" Oh, no, no" " Josh, don't be like that, please." "Geoffrey's got something really nice planned for you." "You need to be grateful." " I'm scared" " I'm scared of surprises." " I have an afternoon planned for us-- you'll like it." "If he doesn't want to go, you can take me." " That's creepy." "You're getting creepy every day, more and more creepy." " Best be off." " Thank god he's not staying for breakfast." " I don't like soy!" " Mmm-hmm." " I think i might need to get a new job if we're gonna have a kid." " No, just-just don't worry about it." " Don't worry about it?" "Kids are expensive." "I go to a locksmith the other day and it cost $160." "Took him, like, five minutes." " You don't need a new job." " It's, like, a six-week course, and i think I'd be really good at it." " You know, you don't have to come with me today." " Our first doctor's appointment" "I'm not gonna miss that." " Well, it's just" "I'll be fine on my own." " Are you kidding, niamh?" "I'm gonna be there for you every step of the way." "This is our baby." "I don't wanna miss a single second of this experience." "This is, like, the whole point of life." "It's a miracle." "What?" "Is this the hormones?" " Peg, come on." "Just please let me drive." "You're gonna get in trouble." " Oh, what can they do to me?" "Take away my license, again?" "Send me to prison?" "I've only got a few good months left anyway." " Josh, are you sure we're doing enough for your 21st?" "Perhaps we could get a hall or something." " Yes, please, i told you." "I just-i don't want a party." " Well, you're gonna get a party." " We don't need a fricking hall." "I only have two friends and Geoffrey." " I just want it to be special." "That's all." "Your 21st, it's a big deal." " Bought me this pinata, okay?" "It's already heaps special." "It's special enough." " Have you invited your father?" "You should invite your father." " No, we don't need to." "I'll just see him another day." " Oh, no, Josh, I'm fine." "Invite him." "Look, no, really, I'm fine." "Look, he can bring a date." "Has he got a girlfriend?" " I don't know." "Wouldn't know if he has a girlfriend." " You said that like you were lying." " Okay, fine!" "He has a girlfriend, but he doesn't want me to tell you about it, okay?" " So, why doesn't he want me to know about it?" " I don't know-- i guess he thinks it'll upset you, you know?" "He leaves her at the corner store every time he comes to visit." "It's pretty ridiculous." " Yeah, he's a ridiculous man." " Yeah." " Anyone want a strawberry?" " So, what's her name?" " Mae." " Oh..." "Mae?" "Oh, fuck." " Come on-- stop crying." "You knew he'd have to move on one day." "Anyway, you've got rod." " Oh, rod is disgusting!" " He really is disgusting." " Now, why would that freaking jerk think that i couldn't handle this news?" "Hmm?" " Josh, will you pass me my cd?" " It's in." " Oh, good." "We'll have a sing-along!" " Yes!" "It's time to begin now count it in five six seven eight my boot scooting baby" " join in." " No, i don't want to." " My obsession from a western my dance floor date" " i wanna see you dance." " I'm not in the mood, peg." " What's happening?" " It's a thing we do." "Just go with it." " It's the chorus soon." "Will you be joining us?" " No!" " Uh, peg, i don't think you can stop here." "Okay, fine!"

"Here we go!" "My boot scooting baby is driving me crazy" " Alan!" " Hello, rose." " Thank you so much for coming to help out today." "I-i really appreciate it." "It's very generous of you." "Should we get started?" " Mmm-hmm." " Open for inspection." "Right." " Right." " So, where do we start, then?" " Should i vacuum?" "Jesus, when was the last time you vacuumed?" " I'm depressed." "I don't vacuum." " Don't look at me." "We're in the same family." "We all have the same habits." " I'll vacuum." " No, please, you really-you really don't need to vacuum." " No, and you won't have time if you're gonna make the game." " What game?" " Rose, it was meant to be a surprise." " No, he really doesn't like surprises, Geoffrey." " I don't-- what game?" " Collingwood versus kilda members stand." " Oh, no, no, not afl." "No, i don't like it." "You know i don't like it." "I don't get it" " I'll-I'll teach you." " No, i don't wanna watch sport and do learning." " Josh!" " It's not a fun day." "What about Claire's seventies-themed dinner party?" "I-I'm really excited about it." " We will be there on time, Josh." " Can't you just take someone else?" "I'll ruin the fun for you." "Can't you just find a real boy?" " Well, you can stay here and help us." " My advice is, take the football." " Alan, Alan?" "Can you come here, please?" " Yeah." " Look, I've got a job for you outside while" "I've got a real man here, okay?" "Come on." "Now, i think this would look much better in the backyard." " Uh... rose, there's-there's no way." " No-no-no-no, you just have to dig it up." "I'll help you carry it around the back-- it'll be right." " There's no way." " Now, come on." "I really need this done." "I don't have anybody here to help me do it." " Rose, it's not possible." " Okay, fine." "Forget it, then." "Let's just go down to the corner store for some chocolate milk, shall we?" " Oh, uh, rose, i don't think we've got time to go down to the, uh-uh-- what are you doing?" "We-we don't have time for milk." " I just want some delicious milk." " What are you doing?" " I know about her, okay?" "I know." "I know she's waiting down at the corner store." "Josh said." " For fuck's sake." "Why would he do that?" " Well, why the fuck does that matter?" "He told me because it came up." " Okay, yes, yes." "You're right." " Anyway, i-I've decided" "I'm not angry about it." "I've moved on anyway." "I'm happy for you." " Oh." " Yeah, anyway, look, about this tree." " Hey, ma." "Me and Geoffrey are going out to the football, all right?" " But you hate sport." " Yeah, so much." "I hate it so much." " Bye." "All right, Alan, now," "I'm going into the kitchen to do some tidying up." "I'm going to leave you with this tree." " Rose, the-  so, what's she like, then?" " Who?" " Me." " Uh, Mae?" " Yeah, uh, just tell me about her." "I-i want-want us to be friends." "Then-then i can tell you about rod." " Who's rod?" " Man I'm seeing." " That's good." " Yeah, so, uh, where did you meet her?" " On a plane." " Oh, that's good." " She's from Thailand." " And, she came all the way out here for you?" " Yeah." " She mustn't have very good eyesight." " They don't all have bad eyesight, rose." " What-- oh-oh, Alan, no." "Not because she's asi-- no, i was making a joke about you, about how you lo-- i-i was joking about how she came all the way out here for you, and you look like, ugh, that." " Right-- that's very funny." " Mmm." " So, tell me about rod." " Oh, well, he's horrible to talk to, but he's incredible in bed." "Best I've ever had." "Go, go, go!" "That's useless!" "Come on, pies!" "Grab the-grab the ball!" " Hey." " I'm at the football." " Oh, really?" "What's it like?" " Tom, I'm so fucking bored." "Geoffrey keeps yelling things that i can't understand." " How did he talk you into this?" " I'm making compromises, okay?" "Apparently, it's good to compromise." " You never compromise." " Yeah, i know, 'cause then i end up in situations like this." "Why did i get back with him?" "I'm just such a big dope." " Uh, 'cause he's pretty, and you were rejected and alone." " Yeah-- how's your baby?" " We're at the doctor now." " Oh, are you-are you getting it done?" " Done?" " Like, you're getting it all, you know?" " No." "We're not getting an-- we're not getting an abortion." "I wanna keep it." " I've been thinking, and i think one of my favorite things about Geoffrey is that he doesn't have a uterus." "You know, 'cause it means that we can never get ourselves into this situation." " I think it's good for the world there's no risk you could get someone pregnant." " Yeah." "You ever surprised that your sperm actually works?" "Geoffrey, I've decided i wanna get involved" " I'm ready." " Okay-okay." "You see this bloke?" " Yeah." " Centre half-forward, right?" "His main role is to move the ball toward the bloody goal!" "Don't drop it!" " You sound angry-- is he bad?" "Is he a bad one?" " No, he was the best and fairest last year." " He's the best one?" "So i get to yell whatever i like at these people, even though they're doing way more than i ever could?" " Hey, he's not doing anything today-- you butterfingered piece of shit!" " What are you gonna do when you get too old to do this?" "The life of a sportsman is short, and you never got a real education!" " Pick up the ball, you idiot!" " What-- are your hands still slippery from when you fingered-- i was gonna say-- i was gonna say," ""are your hands still slippery "from when you fingered" ""your cousin?" I couldn't do it." " You fingered your cousin!" " Geoffrey, have i seen that man's wang on the-- - yep, that's him." " Excuse me, sir-- I've seen your wang!" " That is weak as piss!" "Bring your husband next time, you faggot-- faggot!" " Geoffrey, i don't-i don't think you're allowed to say "faggot."" " You faggot!" " Excuse me, boys?" " No, it's okay-- i told him." "We'll calm down." " Mate, i can't allow that kind of homophobic slandering." "I think it's time to go." " Homophobic?" "Mate, it's-it's my boyfriend." "We're not-can't be homophobic." " Still time to go, lads." "Come on." " Why did you say that?" " What?" " About rod and the, you know, the bloody bedroom thing?" "You trying to make me feel bad?" " It was a joke." " Oh." " Well, it's-it's not a big deal." "I'm sure Mae has moves." " Jesus, rose!" "Do-do we need to talk more seriously about this?" " Oh, you seem a bit taken aback-- sorry." "Is the sex a sore spot?" "Is it not great?" "Communication is the key" "I've always found that." " Jesus Christ." " Sex is not a sore spot with rod, i can tell ya." "There's no communication." " I'm gonna go." " You're angry at me 'cause i kissed you?" " No, no, it's nothing like that-- i promise." "I just-i wanna-i wanna go and do my own thing." " You're just ashamed of kissing me in public." " It's not about you." "I just-i don't like it." "I don't like all those people looking-- it's icky." " It's just-you can't handle that you fell in love with a guy." " Who the fuck says stuff like that?" "You sound-sounds like a line from degrassi junior high." " You're so afraid to feel things, Josh!" " It's not about feeling things." " Yeah, because you can't." " Yes, i can-- i can!" "I can feel things." " You know what?" "I don't-i don't need this." " Claire." "What you up to?" " What are you doing?" " I'm done." " Oh, you're quitting." "What a surprise." " Ah." " Oh, sorry, peg." " Rose, i just want you to know that i am genuinely doing the things that I'm doing to try to make this easier for you." " What-- easy like your mama?" " Really, rose." " "Really, rose."" " C-can you please be serious?" "What are you doing?" "Stop it!" "Why are you making this so difficult?" " Easier for me?" "Now, how arrogant, Alan, of you to think that you are in control of making things easier for me!" "We're divorced, mate!" "Like, that's it-- it's over." "You're irrelevant!" "Now, so, why should i be making things easier for you?" " Stop it!" " Sorry-- hi." "I was knocking for a while." "House looks great." "Oh, hi." "The agent." " I'm the aunty." " Gonna sell this house." "Good luck." "No, not those ones." "The other ones." " These ones?" " Yeah." " Do you think i should be okay with kissing boys in public?" " Well, you weren't okay with kissing me in public." " Exactly." "Exactly." "It's-it's too much, you know?" "It's just so... ugh." "Ugh." " Okay, i have to tell you something, but, um, don't tell tom that I've told you." " Okay." " No, i mean it." "You really, really can't tell him that I've told you." "I'm only telling you because i don't have anyone else." " Yes, okay, okay." "Yes, okay, i got it." " And don't be mean about it either, please." " Yes, fine." "What?" " Um..." "Tom and i made out." " No." "You poor thing." "What did he do to you?" " Nothing-- i liked it." "We made out twice, actually." "Once properly and once briefly." " No, how did you-how did you find sex in-in tom?" " We didn't have sex, though." " Yes, of course-- okay." "Obviously, of course." "Of course you didn't have sex, obviously." " We did make out in the shower, though." "He did ejaculate on my thigh." " Oh, no, that's too much." "Why would you tell me that?" "You know, this is just-- Claire, this is too much for me to handle." " Well, I'm only telling you because i have no friends, and i have to tell someone about this stuff." " Okay." "Okay." " Also-  no." "No, there isn't an "also."" "I won't believe it-- i can't." "I can't believe it." " I really liked it." "I-I'd like to do it again, a lot." "I liked it-- i like him." " Yeah?" "Sure-- i like him, too." "You know what i mean?" "He's a likeable guy." "What a likeable chap." " Yeah, but i like-like him." " No-- ugh!" "Ugh." " Okay, i get it." "I just-- - ugh!" " Can you please just pretend to be sensitive and caring about my feelings?" "Like i know you're actually quite secretly good at." " No, I'm not secretly good at it." "I'm not." " Whatever." "Anyway, i just-i really can't wait for him to get rid of niamh." "I just-i can't stand her." "She's the worst." " Hey, i-i have some fucked news." " What?" " Uh, they are keeping the baby." "I feel a bit weird that i said that news was-- by saying it was fucked." "I-i mean, that's good news, that's okay news." "They're not gonna kill a baby." "I guess that's good news." "That's not the point." "It's bad news for you, personally, because, like, you know, you really like him, and maybe he likes you, and i just-I'm just hoping that if i keep talking, it'll take longer for you to" "say something that points out how completely heartbreaking this is for you." " Okay." " Really?" "Do you wanna cancel tonight?" "We should cancel tonight." "We-we can cook at my mum's house." "I'll tell them-I'll just tell them it was my fault." " It's fine-- i should just deal with this head-on anyway." " Yes?" " Stupid, yes." " Okay." " Yeah." " Up-up-up-up." " So, you can see we got a two-car garage." "Big gate, big gate." "No one's getting through that." "Uh, substantial front yard." "So, play sports and whatnot." "It's got a very lovely front entrance there, with the two trees." "You wanna keep going?" "I'll give you this, uh, brochure." "Not really sure what the plan is here." "We-we'll just keep going." "Thanks very much." " "I hate you."" " "I..." ""Just wanted to..." ""Be there "for you and Josh." ""But--" - "i guess magic dick rod" ""has it covered." Ugh!" " Look, she's thai, isn't she?" " Yep." " You should say something about ping pong." " Oh, you're good, peg." "Oh... that's good." ""Does she"..." ""Do ping pong?"" "Oh, shit!" "No, not-not "ping ping."" "It's bloody-- oh, this damned auto-correct!" "How do you-how do you get it to go back?" " I don't know." " Oh, shit!" "Oh, no, here we go-- okay." " "Ping ping."" " Stupid fucking shit thing!" "Ping pong!" "Here, use that." " Hey, guys!" " Hi." " So good to see you." "If you don't mind, brought a salad." " Oh, well, we're doing '70s theme." "So... whatever." " Oh, well, salad's salad." "Now we have lots." " Yeah, but it's not '70s." " How can a salad be '70s, Claire?" " So, we have some news." "Niamh is not pregnant." " Oh, yeah." "I thought i was, but I'm not." " Oh, thank god!" " Uh, so, how did you find out that you're not?" " We went to the g.P. Today and had a test." " You only just got tested?" " Well, yeah." "My period was late." "It's usually like clockwork." "I was really getting into the idea of having a little kid, too." " So, what" " I'm sorry." "You told everyone that you were pregnant because your period was late?" "It's just, you know, that sometimes that happens." "Sometimes your period is late, isn't it?" " I think we just got a bit carried away." " No, tom, can you really not see how ridiculous it is to tell people that you're pregnant because your period is late?" "Did you even take a home test?" " Well, niamh says her period's like clockwork." " I knew-i knew that she'd made it up-- i-didn't i not say that she'd made it up?" " She bamboozled you by talking about periods." "That's very cunning." " Uh, no-no-no-no, i didn't." " You can get these home tests at the store, niamh." "You don't just tell people you're pregnant, without taking a test." " You know, i-i don't understand why you're so upset about this, Claire." "I mean, tom and i are the ones who have lost our baby." " Tom and you never had the baby." "You lied to him because you thought that he was gonna break up with you, obviously." " Uh, no!" "I thought i was pregnant." " Geoffrey!" " Josh, i wanna talk to you." " Oh, no-no, not now." " Now!" " Can you guys just maybe-- just do me a favor and stop this fight for a bit, briefly?" "It's just-i don't wanna miss it." "No?" "There's more cheese in the fridge, if anybody wants some-- if you want some cheese." " Tom and i made out, twice." " How could you do this to me?" "When i was pregnant?" " You were never pregnant." " Well, you thought i was pregnant." " It wasn't when you were not pregnant." "Well, the first time, but it was actually when we were broken up, and the other time was drunk and it didn't mean anything." " You're kidding me?" "It meant nothing?" "You were-he was sobbing." " No, it just-it just looked like i was sobbing 'cause it was raining." " You know, Claire, i was-i was really, really wrong about you." "This whole time, i thought you were angry 'cause, well, you know, you're a little bit plain." "But, turns out, you're actually just a bitch." " We really need to talk about what happened today." " No, don't worry about it." "I just-i called Claire and we hung out-- it's fine." " You're dismissive of my emotions." " Well, you were the one who walked away, so-- - yeah, i was too hurt to stay." " Can't this wait?" " No, Josh, it can't." "Look, this is important to me." "Okay, I'm-I'm supposed to be important to you, so this should be important to you." "You know, every time we fight, i don't know who to talk to because the only person i wanna talk to is my best friend, and you're my best friend." " Really?" " I know i can be annoying at times, but that's-it's part of who i am, okay?" "And i wanna give you all of me." "The best parts and the worst." " Why do we have to put up with the worst parts?" " That's-that's what i want from you, too, okay?" "All of you." "I don't care what comes with that." " How could you do this to me?" "Homewreckers." " Your home is made of lies." " Tom loves me." " Oh, really?" "'Cause that's not the impression i got when i was in the shower with him." " Look, this is-this fighting is very flattering." "I just think maybe we could stop now?" " You stole my man." " We were basically-we were broken up at the time-- the first time." " I'm not threatened." "Tom-tom couldn't like you." "I mean, heterosexual boys never like you." "Do they, Claire?" " Ha!" " Tom?" " Yep." " You coming?" " Well, i don't know." "I was thinking-- I'm just not sure what to do." " Oh, tom, what the fuck are you talking about?" "Of course you're picking me." " Yeah, i am." "I'm just gonna stay here, if that's cool, because she's quite right." " Okay." " I'm sorry that it had to end like this." " Fuck you." "No, look, we should've separated years ago, Alan." " I didn't wanna leave you alone." " Oh, I'm not alone, Alan." "I'm fine." " Hi." "Uh, we're all done for the day." "So, I'll call you later and tell you how it went." " Yeah, good-- thanks." "Thank you." "Okay, peg." "There's no more beer." "We gotta go inside." "Come on, show's over." "Peg?" " Stay." "Oh, Jesus." " Look, i don't understand why, out of everyone, you're the person i have to try the hardest to impress." "So, what do you think?" "Can we just-can we give this-- give us a better shot?" " Geoffrey, i just-- no." "No." "I'm sorry."
