Offspring (2010) s07e05 Episode Script

Season 7, Episode 5

1 I'm doing Martin's job as well as my own.
I just don't have enough time or energy to do it properly.
Pete told Dad he was suffering from occupational stress, and Dad told him to stop being a pussy.
It's all a crock of shit, is what it is.
Improved work practices.
The only reason you're here is your sister is getting on my tits.
- A dinner invitation? Ha.
- Humour me.
So, I found the first brick for your sex wall.
This is about sex, this is about physicality, this is about losing the familiarity you have right now with Mick's body.
That's it.
(ON PHONE) Sorry, I don't think I'm going to make it tonight.
Please send my apologies to "Kristy.
" - Uh, Kirsty.
I will do.
- Sorry, "Kirsty.
" If we never tell anyone, it never happened.
I think you're underestimating my sisters.
I'm in love with you.
Move in.
Here we go.
Put that in the box, darling.
Oh! Good girl.
- (KNOCKING) - Oh! Harry! Oh, Zoe.
Hello! - Hi! - Hi.
- Welcome home.
- Oh, thanks.
Just put it all here, and we can sort it out after work.
Yeah.
We've got dinner at my parents.
Yes! Can't wait.
Is the rest of your stuff in the car, or? No, this is everything.
Oh, this is all you're bringing? Yep.
(LAUGHS) Okay.
What about all the stuff at your house? Don't need it.
I'm glad to be rid of it, actually.
Okay.
Great, that was easy.
Easiest move in history.
(THINKS) Two bags? That's it? Oh, why, oh, why, oh, why won't you sing? Bring your hips to me, oh, bring your hips Oh, oh, bring your hips to me To me Oh, bring your hips to me Oh, bring your hips Oh, oh, bring your hips to me To me To me Oh, why, oh, why Oh, why won't you sing? Nah, nah, I want to fight for this, Andrew.
No, a connection like this comes up once in a lifetime.
I would do anything for you! You know, I feel like I can tell you anything.
I want to have babies with you! (GIGGLES) Oh, don't go.
Oh, well, can I come too? No, what about lunch? I just, I miss you.
It's weird.
Well, can you call me? Please? I'm not going to breathe unt He's gone.
Billie, what was that? I'm never going to hear from him again.
So, you mean It's fundamental to building a sex wall is making sure I don't leave behind a string of broken hearts.
So, I sext them, then pre-emptively pretend to be overly in love with them in a needy, bordering on obsessive way.
- That is brilliant.
- Thank you.
I've got to go.
Mm.
Thank you.
- Bye! - Bye.
(PHONE BUZZES) (MESSAGE) Hi, you've reached Kerry Green.
So, you're meeting Harry's family at last.
Mm-hmm.
Can you secretly film it so I can see? Don't worry, I'll make a full report.
It's so important for you to be amazing tonight.
How's the big move-in going? It's done, actually.
Harry only moved two bags.
What about his furniture? - Doesn't want it.
- Oh.
Well, maybe, I don't know, it's some kind of stress reaction to moving in.
It is one of the top five traumas.
No, I think he's very relaxed about it.
Mm.
Don't underestimate it, Neens.
Moving in can provoke all kinds of conflict.
What if he's messy? What if he's weird about where things should go? You're going to have to learn how to share.
- Are you feeling insecure? - I wasn't.
You should've stayed at home, you know, nested together.
I didn't have that luxury! - Oh, this is me.
- Oh.
- See ya.
- Bye! Morning, Kerry.
Morning, Kerry! I'm on the phone, Billie.
I want Martin to come home, sure.
But the distance is having an incredible effect on our sex life.
Not only that, we're writing back and forth.
Writing what? Text messages, then letters, then emails.
Sexy emails? But it's gone beyond that now to, like, kind of, - I guess, stories.
- Porn? Oh, fantasies? No.
Except yes.
- Oh, you've got to show us.
- Yeah, you got to show us.
Oh, this is nice, just like old times.
What are you doing here? Ha.
Still with the Ah.
Hey, did Harry move in? Yes, he did.
Sort of.
Sort of? Yeah, he moved in a couple of bags.
A suitcase and a Hong Kong shopper.
Oh, that's pretty bad.
Where's his furniture? Well, he he didn't bring any which is good, isn't it? Because who needs two dining tables? His furniture is at his ex's, so she has his things.
Yeah, that's not moving in.
That's like one foot in each camp.
Like, he needs to move in something big.
- Yeah, like a couch.
- Or a wardrobe.
I've got built-in wardrobes, so Yeah, well, just something heavy, - to prove that he's serious.
- A bed.
Can I have a word with you, Cherie? Hmm.
- Like, a freezer.
- A kennel.
Cherie, about Martin and this long distance Oh, my God, yes, I can tell you, it has been I don't know, beyond, well, anything.
I've spoken to him, and I've spoken to you, and you're just both so distracted by the sexual charge.
We've been writing.
It's been intense.
I didn't know words could do that.
I just can't keep my life in limbo while you two play sex games.
I'm sorry.
If he wants to stay out there, and you're both enjoying it, that's great, but this has got to end.
I get it.
Of course.
You're right.
Sorry.
I mean, you've covered so well for him.
You're right.
Thank you.
Oh, hey, Nina.
I heard about Harry.
The non-committal move.
He's got to move in a bed, or a fridge.
A fridge is hard to move.
No, it's not about furniture or white goods or anything heavy.
What you need to do is check his urine.
As long as his urine stops smelling in a few days, it means he's less threatened and he's more likely to stay.
- He's not a cat.
- Trust me.
I'll talk to Martin.
Thank you.
Idiot.
- Hi! - Hey.
What's happening tonight? I was planning on working.
Why? I'm going out.
I will not be available for child care because I'm going out.
- Have you got a date? - No! Why would you think that? I can go out of the house for the evening without it being a date.
Why would you assume it's a date? I didn't.
But I do now.
I'm just going out for dinner, that's all.
It's not a date.
Shut up! Busy? Just making sure our productivity report addresses all of the criteria.
Um, I've pulled our meeting forward an hour.
I hope that suits.
Sure.
Actually, Emma, I've thought about it and the lack of certainty about Martin Clegg's return - is making my schedule - I understand.
Hasn't been fair to you.
I'll sort it out.
- Really? - Yes.
Leave it with me.
Thank you.
(SIGHS) (KNOCKING) Yeah? Okay, is something wrong? What? You locked yourself up in here and you're acting weird.
What is it? You're not responding.
(SIGHS) Something to do with breaking up with Will? Billie, I don't want to talk about it.
Wish you hadn't broken up with Will? That's part of it, but You know what? Sometimes things happen in the heat of the moment, and it's okay to admit if you made a mistake.
You know what I want you to focus on? Your next date, which I have lined up.
This one is a step up.
I know him a little.
He's a very special guy.
Special how? Smart.
A complex test.
Good match for you.
In what way? - You'll see when you meet him.
- Okay.
I'm going to order some lunch.
Do you want some? No, thank you.
(SIGHS) I know that you were distracting me just now with the date.
I just want you to realise that I'm still tuned in to your strange emotional thing, and I'm eager to help there, too.
I'm fine.
Oh, Emma, I'm just coming.
I just wanted to let you know I've contacted Martin Clegg.
Oh, you found him.
I gave him an ultimatum.
Either he tells us when he's returning, or we replace him.
Right.
Gosh.
Anyway, the upshot is that Martin Clegg will not be returning to St Francis.
You fired him? It was a long time coming.
We will be advertising for the position of Head of Obstetrics.
I hope you continue to perform the role until we can appoint a replacement.
Anyway, um, staff meeting.
(THINKS) Did I just get Martin Clegg fired? (PHONE LINE RINGS) JIMMY: Hey? Hey, Jimmy, can you pick me up some noodles from that Japanese place? No, because use the app.
Why would I when it's quicker to go straight to you? I don't get paid unless you use the app.
I'll pay you.
Billie, I'm not your personal servant.
This is the last time.
I can hear you smiling.
- Same noodle soup? - Yes, please.
All right, Billie Billie, is Kerry there? Why? Just wondering if she wants anything.
No.
She's there, but she doesn't want anything? Or she's not there? Why? No reason.
She says she doesn't want lunch, but bring her something.
She needs to eat.
Bye.
(MESSAGE) You have reached Martin Clegg, PhD.
Please leave a message and I will get back to you.
(BEEP!) (THINKS) Martin's been sacked.
They're advertising the position.
And it means someone has to tell Cherie.
Cherie, you remember Kate.
Oh, wow, Kate, you look like you're ready to go.
Would you try calling Ewan again? Yeah, of course.
Everything all right? We can talk later.
Yes, go.
- Oh, Ewan! - Are you all right? The baby's coming.
- Brody! Hello.
- Hi.
I need to talk to you.
My office.
You remember Jason? Bob's father? What's happened? What's he done? Nothing bad.
- We've just been hanging out.
- Oh.
And the thing is, he's really changed.
And we've been really great together, totally 100% different, and he's amazing with Bob.
And he calls him Robbo.
So, I - So, you want me to tell Billie? - I know.
Sorry.
I just wanted to avoid her first reaction.
Second reaction I can deal with.
It's always less emotional.
You know what? This time it's important for you to have that conversation yourself.
Really? Come on.
Be brave.
You'll feel better.
Hello again.
Would you like the boardroom today, Billie? Ha.
No.
I've been tracking back to when you first started acting strangely.
Leave it, please.
And it was after the night of my first date when you and Jimmy were shadowing me.
Don't over-analyse everything.
Is it something I did or something that happened? (LAUGHS) No.
JIMMY: Hello? (NERVOUS CLATTERING) In here! Oh, I'll just leave them out here.
No, come in and say hi to Kerry.
(KERRY CLEARS THROAT) Here we go.
N-noodles.
Yum.
Oh, hey, Kerry.
- How you going, Jimmy? - Yeah, good.
You? - Good.
- Good.
Yeah.
Wh-where do you want your food? Why don't you come and have some, Jimmy? No, I'm um, good.
All right, I can't take it.
We had almost-sex.
Wha I can't believe you! Sorry.
Billie, it was a party pash that just went too far.
A party poke, it was so short.
It was hardly in.
I don't think it actually went in.
I felt it on my leg.
Uh, I feel sick.
What do we do? - Wha?! - What happens now? Usually she comes back in a minute, really mad, and just rips the shit through you.
Us.
Awesome.
I know you're both adults.
Your relationships are none of my business.
But I've been cheated on, and I've also been the cheater, so I know all about being weak and being drunk and being lonely and angry, and the desire to make it all go away by pretending that nothing ever happened.
- Yeah, I - Let me finish.
The thing is, the lies and the secrets, they're like stealing.
You steal a little bit here and a little bit there, from your partner's trust, from your own self-respect.
And then you steal a little bit more and a little bit more with every little lie that covers up all the other lies, until finally you've stolen so much there's nothing left.
There's nothing.
And the truth comes out anyway 'cause it always does.
Do you think she's going to tell them? I have no idea.
(WAILS) She's been at 10 centimetres for an hour.
- The labour's not progressing.
- EWAN: What's going on? - That's not a contraction.
- Stop! Foetal heart rate is 105 with variable decelerations.
Foetal bradycardia.
Can someone tell me what is happening, please?! - Kate, Kate? - Has Kate had a caesarean before? - No, this is our first child.
- Okay, she's going into shock.
- I'm calling code green.
- Yep.
Kate, stay with me.
Stay with me.
Code green, Theatre One.
We're going to transfer her to the operating room and do an emergency caesarean.
- Get Nina.
- Yep.
(BABY CRIES) (CRYING) NURSE: It's okay, it's okay.
It's okay.
- Elvis? - There's a rupture.
There it is, can you see it? That's definitely scar tissue.
Kate said this was her first child.
Clamp.
- (SIGHS) - It's under control.
(SIGHS) Kate, is it possible that you've had a caesarean before? Yeah, I was 17.
Ewan doesn't know.
I should've told you.
We really needed to know that.
We're discreet.
We'll always protect your privacy.
What happened to your first baby? That's none of our business.
No, it's okay.
Baby didn't make it.
I was very young.
He's gorgeous.
Oh, wait, wait.
You come here.
No, not you.
Actually, you can you can come too.
- What is it? - So, anyway, Cherie and Martin have been writing to each other.
Their sex letters! Sex letters? Yes, they started off as letters and then turn into I don't even know what.
Sex fantasies, kind of.
And then turn into something a bit more structured, like, with character arcs and sub-plots.
It is a major endeavour, and this is it.
Why do you have it? Oh, it's just that Cherie's laptop kind of hit print.
- Kim.
- Yes, it was a moral grey area, but Cherie was going to show us anyway.
- Yes! - Can I read it? I know you've been busy very busy.
But I want you to think very hard about what I'm about to say.
I want you to be my guru.
Your what? Help me be more spontaneous! You're so impulsive.
You you you buy a caravan on a whim, start new jobs, have ideas, take the kids on adventures.
I'm not exactly winning at the game of life, Will.
I don't want to be exactly like you.
I just want to be more like you.
Look, here's what I'm suggesting.
Text me, randomly, day or night, to do the opposite.
- The opposite of? - Of whatever I'm doing! Just say, "Opposite!" Or tell me to say yes to the next thing, or to buy the next thing I see.
You know, just help me kick my planning habit.
I don't think I'm the right person, Will.
Please, Jimmy.
I'm sorry.
I think it's a good idea.
I can see what you're doing, but you're better off just doing it yourself.
I'm sorry.
(THINKS) Oh suck it up, Nina.
You have to tell her.
- Cherie! - Hey, I'm off.
- Can I just - What is it? Something happened today.
I had a talk with Emma.
There's oh, there's no easy way to say this.
And I'm not sure that I managed the conversation very well, but the thing is the hospital is going to advertise Martin's job.
What? What does that mean? He's being removed.
I'm so sorry, Cherie.
I honestly didn't know it was going to come to this.
Bullshit.
They can't do this, can they? Can they? Emma did say it was the end of a long road.
- You did this? - Um well I might have You forced them to make a decision! I know but I'm going to make this right.
No, you pushed them.
Thanks a lot.
- Cherie - Don't! - Hey.
- Hi.
Harry I've got a confession to make.
I don't actually feel like you've moved in.
How come? I know it's a big thing, moving in together, that it can be a real trauma.
Are you finding it traumatic? No.
No, I'm not.
But I feel like you might be having doubts.
No, why would you think that? Well, for one, most people move in with, I don't know, more than two bags.
You have everything.
We don't need my stuff.
I can make room.
Bring some stuff.
Bring some furniture.
Anything, something.
Something heavy.
Why? Well, would you rather that Georgie keeps your things? Georgie? What? Isn't that giving her that part of you? No, I'm not my stuff.
(THINKS) Leave it.
This'll only explode.
Okay, well, you know what I mean.
No, I'm not sure that I do.
Well, are you here or are you not here? Where are you going? Nina? Nina?! If this is the relationship you want, then I'm not interested.
Don't walk out on me.
Don't dump with me a problem and then walk away.
I just If there's something to figure out, we'll figure it out, together.
Okay? I don't think this is about furniture at all.
(SIGHS) I'm sorry.
I just I wanted today to be amazing.
I wanted to be amazing.
And I want to trust things.
I'm a bit nervous about meeting your family.
Okay.
Well, if we're being honest, I'm nervous about that, too.
But it's their behaviour I'm worried about.
I mean, expect some strong ideas.
I find it helps to roll with the punches.
Look, I don't think we'll need to take it that far, but I will have a careful look at it and we'll talk further.
- Thank you, appreciate your help.
- Not a problem.
Have a good day.
(PHONE CHIMES) (SIGHS) - Forgot where I'm going.
(CHUCKLES) - (PHONE CHIMES) Talk soon! (PHONE RINGS) Oh, it's Billie.
Hi.
Neens.
Are you at dinner yet? No, just going in now.
Okay, I need to tell you something.
I'm ashamed, but I need to offload, and you're the trustworthiest.
- Oh, can it wait? - No, it can't.
Sorry.
- That's okay, I'll warm them up.
- Two seconds.
Billie, hurry up.
What is it? Earlier today, I learned, or guessed, - that Jimmy and Kerry had sex.
- No! I know.
It's awful.
But I had to tell because I'm so bad at keeping secrets.
(PHONE RINGS) You know, I think my attitude is different when I look backwards.
The next person you see, ask what they're doing tonight and invite yourself along.
Oh, shit! Um, uh Easy, guess who it is.
- It's our sister.
- Which one? Billie.
Billie! - Speak of the devil.
- Who is it? It's Will.
Wait, wait, has she seen you? Yeah.
Neens, you have to talk me down.
Billie, please don't say anything to him.
- Change of plan.
Ah, do do a dance.
- What? Dance away, dance back the way you came.
- I'm walking towards him.
- Stop, right now.
Uh - (LAUGHS) - Are you dancing? Yes! - He's dancing.
- He's what? - Now, dance away from her.
- Okay.
He danced away.
I need to go now.
That was almost the worst thing that ever happened.
Goodbye.
Oh (SIGHS) Ooh! (DOOR THUDS) HARRY: (MURMURS) She's coming, she had to take a call.
MOTHER: What about Zoe? I thought you were bringing her.
- (INDISTINCT CONVERSATION) - (SOFT CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYS) I so wanted to meet her.
(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION) There she is.
Hello.
Hi.
At last we meet.
Hi! (THINKS) It's Kirsty.
Kristy.
No, Kirsty.
- Hi, Kristy.
- Kirsty.
- Kirsty, sorry.
- It's fine.
- I'm Jill.
And you must be Nina.
- Hi.
Nina.
Hi.
It's lovely to meet you.
Jube? Oh, thank you.
Dad, this is Nina.
Nina, Drew.
Hi, Drew, it's so nice to meet you.
- Nina.
- Ah, where's Russ? - RUSS: Hi, hi, hi! - Ooh, here he comes.
Russell needs to make his own entrance.
Oh, my God, have we got the makings of a spritz before I die? - Hi! - Hi.
Oh, it's so great to finally meet you! (LAUGHS) - Hello, bum face.
- Hi, buddy.
You have done very well for yourself here.
Uh, so I heard about your weird dinner with Georgie.
Oh, of course, she called you straight after.
She's okay, in case you were wondering.
What a strange thing to do.
Ask her over to your current girlfriend's house to break up with her all over again.
(THINKS) Did she just say "current"? That's not exactly how it went.
Well, it's all right, though.
Georgie's strong.
She's got her head screwed on, that one.
She's a clever girl.
She's a cow! Drink, Nina? That's my bestie you're talking about.
Anyway Just saying, she's not as perfect as you all make out.
- Can we just all - I am on Team Nina.
Oh, thank you.
Dancers need attention.
- Georgie's not exactly a dancer.
- (ALL LAUGH) - Guys - (THINKS) Is this really happening? - Very needy.
- That is not true at all.
No one could service that ego.
That's probably why Harry and Georgie could never quite manage to work it out.
(THINKS) Hang on, pause.
Can we just play that again? - (TAPE REWINDS) - That's probably why Harry and Georgie could never quite manage to work it out.
- (THINKS) Again.
- (TAPE REWINDS) Never quite manage to work it out.
(THINKS) Manage or managed? I definitely said manage, as in, I'm still holding out hope.
And all of Harry's stuff is still with Georgie.
Two bags and no furniture, he's not committing to you.
Plus, don't forget you got your boss fired and everyone hates you.
Team Nina! (TRIES TO CHUCKLE CHEERFULLY) It's it's huge.
It's enormous.
Biggest majority in council history.
Geral - No, not here.
Somewhere further back.
- (CLASSICAL PIANO MUSIC PLAYING) Oh um do you have a table a little less visible to the street? (PHIL) Ah.
(GERALDINE CLEARS HER THROAT) Better? We'll see.
Why are you being so skittish? I'm not.
I would just prefer not to be seen with you.
- Should I be offended? - Yes.
Well I'm not.
I'm very glad you're here.
You've got five minutes in which to say something interesting or I'm going home.
(SIGHS DEEPLY) - Here we go.
(SIGHS) - (NINA CHUCKLES) Now let's not all stand on ceremony.
(NINA CHUCKLES) Oh, this looks beautiful, Jill.
(JILL CHUCKLES) Thank you.
Harry, are you almost finished giving Dad's business the ol' woo-hoo? - (NINA CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY) - There's no talking work at the table.
It sounds like he's getting ready to bone me.
(CHUCKLES) Sorry I mentioned the war.
Stop stirring the pot.
Let's just talk about something less controversial.
Russell was adopted.
- (CHUCKLES) Really?! - Oh.
- Now you tell me.
- Well, Nina wouldn't know otherwise.
Oh.
More wine anyone? NINA: Yes, please.
Does anyone notice when Harry's nervous he's more formal? - (CHUCKLING) - I'm not nervous.
- Mmm.
- (CHUCKLING) - Shut up.
- (GIGGLING) (PHONE RINGING) NINA: (CHUCKLING) Ah.
Who's bloody phone is that? Oh, I think that's mine.
Sorry.
We have a no phones at the table rule.
Nina has to keep her phone on for work.
Ah, sorry.
Do you need to take it? Um - (PHONE CONTINUES RINGING AND BUZZING) - NINA: Ah - No.
- (PHONE CHIMES) Sorry to growl but it's rude.
HARRY: Dad! It's fine.
(CHUCKLES QUIETLY) Sorry.
Let's eat.
(CUTLERY CLATTERING) (FLAMENCO GUITAR PLAYING) - Billie - Dan.
Lovely to meet you.
You too.
Thank you.
Should we sit? I'd prefer to stand.
Don't you? Sometimes.
(LAUGHS) No, you're right, we should sit.
- Are you nervous? - Do you want me to be nervous? No.
I just wondered.
I ordered us a bottle of temperanilo.
Do you like red? I'm not sure that I've tried it.
Never tried red wine? That's right.
- I find that hard to believe.
- What else do you find hard to believe? - That people really landed on the moon.
- What's the moon? Kerry said that you were fun.
She said you were too.
(CHUCKLES) Do you like tacos? Yeah it has connotations but I can get past that.
Is it a euphemism for something? - What? - Taco.
No, it's just my brother used to own a taquería.
You're kidding? That's funny, so did mine.
In Singapore.
- You serious? - Yeah, dead set.
I haven't heard anyone say "dead set" since Grade Two.
Oh, then you are in for a gnarly, rad night.
After all the harm you've caused my family, my children you think you can charm your way back into my life with a dinner or two? Then, tell me please why you would come all this way just to insult me? The only reason I wanted to come - was to insult you.
- (GASPS MOCKINGLY) I do not believe that at all, and I call you a liar.
- Fine.
- Yes, that's right, leave.
Well, there, yes, off you go.
Go on.
Go on.
Actually I'm going to finish my wine.
(PHIL CHUCKLES SLOWLY) Why don't you go? (CUTLERY CLATTERS) (CUTLERY CLATTERS) Good night.
(CHUCKLES) (CLASSICAL PIANO CONTINUES PLAYING) So how long does it take to write up a report? Can we not talk about work? Come on, just fill in the form, son.
Workplace culture review.
We run a bus company, I mean do we need all this touchy-feely stuff? - Just tick a few boxes - Dad! Jesus, do you actually know what I do? - Does anybody? Do you? - Mmm? Well, yes.
Uh, I have been on the receiving end of Harry's work.
Sorry.
Just the phrasing.
Managing people is more complex than you think, which you'd know if you actually ever thought about it.
No! I forbid this conversation.
I will not have it! Take something off.
I have been managing people since before you were born.
Yeah, and that's going really well for you isn't it? What does that mean? - I think what Harry means is - Don't speak for me, Nina, not here.
Oh no.
You haven’t been around long enough to know what Harry means.
- Dad! - Okay, I'll tell you what I mean I think the company has a huge top-down problem.
- It starts with you.
- Harry.
You're a menace to the people who've given their lives to work for you.
You're what's technically known as a bully.
- Have another drink.
- Oh, take some responsibility for once and accept that something needs to change.
You need to change.
(SIGHING) We should go.
Sorry, Mum, we're gonna go.
- Thanks for a lovely dinner.
- Thank you.
(DREW CLEARS HIS THROAT) (DOOR OPENS) (SIGHS) I'll just put Zoey to bed.
(SIGHS QUIETLY) (SIGHS) (SIGHS AGAIN) That was, um (CHUCKLES) lovely.
(LAUGHS) Can I see you again? Why? I dunno.
I think I like you or something.
Where's your phone? (CHUCKLES) (KEYPAD TONES) Do you want a ride home? Nuh.
- See ya.
- (CHUCKLES) Harry? - (KNOCKING) - (SIGHS) (CHERIE SIGHS) Can I come in? Mm-hm.

(CHUCKLES) Cherie, I'm so sorry.
I want you to know that there is nothing I would deliberately do to jeopardise Martin's job, - or your relationship.
- No.
I know.
I spoke with him.
He tried to call you.
I was at dinner.
(SIGHS) Well, it turns out that he doesn't want to come home just yet.
He's happy out there.
He loves it.
And let's face it, our marriage is at another level right now.
You're not worried? Mmm, the fact that I can't control him is part of why I love him.
Wait there's something else.
I have a print out of some of the sexual stuff that you and Martin have been writing.
Oh bloody Kim.

She went, "No".
