DouglasWhere is your God?! Where is your God now?! Here, lies a great man. A great man! FAAAAAATTHHHHEEEEEEERRRRR!!!!!
DouglasSpeak, priest!
DouglasMeet me at the station!
Douglas ReynholmI like you, Jen. You don't ask questions. A lot of people would be confused as to why I invited them up here then asked them to leave, not you. A person's got to have a lot of backbone to allow herself to be ordered around like that. You've got spunk and balls, and I like that in a woman.
DouglasHell's horses!
Douglas[being shocked by his anti-harrassment device while reading a magazine] But I'm not aroused, it's only cars! God damn these electric sex pants!
DouglasAlright, I was young once. But if this got out it could deeply damage Reynholm Industries ability to make that product that we make.
DouglasOh, not these idiots!
Mr Reynholm, the men in the IT department are my friends, they're not idiots. [Moss and Roy walk in without their trousers]
Douglas ReynholmI can't seem to get it open.
You want me to open it. That's why you called me all the way up here, to open your laptop?
DouglasI would be beholden to you.
DouglasYou there, computer man. Fix my pants!
Beg your pardon?
DouglasPull down my trousers and do your job!
DouglasApril, these past few days have been like a dream. Usually, I can't wait to get away from a woman once I've ejaculated, but with you... I don't know, I feel alive. April, I love you.
What?
DouglasThat's right, I totally love the bloody arse off you.
Oh, Douglas! I love you too!
DouglasOh, poppet... to think when we met, you were so worried that you came from Iran.
...what?
DouglasWhen we met, as if I'd be worried about something like that! I don't care where you're from; Iran, France, doesn't bother me. I'm very modern
I'm not from Iran!
DouglasWell, you said something along those lines.
No, not Iran, a man! I said I used to be a man!
DouglasYou used to be a man...?
Yes!
[Douglas grips April very tightly]
DouglasOH GOD...
Mr Reynholm, I don't need to remind you of the report that denounced Reynholm Industries as an institutionally sexist organisation.
Douglas ReynholmNow, you hold on a minute, sugar-tits!
[Douglas is presenting an advert for "Spaceology"]
DouglasSpace: what is it? The simple answer is, we don't know. Or at least we didn't know until now. Hello, I'm Douglas Reynholm, and I'm not a scientist, but I do have a better understanding of what space is than any scientist living today. Where did I gain these insights? From this man, the founder of Spaceology. Beth Gaga Shaggy — no relation to Lady Gaga or Shaggy — is the founder of Spaceology, a religion, not a cult. In other words, when it comes to space, he's the man with his head screwed on tight. This is what he told me when I met him on holiday two weeks ago.
Space is invisible mind dust, and stars are but wishes.
DouglasI mean, think about that! That means every star you can see in the night sky is a wish that has come true. And they've come true because of something he calls Spacestar Ordering. Spacestar Ordering is based on the twin scientific principles of star maths and wishy thinking. If you'd like to know more, there are thousands of Spaceology centres all over the UK. If that doesn't convince you, well, then, maybe you just don't deserve to get what you want.
[Camera changes to Roy and Douglas watching the advert on Roy's computer]
DouglasWow. You're a genius, Ray! Love the special effects! How did you do that thing where I'm spinning around?
Well, in that bit, you're actually spinning around.
DouglasTwo hundred and twelve million quid? You can't be serious!
Oh, we're quite serious, Mr Reynholm.
DouglasBut that's enough to bring Reynholm Industries to its knees! Bloody blast, this is up my arse!
That is the amount, it is not up for negotiation.
DouglasBalls from hell, you shit-twins!
Calm down, Mr. Reynholm.
DouglasBollocks to be telling me to calm down, my old chap. She wants 220 titty million quid and you tell me to calm down! You're fired.
Mr Reynholm, are you ready to start your cross-examination of Mrs. Reynholm?
DouglasI am, your honour, but rest assured, it will a normal examination. I am not in any way cross. [To Victoria Reynholm] You are Victoria Reynholm, are you not?
Mr. Reynholm, we have already established that. Might I suggest that you try less to do an impression of a lawyer you once saw on television and make your case as simply as you possibly can.
DouglasWise words, my learned lud.
