"Well, I had a punctured tyre." "I had to wait an aeon for assistance." "I..." "I'm sorry if I frightened you." "I should have knocked, but..." "Oh, I'll..." "I'll sleep in the other room, if I may." "Anywhere you like." "Eh, yes, well, erm..." "Er... good night." "(Door creaks)" " Ah, good morning." "Sleep well?" " Hm." "Uh, oh, I..." "I do apologise for last night." "It was perfectly inconsiderate of me." "It's perfectly all right, Monty." "You've been busy in here." "Yeah, as a bee." "How did you repair the window?" "Oh, I didn't break it."

"Perhaps the last island of beauty in the world." "Now, which of you is going to be a splendid fellow and go down to the Rolls for the rest of the wine?" " (Both) I will!" " No, I'd better go." "I want to see about digging the car out, anyway." "But we have my car, dear boy." "Yes, but if it rains, we're buggered." " I mean..." " Stranded!" "We'll leave the car till later." "Leave this to me." "Well, I'll come with you, then." "I fancy a walk." "No, no, no." "I hear you're a little wizard in the kitchen." " I shall need you to work on the joint." " Yeah, you're the cook." "(Monty) Erm, what on earth are those?" " We forgot to bring our wellingtons." " Oh, but how dreadful." "Do you mean you've been up here in all this beastly mud and oomska without wellingtons?" "Well, this afternoon, I shall take you both into Penrith and get you fitted with some good quality rubber boots." "(Sighs)" "Garlic, rosemary and salt." "I brought two of these in case either of you was any good in the kitchen." " I'm not." " Oh, of course you are." " Cooking's one of the natural instincts." " Listen, Monty." "This is all very kind of you, but really," "I think I ought to be out there getting some work done on the car." "Nonsense." "You haven't time." "We're taking late luncheon at three." " I'm afraid we have to leave by three, Monty." " Leave?" "Oh, didn't he tell you?" "We have to get back to sign on." "Sign on?" "At a Labour Exchange?" "Yeah." "It's sort of fashionable, actually." "All the actors do it." "Even Redgrave." "But surely you could forego for just this one occasion?" "I've come a very long way to see you both." "Can't actually, I mean, I'd love to stay." "But he's more adamant to get back than I am." "Then we must choose our moment... and have a word with him." "I'm sure together we could persuade him." "There, now." "Garlic, rosemary and salt." "I can never touch meat until it's cooked." "As a youth, I used to weep in butchers' shops." " I can't find the rosemary." " Huh?" "You can't find the rosemary?" "I'm sure we could find it together." " Perhaps it's in the other bag?" " Perhaps it is." "Shall we look?" "Oh, sorry." "Sherry's in there." "What do you mean, sorry?" "What's going on?" "What's he doing?" "Listen, we can't stay." "He won't leave me alone." "(Withnail) All right." "We'll get the lunch done and then we'll leave." "I'm afraid we must drink from these." "I trust their shapes will not offend your palates." " Chin-chin." " To a delightful weekend in the country." "(Monty) I do think you could have shaved." "What on earth will people think of me turning up with you two?" "You look like a pair of farm-hands." "This is most embarrassing." "Get away from the car." "Buy the wellingtons." "I'm going to go and buy some razors and shaving soap." "I'll see you over there in half an hour." " Pair of blues." " One each." " I think a drink, don't you?" " What about the wellingtons?" "Oh, bollocks to the wellingtons." "We'll tell him they had a farmer's conference and had a run on them." "OK." "Yeah." "Promise." "Bye." "Huh." "Hasn't heard a thing." "Apparently, they're still seeing people." "You don't want to go to Manchester, anyway." " Play a bloody soldier?" " Don't I?" "I damn well do." "It's a bloody good little theatre." " That's not much of a part, though, is it?" " Well, it's better than nothing." " They'd make you out your hair off." " So what?" "You'd lose a leg." "Time, gents, please." "All right." "We're going to have to work quickly." "A pair of quadruple whiskys and another pair of pints, please." "Where is he?" "I'm utterly arseholed." "We're early." "We wanna get in there, don't we?" "Eat some cake, soak up the booze." "(Bell tinkles)" "Ahh." " All right here?" " What do you want?" "Cake." "All right here?" "No, we're closing in a minute." "We're leaving in a minute." "We want cake and tea." "(Man) Didn't you hear?" "She said she'd closed." "What do you want in here?" "Cake." "What's it got to do with you?" "I happen to be the proprietor." "Now, would you leave?" "Ah, I'm glad you're the proprietor." "I was going to have to have a word with you anyway." "We're working on a film up here." "Locations, see." "We might want to do a film in here." " You're drunk." " Just bring out the cakes." "Cake and fine wine." "If you don't leave, we'll call the police." "Balls!" "We want the finest wines available to humanity." "We want them here, and we want them now!" "(Proprietor) Miss Blenehassitt, telephone the police." "(Mouth full) Yes, all right, Miss Blenehassitt." "I'm warning you." "If you do, you're fired." "We're multimillionaires." "We shall buy this place and fire you immediately." "Yes, we'll buy this place." "And we'll install a fucking jukebox in here... (Laughing) ..to liven all you stiffs up a bit." "The police, Miss Blenehassitt." "Just say there are a couple of drunks in the Penrith Tea Rooms" " and we want them removed." " We are not drunks." "We are multimillionaires." "Hurry up, Mabs." "We'll keep them here till they arrive." " You won't keep us anywhere." " (Car horn beeps)" "We'll buy this place and have it knocked down." " All right." "It's all right." " (Miss Blenehassitt) Police, please." "It's all right." "We're going." "Our car's arrived." " We'll be back. (Bell jangling)" "We're coming back in here." "(Chuckling)" " Where is he?" " He's sulking up the hill." "He says he won't come in for lunch without an apology." "Suits me." "He can eat his fucking radish." "It's all your fault." "You lead him astray." " I beg your pardon, Monty?" " Oh, don't tell me you're not aware of it." "I know what you're up to and so do you." " Sherry?" " Sherry?" "Oh, dear, no." "No, no." "I'd be sucked into his trap." "One of us has got to stay on guard." "He's so mauve." "We don't know what he's planning." "I'm preparing myself to forgive you." "I think you've been punished enough." "I think we'd better release you from the legumes and transfer your talents to the meat." "You shouldn't treat each other so badly." "This boy's been out there, frozen to the marrow, and you just sit in here, drinking." "Now come along, he's going to revitalise himself and you're going to finish the vegetables." " I don't know how to do them." " Well, of course you don't." "You are incapable of indulging in anything but pleasure, am I not right?" "You don't deserve such loyalty." "Now come along." "I'm going to teach you how to peel a potato." "Isn't it stimulating, getting back to a basic sort of life for a while?" " Yes." " Surrounded by trees and nature, one feels a glorious stirring of the senses." "A rejection of poisonous inhibition and a fecund motion of the soul." "Except, of course, the problems tend to take the edge off the pleasure." "I mean, with no proper facilities." "All the glorious trials of youth, dear boy." "When I was a lad, I'd rocket off on my tandem with Wrigglesworth, and we'd just ride and ride." "And at night, we'd find some barn and fall asleep with the perfumes of nature sighing on our skin." "Would it be in bad form to plagiarise a toast?" "It depends entirely on the quality of the wine." "In this instance, it most certainly would not." "In that case, to a delightful weekend in the country." "(Monty) Oh, splendid." "We expected a volley of argument concerning Mr Redgrave." " You're forgetting about Jake." " Not another word." " Not another word." "Jake can wait too." " Jake isn't a friend, Monty." "I'd hoped to avoid telling you this, but there's a psychotic on the prowl outside this house." "Ask him if I exaggerate." "He's threatened us and he's dangerous." "Is this true?" "Well, there's this local type hanging about." "A poacher." "Got into a tiff and he threatened me with a dead fish." "(Sniggers)" "Yes, it was rather amusing, actually." "When you came in, we thought it was him." "And we thought that you, cleaning your boots, was him, sharpening his knife." " Oh!" " (Laughs)" " Oh, how delicious. (Both chuckling)" "More meat?" "No, thank you." "I'm going for a walk." "Oh, wait for us to finish, dear boy, and we'll all go." "Listen, I know what you're thinking, but I had no alternative." "The old bugger's come a long way, and I didn't want to put the wind up him." "Your sensitivity overwhelms me." "If you think you're gonna have a weekend's indulgence up here at his expense, which means him having a weekend's indulgence up here at my expense," " you've got another think coming." " I give you my word." " We'll leave first thing tomorrow morning." " Tomorrow?" "What about tonight?" " He's not going to try anything." " Of course he is!" "Why do you think he's here?" "He means business." "Anyway, he sent me out to tell you that the coffee's ready." "I couldn't drink it." "I've got a cramp in the mouth from grinning." " Well, stop smiling at him." " I can't help it." "I'm so uptight with him, I can't stop myself." "(Monty) Laissez-moi respirer" "Longtemps, longtemps I'odeur de tes cheveux" "Ah, Baudelaire." "Brings back such memories of Oxford." "Oh, Oxford." "Followed by yet another anecdote about his sensitive crimes in a punt with a chap called Norman, who had red hair and a book of poetry stained with the butter drips from crumpets." "(Monty) I often wonder where Norman is now." "Probably wintering with his mother in Guildford." "A cat and the rain." "Vim under the sink and both bars on." "But old, now." "Old." "There can be no true beauty without decay." "(Withnail) Elegium pro Britannia." "How right you are." "How right you are." "We live in a kingdom of rains, where royalty comes in gangs." "Come on, lads, let's get home." "The sky's beginning to bruise." "Night must fall, and we shall be forced to camp." "He's having my room, all right?" "That's the condition, all right?" " All right." " I want the room with the lock." " Agree to that or I'm off." " All right." "All right." "(Marwood) Oh, good ol' Jake, eh?" "I told you." "He's back, and that is precisely the reason I'm off to London." "Let's all have a good laugh, eh, Withnail?" "Good old Jake, eh?" "He's back!" " He's going away." "He's leaving." " Come on, let's pack up." "We'll get out of here before it gets dark." ""Here hare here."" "Here hare here." "Good old Jake." "(Monty) Ace bets." "Ace bets two." "And it's over to you." " Your two and up two." " Mm." " (Marwood) So that's four." " That's four." "Four." "(Monty) Aces will pay for the raise and see the two." "Now, last card." "Nonne solus videtur." "Reginae suendae defit." "(Monty chuckles)" "And, oh!" "(Both chuckle)" "And there she is!" "Oh!" "A possible flush." "Oh, Well..." "Well, it's the two queens to bet." "(♪ Piano music)" "Another hand?" "I think we'd better get him to bed." "No, no." "He's down here." "You're in my room, I'm in his room and he's down here." "No, no, I wouldn't dream of depriving the dear fellow of his bed," " especially in that condition." " But it's agreed." "It's what he wants." "No, I don't." "I want to get to bed." "All right, then, lovey." "Let's get you to bed." "In bed by midnight, it'll do us both good." "Night, night, then, Monty." "(Withnail) I want to be alone." "I want to be alone." "I want to be alone." "(Locking)" "I think he'd better sleep alone tonight." "He doesn't want to sleep with you." "Right." "Well, you're in there." "And I'll take these and I'll..." "I'll have the couch." "I'll say goodnight, then, Monty." "You already have." "Twice." "What is it, Monty?" "I'm terribly tired." "I need to go to sleep." "But not that tired, eh?" "Are you a sponge or a stone?" "What do you mean?" "Do you like to experience all facets of life, or do you shut yourself off from new experience?" " I voted Conservative." " Are you faithful?" " To whom?" " Faithfulness isn't selective." "No, I quite agree." "It's more a question of selecting to whom one will be faithful." "Have you selected?" "I'm terribly tired." "I've been watching you all evening." "You've been avoiding my eyes, haven't you?" " Your eyes?" " Mm." "At luncheon, you couldn't tear your gaze from mine." "This evening, you barely looked at me." "What did he say to you?" " Nothing." " You can tell me." "I assure you, nothing, Monty." "I'm terribly tired." "I need to go to bed." "Yes." "You must, mustn't you?" "Off you go then." "I'll sleep here." "It won't be the first time I've been left with the couch." "(Owl hoots)" "(Creaking)" "Boy." "Boy." "I know you're not asleep, boy." " But he is. (Rattling)" "I've been into his room." "(Panting) He won't hear a thing." "I know you're not asleep, boy." "No, I'm not." "What is it, Monty?" "What do you want?" "I had to come." "I tried not to." "Oh, how I tried not to." "Listen, Monty, there's something I have to explain to you." "You needn't explain." "He's told me everything." "He told me that first day you came to Chelsea." "What... what's he told you?" "He told me about your arrest in the Tottenham Court Road." "He told me about your problems." "How you feel." "Your desires." "Problems?" "What problems?" " You are a toilet trader." " He told you that?" "You mustn't blame him." "You mustn't blame yourself." "I know how you feel and how difficult it is." "And that's why you mustn't hold back and let it ruin your youth as I nearly did over Eric." "It's like a tide." "Give in to it, boy." "Go with it." "It's society's crime, not ours." " I'm not homosexual, Monty." " Yes, you are." "Of course you are." "You're simply blackmailing your emotions to avoid the realities of your relationship with him." " What are you talking about?" " You love him." "And it isn't his fault he cannot love you any more than it's mine that I adore you." "Couldn't we allow ourselves just this one moment of indiscretion?" " No!" " He need never know." "I don't care what he knows." "Monty, you've got to go." "You've got to leave." "If you want to humiliate me, humiliate me." "I adore you." "Tell him if you must." "I no longer care." "I mean to have you, even if it must be burglary." "It's not me, it's him." "He lied to you." "We're an affair." "We have been for years." "But he doesn't want you to know, he doesn't want anybody to know." "We're both in it." "We're..." "We're obsessed with each other." "But he's ashamed, he refuses to come out and accept what he is." "That's why he's rejecting me while you're here." "On my life, Monty, this is the first night we haven't slept together for six years." "I can't cheat on him." "It would kill him." "But he told me you were in purgatory because he couldn't love you." "He's lying, lying!" "Oh, my dear boy. (Sniffs)" "If I had known that, I would never have attempted to come between you." "I know that, Monty." "I respect you for your sensitivity." "I thank you for it." "But you must leave." "Yes." "Yes." "You'd better go to him." "Oh, I intend to." "This instant." " (Snoring)" " Withnail, you bastard, wake up." "Wake up, you bastard." "Or I'll burn this bastard bed down." "(Owl hooting)" " I deny all accusations." "What do you want?" "I've just narrowly avoided having a buggering, and I've come in here with the express intention of wishing one on you." "Having said that, I now intend to leave for London." "Hold on." "Don't let your imagination run away with you." "Imagination!" "I just finished fighting a naked man." "How dare you tell him I'm a toilet trader?" "It was a tactical necessity." "If I hadn't told him you were active, we'd never have got the cottage." "I'd never have wanted it." "Not with him in it." "(coughs)" "I never thought he'd come all this way." " Monty?" "He'd go to New York." " It was a calculated risk." "What is all this "tactical necessity" and "calculated risk"?" "This is me, naked, in a corner." "And how dare you tell him I love you?" "And how dare you tell him you rejected me?" " How dare you tell him that?" " Sorry about that." "I got a bit carried away." "I sort of said it without thinking." "Well, let me tell you something, Withnail." "If he comes into my room again, it's murder." "And you will be held responsible in law." ""Perhaps it is appropriate justice for the eavesdropper" ""that he should leave as his trade determines," ""in secrecy," ""and in the dead of night."
