Sierra was helping to clean the pub. Grace and Harry were cleaning the bar. She decided to throw out some dirty water.

She didn't expect to see Tommy Shelby with a horse. She barely missed him with the water. "Shit. I'm sorry. I didn't see you coming," she said.

"It's fine," Tommy said as he looked at her. He was still mesmerised by her. He wanted her.

Sierra smiled slightly and looked at the house. "What's his name?" She asked while stroking the horse.

"Doesn't have one," Tommy said. He looked at the horse.

Sierra nodded. "Poor boy. He deserves a name," she said as put the bucket down. She smiled. "I'd name him but I don't think you'd appreciate that."

Tommy could tell she had something to say. He looked at her. "You have something you want to say to me?"

"No. Actually, the other night, when you came into the pub, I was singing. You said it wasn't allowed. Well I'd like there to be one night a week that singing is allowed. It would be good for everyone. Saturday nights. Harry was too afraid to ask you and I don't know where Grace went," Sierra said.

Tommy nodded. "But you're not afraid?"

Sierra shook her head. "Hard to be afraid of someone you barely know. I'm not as keen singer as Grace. But I love it when I feel like it."

Tommy nodded again. "You seem like a posh girl. Someone from London who come for the races. Do you like horses? Fancy earning some extra money?" Tommy asked.

Sierra frowned. "I'm not a whore. I've told you that," she said. She saw the look on his face. "Okay. Doing what?" She asked.

"Dig out a nice dress. I want to take you to the races," Tommy ordered before he got on the horse and trotted off.

Sierra stood there. Shocked at the fact Tommy Shelby wanted to take her to the races.

Sierra and Lilian were in the pictures with some popcorn. The door burst open and Tommy Shelby walked in. He looked mad.

He stormed down a few aisles in front of them. Tommy saw Sierra and his glare softened. Sierra noticed Tommy's sister, Ada.

"Tell me the mans name Ada."

Sierra realised that there was something going within the Shelby family. She looked at Lilian who shrugged.

"Rudolf Valentino," Ada sarcastically said. She was referring to the actor in the movie.

Tommy stormed out with a bang of the door. He clearly wasn't appreciating the humour that Ada was delivering.

A few moments later, the movie was cut off. Tommy came back in. "Get out! All of you!" He yelled. It was clear he was extremely angry.

Tommy saw Sierra looking at him and shook his head. He looked at Ada. "I said tell me his fucking name," Tommy said.

"Freddie fucking Thorne!" Ada yelled. She noticed the Chambers sisters leaving. She was frustrated. "Yeah. Your best mate since school! The man who saved your life in France so go on! Cut him! Cut him up and chuck him in the cut!" Ada yelled.

Tommy said nothing. Instead he stormed out the room and left. "Oi! I'm a Shelby too. Put my fucking film back on!" Ada yelled.

Sierra went after Tommy to check he was okay. She saw him walking down the street. People moving out of his way. Not daring to speak to him.

It was blatantly obvious that he was in a bad mood. Sierra walked after him. She followed him into the house.

He was sitting behind a desk. Piles of money in front of him. "What are you doing here Sierra?" He asked.
