Hello?
Yeah, hiya, yeah, yeah.
No, no,
I've been trying to ring you, Aaron.

Is Danny all right?
A Martini?
He's not drunk, is he?
No, I'm fine.
No, all right.
Love...?
f*ck's sake.
So?
[SIGHS]
What?
No, they're fine.
They just... I dunno,
they're just having fun in the pub.
It's loud, so...
Aaron said he got a Martini,
Danny did.
I do reckon we need to have a proper
think about... Well, everything.
We don't even know
what's going on in his head.
He's fine.
He's fine.
Aaron's looking out for him, so...
Oh, right, well.
- What?
- Nothing, he's a good kid.
Just...
You know, he's not exactly
Mr Capable, is he?
- What?
- I'm just saying.
You know what? He's just
down on himself. All right?
He's finally got himself a mate and
they've gone down the pub,
and they're having a nice normal
time watching football
and drinking bloody Martinis!
I think we need to be a bit
more rational about this, OK?
We need to work out if this
is the best place for him.
We've got two little kids, and I just...
D'you know what? I need to do
this for Danny. I need to make it work.
So, you can either help me
or you can f*ck off.
