Pandora Moon quotes from Skins

Pandora

[stoned] Hi mum. No, I'm fine, I'm super duper fine! Yep, I'm with my friends and they're like so fucking amazing. Well, I guess I'm looking at Tony's cock, but he can't tell. See ya! [Tony looks more uncomfortable as she keeps on staring]

Pandora

  Relationships just can't stay the same, can they? Can't always be lovely and lush and not full of weird silences all the time. People can't always be perfect, 'cause that's not real, is it? It's not real 'cause things change. Don't they?

Effy

[to herself, understanding] You hate her.

Pandora

Who do I hate?

Effy

[beat] I'll let you know.

Pandora

[running off] Come on! We can do brownies and then lick our bowls out.

Do you think she knows she sounds filthy half the time?

Effy

Sometimes I wonder.

Effy! We meet at last!

Effy

Yes.

Pandora's told me so much about you.

Pandora

You know, Eff, your missionary work.

Effy

Yes, I try to do as much of that as I can.

That's good. There're so many bad things in life: boys, and drugs, guns, alcohol...boys. Evil things. I'm glad Pandora's found a channel she can pool her energy into.

Effy

Well, yes, all the seamen like her.

[beat, stops smiling] Seamen?

Effy

Yes, loads of seamen. Some of them are homeless as well. We'd all love to see Pandora get her own missionary position.

[uncertain] Right...Sounds lovely.

Effy

Any good?

Pandora

I dunno what you mean.

Effy

I mean he's a sensational fuck, yeah.

Pandora

There's a whamma lot of things you don't know about me, Eff. Just because I'm useless don't mean that I'm nothing.

Effy

We're friends because you don't surf and turf my men. You said that.

Pandora

He's not yours, Eff. He never belonged to anyone.

Effy

Shut up.

Pandora

That's why you don't really want him.

Effy

Shut up!

Pandora

He's not the one you want, Eff! See, I know that because I'm your friend but you don't make enough effort, Eff! I'm just there to laugh at. You don't know me. My life, my family, my mum. Why don't you know anything about my mum? I know everything about yours.

Effy

...You're right. I don't know anything about your mum.

Pandora

Sorry, okay.

Effy

Yeah. [pause] Oh Jesus.

Pandora

What?

Effy

Be careful what you wish for, Pandora.

Pandora

Why?

Thomas

Panda! Panda! [Pandora turns around] Panda! Panda, look I'm here. Panda, it's me. Are you not glad to see me? Mother said I could come back. What's wrong?

Effy

Don't be a twat, Thomas, give your girlfriend a hug.

Pandora

[crying] I missed you, I missed you too much.

  You're all such whizzer chums, aren't you? Ain't that right, Eff? Ain't that right, Panda? Panda's been worried lately Eff, says you dont't see each other as much as you used to. That right, Panda, yeah? I said to her, "Cupcake, maybe if you didn't spend as much time with my cock in your mouth..."—

Pandora

  Shut up, shut up, shut up! [grabs Thomas' arm] Thomas, let's go.

Thomas

  Stop. It's fine. I know.

Effy

  Wait. It was one time, right? Your party? [desperately] It was only once, right?! [Pandora cries] I need to sit down.

  [to Thomas] Umm... sorry slugger. I don't think you heard. Me fucked your girlfriend, like, multiple times.

Thomas

  What do you want me to say?

  I don't want you to say anything. Hit me. C'mon, c'mon, hit me!

Thomas

  You're just a sad little boy. [turns away]

Pandora

  Thomas, please. I stopped it. I love you. Just give me a chance—

Thomas

  [yelling] No! I have given you chances and you have not taken them! Time and time again you have lied to me! It's too late now. [quieter] I fell in love with this girl... she was good, she was honest and doughnuts... Now she's gone, and this new one... I don't like her... she makes my heart hurt.[leaves]

Who is that?

Pandora

Um, hello Kosoke.

[to Thomas] You know my rules.

Pandora

It was too late to get home. We're not gonna, you know, do anything.

Like what?

Pandora

You know...having sex. We're not gonna have sex. We won't do that.

No?

Pandora

Yeah, I mean, uh, well, we have done stuff, um, possibly, possibly, not those, or, well, maybe you could say those.

Thomas

Okay, maybe you should stop talking now.

Pandora

Tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God. [under her breath] Bloody Hell.

Someone tell me please where to find a virgin in this country.

Pandora

[long silence] Uh, well, it's difficult.

Thomas

Is that the answer for everything? To go and get pissed?

Pandora

No, Häagen-Dazs is the answer for everything.

Thomas

Can I come in?

Pandora

[angrily] No, you fucker.

Thomas

[enquiringly] Pandora... We started again before. Can we do it now?

Pandora

[glumly] I don't think so. You don't trust me before anything more, Thomas. And that fucks it.

Thomas

[protestingly] But I love you, Pandora.

Pandora

I know you do, Thomas. [shuts the door on Thomas]

Pandora

[to Effy] I told him that like you said.

Effy

Okay. [offers a pop tart to Effy] Eat a pop tart.

Effy

Well done. He needs to think about what he did.
