Brian and Tim in “Battles”

Brian

Can I borrow a tea-bag?

Tim

[sarcastically] Only if you bring it back. [pauses] You can HAVE a tea-bag, Brian, you can't borrow one.

Brian

What are you playing?

Tim

Tomb Raider 3.

Brian

She's drowning.

Tim

Yeah.

Brian

Is that the point of the game?

Tim

Depends what mood you're in really.

Brian

What sort of mood are you in then?

Tim

Well, I got a letter from my ex-girlfriend this morning, 3 months too late, explaining why she dumped me. It was full of 'you'll always be special' and 'I'll always love you' platitudes designed to make me feel better whilst simultaneously appeasing her deep seated sense of guilt for dumping me, running off with a slimy little city boy called Duane and destroying my faith in everything which is good and pure.

Brian

So it didn't really work then.

Tim

No, it made me wanna drown things! [turns around, sees Brian dressed as a painting] You've got paint on you.

Brian

It's a literal tribute to the self reflexivity of Rembrandt.

Tim

Did he like it?

Brian

He's dead.

Tim

Bloody hell, that really backfired.
