"I thought you were staying here with us." "Keep in touch." "Bye, Dad." "[Joanie] Do you want me to open you a can of beer?" "That would be lovely, Joanie." "With you in a sec." "I'm giving it another chance with Chook." "As soon as he gets out of the correction centre." "They've accused him of raping a Japanese tourist, which is ridiculous!" "Chook hates the Japanese." "We better fly." "We're meeting Rose Biggs for lunch." "Rose Biggs?" "Are you friends with her?" "Once we got to know her, we found out she was just like us." " But Rose Biggs sucked your husband's cock." "Oh, she did." " Rhonda!" "I know, but, well..." "I sucked her husband's cock, and it made me realize we all make mistakes." "[Muriel] Hi." " [Mrs. Epinstall] Mariel." " Muriel." "What a surprise." "Rhonda, Mariel..." "Muriel's come to visit you." "Actually I've come to ask Rhonda if she wants to come back to Sydney." "I've got a taxi outside and two plane tickets, if you want to." "What about your husband?" "We broke up." "[Whispers] I knew it wouldn't last." "What makes you think I'd go anywhere with you?" "Because I'm your friend." "Muriel, you can't come barging in here without warning, trying to turn Rhonda against the people who love her." "Against the people who were there for her when she needed them." " Yes, she can." " [Sighs]" "Sorry, Mum." "You know I love you, but you drive me crazy." "And you three..." "What a bunch of cocksuckers." "[Laughing]" "Who do you think you are to call me that?" "I'm married!" "I'm beautiful!"
