Second Hand Wedding Page #4

Synopsis: A small film with a big heart, SECOND HAND WEDDING is a bittersweet dramatic comedy set in the present, in a time when trademe and e-bay threaten the primeval urge for a firsthand crack at the second-hand. Jill keeps the dream alive until she is forced to confront the habits of a lifetime and concede that no bargain is worth her daughter's happiness. Father of the bride, Brian, quips that Cheryl's upcoming wedding will be the first time anyone in the Rose family has given something away - and that's the crux of it.

You sure?

Well you take that note home to your Mother and

tell her to give me a ring.

Thank you.

I s'pose those camp fees are going to come out of

school funds.

Actually the're not Gracie, I'm going to pay for Jody

to go to camp myself,

just like I paid for Martin Hamilton last year and

David Walsh the year before that.

Hello... Is anyone there?

Oh...um...ah...

Ah...Hello...Hi...um my name is Martin Fisk...

and I work for the Bargain Basement.

We specialise in the sale of second-hand goods,

so we...

Cut to the chase son, what are you selling?

Well actually I'm not selling anything, I'm actually

looking to buy.

We like to check on the local area to see if anyone

has anything they'd like to sell.

Anything we'd like to sell?

So...do you...

have anything you'd like to sell?

Nope.

Nothing...really?

Really.

Um...

Well if anything occurs to you,

here's my card.

Give me a call.

There you go.

Thanks, Brian.

Nice car.

Model T, brass radiator.

Oh, I see...

Brian.

Martin.

Um, look if I was to ya know stick my nose in again

to see if you had anything.

Sure.

Don't fancy your chances though.

Right.

Oh, that's a bit cold now, how's yours?

Oh no, I'll just be a minute.

Gracie and I had another run in today.

Oh yeah?

She's a strange one, we used to get along so well

once upon a time,

and it all changed once her Harry died.

-Oh.

-Sad really.

Might have to be a bit careful, could've made it too

hot now.

I don't know what I'd do if I lost you Brian.

Make your own cups of tea for a start.

Making cups of tea are the least of it.

You're my best friend.

You know all of my secrets, and I know all of yours.

Let's go.

How much for that candlestick?

Ah, sorry love, I've just sold it to this lady here.

Looks like I beat the Queen of Sales to the deal.

Gracie, I've got a candlestick just like this at home.

You have?

Yeah, it's for my daughters wedding and I've been

looking everywhere for its match.

Oh, I didn't know Cheryl was getting married.

Oh well she's not getting married, but when she

does I would really love the pair.

Would you sell me that?

So now I have something you want

Don't be spiteful Gracie

I really like this candlestick Jill..

It's like one of a pair my mother used to have, it's

not for sale..

..maybe you'd like to sell me yours?

Over my dead body.

Now who's being spiteful.

Hi!....Are you just packing up?

No, just putting up a new sign, some bugger stole

my last one.

Oh...who steals a Garage Sale sign?

Oh bloody kids I reckon..

..must have pinched it the minute I put it up.

Haven't had a customer all morning.

Not one customer?

Haven't sold a bloody thing.

We'll see about that.
