"I'm heading east from here so I think you need to get yourself another ride." " Where are we?" " About 30 miles from Port Mary." "A lot of buses stop here so you should be fine." " Well, thank you."

" Lacie..." " I can still do the same speech." " Lacie..." " And there's Mr. Rags!" " No!" "But..." "But you invited me." "You've seen the guest list." "They are all, like, 4.5 or above." "They are going to freak at a 2.6, and I am not taking that kind of damage, plus I haven't dipped under a 4.7 in, like, six months." "You said you wanted your oldest friend." "When I asked you to speak, you were a 4.2, okay?" "And the authenticity of a vintage bond low four at a gathering of this calibre played fantastically on all the stimulations we ran." "Forecast was a prestige bounce of 2 minimum." "But now you're a sub three." "Sorry." "That just puts the stink on things a little too much." "That just plays badly for us." "So it was just about numbers for you?" "Oh, cut the shit!" "It was numbers for both of us." "You wanted those primo votes, don't deny it." "It's not like you could get them on your own." "Let's not kid ourselves." "Oh, I'm..." "I'm getting those votes." "What?" "You're just gonna roll up here and make people like you?" " That's right." "I'm doing my speech." " No, you're not."

"To love him, comfort him, honour and keep him, in sickness and in health... and forsaking all others, be faithful unto him... [cheering and applause]" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "[revs engine]" "[screams]" "[applause]" "To my best mate, Anthony." "Let's hear it for him." "[cheering]" "You've been there from day one." "I love you, man." "I appreciate you." "Hilarious speech, by the way." "By your standards." "[laughter]" " Pow!" "Pow!" "Pow!" " Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "[laughs]" "[Paul] He's still got a few bullets left." "Oh, man." "Oh, gosh, well, um... [gasps] Shit!" "[Paul] We have so many people to thank." "Our beautiful bridesmaids." " [cheering]" " But, of course, my most heartfelt thanks, my warmest thanks, are to someone who's my best friend," "my lover and now, I'm honoured to say, my wife." " Naomi!" " [cheering and whooping]" " [cheering] - [Paul] One, two, three!" "Naomi!" " [man] The A Team!" " [phone beeps]" "I love you so much, darl." "Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo!" "[man] Congratulations, sir."

"Good choice!" "You fucking earned it, man." "You fucking earned it." "[giggles nervously]" "Everybody, hello!" " Oh, my God." " I love you." "Can everyone be quiet for a moment?" "Thank you. [giggles]" " Get rid of her." " That would play awful." "She's a fucking 1.1." "Now for those of you who don't know me, which is... all of you... my name is Lacie Pound and, believe it or not, I am one of Naomi's oldest friends." "Hi, Nay-Nay!" "It's great to meet you too, Paul." "I've heard a lot about you." "He's a pretty big deal, that Paul." " Pretty big deal." " [camera shutter clicks]" "He makes his own tapenade!" "Yeah." "[laughs] Uh..." "Anyway, um..." "I... have looked up to Naomi pretty much my entire life." "We met when we were five years old, and right up through to our teenage years, we made quite the pair." "We'd talk about all the things girls talk about, you know, boys, hair, products, uh... more boys. [laughs]" "I mean, I tried sometimes to expand our range a little and talk about climate change, but she found that kind of boring so..." "Go on." "She was probably right." "I mean, fuck the planet, right?" "Whoo!" "Yes, thank you!" "Come on." "Let's have a little fun here." "You know, fuck the planet!" "[laughs]" " [shouts] Fuck the planet!" " [feedback] [crockery rattles]" " [phone beeps]" " Anyway..." "I..." "looked up to Naomi pretty much my entire life, which meant she was looking down on me." "Always with a smile though. [laughs]" "In high school, she was my shoulder to cry on." "She seemed to enjoy that." "Guys and me never worked out." "They'd see Naomi and just..." "Whoo!" "You know, that was it." "She had this tight ass, like two fists." "Uh-huh." "[giggles] I was all like... [giggles]" "I was like... through the hallways in high school." "[cackling] [phones beep]" "[cries]" "And she was there for me." "Holding my hair back... as I knelt, vomiting, in front of the crapper." "Thank you for that, Naomi." "I always wished I was you." "And..." "I guess that's why you kept me around so long?" "Until you got your new job and your fancy new friends." "And that... [laughs] ...fucking... jackhole!" "And you didn't need me." "You probably got another me." "Guess there's some other "yeth Beth" you moved on to like a succubus." " [phones beeping]" " I'm getting to Mr. Rags, okay?" "Jesus!" " [crowd gasps]" " Stay back." "Stay the fuck back!" "I'll kill him!" "I'll cut his head off and stick it up my ass!" "[gasps] [gasps] Time's nearly up!" " Hey!" "Calm down." " I..." "I just wanted to say, in this world so caught up in our own shit," " let's not forget what matters." " It's okay." "It's okay." "Happiness, fucking Paul and Naomi, and she's..." "She..." "She fucked Greg!" "I know she did." " I know you did." " No..." "Don't even try to deny..." " [screams] - [feedback screeches]" "The little girl who, when we were just five-years-old in art camp, started talking to me because she saw I was scared and helped me make Mr. Rags." "He reminds me of you and what you meant to me then!" "[cries] And I'm so honoured to be here to see this shit!" "[screams] I love you, Nay-Nay!" "I've always loved you!" "I love you!" "[camera shutter clicking]" "[whirring]" "[breathes deeply]" "[sobs] [laughs]" "What the fuck are you looking at?" "Just what I was wondering." "Well..." "Don't!" "Don't?" "Don't wonder?" "Uh-huh." "It would be a dull world without wonder." "I don't give a shit about your world." "I don't like your brassiere." "I don't like your moustache." "I don't like your aura." " My aura?" " Yeah." "I don't like your... head." "Your entire head is just ridiculous to me." "Really?" "You look like an alcoholic former weatherman." "You sound like a lost little lamb that just got told there's no Santa Claus." "What sort of cartoon character did your mum have to fuck to brew you up in the womb?" "At least I look like I was born, not shit out by some tormented cow creature in an underground lab." "You got tossed out of that lab." " Oh, yeah?" " Oh, yeah, flushed out." " Ooh!" " In the trash!" " Your face is a fucking..." " Fucking." "Fucking biological car crash that made Picasso screw his eyes up and say," ""Well, that just don't make sense."" "[laughs]" " You're a fucking asshole." " Fuck you!" " Fuck you next Wednesday." " Fuck you for Christmas!" " Fuck you!" " Fuck you!"
