Really Sorry.

I Didn't Mean It.

Would You Give Me One

More Chance, Please?

Please.

[ Mixed Whispers ]

Various:

Go On. Get It. Get The Remote Control.

He's Asleep.

[ Growl ]

[ Gasping ]

[ ]

You'll Be Able

To Munch Through Acres Of Grass

With Those New

Gnashers, Mary.

[ Chuckling ]

[ Sobbing ]

That Was

A Horrible Thing To Say.

Horrible, But True!

Bloody Dentist!

I'd Like To Gnash

His Gnashers.

I'll Have Tea.

A Little Milk,

No Sugar.

Get It Yourself.

I Said, No Sugar

And A Little Milk.

[ Gasp ]

God. Jeez.

What Are You

Doing In Here?

Your Nerves Are

In A Bad Way.

You Shouldn't

Be In Here,

And You Certainly

Shouldn't Be Smoking.

Your Concern

For My Health Is So Touching.

[ ]

Hot Date, Have We?

[ Chortle ]

I Suppose

"Honk-Honk"

Is Zooming Up

Late As Usual.

We're Supposed To

Keep IThem/I Waiting,

Not The Other

Way 'round.

[ ]

Honk-Honk.

Ellie:
[ Distant ]

Hello! Dan?

Can You Hear Me?

Sh*t!

[ Knocking ]

[ Muffled ]

Do You Want To Come In?

Sh*t...

Is He Always Late?

He's Just Been Working

Really Hard Lately.

[ Cellphone Chiming ]

[ Sigh ]

He's Not

Coming, Is He?

No, He's Busy.

Well, Do You Want

To See A Film?

We Could Get

A Pizza...

No, I Don't.

It's Saturday Night,

I Want To Go Out.

Look, Why

Don't We Go?

[ Laugh ]

Are You Mad?

Kate, It's Been

Five Years Now Since David Died.

How Do You Expect

To Meet Anyone

If You Don't

Get Out There?

Ellie:

When Did Donald's Wife Die?

Um... Couple

Of Years Ago.

I Bet He Never

Acted The Arsehole

When She Was Around.

Why?

I Was Just Wondering.

It's Funny How

Differently

People Respond To Loss.

What Did She Die Of?

Cancer.

Same As David.

He Doesn't Like

To Talk About It.

I Wonder

What's Worse...

Dying, Or Being

The One Watching,

Not Being Able

To Do Anything.

Either Way,

It's Shite, Ellie.

F*** It. I'm Going To

Go And Surprise Him.

Some Men Don't Like

To Be Surprised.

He's Not Like That.

He'll Love It!

Close The Bloody Door.

[ Steps Creaking ]

Man:

As You Know, The Department Needs To Ensure

Regulations Are Met.

Kate:

Yes, I'll See What I Can Get Done

With That Application

In The Meantime.

And, Uh, I Need It

On My Desk A.S.A.P.

Yes, Thank You

Very Much, Mr. Evans.

Elle, Are You

All Right?

You Look A Bit...

Yeah, I'm Fine.

How Was Dan?

Great.

So, He Didn't Mind

Being Surprised, Then?

No. Why

Should He?

Who Was That?

Mmm. Department

Of Health.

Mr. Evans.

He Likes Dropping

In Unannounced Every So Often,

To See If He'll

Catch Us Torturing The Residents.

Oh! Look,

Missed A Bit.
