Bank manager quotes from Fleabag

Bank manager

They keep asking me, "What do you want from this workshop? What do you want?" I'm not telling them what I want. I want to move back home. I want to hug my wife, protect my children, protect my daughter. I want to move on. I want to apologise, to everyone. Want to go to the theatre. I want to take clean cups out of the dishwasher and put them in the cupboard at home and the next morning, I want to watch my wife drink from them. And I want to make her feel good. I want to make her orgasm again. And again. Truly.

Fleabag

I just want to cry. All the time.

Bank manager

Cafes are a very difficult business. You've certainly made this one very unique.

Fleabag

I also fucked it into liquidation.

Bank manager

OK.

Fleabag

And I fucked up my family.

Bank manager

Did you?

Fleabag

And I fucked my friend by fucking her boyfriend.

Bank manager

Right...

Fleabag

And sometimes I wish I didn't even know that fucking existed. And I know that my body, as it is now, really is the only thing I have left, and when that gets old and unfuckable I may as well just kill it. And somehow there isn't anything worse than someone who doesn't want to fuck me. I fuck everything. Except for when I was in your office, I really wasn't trying to have sex. You know, either everyone feels like this a little bit, and they're just not talking about it, or I'm completely fucking alone. Which isn't fucking funny.

Bank manager

People make mistakes.

Fleabag

It's why they put rubbers on the ends of pencils.

Bank manager

Is that a joke?

Fleabag

I don't know.
