No evidence of him getting oui.

Hey, Cliff.
What you been up to?
Just thinking, mainly.
Listen, Jim, I hope you don't mind,
but I think me and Jackie are dating.
No. Why would I mind? It's fine.
I don't know.
I always thought you liked her.
No, you've got that wrong.
Er, I'm into older chicks now.
Oh nice.
Also, could I have my Nintendo back'?
No. My mum chucked it out.
(Horn beeps)
- Right.
- Cliff.
Get in.

'Who's there?'
- Quiet tonight.
- Shh. Yes.
Is it'!
Do you have any new movies?
I've just... I've seen this one loads.
- You know, it's probably the rats.
- What is?
The lack of customers.
They're listening.
Who?
The people in the walls.
They're listening.
They don't know that I know but I do.
I know they're coming for us.
Trust no one.
Stay away from tap water.
Leave now.
Don't come back.
How's school?
Great.
I won the school race.
How's Michelle'!
No word.
She may be dead.
It's probably best we move on.
Where did Michael come'!
- Why?
- I saw his mum today
so I invited him around for supper.
Without asking me?
Maybe I don't want him around here.
Why not?
(Knock at door)
- Hi, Michael.
- Hiya.
- Long time no see.
- Yeah, I know.
- Come on in.
- Er, I can't, sorry.
I just came to say thanks
for inviting me around,
but I've made plans.
Oh, that's a shame.
Well, Jim's here.
Jim, why don't we save your supper
and you can warm it up
when you get back later?
You make me so wet.
Hop out a second, Jimbo.
Sure.
(Engine starts)
(Leon) F*** off!
Domino, Domino
You're an angel
that heaven has sent me
