The Gentlemen · Season 1, Episode 6

Geoff Seacombe and Edward "Eddie" Horniman in “All Eventualities”

Like to join me in a glass of, uh, sloe gin, Your Grace?

EHEdward "Eddie" Horniman

Thanks, Geoff.

[referring to hedgehog on chair] You can put Milligan on the floor there. It’s way past his bedtime anyway.

EHEdward "Eddie" Horniman

Right. [relocates Milligan]

Yeah, anywhere will do. [referring to facial injuries] Everything all right, Your Grace? :Edward "Eddie" Horniman: Yeah. You were right, however, about Susie and the Glass family. Some information has come to light that suggests Susie and the Glass family are... If I try and extract us from the situation, they’re willing to kill me.

I thought you two were getting along okay.

EHEdward "Eddie" Horniman

Well, we were. But not anymore.

You might wanna sniff that. What do you smell?

EHEdward "Eddie" Horniman

Almonds.

You gotta take your time when you’re making sloe gin. It’ll turn that rich magenta color after a couple of weeks. Most people leave it at that. But to get that full flavor... you gotta leave it a couple of years. Underappreciated quality these days, patience. Let it play out. You continue to deliver on your end of the bargain and see how they respond. Don’t let ’em know what you’re thinking. And meanwhile, prepare for all eventualities.
