The Grand Seduction Page #6

- Love cricket.

- I live for cricket.

- Really?

- You play?

- Oh yeah. Oh, love that.

- Really?

- Oh, yeah.

We got the final game

of the season here.

Come on! Come on!

No checking, no checking!

Our fathers played.

It's a great tradition

in our small harbour.

That's definitely a... field

setting I've never seen before.

Yeah, I know. I keep tellin'

them, but they don't listen.

Final game, huh?

- Let's go.

- Ah...

- Oh, we gotta go!

- Not possible.

A few overs never hurt no one.

Nah, they hate spectators.

No, we have to, Murray.

Let's go.

A few overs, for me.

- Okay.

- Thank you.

- He wants to watch the match.

- What?

Well, that's it then.

The arse has gone out of her.

No, no. Sound the horn.

I'll think of something.

Come on now, get it

together, for God's sake!

- They're coming.

- What?

They're coming!

They're... they're coming!

They're coming!

Sweet Christ.

Any idea what happens

after we hit the ball?

- No.

- Is there a plan B

you haven't told us about?

No plan B.

The doctor might find it peculiar that

we're dressed up as cricket players,

that we're playing with equipment

that looks like cricket equipment,

but we have absolutely no

idea how to play cricket!

Keep playing!

It's all right. It's all right.

Jumpin' Jesus!

What do we do? What do we do?

I thought you'd all love hockey!

What do we do? What do we do?

We can't stand hockey.

What do we do? What do we do?

What do we do? What do we do? Simon!

What do we do?

Yay!

- Huh?

- Yay!

Oh, there you go. Game's over.

Season's over.

Let's get back to the boat.

Both teams won?

Well, one team won the league,

one team won the match.

You know, it's, uh...

it's basic good sportsmanship.

Oh.

Oh!

Not too close, son.

Sorry. Ah!

- Ah, thank you.

- Yeah!

It's a small harbour, but...

it's got a big heart.

- Come on, they'll deliver the rest.

- Yeah. Thank you.

They'll deliver that up.

That's all right. Come on.

That's the pride of Tickle Head.

- We can't touch her.

- Hmm...

Here we are. Door's open.

- The stuff will be up in a minute.

- All right.

Well, thank you.

Will you be needing any cocaine?

I'm... I'm sorry, what?

We're down with it.

Yeah, it's...

it's not really, uh... okay!

But thanks.

Enjoy our beautiful harbour.

Oh, whoa!

I can hear something.

- I can definitely hear something.

- He's dialling.

- He is!

- Turn it up. Put it on speakers.

Ah!

Jesus! Helen?

- Hello?

- Helen!

Don't touch that knob!

- Henry!

- Okay, okay!

- No, no, no!

- There.

- Helen, can you hear me?

- Hello?

- Hey, it's Paul. Helen...

- Paul! Oh, you wouldn't believe

the number of upset clients of yours

that I had to deal with today.
