Moss and Jen in “Unfinished Business”

[A highly-concussed Moss is amusing himself with an anglepoise lamp. The phone rings]

Hello, Roy speaking.

[on phone] What? Moss? You're still concussed, you need to see the doctor.

Who is this? Roy? Wait, it couldn't be Roy, I'm Roy.

Look, what does IT mean?

What?

IT, what does I.T. mean? Someone's just asked me.

You don't know what it means?

No, I never thought to ask.

This must be Jen!

Yes—

Hello Jen!

Hello!

How may I help you?

Tell me, tell me what IT means.

Absolutely. [pause]

Well?

Very well, thank you. How are you?

Moss, please just stay with me, just for this simple question okay? What—

Jen, I'm just going to put you on speakerphone, all right?

No no no, don't hang up—

[hangs up] Jen, you are now on speakerphone. [pause] Jen? Hello Jen? [phone rings] Jen, can you bear with me one moment? I've got someone trying to get through in the other line. [picks up] Roy speaking.

You just hung up on me.

Jen, can you hold on one second? I've got Jen on the other line.

No! Don't—

[switches lines] Jen, can I call you back? I've just got Jen trying to get through on the other line. [switches lines] Jen, sorry about that. Phew! Chicken in a basket, it has been all ruddy go today! Now how may I help you?

What does IT mean?! You know, computers? Something to do with computers probably?

Computers? That's not really my area. Jen, I'd love to help you but, it's a real pain, I seem to have forgotten absolutely everything I know about computers.

How can you forget everything you know about computers, Moss?

Let me see, maybe it isn't everything. [thinks] No, it's definitely everything.
