It's a bit of a choker, isn'it?
Is he gonna be all right?
Aye. They've just sedated him. Had to give him a blood transfusion. Over two litres. It's a good job the ambulance got there so quick.
What happened, for God's sake?
Oh, there was a bit of a rumble in this Bierkeller with some German lads. Magowan turned up. Oz got his arm slashed with a beer glass.
Magowan. I might have known! That man could start a fight in an empty house! An' Oz isn't far behind!
You've got it wrong, Neville. It's my fault. I started all the trouble.
You did?
Aye.
Doctor, this is one of Mr. Osbourne's colleagues, Neville Hope.
Hello. [Neville shakes her hand]
How do you do, Doctor?
Your friend is a very lucky man.
Aye, I know. We're very grateful for what you've done.
Don't thank me for doing my job, Mr. Hope. [She goes into Oz's room] Guten Abend. Ist alles gut? (Good evening. All is well?)
Alles gut. (All good.)
I just wish you men could settle arguments without resorting to violence.
This isn't typical, Doctor.
I see a lot of people injured in stupid drunken fights about football or women.
Yeah... is he going to be all right, then?
Oh, yes. He's lost a lot of blood, but that's been replaced. I've given him a sedative to help him rest. And, er... fortunately the wound isn't too large. He'll have a scar, of course. But, if he wishes, that can be put right.
Put right?
[As they leave Oz's room] Yes. Cosmetic surgery, skin graft, whatever.
Oh, I hope you don't mind me askin', Doctor, but while you're here, is there anything I can do about this? [Takes off his coat]
Look, Neville, I don't think this is the right place or time.
Oz won't mind, Dennis. And I've gotta do somethin' aboot it. [Rolls up his sleeve to show the doctor his tattoo]
Doctor [Glancing briefly at the tattoo] Who is Lotte?
I don't know. But it's not the wife. That's just the trouble.
So... this is an unwanted souvenir of your time in Germany.
Very much unwanted. I've already lied to the wife once about it. I bandaged it up and told her it was an injury. I cannae keep doin' that all me life, can I? [The doctor just looks at Neville.]
