Rodney and Del in “Unfinished Business”

Rodney

Cassie seemed so fragile. I wanted to cuddle her and talk to her about it - but I was frightened I might... sort of break her.

Del

No. She's strong, Rodney. Look, it's just a dropped stitch in life's tapestry. That's what Mum used to say.

Rodney

Yeah, I suppose that's about the strength of it when you think about it.

Del

Of course it is. You two'll pick up the bits and pieces and be cruising down that big highway again. Cassandra wants to talk about it, she told Raquel.

Rodney

What do I say to her?

Del

Well, you tell her exactly what you told me - you can leave out the bit about the hairs if you like. You go home and you have a heart-to-heart with her right now. And while you're there, you ask her if she fancies coming round for dinner tonight.

Rodney

Yeah, I'd love to Del, but there is the little matter that I'm stuck in a lift.

Del

Oh yeah. (stands up and opens the control panel) Let's have a look in here.

Rodney

Claustrophobia cleared up quick, didn't it?

Del

Yeah well, got over the worst of it.

Rodney

(stands up) Almost as quick as that flu you had this morning.

Del

Well, these things, they come and go, don't they? Oh look, there's a little switch in here. (presses a switch, and the lift begins moving again) There you go.

Rodney

(angry) You git! You stopped it!

Del

(smiling) It was the only way I could get you talking! You can't run away in a broken lift.

Rodney

You git!

Rodney

(laughing) You! You git!
