Rimmer and Lister in “Better Than Life”

Rimmer

I'm just trying to rehabilitate myself, trying to do the everyday, normal things that most living people take for granted.

Lister

You've got the skutters to help you.

Rimmer

What? Pinky and smeggy Perky? What use are they? It's like giving Blind Pew contact lenses.

Lister

They only do what you tell them to.

Rimmer

Ah, but they don't, do they? You say, "Keep an eye on that lamb", and they do - they sit there for three hours and watch it burn!
