Pramface (2012) s02e03 Episode Script

1 Oh! Wallet.
Daddy, I got the job! What job? Your job, actually.
Maybe you could get a job for your dad, Jamie.
I'm sacking you.
So are you and Laura all, you know? No.
They're not together.
I have to go, I can't be late for college again.
Sorry, is raising your child getting in the way of achieving your I may as well be on my own for all the help you are.
Do you realise how hard this is? You've got it easy.
I'd love to spend all day with her, but I have to go to college and work.
Oh, that must be tough.
All that not listening in lessons and hanging around in a toy shop.
It's a damn site harder than swanning around a massive house with supportive parents and a cleaning lady.
Supportive? Mum's about as supportive as your average evil stepmother and Dad's no use.
What are you talking about? He's here all day.
Yes, he's here all day smashing things and hurting himself, leaving the gas on.
You've still got a cleaner.
She only comes alternate Thursdays.
Oh, well, bloody hoody hoo! Someone call the Social Services, Laura's running out of butlers.
You have no idea, you wouldn't last a day.
I absolutely would and I wouldn't moan about it either.
Fine, OK.
Let's see how you get on when you have a whole day of it.
How about this Friday? OK, fine.
Fine.
Friday it is, then.
Don't wriggle out of it.
I won't! Daddy's going to show Mummy up, isn't he? Because, unlike Mummy, he can multitask.
Failing at two things isn't multitasking.
I won't fail, because I'm a super mum.
The packet says it's stuffed full of raisins, but I can only find six in this whole bowl.
You think you're maybe stagnating at all, Keith? How do you mean? I'm worried your job search may have lost its momentum.
It's tough out there, San, there's hardly any jobs and loads of qualified candidates.
Get creative with your abilities.
What? Lie? Absolutely.
Fake it till you make it.
And I'm going to support you a lot more.
Ah, cheers, San.
Hey, if you just say front us likea hundred quid.
No, not with money, Keith.
Think of me more as a life coach.
So, basically, you're going to be on my case all the time? Yeah.
How is that different from what you usually do? I believe in you, Keith, I believe in your ability to find a job.
Do you? And more to the point, I believe in my ability to make your life a living hell until you do.
Laura thinks looking after a baby's hard work, but she's just not that organised.
I'll look after Emily, quick feed, a little playtime and then, she'll have a nap whilst I do a bit of revision for my re-sit on Monday.
You mean Friday.
No, I mean Monday.
Monday's an INSET Day.
Teacher training.
It's a day off.
Yes! Arrh, shit! It's all on the notice board.
I never look at the notice board.
Where is the notice board? It's fine, I'll get my dad to look after her.
No.
Why not? He has to focus on his job search.
I can do both.
You are a man who gets distracted by raisins, Keith, you're not doing it.
Look, I've got an exam.
It's really important.
Could you take the day off? No, of course I can't.
You're my parents, you're supposed to be helping.
We are helping.
I'm giving you a valuable lesson in self-reliance.
And what's Dad doing? He's demonstrating what happens when you don't get a good education.
See? There's a message in there somewhere.
Just Just talk to Laura, she'll understand.
I doubt that.
You look smart.
Mum's set me up with a work placement at a law firm.
I thought since you're going to blow me out the water as a mother, that I might have a go at being the breadwinner.
So, you'll be gone all day, then? That's not a problem, is it, Supermum? No.
Got it all covered.
All about planning.
Mm.
Good, although I assume you've not mastered lactating yet.
I've expressed enough to last the day, although you will need to pick some nappies.
Do you think you can manage that? No problem.
We've got no problems at all.
Yes.
'So, Keith, do you have a job yet?' No, look it's early days, Sandra.
I'm 'Are you watching telly?' No, I'm literally just about to call another agency.
'I seriously doubt that.
' No, I am, I am.
'Bollocks you are.
' It's just you being on the line that's stopping me from calling them.
'Fine.

Right.
'You'd be amazed how many people think' they can just jump in and do sex chat off the bat.

So you have no skills in the real world.
No, I have lots, but So you're doing a year of what exactly? Well, um Child development is an area that I have been involved in.
And how is that relevant? I thought it might help with family law.

No.
No? I've obviously started you on too high a level.
Beth, get off, it's my turn.
All right, just be careful.
What makes you feel I'm not going to be careful? The fact you were making engine noises as you ran down the last I was doing it for the baby.
Which one? What's the matter, out of gas? She's too quiet.
That's what a sleeping baby sounds like.
Don't disturb her! Yes, that's also what a dead baby sounds like.
I just, I want to check.
No, don't wake her, Mike! Beth, I'm pushing the pram, I'm in charge of her.
Yes, but I'm in charge of you.
Now, stop You've upset her now.
You've upset her.
You did.
You did! Look, this isn't going to work out.
No, I completely agree, I think we should split up.
Yeah, for the sake of the child if nothing else, so Why do you get custody? Cos I'm her closest relative.
What the hell are you talking about? Me and Jamie are like brothers, you're like a weird cousin or family pet.
OK, OK, let's be civil about this.

I was so worried.

'Keith, it's Bobby, from Members Village.
Good news.
' You got a five-star review for your whole Northern family man thing.
Er, yeah, Bobby, I don't think it's going to work out.
Are you kidding? You could be the next Hardguy2000.
Don't think I want to be the next Hardguy2000.
'Look, I tell you what, I'm going to double your rate.
' I guarantee you ã50 an hour.
50 quid an hour? Don't talk daft.
Don't talk daft! I mean, it's fantastic material.
'That's why you get the big bucks.
'Now, you get logged in and start earning.
' Mm Yes, I know, I know, but nasty disposable nappies take a thousand years to degrade.
That's a long time.
Mike, come here.
Oh, no, I wouldn't want to intrude.
She's all yours for another seven minutes.
Seriously, something is wrong, she looks weird, just get over here.
Why's her face like that? That's not right, is it? Maybe she's sick.
What do we do? I don't know, you're the in charge.
We are both in charge! Oh, right, so now she's sick, we're both in charge.
She's stopped.
Why has she stopped? I don't know.
Oh, my God, what if she's cried herself to death? They can't do that, can they do that? I don't know.
You should pick her up.
You pick her up, you're the one who killed her.
You were right here! Yes, but it was on your shift.
Just pick her up and check she's not dead.
Come on, Emily, please, please be alive for your Uncle Mike.
Oh, yeah, good girl.
I think it was just wind.
That's what I said, it was just wind.
You never said it was wind.
Look, it was a fast moving situation, let's not get hung up on who said what.
The main thing is she's OK.
That was horrible.
I thought she was I know, I know, don't even say it.
I'm so not ready for kids.
We got through it though, didn't we? We're taking her home.
Yep.
Oh, oh, no, right, yeah.
That's interesting.
I never though about it from that angle.
'Aaah!' Oh, and you're done.
That's Hello? Hello, caller, how are you? Keith? Oh, hiya, San, how are you doing? Never mind how I'm doing, have you got a job yet? Uh, actually, I do, I am now working in phonesales.

Bye-bye.

Yes, shall I? It's just we thought Yes, no, fine.
Bye.
Well, then, somebody needs Granddad, don't they? And a new nappy too.
OK, there are no nappies left.

My problem, not yours.
And it's well within my capabilities.
What? It is.
I'm done.
You're done? Yeah.
On a paper you failed three weeks ago, you're finishing it with 40 minutes still to go.
Been revising pretty hard.

That is absorbent, yes.
And thatis parcel tape.
Who needs nappies? Yes, and you shall go to the ball.
I can't imagine why you ever doubted me, to be honest.

Beth, where the hell are you? Nothing happened.
I need you to bring Emily to my house.
I don't actually have her.
Where the hell is she? Please don't tell me you left her with Mike.
Of course not, she's with Alan.
Alan? Alan's not safe! Oooh.
There, no more banged heads for you.
Because believe me, Emily, you do not want a banged head.
Ooh! Too pointy.
That's got to go.
Where's my salesman of the month? Aha, yeah.
Oh, well that's a very interesting question, very good question.
I'll probably give them a little, um Yes.
'Shake it all about, slap it on your left buttock 'and then, what I'm going to do 'is I'm going to put it right back in there.
' You get that out of there right now.
Oh, God, Sandra? 'Who's Sandra?' That's my wife.
'Oh, God, that's hot.

Damn right you'll stop.
God almighty, that's like How much? It's 300, I mean it's four if I do evenings.
But, no, you're right, there's no amount of money worth degrading myself like this.
No, no.
I'm going to call them now, have my name taken off the database.
No, let's just think this through.
I mean, it's not like you're having actual sex with them.
No, but I mean, emotionally, it's the same.
It's not exactly the same though, is it? I mean, it's more like you're No, I know, but the things they make me say.
But work is work, and sometimes you just have to grit your teeth and take it.
Sorry.
Look, these are lonely, unhappy people and they need an outlet.
Well, I suppose.
And, in a way, you are providing a valuable social service.
Are you saying I should carry on? I don't see how you have a choice, Keith.
'You are logged in.
' OK, are you ready? Go for it.
Hello, you're through to Keith.

A party tomorrow night? I'll be there.
