Transcript

What are you doing? Not tonight, you're not. No, no, no, no, no. I don't think so. Not tonight. I don't have to explain to you, all right? I make the rules. You're not coming in here tonight, understand? Your beautiful friends here can come in if they want to. But you're not coming in here. Get it through your head. 'Cause you've had too much to drink. How's that for a reason? Well, I can smell it on your breath, mate. And so can all my colleagues here. Right? That's what I thought. So that's three. That's three, I'm saying that you've had too much to drink. Well, that's how it is, all right? But hang on a minute. Ah, enough. Go on, off you. No, you don't show me your ID. Go on. Huh? What are you still doing here, mate? What, you want to cause a problem? Yeah, that's what I thought. Go on, move on. That's a good boy. I said that's a good boy. What you gonna do? Do something then, man. Yeah, you won't do nothing, mate. Fuck off.
