdoes I moved it the very first time. I was drunk, but I actually thought it was yours because it wasn’t in front of my house when I moved in. But since, I haven’t moved the fucker.
Polish Neighbor comes out, shouting in Polish to his daughter. The daughter looks away towards Ben.
Sabrina
He’s just repeating everything that’s been said.
Benjamin Coleman
(NODS AND LOOKS OVER TO THE POLISH NEIGHBOR)
Look, I didn’t move the bin. It’s not even my bin, even more to the fucking point, it’s only a fucking recycling bin.
Polish guy starts shouting at his daughter again. She looks awkward and fed up.
Benjamin Coleman
(SHOUTS)
Oi. Stop shouting at your daughter. It’s not her fault. Where’s the fucking bin?
Steps outside and sees the bin a couple of doors up. He walks up and spins the around and jumps on it. Snapping the edges. He picks it up and rips it apart. He walks back to his house and puts it in his black bin. Emily runs out.
Emily
For fucks sake. What do you want?
Benjamin Coleman
Go back inside.
The mother walks off. The Polish Neighbor starts shouting at his daughter again. Ben grabs the Polish Neighbor by his collar.
Benjamin Coleman
I’ve told you to stop shouting at your daughter. The matters been sorted. Done and dusted.
Benjamin lets go of the Polish Neighbor. He shouts as he walks off back in his house.
Sabrina
I’m really sorry.
Benjamin Coleman
It’s not your fault. What’s your name?
Sabrina
Sabrina.
Benjamin Coleman
How old are you?
Sabrina
Seventeen.
Benjamin Coleman
(NODS)
Fancy a drink?
Sabrina
(SMILES)
Yeah sure.
Benjamin Coleman
Cool.
Ben lets Sabrina in but notices a hooded man across the street staring over at him.
Benjamin Coleman
(SHOUTS)
You all right mate?
The man walks off. Ben shakes his head and walks back into his house.
CUT TO:
INT. HELSINKI, DANCE FLOOR - NIGHT

Benjamin Coleman

Emily
Ben, you can’t say that.
Benjamin Coleman
(SHOUTS)

CUT TO:

Emily

Benjamin Coleman
Give it time.
A Door Supervisor starts yelling near the entrance while pushing the same hooded man; from Ben’s house, out.
Door Supervisor

Ben looks to Emily.
Benjamin Coleman
That looks like the same guy from earlier.

No, the guy across the street, staring at me.

Excuse me. That is you in the pictures. Are you still going to deny these charges?
Benjamin Coleman
(WELLS UP)
Daniel.
Detective Constable 1
Mr Coleman.
Benjamin Coleman

Daniel
David, I understand your lust.
David
Excuse me.
Daniel
You want more than this political garbage, you want action for something to happen.
David
Right and you want the same?
Daniel
Absolutely. We need to work together and start the revolution needed, against the non pure in this country.
David
We need to make a race war before it’s too late.
Daniel
Exactly.
David
It’s Daniel right? I’ve heard you speak. Good words, very good words.
Daniel
Thank you.
David
It’s good to meet someone alike. Everyone here, too scared and cowardly to do what is necessary for the good of this country.
Daniel
There’s a movement which is more of our taste, who want to do what we want.
David
Go on.
Daniel
The NSM.
David
What the National Socialist Movement? I never thought about it.
Daniel
Yeah, as far as I know. They want everything we want and are willing to go that far.
David
Just between me and you, I think we need to sort this out ourselves. We could easily make them suffer.
Daniel

Go on.

Martin Smyth
Mr Coleman?
Benjamin Coleman
Yes?
Martin Smyth
My name is Martin Smyth. I am the chief constable of the Manchester metropolitan police. I have been leading the investigations of the Canal Street bombings however firstly I would like to apologise for wrongfully arresting you. We should have analysed the camera footage a lot more closely.
Benjamin Coleman
Have you found Daniel?
Martin Smyth
Unfortunately not Mr Coleman. We believe he has now travelled to London. It’s gay pride in less than 24 hours.
Benjamin Coleman
You think.
(INTERRUPTED)
Martin Smyth
Yes, we think he is going to blow something up. The reason I’m calling is that the police killing a homosexual, that is if we find him, won’t be good for anyone.
Benjamin Coleman
You think you are going to have to kill him?
Martin Smyth
He is a dangerous man Mr Coleman. I have my suspicions that Daniel Coleman was related to the Admiral Duncan bombings of April 1999. This was a very unpleasant situation. Benjamin I want you to go to London now and find him, speak to him before the police get to him. Please go to London now.
FADE TO:
EXT. LONDON BRIDGE, GAY PRIDE - DAY
MUSIC OVER
Daniel is amongst the crowd in the middle watching with others as the parade slowly moves beside. He puts on the headphones, he starts to become teary. Armed police officers walk slowly each side of the bridge towards the middle looking out for Daniel. Benjamin is doing the same but running, pushing people out of the way. He clocks the headphones. Daniel turns around and grabs hold of the ledge, pulling himself up. Benjamin runs towards him, Daniel acknowledges his presence. Benjamin breaks down into tears, Daniel gulps and sees the police coming closer. He nods towards his brother.
Daniel Coleman
I am Gods wrath, I am Jesus’s judgement, I am the Holy Spirits suffocation over evil. Hear me now for I am the trinity of christianity and evil will suffer!
Daniel chucks a book on the ledge, he takes out a detonator and falls backwards into the river. As he does so he presses the button. Police officers push people as far away from Daniel as possible. Benjamin runs to the ledge as he screams out in pain. The police back away from the crowd as no explosions go off.
CUT TO:
EXT. ADMIRAL DUNCAN PUB – DAY
Benjamin is with Emily staring at the pub holding Daniel’s journal.
Benjamin Coleman
He blew this place up in 1999. He blew up Canal Street and tried to blame it all on me. He tried to blow up London Bridge but for whatever reason it didn’t work. He did all of this yet I can’t stop hurting, I can’t stop thinking it’s my fault.
Emily places her hands round Ben’s shoulders.
Benjamin Coleman
It’s my fault, I left him. I let my dad beat him to shit and my uncle fuck him (shouts) Shit. It’s my fault, he was supposed to be dead. All I want is for him to be here, for him to hear that I’m sorry.
Benjamin’s phone rings, it’s his father.
Benjamin Coleman
What do you want George?
George
Son, it’s your mother, erm, in fact it’s your uncle and your mother and your house. Oh Jesus, I’m so glad you’re alright.
Benjamin Coleman
What are you going on about?
George
Our houses were blown up, thank fuck you weren’t home.
Benjamin Coleman
Hold up, what do you mean our houses were blown up?
George
I don’t know but someone has blow up your house, our house and your uncle’s house. Oh god your mothers dead Ben.
Ben drops his phone and opens the book to the last page Daniel wrote in and reads it out to Emily.
Benjamin Coleman
And those who did this to the hundreds of people, have been silenced. Their souls last forever in eternity of damnation. Homosexuality was brought down on me by the dawn of evil. They did this to me, they turned their backs on me and now they suffer. They suffer alongside me. More like me will fight back until tolerance is received, for tolerance is equality.
Emily
It’s not your fault.
Benjamin Coleman
He didn’t want to blow up London Bridge. He wanted to kill me.
