This is Frances' sister, Molly Drummond.
Now that's a familiar face.
Jack Jarvis Esquire.
How do you do? Boabby, lager, two sherries.

That was Tilly Macaig.
Nasty wee cow.

You picked me up at the bus station, Tam.
Indeed you will not.
Tam! Of course.
Aye, aye, aye.
Molly's up from Finport for a few days.
Oh, we've a nice friend in Finport.
I was telling her.
Anyway, Molly couldnae make Frances and I's weddin', so this is a sort of getting to know each other.
Aye.
Did I tell ye that Molly played the Carnegie Hall in the Big Apple? Alongside Billy Eckstein and Sarah Vaughan.
Really? That's something, aye.
And do you know who bought her a drink after the show one night? No.
Who? A certain Francis Albert Sinatra.
Really? On the house.
Very kind.
Tam, always a pleasure to watch you work.
Maestro! Maestro! I did it my-y-y wa-a-a-a-ay! Paradise is just next door Where are ye? Sssh.
Listen.
That's Molly live at the Alhambra.

Aye, ye'll never guess.
Bloody Winston's just phoned.
What's he sayin'? Nothin', really.
How's tricks? He was bumming up Finport something chronic.
Did you get his address? No.
No.
I asked him but he was waffling on and I didnae get it.
That's nae bloody use, is it? He said a funny thing, though, Jack.
Oh, aye? He said, "How's the Clansman?" What's funny aboot that? Well, nothin'.
Butthen he said, "How's Boabby?" "How's Boabby?" That IS funny.
They must have arseholes in Finport, surely.
You woulda thought so.
Why would you miss a wanker? Why would you miss a big walking tit wi' legs? A dunderheid, a walloper.
A serf.
A go-get-me.
A dimwit.
A cockbag.
Oh-h.
Do you know what I think? What? I reckon he's desperately lonely.
Go on.
Well, if yer so low that you miss the shitiest thing aboot the place ye've left Boabby.
then ye must really be hating the place ye're in.
Where does that put us? Puts us on the bus tae Finport, Jack.
I'll get the plates and the sauce.
No, don't bother wi' plates! It's awful good of ye tae have me for the few days.
Not a bit of it, Molly.
You're family, for God's sake! I mean I could have booked into a hotel, but so many of them nowadays are so impersonal.
Bloody expensive, too! Oh, aye.
I brought the plates, anyway.
Thanks, Frances.
Right, darlin'.

The last bus doesnae go back tae eleven o'clock.
Right.
What we doin' first when we get doon here? Er, well, we should be cognisant of the fact that we are doon here looking for Winston.
But we should also bear in mind that we are pensioners and we don't get to the coast very often.

So I'm trapped.
Trapped in Finport.

Me missus couldn't stick it.
She's gone back to live with her mother.
