"Jesus Christ!" "Congratulations, you pulled it off. 12 million." "12.2." "This is going to transform the practice, do you realise?" "New toilets." "New everything." "New us." "New you." "Thank you so much for believing in me." "She took you on for a bet." "Out, you!" "Thank you." "No, thank you." "Thanks!" "Whoops!" "They're making me a senior associate." "Yes!" "About time." "How much?" "I don't know." "She wanted to talk to me when I'm sober." "I might have to do a few more hours." "You're going to invent the 30-hour day." "I love the smell of puke in the morning!" "You measured up the corner office yet?" "No rush." "The client hasn't changed his mind?" "You haven't." "Well, give me a clue." "Hairballs?" "My god." "That's what I said." "Really?" "Seriously?" "Ellen!" "It's not yours." "Well, that's a relief." "I can't believe this is happening to us." "It's happening to me." "You've got another seven months." "Take your time." "So, are you ready for the next ten years?" "I'm pregnant." "Yeah, I am, though." "Pregnant." "Well, that's fantastic!" "Wha..." "It's not a complete accident, though, is it?" " You can't ask that!" " Why?" "No, no, I want..." "I want a baby." "I just, um..." "I think I could have picked my time a bit better." "Well, I gather the thing about babies is that you don't get to pick your moment." "But congratulations..." "that's brilliant news." "It's not totally brilliant for us, is it?" "You can't very well put the library on hold, while I change nappies." "No-one's taking anything away from you." "The baby's a bonus." "Hey, do we have any of that Champagne left?" "And some orange juice for..." "You telling anyone?" "No!" "Someone with a bad hangover." "Yes!" "Come here." "You waited till you started pouring concrete to tell me." " Congratulations." " Thank you very much." "She's not going anywhere." "Aye, she better not." "She's the one we bought." "This is your baby?" "Your other baby." "I'm having twins, exactly." " When are you off?" " Eight months." "So, four months' time." "But I'll be overlapping my maternity cover so you won't even notice I'm gone." " We've already started interviewing." " It'll be seamless." "Bollocks." "You're irreplaceable." "I wouldn't really call it a practice." "It was just me and a friend from Leeds and an intern." "Plus an overdraft." "We only won the Hyatt award because a couple of the big hitters were disqualified." "Do you remember that ban on curves the Government brought in at the last moment?" "Yes, I remember that now, but I think you're being too modest." "It's a very prestigious piece of furniture, the Hyatt." "How many have you got?" "Three." "Two are mine, but the other one..." "Are you going to pretend it was an easy field that year?" "No, I worked my arse off for that." "You were a bit of a prodigy." "Right place, right time." "People are always looking for the next hot young thing." "Not today, I hope." "You're still hot." "Glad someone said that." "Um, you've been working part-time for quite a few years now." "How do you feel about getting properly stuck back in?" "I'm absolutely ready." "My daughter's ten now." "I just never felt comfortable before." "I did think I'd be back way before now, but I don't believe in fighting what your body tells you." "And what does your body tell you?" "I'm ready." "It's only for a couple of months." "She thinks you'll be away a lot longer than that." "Maybe she's right." "I'll fall in love with this baby and realise how boring you are." "Another friend bites the dust." "No, she's different from me." "I like that." "We saw better candidates." "She had a better start than any of us." "If she's willing to pick up where she left off, I don't see a problem." "And she needs a break." "Aw, you're getting all mumsie already." "So, I know it's still months away, but just anything at all you need just ask and I'll get it sent over, so you can hit the ground running." "Right, thanks." "Yeah, I was going to ask, actually," "I'd love to do a day a week at the office, unpaid, just to find my way around." "I wanted to bring it up in the interview, but I didn't want to sound too creepy." "It's not creepy." "I just..." "You won't need to do that." "Well, that's fine." "I can do it from home, if you don't want to be too crowded." "Look, we will make sure that you've got plenty of time to shadow me." "Don't worry about it." "Well, this is really outstanding." "You found a client with some taste or you beat it into him." "Where did you get that?" "From Lucy." "Was that OK?" "Yeah, it's fine." "Do you mind if we just don't do it here, though?" "Yeah, sorry." "I'm a bit over-excited." "No, it's great, it's nice to see." "It's been a while, a project this big." "So, how are you managing your return?" "You know, family, childcare, denial." "How about you?" "Well, my husband's taking a step back." "Caris had me for the first ten years." "Now, I'm all yours." "Wow." "So, are your parents around to help?" "Er, just his." "Brothers?" "Sisters?" "Sorry, that's really none of my business." "No, so..." "I'm sorry." "Yeah, I've got a sister." "She's got two young kids, though, so I can't lean on her too much." "That's great." "You've had experience." "Yeah, yeah, I've changed nappies, I've done sleep-overs," "I've taken them to AE, done everything pretty much, except breast-feed, which..." "I know it's not the same when you can't give them back." "No, it's even better." "Honestly, you're about to have the time of your life." "Kay doesn't have kids, so she doesn't get it." "I know I've got you to thank for this." "Everyone loved you." "You'll learn this pretty fast, but, us mothers, we have to look out for each other, cos no one else will." "Shall we order?" "Yeah." "I don't need all this, Rianne." "I've got nowhere to put it." "You have no idea what you need." "I used to play with this." "Well, thank you, I will take really good care of it, OK?" "And it's only for a loan." "I can't wait for you to turn up on my door, weeping because you can't take any more." "Who could have too much of this?" "Can you babysit this weekend?" "We're not babies!" "Yeah, no problem." "I've got quite a lot of reading to do, anyway." "Before you know it, all you'll be reading is The Cat In The Hat." "That hurt?" "Well, why don't you want to know the sex of our baby?" "Normally, you want to micromanage every part of a project." "It doesn't mean I'm not excited!" "Happy?" "Paula's husband." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm Kieran." " Ellen, nice to meet you." " The new boss, heard all about you." " You sound too good to be true." " I'm not her boss." "Is she OK?" "Yeah, she just got held up at the library, so I said I could come and swing round, I don't want to keep you waiting." " Which library?" " Your one." " Right." " The construction site." "Yeah, she said she wanted to take some more photos." "Right, OK." "She not supposed to?" "I was just going to introduce her to the client." "It's fine, it doesn't matter." "They've already met." "Right, when?" "Last week." "Yeah, she's really got the bit between her teeth." "Well, that's great." "There you go." "You know, she's really grateful for this opportunity." "So am I." "How are you finding being at home?" "Um, yeah..." "Easier than I thought." "You didn't need to." "I said I'd make it." " Well, I thought it was urgent." " Well, I've hardly been here myself." "You might need those before you get in too far with Vernon." "I didn't know what to do." "He literally called me out the blue, just wanted to meet up to put a face to the name." "He asked me not to bother you." "I know it was a mistake." "It doesn't matter." "How did you find him?" "Yeah." "Hands-on." "Go and see what she wants." "Well, it was good to meet you." "Nice to meet you." "I'm so sorry about Vernon." "Can you just let me know if he asks you to keep anything else quiet?" "Absolutely." "Of course." "I'm so sorry." "I was just playing with the sightlines at the entrance." "So, they see that before they..." "Right." "It was just for me." "I didn't want anyone..." "No, no, no, I think that's a great idea and you should present it to Vernon." "He'll love it and it'll help bed you in." "Plus, that's not going to cost anything, which is the kind of bright idea that clients love." "What?" "I just don't know how you keep it together." "Have you felt anything yet?" "Er, no." "Don't worry, I was 25 weeks when I had a first kick." "I was climbing the walls." "I'm not that worried." "I wish I was as relaxed as you." "I'm not that relaxed." "I so miss this." "Right." "I'll see you in a bit." "All right, see you." "I hear Paula is doing great." "Vernon called." "How's her contract coming along?" "Well, I think it's almost there." "Was she up to speed on the building regs?" "You do not have to keep apologising for talking me into it." "I'm sold." "Loving the new sightlines." "Great." "In fact, we were thinking about pulling her start date forward a month or so, what do you think?" "Yeah, that works for me." "And even if you weren't going on leave, we'd need to botch something up and, this way, we can plan it properly." "Yeah." "Makes sense." "It's going to be really weird not having you around." " It's only for a couple of months." " You say that now..." " No, I mean it!" " Course you do!" "Arrr!" " Do you think he'd take ten years off?" " No." "Not even if I did first?" "The only way you'd take ten years out would be if you were in a coma." "Still on about work?" "Rianne thinks our relationship would benefit from some forward planning." "Thanks." "I've got enough neurotics at work." "Has he come back to you on names?" "Names are private." "That'll be a no, then." "Tough day at the office." "They're all tough days at the moment, aren't they?" "Hey." "Do you know what?" "I loved your new take on the skylight." "It is really, really... sexy." "Thank you." "I came up with it when I was having that meeting on the acoustics, of all things." "Yeah?" "Well, we both love the idea of it." "I'm sensing a "but."" "Kay's a bit worried we're going to unsettle Vernon, chopping and changing." "The new entrance is great and, listen, we're all for evolving the design, but maybe, maybe, we need to let things bed in for a wee bit before we... before we pitch anything else at him?" "You're nixing it." "It's not a competition, Ellen." "It was a competition, but we won it." "You won it." "Is that what you think I'm doing?" "Competing with the new girl, to impress the boss?" "No!" "No, listen, your position here is completely unassailable." "You must know that." "We love you." "We love you, Ellen." "Why-why are you saying that?" " You wouldn't say that if I was a man." " Yeah, I would!" "I'd say it even more, I'd say, "I really love you, man."" "It's not a competition." "Paula and I are just... over-excited." "We'll cool it." "And the skylight can wait." "Well, now you have to tell me." "I just didn't think that a baby would change everything even before it's born." "Me and Kay." "She thinks that you and Paula have got more in common now." "We're completely the opposite!" "I don't even li-..." "We have nothing in common." "One pretty big thing." "No." "Paula and I have a professional relationship." "Now it sounds like I'm sleeping with her." " Good night." " Good night." "I'm sorry." "Cheers." "My god, you nearly gave me a heart attack!" "I'm the same." "It's easier to think when the builders are gone." "Are you sure you should you be here?" "The floor's really uneven." "I have been on sites before." "That came out wrong." "I'm... sorry." "I didn't even know that you had the access code for out-of-hours!" "I'm not sure that you're insured yet." "No, I am." "I checked." "I wouldn't make that kind of mistake." "Right." "Any new ideas?" "No." "I think it's probably best to let Vernon digest what he's got on his plate." "Let the ideas bed in." "Yeah, I mean, we don't want to panic him by evolving the design too fast." "So, why are you here?" "I just came to check my sightlines were working as I imagined." "Thanks." "So, any butterflies?" "Nope." "They're going to lunch!" "I'm telling you, she's moving in on everyone!" "And us." "What?" "I got a text, as well." "We're all going." "Well, I never got anything." "Well, why's she sending it to my personal account?" "Panic over?" "How did she get your number, anyway?" "She's got no business texting you." "That's weird." "I don't mind a Cava, as well." "I think..." "I think it was probably partly me!" " You tried too many times." " I did." "This place is amazing." "Kay said you helped out." "No, not really." "This is all her." "Kay was just telling us how you all met." "Yeah, we go back a long way." "I think it's great when friends can work together." "It is." "Except when they're a fucking nightmare." "So, I had to do a very special cheese run for her ladyship." "She's so particular." "But you can't." "Soft cheese..." "listeria." "You let her eat unsupervised?" "It's like having a toddler already." "Anything that's not nailed down." "Sorry!" "Anyone else for botulism?" " Thank you, Kay!" " You're welcome." "Honestly, the food was amazing." " See you again." " See you soon." " Bye." "My god!" "My god!" " I just felt the baby kick!" "Quick!" " Well, I didn't feel anything." "Just give it a minute." "Sometimes it takes..." "I-I can just wait for the next one." "Really." "Honestly, you didn't feel that?" "That was one hell of a kick!" " No, I didn't." "Sorry." " That wasn't the first time, was it?" "No." "No." "Let's go." "Right." "See you soon." " Bye." " Bye." " Bye." " Thank you." "Bye bye." "Anyone else want to feel me up?" "No!" "Well, she is entitled to her personal space." "Even if her personal space has grown to gigantic proportions!" "Look, I know she can be a bit full-on, but so is the client." "And he can't get enough of her." "Sorry." "You know what, instead of complaining she's more excited about the baby than you are, how about you work up some interest?" " Didn't know it was a performance." " I'm sorry." "I didn't mean that." "Good." "Because believe me, if I didn't want to have this baby," "I wouldn't be having it." ""It"." "I am not the first woman in history not to want to know!" "That was everyone until 50 years ago." "It's you that's the control freak and it's you that wants me to conform to some fucking women's magazine." "Well, it's my body, Ian, and you better understand, I'm the one that's in charge of it!" "I love you." "Stop winding me up, then!" "You're right." "She's a psychopath." "Thank you." "That's more like it." "All good." "It's great to break out of the office occasionally." "Yeah, isn't it just?" "Now, this... is for being a wonderful client." "Well, well, what have we here, then?" "Wow." "Glorious vintage." "I can't." "Don't be silly." "It's from everyone." "No, I mean, legally." "Yeah, you can buy me six glasses of it... but I cannot accept gifts." "Well, I'll drink it." "So, have you been here a lot?" "No, I'm not going to be one of those clients." "But Paula's keeping you updated?" "More than." "You made an excellent hire." "Thanks for signing off on the entrance plans." "I think those sightlines are going to work really well." "Was that you?" "I'm not going to take credit for it." "I hate bosses that do that." "I thought you weren't her boss." "Well, I didn't plan to be." "It's just... sort of," " the way it's worked out." " Well, it's turned out really well." "And I am really looking forward to the presentation." "Yeah." "Why is there a presentation?" "It's automatically triggered by the second invoice." "We're not at the second invoice till the 18th." " We're a week or two adrift." "No biggie." " I almost looked like a complete tit in front of the client." "That's quite a biggie." "Paula knows." "She put in the budget request." "Take it out on her." "I'll even have a go at Lucy, if it'll make you feel better." "I just feel like there are conversations being had and I'm not across it." "Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean that" " I..." "No, wait." "Just because you are pregnant doesn't mean anything at all, Ellen." "Nothing at all, either way." "I'm not seeing you any differently." "You're being hypersensitive." "I just don't want this to change what we..." "How we work together." " Why would it?" " I don't know." "I can't be responsible for whatever changes you are going through, but I love you and I will always be there for you." "No-one is going to replace you." "I will talk to Paula and I will never bother you with any of this shit again." "Good." "But I don't want you bottling it up, either." "Not in your condition." "I was going to tell you once I'd had confirmation." "I've been playing phone tag with his PA." "I didn't think you'd want to be copied in on all that." "Copy me on everything." "I don't know how to say this to you, without sounding really patronising." "Go for it." "OK." "You want to be on top of everything, and I understand that, but it's honestly not possible and you will make yourself ill." "I nearly had a breakdown clinging onto my old life." "I mean, never mind a baby, once that's on your CV, you really are screwed." "This isn't going to be my old life, Paula." "Just because you decided to jack it in and stay at home for ten years" " doesn't mean that I'm going to." " Forget ten years," "I'm talking about right now." "You're never going to be pregnant again for the first time, but there will be other buildings." "What you're going through right now is a million times more meaningful than whether or not the library gets a skylight." "I want you to stop cutting me out of conversations with my client and my bosses." "I honestly never meant to do that." "I thought I was doing you a favour." "Of course." "Great." "You're going through the most amazing, wonderful time of your life." "Don't treat it like an inconvenience." "Are you sure it's not you that's clinging on to your old life?" "Maybe you'd just rather be at home with Caris." "Maybe you don't like being around someone that doesn't take motherhood so deadly seriously." "I do like you being around you." "And I am really sorry if I've insulted you." "I asked you in here to talk about work, that's it." "I was just trying to look out for you." "You're not here to look out for me!" "I always thought it was the person actually having the baby that got to act crazy." "You got weird when I was pregnant with Nina." " Did I?" " Yeah." "Big time." "Water under the bridge." "Evidently not." "Did I criticise your mothering skills?" "No, you didn't talk to me at all for the best part of a year." "We're making up for it now, so it's fine." "I was ill." "That didn't have anything to do with you being pregnant." "It had nothing to do with you." "You got a boyfriend out of it." "You're really going to have to stop calling him my boyfriend." "Sorry, your psychiatrist." "Fire her." "I can't fire her... she's my sister!" "Paula." "No, it'll look terrible, it'll just look like I'm jealous or something." "Her work's really good." "Then you have to make friends with her." "Can you please pretend that I am a patient with an actual legitimate problem that's causing me significant emotional distress?" "I'm listening." "You mean work it out for myself." "Those are the only solutions that work." "Please!" "I'm falling out with my sister, I'm falling out with everyone at work..." "I'm asking you for help, not self-help." "You can't fire her, you can't stand her... minimise contact with her." "E-mail, don't phone." "Pretend she's my mother." "Can you check if someone's had mental health issues?" "Not easily, I mean, you could check..." "No, you, you." "Can you check?" "You mean, like, look up their medical records and tell you?" "You don't love me." "I mean, I would have plenty of time to look after Liam... after I've been struck off." "Leah, if it's a girl." "OK, so we've got a big presentation coming up, to the client." "Do I cut her out of it or do I include her in it?" "Make her the star of it." "You promised you were going to stop winding me up." "No, normalise." "De-escalate." "Make nice." "Why do I have to be the one to bend over backwards?" "You are never the one!" "Single soya, decaf." "I..." "Thanks." "Vernon's running ten minutes late." "OK." " Don't forget the name of that designer." " No, I won't, I've got it in my bag." " Thanks for that." " You'll love it." "I heard that..." "Hi." "How are you feeling about today?" "Yeah, raring to go." "I'd like you to give the presentation." "You're joking?" "You're heading up phase two." "I think it's appropriate." "Wow, I haven't prepared anything!" " You know it backwards." " Yeah, but not as a presentation!" "You'll be great." "You always are." "Why can't you do it?" "I just... feel a bit nauseous, and dizzy, and, do you know, it's..." " God..." " I don't want to push..." "Sorry..." "If you don't want..." "Of course, of course I will." "Shit, I'll go and get ready." " Thanks." " Smart move." "Putting her on the spot in front of the client." "That's not what I'm doing." "Well, I think I've copied you into everything." "Listen, I've been meaning to say about that..." "I-I didn't want you to think I was having a go at you." "No, I know." "I know who you were having a go at." "What is a library?" "Who even uses that word any more?" "They were rebranded ten years ago as "idea stores", and in the age of the internet, who's crazy enough to sink" "12.9 million into something your phone can do faster and without leaving your living room or your desk?" "I mean, where would we find such a lunatic?" "When I first took my daughter to a library, the first thing she said when I tried to explain it to her was, "Sshh"." "She knew what it meant." "It was a place for thinking and breathing and not for running around, because that's what the internet does to our minds, it pumps them up and sets us racing like rats in a maze." "When they open the door, we want them to feel the way you do when you enter the favourite room in your home." "When winter comes, the library becomes a place of shelter as well as learning." "And what it's asking you to do is find a sense of comfort and resolution, not in the cold blue glow of a laptop, but in the golden glow of a book." "It's not an idea store." "It's a library." "I could never have pulled that off if I'd been obsessing over it for days." "You telling me you haven't been practising that in a mirror?" "No, it's just random thoughts that go round in my head while I'm working." "I take my hat off, I really do." "If you want me to resign, I will." "Well, I could have got all tongue-tied, but I didn't think that'd reflect well on you." "This way, you're a great manager." "So you blew them away to make me look good?" "That's lovely, thanks, and if I said yes, you'd just march straight in there and resign, would you?" "What would you say?" "You'd say I bullied you out." " I could invent something." " Bullshit!" "You don't want me to resign." "You want me to fail." "Ellen, can't we fix this?" "I mean, I'm sorry for anything that I've said that's upset you." "I mean, can't we all go for dinner?" "That's a terrible idea." "Why?" "The last time we all got together it was fine." "Your husband didn't have a problem with me." "OK, you know what, we don't need to be best friends." "You're doing a good job." "You are." "Keep it up for another three months and that's all it needs." "You really think you'll be back that early?" "I don't need to hear another word about anything that's not work-related." "Well, I would be failing in my duty as a mother and as a human being if I didn't speak out when I see an accident about to happen, because it's not all about you." "No, you do not get to give a running commentary on my life." "It's not just your life." "If you question my choices one more time..." "I messed up on the compliances and I'm sorry." "Hey, I'm sure it's fixable." "I can't see any planning officer holding you at bay for long." "It's nothing serious." "Massively over-reacted." "Paula's been fantastic." "Yeah, there's just a lot of creative energy zipping around in here." "It's all good, it's all good." "All good." "All good." "Right." "Well, thanks." "Thanks, Vernon." "Don't take any shit." "It's her baby, too, you know." "Yeah, yeah, I see-see what you mean, sorry, yeah." "Ellen, you got a minute?" "Actually, I j..." "Of course." "Sorry." "Paula, really good work today." "It was mostly Ellen." "You need to stop that." "You really do." "The lawyers came back to us." "Did they find anything?" "Her currency with the building regs... that was my only reservation about her." "I'm talking about your contract." "Now, the law's constantly changing and nothing's black and white, but we all thought seven months was a good cut-off." "Cut-off for?" "For your maternity leave." "No, there's no reason for me to leave that early." "You shouldn't really be on a building site past six months." "It's perfectly legal." "It's not about the legals." "I couldn't live with myself if something happened." "I don't think Paula's up to it." "We think she is." "I know that I said that I would never bring this again..." "Yes, you did." "Please can you just put yourself in my position?" "What, you want me to imagine being pregnant?" "Ellen, for God's sake, will you stop tiptoeing around it?" "Not everyone wants kids!" "I am not bursting with jealousy about you and to tell you the truth, the way you've been acting the last few months," "I am thanking my lucky stars I made the smart choice." "What about David?" "I am speaking for David, as well as myself." "So I'm the only one that has a problem with her." "What is your problem?" "She wants me out so she can take over." "She's already bagged Lucy!" "Well, she hasn't bagged me and I'm the one that counts!" "Paula said it was all her fault." "I don't care." "I never want to see that in front of a client ever again." "You won't." "I'm really sorry." "It was a triumph." "Let's not-let's not turn it into anything else." "Yeah, let's not." "Come on." "Come on." "Group hug." "Come on." "That's it." "That's it." "No feeling up." "If I had to call it right now, I'd say antenatal depression." "She's feeling threatened by her maternity leave cover and it's... it's got way out of control." "Well, the trick is persuading her." "She's heard about post-natal depression." "She doesn't realise that it can start way before." "Are you going to tell me what she was seeing you for?" "Well, that was six years ago." "That was well before we started seeing each other." "I mean, are the episodes connected?" "Her mother died and she was on anti-depressants for 18 months, and now she's becoming a mother herself." "I mean, the problem is the symptoms, if they are symptoms and not me projecting my own anxieties..." "Hormones?" "I believe that's the technical term." "Yeah..." "I'll call you back." "Was that your mother?" "She's not just my mother..." "she is a professional." "Look, I'm not saying I'm right, but I love you and I'm worried." "I'm not your patient any more!" "I'm your wife." "Are you seriously going to question my mental state because I'm pregnant?" "Or because I got a little bit too sad when my mother died?" "I got a call from Paula today." "No, wait." "She said nothing but lovely things about you." "She said everyone at work is worried about you." "And she sounded worried." "I am going to have to fucking kill her." "They can't all be out to get you." "You're in danger of alienating your entire office." "If you don't want my opinion, I won't give it." "Good, because the last time, it blew up in my face." ""Make her the star."" "Maybe take some time off." "Well, you don't have to worry..." "they're laying me off next month." "We had a fight." "Wow!" "What's this?" "A small token of my appreciation." "Apologies for my rampant hormones." "That's so lovely!" "But I should be getting you flowers." "Are you all ready for next month?" "I've been meaning to talk to you about that." "I really, really, really don't want a surprise party." "Really." "We have to go for a drink." "It doesn't need to be a surprise." "I can't have a drink." "It'll be quick and painless." "You can't just sneak off." "Not after ten years." "You're making it sound like a wake!" "No-one's ever said that about one of my parties." "Are you sure you don't want to wait for your husband?" "He's busy." "And you're sure you want to know the gender?" "I'm ready." "Leah." "Hi." "I've got a problem with the fuel sourcing." "He says he's cool with the sustainability but he doesn't like the underfloor heating." "He says it's poncey and doesn't gel with his vision." "Don't you love it when clients explain your own vision back to you?" " Is he trying to save money?" " I don't think it's that." "Do you agree with him?" "As long as it's sustainable, I don't have a strong view." "Right, we'll have to switch the tiles back." "I've already got samples from your initial design." "You can see them onsite." "I'll send them to you." "No, I need to touch them." "I can go and pick them up, bring them over?" "No, I need to see them in the light there." "Do you need to see them or do you need to feel them?" "Both." "That's how design mistakes get made, looking at things in isolation." "OK, I'll drive you." "No, I can still drive, thanks." "I'll just see you there." "We'll have children running on these." "My skylight?" "We wanted it to be a surprise." "How did you get my designs?" "They're not on the system." "David sent them." "We wanted to show you at the party." "Thanks." "I appreciate that." "My God!" "I'm fine." "You have to go to a hospital!" "I'm absolutely fine." " I'm serious!" " No." "No-one needs to know about this." "Look, I have to report it and you have to get checked out." "If you report this as a workplace accident, you're going to cause all sorts of trouble." "Ellen, it's the law." "I'm not even supposed to be here." "God, I didn't know..." "I didn't know that." "OK." "I am asking you not to report this." "I will get in trouble." "I will probably be suspended." "That might not be such a bad thing." "I'm sorry you had to go like this." "I didn't." "Give it a few months." "I hope you've got Kay's back." "You're wrong about Paula." "Didn't I say she'd get me out early?" "This isn't early, Ellen." "This is bang on." "Is Kay going to speak to me?" "Once Health and Safety have called off the Rottweilers." " Give it a few days." " I'm not going to sue her!" "No, but they might." "I'm not the one that called them." "Paula did the right thing, Ellen... she did the right thing." "Does Vernon know?" "He had to be told." "Great, so he's not going to want me back." "All he wanted to know was were you OK." "Is there anything else that I can do?" "I'm going to miss you." "I suppose she'll see you in three months, then." "Listen, tell her to take as long as she needs." "If it was down to me, she wouldn't be coming back." "You haven't exactly helped her feel secure, have you?" "We're still friends, but this is the kind of thing that could put us out of business." "That's right." "You've known her twice as long as me." "Took you how long to jump ships?" "Bit below the belt." "She's too nice to blame you." "I'm not." "I hope you're not taking it out on him." "He suspended you, didn't he?" "I'm not suspended." "I'm full-time from home." "You're suspended." "I hope you're resting well." "Everything's great here." "The studs are up and we're going to take the first fix of services next week." "I think we've still got time to talk Vernon round on the underfloor heating." "He feels so bad about what happened, but I told him it's partly his fault." "Thanks for the video." "I appreciate that." "I don't have any major issues but I do want to talk about the staircase." "I'm really not sure about chrome and I definitely think the barrier should be eight millimetres, not ten." "My other worry is the main hall." "I want to get more light into the reading area." "I know it's north light, but I still want it to bounce and I also think that we can incorporate some of the cases into an inhabited wall." "I did a random site visit today..." "This woman never puts a foot wrong." "I've been onto the contractor..." "We're going to have to raise our game." "Never take her down from in here." "He's going to store the plasterboard off site from now on until the roof's sorted." "It's going to take something monumental." "Who are you talking to?" "Leah." " Who do you think?" " What about?" "I don't think she cares." "Get out the way." "Are you talking to her about work?" "Do you want us to bond or not?" "You don't listen to your mummy." "Shut up, you!" "This is where my office is, Leah." "Right here." "Hi." "How's it going?" "Been better." "Everything seems to be going great with the library." "Is everything cool?" "Not really." "That's why I'm calling." "Where are you?" "I was..." "I was just driving to the shops." "Are you anywhere near the site?" "I'm here now." "I thought I wasn't allowed." "We've fixed the floor." "I could do with seeing you." "I need to talk to you." "Things have got really shitty around here." "Are you all right?" "It's easier if you meet me here." "I finally know what's been going on." "Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way." " You're not about to pop, are you?" " For you, I will hold it in." "See you in a minute." "Leah!" "That's Paula!" "She's finally made a mistake!" "It's all starting to unravel!" "Hey." "Hi... are you inside?" "The access code's been changed." "Here you go." "Kay?" "Kay?" "Kay!" "I'm so sorry." "Why did she call you?" "There's no evidence of any crime." "Why would she call me to come over?" "I want this to be about us now." "There was something she was upset about." "Do you know what?" "She thought I was having an affair." "Maybe there was somebody else on the roof." "Where were you?" "At home." "Why would you want Kay's phone?" "" "There might be something on it." "I wanted to say sorry for the way that I behaved towards you." "Hi, am I speaking to Georgia?" "Who's this?" "Georgia!" "False accusations, mental health history... don't go there." "You're on probation." "How do you persuade someone that they need help?" "Someone who has a problem accepting reality." "You go, I'll stay." "I don't think we should leave these two alone." "Sooner or later," "I'm going to get to Georgia and I'm going to find out what you were hiding."
