"I'm just saying there's been loads." "You don't know everything about me." " Nathan, you had a boyfriend?" " l'm only 15." "For a moment there I thought you were the voice of experience." "Obviously not." "Right, set it in here." "Now, I'll hold and you take that yoke off there." "Right." "Well..." "I suppose you've heard?" "Yeah." "Yeah, well, it's, uh... we've changed our minds." "It's that endowment policy." "Matured last month." "Might as well use it." "We looked at the sums but divorce would've eaten it up." "So, your mother's made the booking." "Paris, next month."

"Sitting in that house like they're just bored!" "If ever there was an argument against settling down!" "Stay married for 33 years, anyone'll end up like that." "If you spent more time with them..." "Learn their language, Stuart." "The boys'll be home soon." " Things to do." " See you, then." "You could tell them you're gay." "They're not gonna drop dead and if they do, we get the house." "Even if I was shagging lots of women, it's none of their business." "But I've seen you, you're so bloody proud." " How come they don't fit into that?" " You can't talk to them." "How long did it take you to tell them Robert was leaving?" "He was halfway down the M6." "But I did tell them in the end." "What was I gonna do, lie for the rest of my life?" "Fuck off, Marie." "Fuck off yourself." "I did warn you." "Call round my mother's and you get a list of shopping." " Hiya." " Hiya." " Did you get the felt pens?" " What does she need felt pens for?" "God knows what goes on in Hazel World." "Last Christmas this bloke promised her tinsel, 10p a truckload." "It all went wrong and she ended up with half a ton of coffee." "Oh, would you look at that?" "Hello!" "Hello!" " (Couple chatting)" " Hello!" "I said hello!" "I said hello!" "Oi!" "I said hello, look at me!" "I said hello!"

" You're shaming me." " l'm with Hazel, I'm not bothering you." "You're following me around." "It's shaming." " We're going." " Drinks for a quid at Manto's." "Shut up, don't." "She's made the effort." "She got a new skirt." "Listen to her, Jiminy Cricket." "Nathan, one drink!" "Fuck 'em." "Just fuck 'em!" "Ifyou'rereadysteady lf you're ready..." "Give it time." "Vince used to be embarrassed every time I came out." "He still is some nights but that's Bacardi for you." "I've got me drink, I'm staying and I'll keep coming back." "I won't give up on him." "I'll keep coming back." "Ohyeah,jumpupandyell lfyou'reready,oh-oh lf you're ready steady" " Piss off, Christian!" " Hear that, boys?" "He told me to piss off." "Nathan Maloney can swear." "Tell us the rest, everyone says you've left home." "What happened?" "Your mother been shagging about?" " Shut up!" " You're just so wrong!" "Cos I've shafted her." "She was begging." "She'd screw a dog, your mother." "Ah, did Nathan run away?" "Poor little boy, cos his father can't get it up?" "What's the matter, Nathan?" "She ask you to give her one?" " (Horn blaring) - (Stuart) Fuck off, kid!" "That's my lift." "See you." " l'm taking you home." " Brilliant." "Hazel's making pizza." "She's cooking it herself." " She's got this recipe..."

"The Jeep's only six months old and you've still buggered it." " You bastard!" " l'm warning you." "Nine, nine..." " One more nine and the police..." " Call them." "Tell them what you did to a 15-year-old boy." "Good point." " What are you doing?" " What I should've done ages ago." "This is him, is it?" "Stuart, Stuart Jones?" "For God's sake, don't be so stupid!" "Janice, take him inside." "Take him inside right now!" "Take him in and lock him in the closet." "You little bastard, you little bloody bastard..." "Have you seen the car?" "Mum, have you seen the car?" "Helen, get back in the house." "Go inside, everybody, please go inside the bloody house!" "What's he done?" "What's Nathan done?" "Bastard!" "Get inside." "Get inside!" "Coming back?" "You want some more?" "Cos you can have some more." "You can have plenty!" " You little bastard!" " Roy, sweetheart, less of the little." "And he's like, "Nine, nine - one more nine!"" "My dad's got this face like he's exploding." "And if he bursts a blood vessel on this suit, he's dead." ""Nine, nine - one more nine!"" "I'm phoning your mother." "Someone has to." "Nathan Maloney, you're a lucky bastard." "First you invent a violent father, then you actually get one." " How's that lucky?" " Long story." ""15, 15 years old!"" " lt's early, Stuart." "Time yet for an encore." " What's that supposed to mean?" "You've taken a family and torn it apart." "What's next?" "It wasn't his fault, be fair." "He was trying to get him home." "How come he wasn't home in the first place?" " l was doing the right thing." " He was helping." "Yeah." "Driving up in that bloody Jeep for all the world to see." " Subtle." " Ooh." "Now, now, girls, time out." "Shut your face." "Let's have a scrap." "Never mind his parents if you've got a good story." "They're coming from the other side of the world now to have a go at me." "(Mobile)" "What?" "(Romey) 'Where have you been?" "If you returned one call...'" "Look, the day I've had." "I've been attacked." "Yeah." "Can you come round?" "It's quite important." "I can't." "The Jeep's a write-off, I'll see Alfred tomorrow." "And these bastards have no sympathy." " 'Stuart...' - lt's Nathan's fault." " l tried to help, won't bother next time." " 'Stuart!" "' l'm getting married." "What the fuck do you mean?" "I'll phone and get the table for later." "Better cancel." "My visa is running out." "If I get married and we convince the Home Office it's a proper relationship, I can stay - it's that simple." "And Romey offered, I didn't ask her." "It's just a certificate, it doesn't mean anything." "I didn't say it did." "Why is everyone having a go at me?" " Just look at you." " Of course you're worried, Stu." "I mean, there's Alfred." " What about him?" " l'll have to live here full time." "I've checked up." "The Home Office can investigate whenever they want." "So I'll be here permanently." "I got no choice." " But you're his father." " Who said I wasn't?" "You could be here just as much as me." "If you made the effort." " Sorry, do you mind?" "Starving." " Help yourself." " What was it again?" " Cameron." "I guess you've known Stuart and Vince for ages." "Far too long." "Has it always been like this?" "Vince running after him?" "It's the greatest love story never told." "Long after you're gone, he'll still have Vince." "Stuart's little acolyte, poor sod." "But Vince can wait all he likes, that shag's never gonna happen." "Shit." "You're with Vince." "Yeah." "Shit." "Easy mistake." "Stuart and Vince." "I mean he loves him, they're friends." "I love my friends, don't you?" "That's all it is - friendship." "It's not as if I didn't know." "There's some cambazola in the fridge, help yourself." "Have it all." "Youcansaywhatyouwant..." "Vince." "Not you." "Ifeelthesameaboutyou" "Andyoucantellmeyou'releaving but it won't change my feelings..." "(Horn toots)" "I've been to see Frank, he's back in the hospital." "I thought I'd just, uh..." "Anyway, you've got your hands full." "Alfred." "He's Romey's." "She's having a party, I said I'd look after him." "All that cigarette smoke and stuff." " She leaves a baby with you?" " Yeah." "How is he?" "Frank?" "Oh, he's all right." "Look, are...are we standing here or...?" "Yeah." "Sorry." "Must cost a bit, this place." "I can afford it." "Overdrawn?" "No." "(Alfred gurgles)" "Suppose you think we're mad." "Completely." "It wasn't a joke." "The divorce. I did think about it." "I'm only 55. I could do anything." "You'd fall apart without each other." "No, I don't think we would." "Well, you know what she's like, I mean... (Sighs) lt's not easy." "(Alfred crying)" "Look at him." "He wants out." "Come on, wee man." "There we go." "You're all right." "Marie's been on the phone, having a go." "One thing I give your sister, she says what she thinks." "Yeah, then she says it all again." "You've not done this before, have you?" "You'd have had him stay there all night." "Little fella." "She leaves her baby with you?" " She's a friend." " She must be a very good friend." " She's not that sort of friend." " Stuart, I didn't think that for a second." "Your mother and me, it's no wonder we ended up like this." "It's like... we've said everything there is to say." "Then again, I don't think we've said anything at all." "If ever... lf ever there's anything that..." "Like what?" "I'm keeping you, I'd best be going." "You be careful with him, now." "If you can't get him to sleep, your sister will tell you what to do." "I'm late, your mother'll be nagging me." "She has this thing about me driving at night." "I suppose as long as she's nagging, she's worried about me." "That's something, I suppose." "Pick him up first thing, mind." "I'm in the small claims court at ten."
