"What happens?" "It can snap." "Like celery." "That's a nice knob, Dean." "Thank you very much." "So how's it work?" "Well, only one man holds the key, and he lives in Bristol." "Apparently he wears it on a chain round his neck, like the Dungeon Master." "He's got the keys of 57 boys, jangling away." "Apparently, if you have wet dreams, you can literally die of agony." "I had a dream last night about Jack and Finn, and I mean Jack with Finn." "The pain was just fantastic." " So you can still piss?" " Well, of course I can, don't be stupid." " There's a tube and everything." " Can I touch it?" "Oh, you wish!" "That's more than enough for you, Mr Best." "Come on, back to work, chop chop!" "See ya!" "And stop looking!" "(TEXT ALERT)" "No way!" "Scotty!" "I need your toolbox." "Now!" " Did I tell you I've seen her again?" " Uh-uh." "Honestly, Dean, she's gorgeous." "Every time I look at her, I'm all like... shiver!"

"I've only got 40 minutes then I've got to go to a meeting." "I just thought, with this view..." "I want to fuck with the whole of Manchester watching." "OK!" " Right, then." " Great." " Oh, fantastic!" " Yeah." "Oh!" "Wait, wait!" "Oh, oh!" "Ahh!" "That was nice." " Sorry." " It's OK." "You're just so hot, still..." "never mind." "Happens to all of us." "Not to me."

"It was like a miracle, you saying hello, cos I've had you as a favourite for ages." "I first saw you when your photo had bright, blond, spiky hair." "When was that?" "Six months ago?" "That's... three years ago." "Well, I thought, '"He's nice.'" So I made you a favourite, but I never said hello, in case you blocked me." "And then I used to look at you every day and it was fascinating, cos most of the time your profile says you were 125 miles away, but every fortnight, all of a sudden, you're like 5,000 feet away." "Every two weeks I'm like, '"Here he is, he's back!" "'"" "Cos I figured it out, I thought, I bet he comes here on business, and then, I knew you'd be a Geordie cos I looked it up on the map." "I measured 125 miles, with a compass, not with an actual compass, but, you know, same effect." "And 125 miles from Manchester means either Newcastle, Gloucester or some little town on the A69 called Haltwhistle, and look!" "Here you are, a Geordie, just like I said." "Can I see you again?" "Absolutely not." "If you charged ten quid to every person that you've shown your cock to today, you'd have the rent money by now." "Up to Easter!" "That would be like prostitution, Freddie." "You shock me." "Bye, then." "(SIGHS)" "Hello, stranger." "Oh!" "Hello, Dean!" "That's funny." " Are you stalking me, Mr Best?" " No." "Cos all this was offices, but they never finished the conversion, we haven't even got a cooker, just a microwave." "Do you want a coffee?" "Yeah, thanks." "Just white, thanks." "I lived in a flat, after university." "Not as big as this, but..." "Three of us." "We'd shag anything that moved." "Oh, that's dirty, coming from you." "Yeah." "I miss being dirty." " Doesn't suit you." " Doesn't it?" " No." " Well, there you go." "So this is ã400 each and there's two of you?" "It's 800 a month, plus 200 for electricity." "And we're online cos Freddie bought a mobile router." "ã800, though, that's not bad." "Is there any sort of rent book?" "Not that I know of." "Freddie said they might be laundering the money." "I don't really know what that means." "Can you lend me 20 quid?" "Oh!" "Right." "Erm..." "Yeah..." "No, there, I knew that would be embarrassing - that's Freddie, he told me to ask you." " Sorry." " Fine, don't worry." "Have it." "Take it, no need to pay me back." "That's brilliant." "Thank you." "Could you lend me 100?" "I don't think that's appropriate." " No." " Sorry." "No, honestly." "Can I keep that?" "Yeah, yeah, yes." "Thanks." "You must have someone else you could ask." "I mean, have you got?" "Is there Mum and Dad, or?" "I did have." "My dad died when I was little." "Then Mum took up with this bloke called Trevor, and he was all right, he was nice, we got on." "But then he went on my computer." "This was about a year ago." "Then it all kicked off." "My mum was crying and he was shouting, he was coming out with, '"God made Adam and Eve,'" and all that shit, you know." "Jesus." "I know." "And I said, '"Well, I'm not gonna change.'"" "And he said, '"You fucking well are,'" like he was gonna punch my face in, and I just stood there cos I wasn't gonna back down, but then my mother said, like, '"You're no son of mine." "And I said, '"OK'"." "But then she said, '"Trevor,'" and he stood up, and he got all my stuff, put it in boxes and put it out the front." "And that was it, they said, '"Get out." "'"Right now."

"If you can't pay your rent on time, he'll break your neck." "And that's fine with me, I'll just go and get a room at Vicky's." "Yeah, well, Vicky's not gonna shag you when you're bored, is she?" "For all of 30 seconds." "Oh, fuck off." "That was your fault." "You were too vigorous." " I was speaking to Sam at work and he says he had you at Christmas." "He said that lasted 30 seconds too." "Have you been talking about me?" "Obviously." "Just fuck off!" "Really, really fuck off." "Fuck right off." "Fuck off." "Fuck off means go." "But can't you ask your mother?" "I mean, 400 quid, one-off payment, just once?" "I told you." "She never wants to see me again." "Yeah, but you could try." "It's all right for you with your nice mum and dad." "Seriously, I can't!" "She's got that thug standing next to her." "Literally, he said, '"If you come near our house again, I'll kick your head in.'"" "And he meant it, he was right in my face, he was, like, furious." "He grabbed hold of me..." "Is any of this true?" " You do exaggerate." " He threw me out!" " Did he, though?" " My God, you're a cunt!" "Yeah." "You know, I just keep thinking..." "my friend Syma, she got thrown out of home." "Exactly the same as you." "Dad went on her computer," "'"Oh, my God, my daughter's a pervert.'" All that." "Indian family, only child, my God, it was massive." "Well, that's like me." "Yeah, anyway, she packed up her stuff, she said," "'"I'm not staying here,'" and she carried it all out, and her mum's shouting, her dad's shouting, they're all like, '"Shame, disgrace,'"" "you know, bollocks like that." "And Syma gets in the car, and she's like, '"You'll never see me again.'"" "And her mum and dad say, '"Good riddance!" "'"" "And Syma goes, '"Right, OK, goodbye, for ever!" "'"" "And then the car won't start." "So her mum and dad are standing there, shouting all sorts, and Syma's sitting in the car, and she says it again, she's like, '"Goodbye, for good!" "'"" "It still won't start." "I mean, it really won't start." "And in the end, she has to get out." "They have to telephone the AA." "Turns out, she's on her father's membership, so he has to go back inside the house and get the number." "And they're still saying, '"We disown you.'"" "She's still saying, '"I don't care.'"" "And then they have to wait 45 minutes for the van to come." "Just standing there, in the street." "45 minutes." "Anyway, then the man comes, he fixes the car, and Syma gets back in, and she says, '"I'm leaving, goodbye!" "'"" "And then she drives off, and that was that." "Because that's what happens." "When real things really happen to real-life people, there's always... a car." "Or a dog." "Or a hat." "Or... something that doesn't fit." "Cos I lived with a liar." "I lived with a liar for years and years, and I know what it sounds like when you make something up." "So?" "So... we could have a laugh in this place, man." "It could be good." "We could even hook up every now and again, I don't mind." "It's better than having a wank." "Certainly faster." "But not if you're gonna fuck it up." "(SIGHS) You're just so young, Dean." "What's that supposed to mean?" "Anyway, I tried." " (CUTLERY CLINKS) - (SIGHS) 400 quid, by tomorrow, or you're fucked." "Take as long as you like, I don't mind." "I'll wait here." "400 quid's a lot of money." "I'll ask her for 200, see how it goes." "And if they chase me out with cricket bats and pickaxes, get ready to drive, fast!" " OK?" " OK." " Good luck." " Thanks, hon."

"Wouldn't it?" "(TEXT ALERT)" "So... who is living in the flat now, then?" " Oh, my God!" " It's all right, Pete, just leave it." "How come he can have his phone at the table?"
