S3The Mainland

(Jack is having his eyesight tested).

OOptician

Well I'm confused. His eyesight seems to be perfect. He read all the way down to the last line of the chart, and even I can't see that one.

(The chart is reavealed to repeat the word "drink" over and over.)

I see. Thing is, Jack has a great fondness for that particular word.

OOptician

Well, it's the first time I've used that particular chart actually. I got it free with a promotional crate of Carlsberg.

Okay, we'll come back and pick Jack up later. (They leave.)

OOptician

And now for a chart made by Slovakia's premier lens manufacturers, Feck Arse Industries. (She replaces the chart with a new chart which repeats the words "Feck Arse" over and over.)

Upon meeting Richard Wilson, a.k.a. Victor Meldrew

You know what he'd love? He'd really love it if someone came up to him and said his catchphrase.

Oh, yeah, Ted! He'd love that! You should definitely do that.

Should I?

Oh, yeah. I'd say no-one ever does that to him. He'll think you're hilarious. You know, this is one of those times where I'm absolutely, one hundred million percent sure that you'll be doing the right thing. I can safely say that you definitely, definitely won't regret doing that.

Okay, I'm going to do it. Will I?

Yeah, go on!

Okay, hold the camera.

[Ted walks over to Wilson, who is talking to a tour guide]

(yells loudly) I don't believe it!

[Wilson violently assaults Ted, and has to be restrained]

I'll bloody well kill you!

[Ted eventually escapes Wilson, and walks back to Dougal, looking shellshocked]

Well? What did he say? Did he laugh?

No. No, no, no. Not really. I'm going to sit down now.

[Father Jack is unwittingly attending an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting]

RRonald

At that stage, I was drinking over a pint of vodka a day.

RRonald

Yes. At that point, all I could think about was where the next drink was coming from.

DRINK!

RRonald

I didn't give a damn about my wife or kids.

Blehhhhh!

TGTour Guide

Now, this rock here is actually granite.

How long would that have been there?

TGTour Guide

Oh, many, many millions of years.

Really, as long as that? That is fascinating.

How come all the rocks are different sizes?

TGTour Guide

Well... you know, rocks are generally different sizes.

Wow! I'm finding out all kinds of things I never knew about rocks.

TGTour Guide

Of course, at this time, this whole area would have been submerged underwater.

How did everyone breathe?

They'd have had some sort of apparatus.

Oh, right. Wow, look at that rock over there!

TGTour Guide

This is actually the oldest part of our tour. This particular cave was formed more than fifteen million years ago.

Really? Wow, I don't believe it.

[the man in front of Ted turns around; it's Richard Wilson]

You again! [attacks Ted] Get out of it, I don't want to see you again! BASTARD!

TTony

(Losing patience) WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!

(Offended) Well Tony, that wasn't very friendly. I don't think I like you any more. In fact, I'm putting you on my enemies list. (Gets out a notepad and begins writing). (Suddenly happy again) Only joking! See what I really wrote. (He shows Tony his pad. It reads "I REALLY like Tony".

FNFather Noel Furlong

[with only his hand visible] They were just going to find the tour operator, tell him I'm burried under a huge pile of rocks and be right back.

[cut to] :Aer Lingus staff: And that's four tickets to Paraguay.

There was a time when the police in this country were friends of the church; speeding tickets torn up, drunk driving charges quashed, even a blind eye turned to the odd murder!

[last line of the episode; Richard Wilson has just arrived at the Parochial House, and Ted has answered the door]

I DON'T BELIEVE IT!

TTony

(Losing patience) WILL YOU SHUT UP! WILL YOU! WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP! WILL YOU SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!

(Offended) Well... well I've never... I've never... Tony, I'm putting you on my list of enemies. (Gets out a notepad and begins writing)There...you're in for it now Tony... (Suddenly happy again) HA! Only joking! See what I really wrote. (He shows Tony his pad. It reads "I REALLY like Tony".

Pub! DRINK! [goes inside the pub and starts pounding on the bar] DRINK, DRINK, DRINK! DRINK!

[Ronald happens by the pub, and sees Jack through the window. He runs inside and grabs a bottle of whiskey out of Jack's hands]

RRonald

Don't do it, Father! I won't let you do it! I know it hurts, but believe me, you're going to thank me for--

[cut to an ambulance driving down the street, with its lights flashing and siren sounding]
