A Date for Mad Mary Page #4

- Like a whore.

I believe you're lookin' to find someone

to go to a wedding?

Me and Char have known

our fair share of hard times.

When Char's gran died, I was there for her.

When stuff was goin' on for me,

she was always there for me, too.

As they say, Hard times will always reveal

true friendship.

And ours is very true.

Ours is the most true.

Ours is...

Hi, this is Charlene.

Leave a message.

Hey, it's me.

So I was readin' this really interesting

thing in the paper earlier.

It said that the best night ever

to go out with Mary is a Tuesday night?

So...

Call me back.

So, do you do

anything like that yourself?

- What?

- Like sport or drama?

No.

Any interests at all?

No.

This is the first one of these where

I've actually had a good feelin'.

You just seem to be really sound

and funny.

And you're proper hot.

The fact that you need someone

to bring to your friend's weddin'

and I need someone

to bring to my brother's weddin'...

...it could be perfect.

Oh, f*** me.

You're my boyfriend, your name is John.

I've got this.

Hello!

Hi, what are you doin' here?

Oh, I was passing on me way from work.

And who do we have here?

Charlene, this is John Carter,

the chap I was tellin' you about.

John, this is Charlene.

I believe I'm comin' to your weddin'.

Wow. He's cute.

Thanks.

Well, it was good to see ya, Char.

He's f***in' gorgeous, Mary.

Yep.

Can I ask you somethin'?

This is gonna seem really weird

cos I just met you but...

would you like to be a groomsman?

It's just Declan, me fella, he doesn't

really have any good-lookin' friends,

and it'd be deadly to have at least one

good-lookin' chap in the photographs.

Er... Sure.

You did well, hun.

I sure did.

By the way, the hen's is on Friday.

The theme is Mamma Mia!

What's that mean?

Ya come dressed as a

character from the film.

What, like Meryl Streep?

No. Leona got Meryl Streep.

We put all the names in a hat

And you got Stellan Skarsgrd.

OK? See ya Friday.

Looks like you're coming to a weddin'.

Bring it on, chicken.

You're gonna have to dial down the camp.

Er, I'm not camp.

Eh, yeah, ya are.

What?

I'm sorry. I'll... I'll go to

your brother's weddin'.

Aw, f*** off!

The things you need

to know about Charlene.

Me and her share the

best memories together.

Like the weekends.

When the two of us would go clubbin'.

This is when we'd really

get to let our hair down.

Nights that felt like they

went on forever and ever.

Like me and her were the only

two people left in the world.

- Hey.

- I might head on.

OK, then.

Oh, you text me John Carter's

number in the morning?

- Who?

- Your boyfriend.

Oh.

- What?

- Nothin'. I was just...
