"That's not mine. lt's gay!" "KNOCK AT DOOR" "Dylan sent you these." "As an apology." "Dylan sent them?" "OK, might have been my idea." "Tell me to piss off if you want." "No. I appreciate it." "They're beautiful." "Oh!" "It's a long story." "Do you fancy a drink?" "You have to tell them, lan." "It's the only way out." " The Maguires?" " Kash!" "You know, what do you think they're going to say?" "They'll hate him for it." "He won't just be a liar, he'll be a queer liar." "So what's your advice?" "Live a lie?" "Marriage?" "Kids?" "Mandy's a nice girl, lan." "You can't do that to her." "You can't do that to yourself." "You're not doing the honourable thing." "You're just ruining everyone's life." "So..." "There's no mum, she pissed off years ago and moved in with another woman." "What, "moved in" moved in?" "Yes!" "You can't say she didn't give being straight a decent shot." "Six kids." "Who's the bloke?" "Sorry, grab another drink." "Ian?" "I don't wanna talk about it." "OK." "You know I'm here when you do." "Listen. I should get back." "No." "Stay." "He writes me these letters, begging, pleading with me to stand by him." "Yeah." "I wouldn't mind, but he's doing life!" "You get lonely, though." "All them nights sleeping on your own." "Yeah, I'm the same." "Single bloke on me own. lt's not easy." "Yeah." "Sometimes all you want is the warmth of another body next to yours." "Do you fancy clearing that bar tab, Frank?" "Does the Pope shit in the woods?" "We're talking...all of it?" "Like it never existed." "You two get off, I'll finish up here." "No, no, no way!" "Look, she's going to clear the whole lot!" "Tab gone!" "350 smackers, vanished!" "For sex with you?" "Shut up!" "What about Sheila?" "You can't fucking shag someone for money!" "That's scraping it, even by your standards." "Hello?"

"Playing hard to get, Frank?" "We'll see about that." "No, no, wait!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oof!" "What the... !" "What are the chances of that?" "Come back here, you bastards!" "Two lads, druggies, I just seen them running off towards the park." "Right, I'm calling the police!" "A big help you were!" "You got out of it, didn't you?" "Fucking come here!" "She was all over you!" "You can't keep that out of other people's business, can you?" "We had a plan until you came along and fucked it up!" "Frank!" "She was sucking you off!" "I wouldn't say sucking." " D'you know your problem, Frank?" " What?" "You never think about anyone but yourself!" "Never take responsibility!" " You're like a pathetic little kid!"

"Here's your dinner money." "That's for your trip." "All right?" "is your lan in?" "Engagement party tomorrow night." "Mum thinks everyone should meet." "See you later, sweetheart." "I've asked her to marry me." "Does that mean we'll be related?" "Speak for yourself." "Oi!" "Are you right in the head?" "I had no option." "What are you on about?" "You can't marry, you're fucking gay!" "Went round to talk to her parents." "I were going to tell them the truth." "About everything." "But the words wouldn't come out." "They thought I were nervous so they started talking for me." "Before I knew, I were getting engaged!" "They've given us a bleeding ring!" "You can't do it, lan." "I've no fucking choice!" "What do you want?" "Engagement party?" "Why are you doing this?" "He's a better man than you." "You're going to let him marry you?" "Mandy, what do you want?" "Lip, nothing I want to hear."
