Where is she?

Meanwhile in Birmingham...

'Last night one of our men got his throat cut in lock up.' Tommy told them the next morning at the meeting 'I got a telegram saying it was sabini who ordered it and-'

' it says Thomas Shelby is next' Arthur told them.

'If our men think we can't look after them in prison then they won't work for us.' Tommy reminded them.

'That's what you're worried about?' Pol questioned

'This isn't the first time that we've been threaten in our family and it definitely won't be the last.' John reminded them

"What are we going to do about it?' polly questioned

'You two,' Tom said pointing at some peakys. 'break a few windows get yourself arrested tell them your Peaky Blinders and they will move you to Green, find a man who did this and sort it out.' Tom instructed 'instead of breaking a few windows can we pinch a car I'm still on the donkey?' one of them questioned grinning.

'I don't care what you do, just get yourself arrested.' Tom told them sternly. 'And before you all laugh a boys dead, he was just a kid.' Tommy told them. 'Will start a fund for his family'

'Agreed' Polly said 'Right is that it? can I go?' she questioned

'Well as company treasurer I do need your permission to take 1000 guineas out.' Tommy said nonchalantly.

'On what?' polly questioned suddenly giving her full attention.

'On a horse.' Tommy told her calmly.

'1000 guineas on a horse? Why don't you tell me about this?' polly yelled.

'You were busy with Michael' Tom told her calmly

'So the absence of common sense you boys had the idea-' polly shook her head annoyed.

'look Polly it's an investment just like a house all betting horses make good money and doing this makes it harder for Sabinis police they won't know where will be hidden surrounded by a bunch of toffs.' Tommy told her, telling her the facts.

'Yeah we'll be drinking with the king of the Derby!' john called out grinning

'Derby?' polly questioned 'no no not the derby not the derby!' Polly said

'That's right for the last 10 years Sabini has made it his race' Tommy told them 'if we're going to take him down we might as will be there as a symbol.'

'Did you boys come up with it as idea in a pub by any chance?' Pol asked

'come on Pol, this is our in.' tommy told her.

'So when is the sale?' polly questioned finally getting on board.

'tomorrow.' Tommy told her

'I thought I told you to lock that?' Polly snapped

'He did I just use the key on the nail' Michael admitted coming to join the group 'look I've been listening and I want to go with them.' Polly looked like she might have a stroke. 'I love horses I could even help' Michael told her

'Over my dead body!' she told him

'it'll be all right mum, I've been to loads of horse auctions before with my uncle they are very respectful the people bring their butlers even.' Michael told her.

'And there Pish posh wives.' Arthur added.

'and their mistresses' John put in

'Let him come polly, come on we'll take care of him.' Tom informed her.

'No no fucking way!' polly told them

'That's not fucking fair, I'm not a child!' Michael spat turning and walking away

'look polly, I get it but he'll be OK.' Tom told her. 'if you want him to keep calling you mum don't push him away.' Tommy told her.

'Anything on Amelia?" polly questioned tommy looked around the room, everyone had started to clear out. Tommy pulled her into the back office. 'you found her?'

'I found her.' tommy told her.

'You did? Where? Where is my amelia?'

'Slight problem. Her family wants nothing to do with me.' tommy told her.

'where is she?' polly snapped. 'I will talk to her!'

'I will talk to her. she has an older brother that's getting in the way but don't worry-'

'WHERE!' polly yelled.

'Camden town pol. Shes in Camden town.'
