Season #2 Episode #12

---

Welcome.

ANDRZEJ disappears inside leaving DARREN alone. Beat. Then

he makes his way over to the fence, places his hand against

it and lets out a sad SIGH.

We move/ crane up into the sky to see, unknown to DARREN,

on the other side, OLLIE doing exactly the same. Neither

aware of the connection with the other.

FADE TO BLACK:

211 INT. TONY’S HOUSE/ LOUNGE/ HALLWAY - EVENING 4 - 21:30 211

OLLIE and TONY sat watching TV. TONY turning off the end of

a movie.

OLLIE:

(Depressed)

I’m sorry - you made me watch that

because...?

TONY:

To make you feel better about

Darren.

OLLIE:

How was watching Independence Day

supposed to do that?!

TONY:

To show you that worse things can

happen.

SFX:
Doorbell. OLLIE gets up.

OLLIE:

Okay, you know aliens haven’t really

invaded Earth don’t you?

TONY:

Don’t you fool yourself... how else do

you explain Bjork?

OLLIE:

(Shaking head to self)

Is it any wonder I’m moving out?

TONY smiles. OLLIE opens the front door. EMMA strides in.

EMMA:

(All playful and happy)

Hello hello. What’s that I hear in

the distance?

OLLIE:

(Sarcastic)

Alien invasion?

EMMA:

No. It’s only the sound of Curry’s

Home Maintenance taking a big step

forwards.

TONY:

Never have I more wished I could

break wind on cue.

EMMA:

(Smiles)

Shush.

(She gives Ollie a kiss)

You’ve got rid of the dead weight,

so now we can properly start moving

this business forward.

OLLIE:

Don’t know how true that is...

EMMA:

It’s very true. Now you can hire

someone better. Someone with your

level of skill...

OLLIE:

That’s true.

TONY:

There’s a four year old next door

with a ‘Bob the Builder’ playset - I

think he’d be a pretty good match

for you.

EMMA:

(Ignoring him)

Ollie. This is a good thing. We’ll

get you an assistant worthy of the

title... because I am running the

interviews.

OLLIE:

What?

EMMA:

I’m brilliant at them, I know what

we’re looking for and I’ve had to do

loads since I started managing the

Koffee Shop.

TONY:

That’s ‘cos all the staff keep

leaving!

EMMA gives TONY a look.

EMMA:

Whatever the reason - I’m holding

interviews tomorrow to find you a

new assistant.

OLLIE:

Are we?

EMMA:

Yes, and I’m going to find you the

best.

OLLIE can’t help but smile. Perked up and happy again. TONY

rolls his eyes.

TONY:

Fair enough. I’ll see you there

then.

OLLIE:

Err, no. I think we can handle it...

TONY:

I’m sure you can. I’ll see you

there.

And TONY goes off to bed.

EMMA:

Is he always that stubborn?
