- No.

So did you finish?

Yeah.

You not hungry?

I am.

I think I am. I don't know,

I'm just

a bit constipated.

That's how Elvis Presley died.

You need to be careful.

I need you for my lines.

Uh, boss man. To go, please.

What do you say?

You said, "Show me, see me"

instead of, "See me, show me.

f*ck, okay cool. One more time.

"Our beauty excludes no woman

or girl."

"I am woman.

Fitness comes in all sizes.

I am woman;

our beauty isn't binary."

"I am woman;

our hair is professional.

Show me, see me

like everyone else.

If we show you a world

where every woman is seen

And ladies show show us all."

- Anything?

- You said, uh, "See me, show me

exactly like,"

it's "exactly the same as."

Let me see.

Apart from that, I

don't know if that's

- Cool.

- It's perfect.

How'd you smash your phone?

Bez? What?

Bells.

I don't know.

How can you not know

how you smashed your phone?

I don't know how I don't

Right. Simon have coke?

- What?

- Did Simon have coke?

- Yeah, yeah.

- Right.

So you were doing coke

No, I mean, I had a bump, T.

So

All right.

Well, you were with Simon

probably took back to work.

Alie?

Yeah?

I think we should call Simon.

We should call Simon

just to check.

I'll just move my audition.

All right, this is

Simon Ridgley.

It's gone to voicemail.

Excuse me.

Terry.

Hi Simon, I'm with Arabella.

We tried to call from her phone

but you didn't pick up, so

we'd call from another line.

Hey, Si.

I'm at work right now, you know.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

so just one thing, one thing.

I just wanted to know how

How did last night end?

- How did it end?

- Yeah.

I went I went Derae's hotel

I went back with him

'cause it was his last night,

so I went back,

and I then went to work.

Terry, what's good?

Is everything all right?

Okay, cool, but how how did

Yeah, yeah, how did

we say goodbye. How did it end?

Well, you were pretty waved.

Uh, you said you had

to go to work,

so I walked you back.

You were with me, yeah?

You were there the whole night.

You were with me the night,

yeah?

Of course.

You're good, man. You're good.

All right.

sh*t, I'm out here going

Sorry, we just need to call

for confirmation that

you took her back to work.

I haven't slept.

Simon, I'm so sorry.

I haven't slept.

Thank you, thank you, yeah.

Hey Si, listen. Um

Like, why is my head, like,

bleeding, my phone smashed?

Um I think you fell.

Yeah, you fell.

Where's the blood coming

from? Where you bleeding?

It's like my head and um

Is it bad?

Uh Nah, it's like

Yeah, no.

That's good, then.

That's all good, all good.

- Bells.

- Yeah.

- Get some sleep, yeah?

- Bye.

- Well, that's good.

- Yeah?

Oh, my god, it's like so good.

Yeah, my head's been like

Yeah, like, I don't know

something.

Okay, what you mean?

I've got this like

thing in my head of, like,

this guy, um

He's in a toilet cubicle,

and he's like

I dunno, it seems like he did

something a bit dodge.

He's pantin' and sweatin'.

He's got really big nostrils,

and it's like he's blocking

the door,

and the door is like

I don't know, there's

this like thumping sound.

Yeah, it's like he's

I don't know, like,

blocking the door.

Trust me, like, before you came,

I was just in my room

watching YouTube video

after YouTube video

trying my mind from you know?

- What?

- I'll show you.

It's about, like, false images

in the mind.

Imagine for a second

a duck teaching a French class,

a ping pong match in orbit

around a black hole,

a dolphin balancing a pineapple.

You probably haven't actually

seen any of these things,

but you can imagine them

instantly.

How does your brain

produce an image

of something you've never seen?

That may not seem hard,

but that

Oh no No.

He's gonna ask me how I'm doing

and all that.

He doesn't even know I went out.

He's gonna be pissed.

All gone.

Now, you need to sleep.

It's been, what

Thirty-five hours.

- I think.

- Yeah.

- Where's your head scarf?

- Top drawer.

- Here you go.

- Thanks, babe.

He probably thinks I'm like

countin' macronutrients

- and doing meditation.

- Who?

Biagio.

Well, Biagio can wait.

Right now, we need to sleep.

- I should sleep.

- That's all.

- I need to go.

- Oh! Feminist beauty campaign!

Yes.

Thanks, babe.

- Okay. Bye. Thanks.

- Good luck. Good luck, babe.

Thank you.

I'm Terry Pratchard, IG handle,

@therealterrypratchard.

And

Oh, follower count, 7,236.

Great. So, just before we read,

what's the most freeing thing

you've ever done?

"Most freeing thing." Um

Oh I may need to think

about that one.

Okay, that's great.

- Thank you.

- Sorry.

So, this, as you know,

is our new campaign.

Situational shots,

playing sports, yoga,

applying makeup,

and your section

is at the hair shop.

Getting that hair did.

That's right!

That's it, so um

Scarlett is gonna read

the other parts

and join you

for the ensemble lines.

- Cool.

- Okay.

We are women.

Our beauty

excludes no woman or girl.

I am woman;

our fitness comes in all sizes.

I am woman;

our beauty isn't binary.

I am woman;

our hair is professional.

See me, show me

exactly like everyone else.

If we show you a world

where every woman is seen,

then girls, you'll show us all.

- Really great.

- Thank you.

So, um

Just in terms of the

Is that your real hair?

Uh, no. It's a wig.

Okay. Just She's at the salon,

so there's a chance

it's gonna be

being washed, dried.

- Do you do that to your

- Yeah, it's human hair.

Do you ever take it off?

Yeah, I take it off

all the time.

Can we see

what your hair's like?

Maybe not now

Uh, another day

so I can prepare it.

Okay. Well, thanks so much.

Thank you.

I had a threesome once.

Okay.

Yeah. Thanks.

Thanks guys. Bye.

Half the annual

average for the number of

people k*lled by flooding.

Last Friday, the region

has reported a death toll of

42 people.

- Has Alissa rung yet?

- No.

What's in the mash?

Guess.

It's not red kidney beans.

One more go.

I don't know.

Sweet plantain and pinto beans.

Yeah.

I mashed them both separately,

and then blended them.

Where'd you get that from?

I don't know.

It just came to me.

Doesn't sound like something

I'd necessarily like.

But I like it.

No, hold on. No, no, no.

We're not watching this

in my yard.

Let's do another.

- Science.

- Animation.

At the same time.

Yeah, go on then. Lovely!

Consciousness is perhaps

the biggest riddle in nature.

Stripped to its core meaning,

consciousness is what allows us

to be aware

both of our surroundings

and of our own inner state.

But thinking about

consciousness has this habit

- of taking us around

in circles.

- Oh, where'd you get that?

Oh. Yeah, I know. I fell.

Oh, I should get, um

tissue and a plaster.

But once we try

to pinpoint what exactly it is,

that leaves us grasping

at thin air.

Different schools and ideas

compete with one another,

but no one has come close

to figuring it out.

It's unsettling to realize

that we don't understand

what makes us aware of

ourselves and the world.

In this fuzzy area,

consciousness and intelligence

are also related,

although they are not the same.

Um, Ben

There's another thing.

I'm standing outside,

I'm staring at a cash point,

and it's hard to stand straight,

like

as if the wind's really strong.

I'm tryna', like

put my my pin in

on on the keypad,

but when I try to press

the right buttons,

the keypad numbers keep movin'.

Here.

Looks like you took

40 quid out.

Camden.

Thought you were in Soho.

A bit of a ways away.

He's stupid.

I have no idea.

Pinto. Pinto and Plantain.

He's mashing up the plantain,

sees a can of pinto, and mashes

the two of them together.

- Put 'em in a blender.

- Thank you.

- It's good, right?

- Mm. Nice.

Manage to get some sleep, yeah?

Uh, I tried.

But I haven't slept.

Sorry again about this morning.

This black out had me like

It's all good, eat up, man.

I need to you know,

just gather the pieces,

any of the pieces.

I was, uh looking through

my bank statements,

and it looks like we stopped off

at the cash point.

So did we go to the bank,

and then you walked me back?

Yeah.

Okay, so we we were

at the cash point together

and then you walked me

back to work.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

It's like 45 minutes

if we walk it

'cause it was in Camden.

So did we get an Uber,

or 'cause

Yeah, we got Uber,

then I went back to Ego Death

to meet Derae.

- 'cause, you know,

it was his last night.

- Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then went back to his hotel

afterwards,

you know, and uh Yeah.

Who booked the Uber?

Who booked the Uber?

Yeah, uh

Who booked the f*cking Uber?

'Cause I haven't used Uber.

Was it Uber?

You said Uber.

I was just thinking

'cause it's like

Don't know if I booked

on my phone or

maybe Derae booked it.

Tell you what, when he gets off

the flight, I'll check.

You said you went back

to the bar to meet Derae,

so Derae wasn't there.

Can I see your Uber receipts,

please?

Thanks, I'm just gonna, um

Thanks.

- Hi, I'm so sorry.

- What's going on?

I'm really sorry. Uh

Yeah, I didn't know I was gonna

end up at your

I just turned up at your, um

I'm so sorry.

Uh Yeah.

- Simon gave me your

- Yeah. What did Simon say

exactly?

I don't

Don't even worry about that.

That's not my Um Yeah.

I don't want to cause any

trouble.

I don't care about that.

It's not my problem,

you know.

- So what is the problem?

- There is no problem.

It's just not mine.

The thing that is not a problem

is not

a thing for me.

He told you everything?

Well, if you're okay with it

then I guess I can say

it was really nice to meet you

last night.

Well, the little I remember.

- What?

- Yeah.

We were in that bar and

- At Ego, yeah.

- Yeah.

Then I woke up this morning.

- Really?

- Yeah.

My housemates reckon

I got spiked 'cause

I had to cancel my shift

I feel that sh*t.

I've been tellin' Simon

all mornin'.

And he's ignoring me.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Sorry, what do you want?

I have a blackout.

It's the same.

Well, sh*t.

I guess I actually was spiked.

And I

think I remember seeing

someone being attacked.

Oh. Oh no.

The person we both know

in the story is Simon.

Okay?

Because of what I remember,

I don't know if you've been safe

all night.

I don't think Simon's a criminal

if that's what

you're getting at.

He comes over every Thursday

and he hasn't stolen

a thing, so.

Yeah. I was safe.

I've been safe f*ck' Simon

for six months now.

Yeah. I'm not an idiot,

despite what you may think.

- No, I I

- No, I didn't say

you called me an idiot.

I said you might think

I'm an idiot.

Okay, so I'm gonna call me

an Uber and

"Sure you were safe."

Clearly, you think I'm someone

you can patronize,

and clearly you enjoy CSI,

so why don't you find out

where the f*ck you were?

Simon doesn't have

a criminal bone in his body.

He couldn't even cope with me

spending one evening with Kat

undercover, 'cause she's the one

lookin' for p*ssy.

It's not like I'd ever

Because she's gross.

I just wanted to meet her!

But the boy's having

heart palpitations

because he's a f*cking p*ssy.

And you're at my door

with some bullshit

conspiracy theory

of Simon the r*pist. You're out

of your f*cking mind, b*tch.

You're sick in the head.

You need to go take

some medication,

because he never told me

you were crazy!

- Get some f*cking help.

- Yep, it's coming in one minute.

Yo, T, I got spiked, you know.

Issit?

Yeah, yeah. I think so, yeah.

So, I'm gonna go to the station.

Issit?

Yeah, I

it's something

I should probably tell them.

About the thing in your head?

I've literally got no idea.

Aight. Well

Where you at?

I just got home.

- Call me after, yeah?

- Aight.

- Aight, cool, cool. Bye. Bye.

- Bye.

Aye.

- Kwame.

- Yo.

Hi, Arabella.

- Hi.

- And who's this?

- This is Kwame.

- And he is?

I wasn't involved.

I wasn't there. Just Kwame.

Okay. Arabella, I'm Funmi.

Beth and I have been assigned as

special officers to your case.

We've read

your initial statement.

We're going to ask you

a few questions,

then if we feel it's necessary,

we'll take you over

to the sexual as*ault

referral unit for forensics.

And then, get you home safely,

okay?

Do you have any reason

to believe

that this friend of yours,

Simon or Derae,

would spike your drinks, or

want to hurt you in any way?

No.

There were another two,

We didn't know 'em, so

I don't know. It wouldn't

have been Simon. He's my friend.

He's one of my best friends.

He really is.

He wasn't even in Camden.

I guess

He just left me somewhere

which is quite weird.

I kinda made my deadline.

Did I tell you?

And the as*ault, you recall

- The thing in my head?

- Yes.

Yeah, I wouldn't

Yeah, 'cause now you're

calling it something I never

I never said that.

Do you see anyone else?

- Where?

- In this memory.

No you you can't

call it a memory.

Okay, other than the man

in the

In my head,

who may not even be real,

because I'm the person

who can actually see it,

and I'm not sure, so

we should probably pay attention

to that.

- Yes.

- Yeah, 'cause we don't know.

That's a very big thing

to assume. I'm just

saying that we should

refrain from

talking about things

like they're facts.

We should

We should probably just

- be careful.

- Okay.

The man, he doesn't seem

too dissimilar

from the gentleman you describe

at Ego Death.

Hmm, David?

Hmm

No, no, 'cause David was

He's kinda short.

Like not that much taller

than me.

And he never had that nose

like the dude in my head.

He had large nostrils and David

never had large nostrils, so

If you're looking at someone

who's taller than you,

you see more of their nostrils

than you would

someone who's shorter than you,

wouldn't you?

But if you're on the floor

looking up at an individual,

the nostrils will always

look prominent,

and they might seem taller.

Because of the angle. See?

Can you see the person's eyes

in your

Yeah, I can, uh

Yeah, I can see everything.

I can see his

whole face very clearly.

Yeah, maybe we can

Maybe we can draw him or

- You can see his eyes?

- Yeah.

Who's he looking at?

Open wide for me.

Sorry, is that hurtin'?

It looks like you have

a small cut in there.

We'll get someone to come look

at that for you, okay?

Just one more.

I'll be really careful.

Bamboo,

one of the fastest growing

plants in the world,

was once considered

a humble plant.

But it's now enjoying a new

rep. This wood-like

Do you mind? Because some people

are like Blegh!

No, no, no, do your thing.

Sorry.

Bless ya.

First time?

Yeah.

Really? Whoops.

Mad, innit?

How everything is beautiful,

and nothing hurts.

- You're all done.

- Cool.

Is there more at home?

Okay.

Feminist beauty campaign

How was it?

Terrible.

Oh no.

- You okay?

- Are you okay?

Yeah

Yeah, I'm just a bit like

I'm deleting Simon's number.

Mess.

Why would he just leave?

Ask Sherlock Holmes.

-It's making me think back

to Italy.

- Italy? Oh yeah?

- Yeah, like,

we should make a pact

never to disappear, you know.

I told you I was going.

Yeah, but

I was on so many drugs, babe,

I was so f*cked.

Uh, so was I.

Yeah.

I was on, like,

five actual drugs.

You was on three, and two

of which was alcohol and weed,

which are not even really

like drugs.

I didn't disappear.

I told you I was going,

you just can't remember.

I came and I told you.

I told you.

T.

Oh, was it really that bad?

What?

Your audition.

Yeah. I was really sh*t.

I would do this,

but I'm really tired.

How are you doing?

I'm great as long as I'm around

people.

- Flashbacks?

- Sometimes it gets a bit much.

I take her to yoga,

dance class, meditation.

I make her feel good.

I need a plane ticket to Italy.

This is mad, fam.

- You're beautiful.

- Are we ready?

I've never really spoken

to a brother who was

- You could say it.

- A g*y guy.

My therapist said

it's important to do things like

painting, cuddling with people

that I trust.

I've got no idea

what's going on.

We're probably gonna be

having sex soon, innit?

- Should we do that now?

- Yeah.

You get that feeling that

someone's right for you,

but you're not yet the person

you need to be

to also be right

for that person?

Stay.

It's the kind of world where

there are places like this

that you can come and talk

about it

and know that you're not alone.

You are so great.
