[To Professor Jaggat] You know one of the few things I like about you is that you don't call supper 'tea'. There are many things I hate in this modern world: secularism, showbiz news, but tea is barbaric.
S2The Looking Glass
My mother's maiden name is Herod, my internet password is 'password1', I'm indifferent about all competitive sports, and I prefer lager to beer. I don't understand fishing. What is fishing? I'm scared of cancer, I voice hypocritical objections to drive-through takeaways and I lost my virginity on a canal boat in Tring.
Favourite colour?
That would be gamboges - it's a kind of orangey brown.
You're not scared of me?
No, at least probably not as much as I should be.
What did you say?
S2In The Morning
George, I didn't think you would seriously go through with it. I thought the moment would just pass. You know, like when you decided you were gonna wear skinny jeans.
Skinny jeans?
That was a private conversation.
Skinny jeans, George? Seriously?
It...it was a moment of madness.
No, this is a moment of madness! You cannot move in with someone you've just started dating! Tell him, Mitchell!
Skinny jeans, George?!?
Yes, yes, alright...look, where the hell were you last night?
I was with Lucy. We, er...we finally, um...you know. Decided to, em...
Oh, this is like the problem pages of Just 17. You had sex, Mitchell. Sex.
Yeah.
Christmas 1998. Faulty panto pyrotechnic. One minute I'm standing in the wings watching Widow Twankey belt out a chorus of "La Vida Loca" the next? Bang! Flat out on my back with every hair on my body standing to attention.
Gosh, that's awful.
It was a terrible shock.
Yeah, I bet it was.
No, I mean literally. It was a terrible shock. That's what killed me.
You can say it, George. I'm not gonna cry or anything.
We've found a new house and we're gonna stay there tonight.
[Annie starts to sob] Oh, God!
I'm just one step away from wiping out an entire branch of Argos.
Look. You just spread the word, OK. I want everyone there.
Just leave it to me. I've got most of them on my Twitter feed, so...
Ivan, I've met someone. I can't be with her and be part of this. I know it's a big ask. I know it's a huge favor, but I can't. She's my way out of this chaos. This could be my last chance and if I get...Oh, forget it! It doesn't matter.
You should have said it was about love. I get it now. We all lead long and appalling lives. But I have my Daisy. Everyone deserves a Daisy.
S2Damage
[To George] You know, it's like you're still there. Sat in that house with Mitchell, watching The Real Hustle, surrounded by cups of cold tea.
They might have a cure.
For what?
Cystitis. What do you think?!
Right, so we have a defrocked priest and a mad scientist. No, no alarm bells ringing so far.
Daisy needs closure. And she's decided that the best way of getting that is by cutting your throat.
It's healthy to turn anger outward, you see.
Ah no, not him again. I thought he moved out! He's always fucking here.
Oh god. Are you drunk? I hate it when you're drunk. Listen, I need to tell you something important and you'll probably want to have a wrestle, but, uh, listen. I'm going to that place with Nina and the priest and Professor Jaggat.
And I'm going to go with him.
Yeah. So, ah—
Good. Piss off. 'Cause I'm getting really sick of your dog hairs on my clothes.
I could save you.
Excuse me?
I saw you in the hospital. The way George looked at you when you were dying. This isn't that man.
I don't get saved.
