Fri 23 Oct 8-30PM

Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
With four o'clock gone and no sign of Tony, Carla walked back out from the office into the factory. Hearing a noise from the back, she called out hello but as Jimmy held his breath, no answer came.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Jimmy watched in disbelief as she looked at her watch, them marched into the office, retrieved her handbag and walked straight out of the factory's front door. As the door slammed behind her, he grimaced and banged his head against the shelving in frustration.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He raced out of the back door and quickly leapt back into his car and drive off.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Outside the front of the factory, the christening party was arriving back from the church and, as he climbed out of his car, Tony was shalen to see no sign of Carla's car outside. What did this mean? Had she never arrived? Had Jimmy killed her and taken her car? What was going on?
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He soon got his answer as they'd barely got inside the house and his phone rang. He quickly went out to the back yard and answered: 'Hello?' and an all too familiar voice snapped: 'Where were you?' He told her they'd insisted in photos outside the church and she hissed: 'Well there's been a change of plan now. You meet me here at the flat.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He asked what was wrong with the factory and she snapped: 'You didn't show up.' He told her he would be there just as soon as he could and rang off. He then immediately dialled another number and, as it was answered, cried: 'Jimmy!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He span round at footsteps behind him and Audrey cried: 'Ah, you're out here are you?' He smiled ingratiatingly and told her: 'Two minutes!' She smiled that Maria was putting the sandwiches out and told him not to be long and he replied with a forced smile: 'Of course.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Jimmy told him she'd left the factory before he could do anything and that he was sat outside his flat. Tony asked if she'd seen him following her but Jimmy replied: 'I'm a pretty good driver, remember?' Tony asked what now and Jimmy shrugged: 'Wait for her to come out.' Tony cried: 'What, you're just gonna crack her over the head in broad daylight?' and Jimmy snapped back that he was welcome to come and take his place if he wanted.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Tony told him: 'The key for the flat is on the keys I gave you. The code for the front door is zero one zero eight. She's waiting for me to come over and sign the papers.' Jimmy told him he would wait for her to go to bed then let himself in. Tony protested that it could take hours but Jimmy growled: 'It'll take as long as it takes!' and hung up on him.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
The evening dragged by slowly and, with no sign of him, Carla called Tony again. Getting his voicemail she snarled: 'You are really testing my patience now Tony. Switch on your Blackberry, kiss Miley Cyrus goodbye and get yourself over here pronto! And where's all my stuff? There's no sign of me!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
It was nine o'clock when their guests finally said their goodbyes and as Maria readied the little one for bed, Tony warmed him up a bottle in the microwave. His phone rang, and seeing that it was Carla calling again, he switched it to silent without answering.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Fuming at getting no answer again, Carla decided to call it a night and headed to the bedroom. Outside in the pouring rain, Jimmy watched from his car as the lights went out and opened the car door.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
As Maria came down to get the bottle, Tony told her he might go for a drink. She asked: 'There's nothing you're really worried about is there. This business with Luke will right itself. You'll see.' Tony assured her he was fine and smiled: 'It's nothing that a bit of fresh air and a wee dram won't sort out.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
But as soon as he was in his car he pulled out his mobile phone and frantically dialled Jimmy. As his voicemail kicked in, Tony yelled: 'Jimmy! Don't do it!' but, unbeknownst to him, Jimmy's mobile was laid on the front seat of his car. Gunning the engine into life, Tony roared off down the street.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Jimmy didn't seem able to get the code Tony had given him to work and turned away from the door and looked back at his car. He looked set to go back to it but then suddenly turned round and pressed the intercom buzzer for the flat.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Padding across the flat from the bedroom, Carla picked up the receiver. Hearing only silence, she cried: 'Tony? Is that you?' Getting a gruff: 'Aye' in reply, she pressed the button to open the front door and then unlocked the flat door, leaving it ajar.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
She went over to the dining table where she had laid out the documents for Tony to sign over his share of Underworld to her. As she studied them, the door closed behind her and she snapped: 'What the hell took you so long?' but then gasped in shock as she saw who had just closed it. She stammered: 'You. What are you doing here?' He told her coldly: 'I heard you were back. It made me a bit nervous.' She asked him: 'Why did you do it? What had he ever done to you.' and he shrugged: 'Money makes the world go round.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He continued: 'Dough didn't last long though. Still, I had a couple of months of fun.' She cried: 'A couple of months of fun? You snuffed out a life!' He told her she should have stayed away and she snorted: 'So am I next? Is that the idea?' He replied emotionlessly: 'Pretty much.' She told him, almost pleading: 'You can trust me Jimmy. I won't say a thing.' but he replied icily: 'I wouldn't trust you for a minute but don't worry, it will all be over soon.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He told her he was sorry but he couldn't take any chances and that it was nothing personal and she hissed back: 'You're wrong Jimmy. It couldn't be more personal but I am telling you this, you are messing with the wrong girl.' She picked up a chair and jabbed at him with it but he swiped it from her hands. She grabbed a heavy candlestick but as his fist struck her she dropped it and fell across the table.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Outside, Tony's car screeched to halt and he raced through the pouring rain towards the front doors of the building but would he be in time to save Carla from Jimmy?
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Inside the flat, Carla was fighting for her very life as Jimmy grabbed her and hauled her off the table and threw her onto the couch. She fought hard to get up but his weight was too much for her and his hands closed around her neck.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
As his grip tightened and he began to choke the very life from her, her hands scrabbled frantically behind her. Brushing against the candlestick, she managed to grab it with the tips of her fingers, pull it towards her and then...
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
...the door bust open and Tony cried: 'Jimmy!' but as Jimmy looked up, Carla swing the candlestick with all the force she could muster. There was a sickening thud and Tony watched in horror as Jimmy fell pole axed to the floor.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Carla, sobbing and breathless, pulled herself up and scrabbled away from where she had been lain. Tony asked: 'Are you alright?' She didn't reply and he gasped innocently: 'What is he doing here?' She scowled as she began to get her breath back: 'I don't know Tony. You tell me! I tell you I am waiting here with papers to sign, next thing he is here!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Tony told her he had spoken to him earlier and that he knew she was back. She screamed: 'No-one knew I was back!' and Tony cried: 'So what are you suggesting? That I had home come round to do away with you?' As Tony walked over to Jimmy's still form, she cried: 'Tony, don't touch him. Call an ambulance. Call the police!' He snorted: 'And what would you say to the police?'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
As he bent down to Jimmy, she cried: 'I'll say that he came into my home and attacked me. Out of self defence I hit him!' Tony stood up and told her: 'No. Out of self defence you killed him.' She gasped: 'What?' as she tried to take in the enormity of what he had just said. He snapped her: 'Get out of here. Get your bag and get out!' She stood there numbly and he yelled: 'Carla! Get out of here!' She looked at Jimmy's body and gasped: 'Why didn't you meet me at the factory at four o'clock. He knew I'd be in there didn't he?'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Tony lied: 'I swear on that wee baby's life that I had nothing to do with this but if you want to call the police then do it. Tell them there's a body in your flat with your prints all over the murder weapon. Tell them he killed your lover and you hit him over the head with a piece of wrought iron. See how you get on.' She told him it was self defence and he replied: 'It was. Maybe they'll ignore you being an accessory to Liam's murder by running away to LA. Maybe they'll over look you blackmailing me. Maybe they'll put all this together and lock me up while you go free. But that's a whole lot of maybes for someone in your state.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
She told him she would take her chances but couldn't bring herself to make the call. Tony told her: 'No-one knows he's here. No-one know you're here. I can sort this Carla.' She asked how and he replied: 'Friends in low places. Construction sites.' She spat that he disgusted her and he cried: 'I disgust myself but I can't let you confess to a murder charge, not when there's a way out for both of us.' She hissed: 'Tell me you didn't plan this.' and he told her convincingly: 'Carla, I'm not capable.' Suddenly, she put the phone down and dashed to the bedroom, closing the door behind her.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
As the door closed behind her he rushed back over to Jimmy and nudged at him with his foot. Jimmy groaned and Tony hissed: 'Shut up!' Jimmy asked what the hell was had happened. Tony, having known all along he was still alive, hissed: 'Shut up and play dead!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He leant closer and growled: 'It's your lucky day is what has just happened. Now shut up and pretend to be dead.' and threatened: 'If you don't like the pretence... Not so much as a whimper!' He rushed into the bedroom and Carla cried in shock: 'What do you think you are doing?' but he ignored her and returned with a bed cover which he quickly threw over Jimmy.
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Carla returned dressed with her bag and asked: 'What about the factory? We had an agreement.' Tony gasped in disbelief: 'I think if I take care of this we're quits, don't you? I get on with my life, you get on with yours.' She hissed: 'I so didn't want you to get away with Liam's murder. If he knew what you were up to...' Tony sneered: 'He'd be spinning in his grave like a Catherine wheel, I have no doubt. But if he looked a little closer he would see things differently. See, unlike him I'm not a liar and a cheat and unlike him,. I would choose Maria over you every time.' She told him to go to hell but he cried: 'Maybe I will. What hope do you have Carla?' She whispered quietly: 'One day, I don't know how, but one day you will pay for this!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
With that she was gone and found herself stood numbly outside in the torrential rain. She seemed unable to move but then, seeing a passing taxi, flagged it down and climbed inside telling the driver: 'The airport!' Upstairs, Tony quietly closed the flat door, locked it and cried: 'Jimmy, you can come out now. It's over.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
As Tony poured them a drink, Jimmy cried: 'I could be dead. One inch lower and I could be dead!' Tony smiled: 'I'm sorry about you head but I think this turned out better then we could have ever hoped. I renounced the devil this afternoon and God has smiled on me!' Jimmy asked how come Carla got to walk away from it all but Tony pointed out: 'She hasn't. How would you feel if you had killed tonight? Cheer up. We got away with murder Jimmy!' Jimmy scowled: 'Yeah but I'm the one who has to go to ground while you get to go home and slip into bed with that poor bloke's missus.' but Tony smiled: 'History was written by the winners. I'll drop you home so you can pack a bag before you disappear.'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
Tony arrived home to find Maria still awake with Liam grizzling. He popped a bottle in the microwave and Maria came down and told him: 'I'd just dropped off. I was having this really vivid dream, about Carla.' He smiled that it sounded awful and she continued: 'She was shouting and screaming abuse at me in the street. How dare you take up with my husband.' He told her he couldn't see her returning anytime soon and Maria shrugged: 'Why should she?' He told her to go up to bed and he would feed Liam and she smiled: 'Are you going to make as good a husband as you do a father?' and he smiled back: 'Yes!'
Fri 23 Oct 8-30pm
He kissed her goodnight and, as she went upstairs, turned off the light. Left alone, he suddenly looked absolutely exhausted. Somehow, he had managed to escape ruin by the skin of his teeth again but how long could it last?
