Listen, Jeremy, you don't seem to understand. Nothing you want is ever going to happen. That's the real world. Your hair isn't red, people don't walk around on stilts. Maybe somewhere you can earn a living sitting around, drinking margaritas through a curly plastic straw, but in this world, you've got to turn up, log on and grind out.
J Jez
But, yeah, if you get in early ...
[Interviewing Jeremy, for a filing position]
B Barbara
...now, do you have any experience in this field?
J Jez
Eh, I've done quite a lot actually, I mean not formal filing, but you know, alphabetabecising the videos, doing the spices, I suppose what I'd want to do is build on that experience in a professional... zone, SPHERE. I meant, sphere. (God, that sounded amazing, don't accidentally get the bugger!)
B Barbara
You're doing great...
[she ticks "Poor" in the "Experience", "Knowledge" and "Performance level" boxes on her sheet]
J Jez
You're pissing on my bonfire!
J Jez
That's because you keep pissing on it!
J Jez
I just came here to tell you we've been invited to a very wicked party.
Do I look like the kind of man who goes to wicked parties?
J Jez
[Eating chicken wings ] (This should be in the bag. Why isn't this in the bag? She looks like she hates me.) [Toni looks on in disgust ]
J Jez
What? It's eat as much as you can.
No, it's eat as much as you'd like. There's no competitive element involved.
J Jez
At 3.99, I think I know who's winning.
J Jez
The bad thing. That was the bad thing.
[Cut to shot of Super Hans performing oral sex on Jeremy the previous night]
J Jez
Look mate, I'm next door. I heard you. Your... noise. Last night.
Oh, that. That was nothing. That was... press-ups.
J Jez
Yep, well, you certainly seemed to enjoy the last few... a lot.
J Jez
And she's paying back... in fear dollars!
J Jez
There's only so much happiness in the world and they're hoarding it all!
That's not how happiness works! (It completely is.)
This place is amazing, Gwyn. How can you afford it all?
G Gwyn
Well I guess I've just been very lucky. Money's an energy and lots of it has always flowed towards me. Particularly after my parents died.
[Jez approaches an acquaintance from school ]
G Gog
Jeremy! What are you doing here?
J Jez
Wouldn't you like to know, you big prick!
[Jez twists Gog's nipple ]
J Jez
Remember that time we made you wank off Percy's dog for a fiver?
J Jez
Is that? ... Oh my god it is! It's Gog!
J Jez
It's Gog! In school, if you had to sneeze, you'd run up and do it in his face.
G Gog
Hey, you know what I fancy right now? A kebab. Will you go down and get me a kebab?
J Jez
[pause] You want me to...
G Gog
[laughing ] No-o! Why, were you gonna go and get me one?
[Everyone laughs at Jez]
G Gog
I can't believe you were gonna go and get me a kebab!
G Gog
[Stops laughing] Well, I want one now.
G Gog
[laughs again] No-o! I'm shitting you, Jez! Jesus!
J Jez
I thought you did do Ancient History.
I did business studies Jeremy. For three years. And I talked to you about it daily.
J Jez
(I could tell him that's all ancient history now. He probably wouldn't like that joke.)
J Jez
Oh well, that's all ancient history now!
[Mark looks unimpressed ]
J Jez
Stealing things just makes everything very cheap. Plus, you know how I feel about capitalism.
