Season #1 Episode #2

And from this to total calm. Almost silence. Only the sound

of the sea. Sun bouncing off the surface of the water.

Tracy and Viv are swimming in the amazing turquoise ocean.

Viv looks back at the beach, takes in where she is

VIV:

(treading water)

Trace

TRACY:

What?

VIV:

I love being here with you

TRACY:

(smiles)

I love being here with you

Hold on them, best of friends and allowing themselves a

moment where they acknowledge it - both treading water

TRACY (CONT'D)

Are you trying to do a wee

VIV:

Yeh

TRACY:

So am I

They howl with laughter

VIV:

(splashes her)

Dirty cow

TRACY:

(splashes back)

You dirty cow

15 EXT. BEACH - DAY 11 - 09.30 15

Viv and Tracy lie on the beach like sun goddesses. When

suddenly a DARK SHADOW passes over. They look up.

It’s Bale and Ronaldo.

BALE:

(of their bodies)

Thin girls. Is there a food

shortage in England?

TRACY:

Why, do you like big girls?

VIV:

Something to get your hands on?

This is all played fun, almost flirty. The guys perch down

on their sun loungers. But then...

RONALDO:

(serious faced)

You met men last night.

Tracy and Viv share a look, how the f*** do they know.

RONALDO (CONT'D)

Who were they?

TRACY:

What’s it to you?

BALE:

You had sex with them?

VIV TRACY:

No! (angry, bemused)

You’d best not tell Jimmy

that -

Ronaldo turns on her, furious.

RONALDO:

English girls can’t drink. You get

pissed, say stupid things.

TRACY:

We told them nothing.

RONALDO:

Good.

The atmosphere is suddenly very hostile, completely

incongruous with the relaxed surroundings.

RONALDO (CONT'D)

The hotel manager knows us. He’ll

be watching you

VIV:

What’s that supposed to mean?

RONALDO:

You’re here for a purpose. Yes.

Don’t forget it

And with that, they get up and head away. Hold the look

between Viv and Tracy...

16 INT/EXT. JS MOTORS - DAY 11 - 15.40 16

Rain pours down. The forecourt is a sorry looking sight as

no one wants to view cars in this weather.

Fat Jason and Paracetamol Pete have brews and are nattering

together under a canopy (Pete inserts a nasal spray halfway

through his conversation - always ill). Marty is alone,

sitting to one side sheltering in a hatchback.

Rick and Jez are busy working on cars in the background.

Ziggy, the young mechanic, passes, carrying supplies to the

workshop, he clocks Marty alone... slows his pace.

ZIGGY:

Wanna see a picture of me bird?

He pulls his phone from his pocket, hands it to Marty. His

phone wallpaper has a PARROT on it.
