S1 E15Unfinished Business

I've got Aunt Irma visiting.

Oh, do you not like Aunt Irma? I've got an aunt like that. [Roy and Moss look confused]

It's my term for my time of the month.

[understanding] Ohhhh.

What time of the month? The weekend?

No.

Does Aunt Irma visit on the weekend?

Moss!

You know, it's "high tide".

But we're not on the coast.

Moss!

I'm "closed for maintenance"!

Closed for maintenance?

Moss!

I've fallen to the communists!

Well, they do have some compelling arguments.

[frustrated] Carrie, Moss! First scene in Carrie!

[finally understanding] Oh. Okay. [walks out of the room; embarrassed.]

Okay. Moss, what did you have for breakfast this morning?

Smartie cereal.

Oh my God, I didn't even know Smarties made a cereal.

They don't. It's just Smarties in a bowl with milk.

I am a man, he's a man, we're men!

Okay, tell me how you're feeling.

[softly] I feel delicate... and annoyed, and... I think I'm ugly! [crying]

NRNews Reporter

(on 'Aunt Irma' riots) The rioting has been going on all night. The men involved are young, angry, and almost all of them work with computers. In Tokyo, two games designers went on a rampage in a shopping centre and frightened a dog. In Hamburg, a group of software developers shouted at a bus.

[Jen, Roy, and Moss are looking at a poster for Gay: A Gay Musical]

"A gay musical", called Gay. That's quite gay. "Gay musical?" Aren't all musicals gay? This must be, like, the gayest musical ever made.

It got some pretty good reviews. [Pan to "The Audience Applauded" - The Evening Informer; "More Than Tolerable" - The London Echo"; "Not As Long As Some Musicals" - The Banner.]

[reads from the poster] "A story of a young man trying to find his sexuality in the uncaring Thatcher years. Warning: includes scenes of graphic homoeroticism."

Oh no! It's set in the 80s!

Graphic homoeroticism? [turning to Moss] Does that mean they're going to get them out?

You're not comfortable with your sexuality?

Oh, I'm very comfortable with my sexuality, I just don't want to be slapped in the face with their sexuality.

[Jen is standing in the lobby at the theatre. Three people in wheelchairs come in. Roy is one of them. He is being pushed by the Theatre Manager]

TMTheatre Manager

He's had quite an evening. Someone stole his wheelchair.

[shocked] Did you see who it was?

Red-bearded man.

Uh-huh... How long have you been disabled?

Ten years?

Ten years, and how did it happen? If that's not a rude question.

...Acid.

What are the chances?

100 to one.

TMTheatre Manager

What happened?

[meekly] I'm disabled.

TMTheatre Manager

How?

How what?

TMTheatre Manager

Yeah, how are you disabled?

Uhh, Leg disabled.

TMTheatre Manager

Do you have a wheelchair?

...Yes.

TMTheatre Manager

Well, where is it?

...Stolen.

TMTheatre Manager

How did they get in?

[breaks down] I don't know...

JJerome

[sees group of disabled men] What...? Oh, I get it. Very funny, you Irish! [laughs; mockingly] "Oh, I'm a bit tired. Can I have a wheelchair too?" Ha ha, HILARIOUS! "Oh, me legs don't work! Help, help! I need a wheelchair!" [goes over to a disable man; tries to pull him off] Come on, come on, get up. Come on, stop messing around! That a go. [tips wheelchair over; disable man falls off]

DRDenholm Reynholm

When I started Reynholm Industries, I had just two things in my possession: a dream and six million pounds. Today I have a business empire the like of which the world has never seen the like of which. I hope it doesn't sound arrogant when I say that I am the greatest man in the world!

Unbelievable! Some brainiac disabled his firewall, meaning all the computers on floor Seven are teeming with viruses, plus I've just had to walk all the way down the motherfudging stairs, because the lifts are broken again!

[Jen comes out of her office, visibly shocked.]

[stunned] Oh my God.

What?

Oh my God.

What is it?

Denholm's dead!

[suddenly remembering] Oh yes—and Denholm's dead!

DPDerek Pippen

[talking about Denholm's funeral] You do know we're burying a great man today!

[shocked] Did someone else die?

There's Denholm's wife...

I never know what to say to people at funerals.

Me too. I'm terrible.

Just say you're sorry and move on. [To Denholm's wife] He'll be in our prayers.

[to Denholm's wife] I'm sorry for your loss. Move on.

I'm sorry for your loss.

RMrs. Reynholm

Thank you.

It's not like you've lost a pen, is it? It's so much worse. Would you like a pen? I have a spare one.

RMrs. Reynholm

No thank you.

Please take it.

RMrs. Reynholm

Why are you giving it to me?

I don't know. [hands her the pen] Swings and roundabouts.

Where is your God?! Where is your God now?! Here, lies a great man. A great man! FAAAAAATTHHHHEEEEEEERRRRR!!!!!
