[To the barman] A large cognac, please, chief. [Notices Dennis] Hello, Den. What are you doin' here?
Nightcap.
Yeah? Me too. D'you want another?
Scotch, please.
[To the barman] That's a large Scotch too, please, squire. [To Dennis] I thought you were stayin' out all night.
No, I changed me mind. [Wayne goes over to Dennis. The barman puts their drinks on the bar]
Things not work out with, er, Dagmar and your old lady, then?
[Shakes his head] I thought I was just being above board, yer kna, straight and honest. Vera said I was showin' off.
Showin' off?
Showin' off Dagmar. I mean, she's a smart lass, isn't she? Attractive and honest. I dunno, that's probably what I was doin'. [Coughs]
Well, she is rather special, that Dagmar, ain't she? Mind you, so is her mate.
Christa? Hey, you an' me've... collared the clerical staff, havvn't we? Eh?
I wish I had, Den.
No? Things not work out, like?
She wouldn't let me get near her, would she? Mind you, I didn't want to, y'know. No, I didn't want to sort of come on strong and jump it, like.
Hey, you're slippin', aren't yer?
I'm smitten, Den. Now listen, don't tell the lads, right? Now, I can confide in you, can't I? Now I know you've probably got your own problems and all that, but I can bend your ear a bit, can't I?
Just carry on, bonny lad, I havvn't a care in the world, me(!)
Yeah, well, look, I'm serious about this Christa, right. I know it's madness, but I'm really bowled over. Now, don't tell the lads, eh?
My lips are sealed, all right?
I get embarrased just thinking about it, you know? "It'll never happen to me," I said. It bloody has, ain't it?
Hey... you really are serious, aren't yer?
I'm deadly serious, Den. Of course, er, never having been in this situation before, it's pretty hard to be certain about the symptoms. [Dennis chuckles] But I think... well, listen, I'm positive, sunbeam, that this is it. It's devastating, mate. Devastating.
Ahh, it's not the end of the world, that, man. Go for it!
Yeah, but I can't fathom it, can I? And the trouble is, we're shipping out in a week or two, ain't we?
So?
So I've gotta decide whether to go home or chance me arm here, ain't I?
Yeah, you're not the only one that's gotta make that decision.
You too?
[Nods his head] Mmm-hmm.
You mean home or Dagmar?
[Shakes his head] I mean Vera or Dagmar.
[Exhales] Blimey, Dennis. What are we gonna do?
Well, I was about to get pissed. You care to join me? [They chuckle]
