[V is standing in what seems to be a greenhouse, holding a knife to a man's throat. If you look closely, you can recognize the man as Creedy from V's flash-forward post. In the background, the 1812 Overture plays loudly, nearly masking the conversation.]

"Sutler can no longer trust you, can he, Mr. Creedy? And we both know why. After I destroy Parliament, his only chance will be to offer them someone else. Some other piece of meat. And who will that be? You, Mr. Creedy. A man as smart as you has probably considered this. A man as smart as you probably has a plan. That plan is the reason Sutler no longer trusts you. It's the reason why you're being watched right now, why there are eyes and ears in every room of this house and a tap on every phone."

[Creedy sneers.]"Bollocks."

"Oh, a man as smart as you, I think, knows otherwise."

"What do you want?"

[V jerks Creedy's head forward slightly.] "Sutler."

[Creedy seems to balk slightly.] "Come now, Mr. Creedy, you knew this was coming. You knew that one day, it'd be you or him. That's why Sutler's been kept underground, for 'security purposes'. That's why there are several of your men close to Sutler. Men that could be counted on. All you have to do is say the word."

"...what do I get out of this deal?"

"Me."

[There is a small pause; V pulls out a piece of chalk and offers it to Creedy.]

"If you accept, put an 'x' on your front door."

"...Why should I trust you?"

"Because that's the only way you're ever going to stop me."
