TV show quotes
[Thomas' mother is scolding him. He finds it difficult to conceal his rage]
What do you know about bringing children up? I have given everything to you, all my life. And now you want to tell me what to do? You have no respect! If your father was here, he would beat you—
[snaps] My father is dead! And he's of no use to us! [His mother's eyes widen in shock, and he storms out]
[Thomas catches Cook flushing drugs down the toilet and suspects that he's hiding something]
What are you doing, Cook?
[irritated] What is this? The dump police?
[approaching Cook] I'm thinking somebody gave that girl drugs.
[to Thomas] Yep. So?
[to Cook] It was you. I'll tell them.
[annoyed and irritated] Yeah? Fuck you, Thomas. Tell them what you want, mate. Never met the girl.
[Cook walks away and pushes Thomas aside]
[enquiringly] How's your girlfriend, Cook?
[to Thomas] I don't have a girlfriend, Thomas. How's yours? Still got that dirty little walt on her ass?
[Thomas gets provoked and gets into a physical fight with Cook]
[to Thomas, while fighting] Come on then Thomas, come on at me! Fucking never finished have we?
[Freddie walks into the bathroom and the two stop fighting with each other]
Cook!
[Cook and Thomas stare intensely at each other]
[to Cook] Cops called your name, mate.
[Cook walks out of the bathroom. As soon as Cook leaves, Freddie gives Thomas a disapproving look.]
[Thomas gets expelled because of his perceived involvement in Sophia's death]
Involvement in a girl's death brings the college into disrepute. [smugly] And for that reason, I am going to expel you.
[Thomas attempts to reconcile with Pandora, but she has been advised by Effy to not take him back.]
Can I come in?
[angrily] No, you fucker.
[enquiringly] Pandora... We started again before. Can we do it now?
[glumly] I don't think so. You don't trust me before anything more, Thomas. And that fucks it.
[protestingly] But I love you, Pandora.
I know you do, Thomas. [shuts the door on Thomas]
[Pandora takes a deep breath and walks towards the living room of her house]
[to Effy] I told him that like you said.
Okay. [offers a pop tart to Effy] Eat a pop tart.
Well done. He needs to think about what he did.
You told Graham I was straight?
Well, he's known you since you were a little girl!
He's gay as a window!
He's an adult, he's earned the right to be gay. You're too young to know what you are.
I know, mum.
You think you know. Is there any specific reason why you've been crying? Maybe Naomi?
No, we're fine.
You should go travelling to find yourself. Wouldn't she just get in the way?
She's my fucking girlfriend! You've got nothing to do with this.
All right. All right. Wouldn't you like to set out on an adventure?
No!!! Get used to it!
So what if I was to give you a thousand pounds, would that change things?
What? Now you're bribing me!
Oh, Emily, your mind! I'm just trying to help you! Naomi's not right for you. And there's something about her, something I don't quite like, I'm just telling you.
Shove it up your tits. [leaves]
How was your summer?
Not bad. Got chlamydia.
Wow! Exotic!
That's what I said. But then I realised Cook had it as well, and it didn't feel quite so special.
I bet it liked you more.
[Sophia] she stalked me!
You're very stalkable.
[voiceover, as Emily reads her comic] I can't stop crying. I've tried to stop thinking, but it doesn't work. You don't expect stuff to happen; you can't control it, you can't control anything. So I'm at this stupid open day and everyone's snotty and rude and then I see someone. [Sophia meets Naomi: "I recognise someone. I tap her shoulder; she turns and smiles"] I never even spoke to her at Roundview, but it didn't seem to matter because everything got really fun. [Naomi and Sophia on the train: "I had to tell a lie to come here."; "So did I."] And by the time we were on our way home, we were telling secrets, and I wanted to move my hand, I wanted to move it so much. [Sophia holds Naomi's hand] And then she moved hers. I wish I told Naomi how easy it is for me to love someone. We're all lonely and all we want is for someone to... [Naomi and Sophia at Naomi's house: "I feel trapped."; "I know what you mean."] you know, pay attention and tell us we're beautiful... and cute... and say that we want to... [Sophia cries over an animated panel of her and Naomi kissing; Emily finishes reading and cries].
[crying] I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!
[Sophia's brother takes the comic from Emily and drops it from a high-rise building, and walks past Naomi angrily.]
You've ruined it. You don't want anyone to care. [Stands up and looks at the road below] I could be dead in a second. Everything's... so... fragile. Didn't you realise that? We were special. [Emily steps down from the ledge and walks past Naomi]
I was scared!
You're always scared.
[Cook is talking with his lawyer]
Not guilty.
James, you did punch the fuck out of Shanky. In front of eighty-three witnesses.
Will you go to prison?
I might.
But if you say sorry won't they let you go?
I'm not sorry.
Why?
Never say sorry, kid.
Why?
Cause you're not a pussy, are you?
No.
We don't play their game, do we? We don't play anyone's game.
Except for Rock Band. We can play that.
You know, love's thoroughly overrated, Panda. I've never even had a girlfriend, look how happy I am... in between minor psychological breakdowns. Sure, all the serotonin, and endorphins, and sex, et cetera, feel good, but really, love? An illusion. It can't last Nope.
[Cook gets expelled from college]
Ah. Finally. The famous Mr Cook. Hi, Dave. Dave Blood. We have met before, in fact, but take my card. [puts his card into Cook's pocket] We should powwow.
What?
I can see that this college has failed you, Mr Cook. And I am deeply sorry. But that is ten years of willy-nilly policy and red tape nonsensery for you. So unfortunately, since you’ve been implicated, as it were, by the law, you have been automatically… expelled. Expunged. Excommunicated. And I’m going to have to ask you to… scoot off.
I hate KFC.
What?
Elliot Evans' parents got divorced, and his dad spent every night in KFC. Then he met this woman, she had a huge problem. So he tried to help her, and her friend got really angry, and he ended up with only one kneecap. And now, his mum's doing pornos, and his dad's a junkie, and he never sees them! Except on the internet, and then he has to pay for it. I mean, how unfair is that!?
[Emily's kissing another girl in front of Naomi]
What the fuck are you doing, Emily? Emily, fucking stop this shit now!
[Emily pushes Naomi in the pool]
Naomi darling, am I making you nice and wet?
Fuck you! [Gets up from the pool] This is a fucking pantomime!
[Emily gets up and pushes Naomi]
Fuck you right back!
Ems, stop it.
Stay out of this.
What? Want to fuck her? Is that it?
Maybe I do. So what?
That's enough! What's this all about?
It's none of your business.
I fucked the dead girl. I fucked Sophia and gave her the drugs, and now she's punishing me for it.
I knew you'd screw her up!
Hey! Good news everyone! I found us a caravan. What have I missed?
Why don't you all just fuck off? Look at you. Pretending to be happy families, pretending to love each other.
Don't you dare speak to me like that!
Get off your high horse!
I can't... I can't be here any more.
Bit melodramatic. Remind you of anyone?
[Katie slaps Emily]
Stop it.
Uhhh!
Come on son.
[Emily is crying]
Em...
[Katie is bathing, when Thomas comes in to relieve himself, locking the door]
Oh...
Merde! Sorry! [goes to unlock the door, but breaks the lock handle] Ah! Super merde! JJ! Emily! [knocks] JJ! I think they've all gone out.
Bollocks. You gonna stand there until they get back?
Yes, yes, I'll get you a towel and... [sees the towel rack is empty] Putain!
