[bunniefuu]

MAN [ON RADIO]: It's just after 5:00,

and here's a recording of Ricardo Celli conducting

Rossini's "Stabat Mater."

[music playing]

[rustling]

[beeping]

[phone ringing]

Hello?

WILLIAM: Hi, Mary.

Really sorry to wake you. I really am.

I'm sorry.

But I've just been stuck, and I mean stuck, all night,

going through the worst things that could happen to you,

and the girls, and the boys, and the baby.

William?

And it's like, something's going to happen.

You know, something terrible, and there's

nothing I can do to stop it.

William, what did you have to eat last night?

What do you mean, what did I have to eat?

You know what I had to eat.

Yeah, so don't you think that maybe--

What, you think it could be because of the--

Yeah, I think so.

Don't you?

Well, yeah.

Yeah, of course.

Well, no, because also, I heard something outside.

William, you had Stilton pie, followed

by cheese and biscuits.

Yeah.

Yeah, of course.

That's it.

Oh, I'm sorry I woke you up.

Oh, anyway, night.

Bye.

I'll see you at the house, all right?

Now, you go to sleep now.

Shh.

I'm going.

Brendan?

I'm going out.

Shouldn't be long.

OK?

Ah, great.

Come on up.

I think I'm fine.

You had a temperature-- she had a temperature.

You could feel it.

You can still feel it.

So is the old girl overheating, or what?

No, Damien.

The old girl is perfectly normal.

You see, scaredy cat?

Told you so.

Oh, and we dragged you out in the middle of the night.

It's part of my job.

I know, but at six months?

I mean, try getting me out of bed at any time.

It's all right, I'm used to it.

But maybe next time, I mean-- you know, when you're in bed

you get warm, so maybe you could take your own temperature?

If that's your only symptom.

Just to check?

Do you have a thermometer?

Oh, uh--

I don't know.

Darling, do we have a--

I'm not sure.

Well, we could have this one, couldn't we?

Yeah.

Have you got a-- a thingy to put it in?

Um--

Oh, don't look like that.

You can get another one, can't you?

And-- look over there.

I don't wear them anymore, so I thought you might like them?

Oh.

Well, thanks, but--

Well, if you don't like them, you could always

sell them to a secondhand shop.

They're all designer labels.

WILLIAM: Come on, girls.

In the car, now.

I've got a building inspector to meet.

Anything interesting?

Bills, circulars, bills, bills.

Odd socks.

What do you mena, odd socks?

Odd socks.

Sign of bad luck.

I've never heard that before.

Oh, yes.

Well, they're nearly the same color.

Odd is odd.

Come on!

Coming.

Have you got your seatbelts on?

Oh-- bugger.

Damn.

I don't suppose either of you remembered

to feed Bob's rabbit, did you?

No.

Sorry.

And I'm not going to.

I don't think animals should be kept in cages.

Since when?

Since next door went to Florence for the weekend.

No.

Since I saw how happy it was running free.

Well, it's still got to eat.

Well, just don't feed it lettuce.

It'll get diarrhea.

So no offers, then?

Well, thanks very much.

You know, I have got one or two other things on at the moment,

but I can still feed the bunny.

[phone ringing] Oh, what is it with you people?

You're going to see her in 30 seconds.

Switch it off.

Thank you.

Test?

Yeah.

Said he's gonna be there at--

Bye, Dad.

Bye, bye.

Dad?

Your tire.

What?

Aw--

Bad luck.

Well, it's lucky you left the boot open, then, isn't it?

Terence, come on!

I'm coming!

Look at me.

Give us a kiss.

And we're staying over at William's tonight, OK?

Aw, what?

- Kiss. - Kiss.

Yeah, bye.

Hang on at second.

Boots.

Football practice.

- Oh, I'm not going anymore. - Come on, man.

Brendan?

What?

Brendan, how much should did pay for those boots?

Then I'll pay you back!

How much do you want?

What's the matter with you?

Nothing!

Nothing.

Sorry.

Bye.

- [inaudible] - And hurry up.

We ain't got all day.

Shut up.

[phone ringing]

WILLIAM: Mary? - Hi.

How are you feeling now?

Are you there?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Can't you hear me? - Yeah.

No, I mean, are you there?

Are you at the house?

Oh, my god.

No.

No.

Look, I-- I'm on my way.

Sorry.

I'm leaving now.

I-- I got called out.

I fell asleep.

Oh, it's OK.

The building inspector's got a key.

Don't rush.

I'll see you there.

And drive safely.

Bye.

MARY: Hello?

I'm up here.

Wow.

That is going to look great.

Have I missed him?

No, he's out in the garden.

So Rick and Molly are going to be back soon.

We'll need to get some paint in, and--

oh, we'll need to get them a bed.

WILLIAM: Come and see this.

Kitchen.

Bathroom.

Tick.

Bedroom.

Tick.

Phenomenal, beautiful fiance.

Tick.

The whole place is full of ticks.

So what do you think?

It's pretty good, eh?

Mm.

Lovely.

Soft lips.

Good pressure.

Overall great kiss.

Thank you.

MAN: Hello?

We're upstairs.

How many of you?

[crashing]

What was that?

Listen to me very carefully, all right?

Do not move.

What do you mean, don't move?

Listen to me very carefully, please.

You're standing in the center of a ceiling that is being held up

by sub-strength wooden lintel.

The noise you heard just now was part

of that ceiling falling away under your combined weight.

You're joking?

No.

The whole structure may collapse at any moment,

so I need you to follow my instructions to the letter.

Three.

Not two.

What?

She's pregnant.

All the more reason to do exactly as I say.

Now, Mr. Shawcross, as the heavier,

I want you to make your way slowly to this wall,

and stand with your back against it, as close as you can.

What, and leave Mary in the middle of the room?

- You must follow my-- - No!

I'm not leaving Mary alone in the middle of the room.

- William-- - You go first.

She can go first.

OK.

OK.

Mary?

Why can't we do it together?

Please.

I don't know how long this is going to hold out.

Nice and easy.

William?

I'm fine.

Nice and easy.

[crumbling] Easy.

What now?

Take my hand.

[crumbling]

Now you.

[crumbling]

William?

Slowly.

Slowly.

[crumbling]

[shouting]

[crashing]

[screaming]

William!

Oh-- for goodness sake.

Go to sleep.

I'm not tired.

Mary, that was nasty back there.

It was nastier for you.

Yeah, well I'm not pregnant, am I?

Go on.

Get some sleep.

I've got a builder to call.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

I want to hear that.

Rest.

[doorbell] Come on.

I mean it.

[knocking]

William!

Reuben.

Hm?

I thought we had an understanding that you

do not come round here?

We do. Yeah.

We do.

But this surpasses all understandings.

How much did you lend me, William?

How much was it?

I think it was 10 grand!

Reuben, Mary doesn't even know I've been in contact with you,

let alone lent you money.

And she never will.

Well, she will if you don't keep

your voice down, because she's just up there in the bedroom.

Oh, right.

Yeah.

You don't want to do this someplace else?

Because, you know, we-- - No.

Do what?



You gave me 10, I give you 12.

Bang-o record deal.

Oh, yeah.

And that is just the money you repaid.

Because thanks to you, I have a slice of the action.

And I'm going to show you deep gratitude

for giving me this break.

No. The money's fine.

No, no, no, no.

I'm going to make things happen for you now, William.

Yeah, I'd really rather you didn't.

This is more than enough.

Thanks very much. We're quits now.

Well done.

No, no, no, no.

One favor deserves another.

And then, you know, maybe down the line--

you know, maybe you can help me with Brendan, yeah?

Because, you know, I mean, I'm something

for him to be proud of now.

And look-- look at this.

Come here.

Come here!

Look!

[laughter] And Brendan loves cars!

So we-- maybe you can tell him that-- that we

bumped into each other?

And maybe tell Mary, too, yeah?

Cause--

Well, uh, yeah.

Think about it.

Yeah?

Because I trust your judgment.

You know, think about it?

And I'll see you around. - Yeah.

Not around here, though.

Right.

You know, giving you that money back--

that's one of the best moments of my life.

What's that?

Oh, just someone selling tea towels.

What are you doing up?

I've been summoned again.

Mary, no.

Get back to bed.

No.

No, I've got to go.

And anyway, I'm happier doing something.

[knocking]

- Oh, hello. - Hi.

Uh, yeah, I thought I should come round,

rather than speak on the phone.

Is there somewhere we can talk? - Yeah.

Yeah, come in.

Thanks.

Oh, my god.

I'm not saying it was condemned,

but we have to consider the possibility that the remaining

structure may have been rendered untenable through undue stress

on the remaining walls.

Right.

And in a worst case scenario, on the wall adjoining

the property next door.

Meaning?

Meaning in a worst case scenario,

both properties may have to be demolished.

But I won't know for certain until the building's

been secured, and a detailed assessment made.

I only thought it right to warn you,

so that you can contact your insurers.

Yeah.

Yeah, of course.

Thanks, Jeff.

I needn't tell you how sorry I am

to be the bearer of such news.

It will be OK.

Well, you say that, but I don't even

know if we're insured.

What?

Well, I took out a bridging loan to buy our new house,

and not loan's guaranteed by this place.

And I had to sign all kinds of papers,

but I don't actually remember if I signed an insurance policy.

But you might have done?

Well, so how do we find out?

Well, did it through Nicholas.

Well, call him.

Call Nicholas.

And then call me, and let me know.

I'm sorry, I've got to go. - Yeah.

Yeah.

Drive carefully, all right?

[phone ringing]

Karen, hi.

KAREN: Hi.

You on for a home birth?

It's twins.

Could be any time. - Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Just ring.

How's it going?

How were the Fisks?

They were a little, um--

call out happy.

Why?

How many times they had you around?

Oh, this will be the fifth.

Mary, we're not on call till weeks 37, and they know that.

Now, I know.

I-- I'm on my way now, so--

No, it's not on. I'll give them a call.

No, no, no, no.

I'll do it.

I think it's better face to face.

I think they're just a bit anxious, that's all.

OK.

Call me if you need me.

I will do.

Bye.

Nicholas?

Nicholas?

Nicholas, we don't want a lunch appointment.

We just want to find out if-- yes.

Yes, yes, I do.

All right.

But just bring all the files, will you?

All right.

Bye, bye.

You're cross with us, aren't you?

She's cross with us, Damian.

Oh.

Listen, I'm only looking after you for this week, and--

I know, and we're going to miss you.

And I'm not cross, but you have to appreciate--

and I'm sure you know this already, that--

thank you.

Until you're 37 weeks, we should only

be called out in an emergency.

Well, I know.

But this is a kind of emergency, isn't it, darling?

Absolutely.

We've got to book the tickets.

Sorry, I don't understand.

- You have told her? - Well, not yet.

No.

The chairman of Damian's company has invited the wives

of all senior executives to their conference in Costa

Rica the month after next.

Which is fabulous.

Five star hotels, and first class travel.

But, of course, slap bang across my due date.

Inevitably.

So--

So basically, we'd like to induce the baby

two weeks early, OK?

Could you fix that for us?

Problem?

Well, if it's a problem, let me have it.

Damian loves a problem.

Helen, I disapprove of about 90% of inductions,

and that's at full term.

Yeah, sorry, this is a request, not a query.

And I'm not even sure if what you're asking

is possible, but--

all I can say is don't do it.

Don't do it.

But I want to go to Costa Rica.

Listen to me--

No, thanks.

Your baby says when it's time to come out.

Not you.

And certainly not you.

Listen, I think you should ring Karen, yeah?

Um-- because I'm not on call for you anymore.

Yeah, we will ring her.

And a few other people.

But please--

Helen, please reconsider.

Yeah?

Mary!

[inaudible]

I think you should know that I have a frightening number

of contacts, and I'll be making sure you never work

in the private sector again.

Thanks.

I'd appreciate that.

Unbelievable.

[car horn]

Blimey.

You've got the longest legs.

So tomorrow, 8:00?

Come on.





Just say yeah.

Yeah.

[singing]

MARY: He seems unusually nervous.

WILLIAM: I know.

[singing]

MARY: And that is ridiculous.

I thought they didn't allow dogs in restaurants?

WILLIAM: I know. Nicholas is their best customer.

And if anyone complains, he's a guide dog, or something.

Hi, Charles.

He does know he can go back for more, doesn't he?

Good play, Nicolas.

Well played. - What?

Oh, yes.

Yes.

Why wear out the legs when with a little architectural cunning,

one can do it in one?

Yes.

Talking of which--

Ah.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Open jaws.

He's a good boy.

And under the table.

Nicholas?

Yeah.

The bridging loan?

I was thinking, as I was rooting through the--

sweet and sour.

Wonderful concept, isn't it?

Sweet and sour.

Bit like life.

Sorry.

No, I was thinking that our case would

be very much stronger if--

you had, in fact, fallen through the ceiling.

Nicholas, I'm not interested in personal injury claim.

I want to know if the new house is insured.

Because if it isn't, I'm going to have to sell the old house

to pay off the loan.

And if they demolish the new house,

that will leave us homeless.

And, I might add, penniless.

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

I know, but you see, one has to look at all the options.

Really.

I mean, for example, suing the builder.

Eh?

Yes, we can talk about that later,

but we need to establish first whether or not we're insured!

Absolutely.

That's hot.

Steer-- steer clear of that one.

OK, Nicholas, you're starting to make me edgy.

Oh, I'm sorry.

[belching] Excuse me.

Listen-- we are fast becoming a litigation culture.

i.e., if they wrongly condemn your house, sue the inspector.

If they rightly condemn your house, sue the builder.

And if it isn't adequately insured, see the solicitor.

So what does that mean?

We're not insured?

Nicholas, are we insured?

Well-- Yes and no.

OK.

Are we insured if a crappy builder screws up

and nearly destroys our house?

Nicholas?

Nicholas, come on!

You're really--

Oh, my god.

Nicholas?

Nicholas?

Nicholas?

[dog whimpering]

Nicholas?

Nicholas?

Excuse me?

Jack.

He was the same age.

God, I thought he was older.

No.

Same age.

Well, he was two days older.

We used to share our birthday parties when we were kids.

One year we'd have it at his house,

and the next year we'd have it at ours.

[dog barking]

I thought you brought the dog in?

I did, but he uses the cat flap.

He's gonna wake the neighbors.

Yeah.

[inaudible], anyway.

Oh--

What?

I forgot to feed the rabbit.

He'll survive.

So would Nicholas, if he hadn't eaten so much.

Can I tell you something?

You know, when I called you yesterday morning,

when I had all those bad feelings?

Yeah.

Well, what kicked that off was me having this nightmare I

used to have when I was a kid.

The very first time I had that nightmare

was in 1967, when I was staying with Nicholas.

What sort of dream was it?

What sort of nightmare?

Well-- I'm tiny, and I'm trying to get

up the stairs in our old house.

But my legs-- they're like lead.

And there's this "Treasure Island" Black

Eyed Ned character after me.

And I manage to get upstairs into my bedroom,

and into my bed.

But he's in there, and he looms over me,

and he says red spot, or black spot?

[screaming]

Oh my god, Dad!

Kate?

Get it off my bed.

Get it off my bed!

- Oh, my god! - Get!

Oh, god! - Jack!

Jack, come here!

What is that?

Ugh.

[shouting]

Oh, god.

OK, boys, you've seen it on the telly.

Basically, what we're looking for is a head with long ears,

and big front teeth.

And a slightly detached look in the eyes.

He must have found his way under the fence

and go into the hut.

What are we going to tell them next door when they get back?

Barely enough for a small pie.

Wait, Terence!

Catch.

[dog barking]

That was a bloody stupid thing to do.

It was just a joke.

No, Brendan, in this house we respect the dead.

We don't chuck them across the garden.

Just go.

Idiot.

Respect the rabbit.

BRENDAN: Leave me alone!

What? [dog whimpering]

Back!

Get--

We're not keeping him, are we?

No.

I'm going to take him back to Nicholas' office.

One of the girls there wants him.

Anyway, I've got to go around there,

because we still don't know if we're insured.

The house, Nicholas, and Baldrick.

I guess these things come in threes.

William, a rabbit is hardly on a par

with Nicholas and the house.

What, you think something else is going to happen?

Hello?

Oh, Mom, where are you?

Callie.

I was just ringing to let you know that we'll be on our way

as soon as the French farmers let the boats out.

How's everyone?

Yeah, I'm fine.

How's Rick?

Tell her about the house.

I can't listen to you and be speak to her at same time.

Never travel with someone who's never set

foot on foreign soil before.

What's this, what's that?

It's like training a chimpanzee.

Tell her.

I will tell her, if you'll just let me.

Tell her about the house.

Mom, I need to speak-- MOLLY [ON PHONE]: [inaudible].

House?

Mom, you're breaking up.

No.

You-- I'm losing the signal.

I can't--

Mom?

What?

Her battery has gone dead.

You didn't tell her about the house.

William?

Nicholas is in the chapel.

Right.

Well, I'd better do this first.

His ex-wife is on her way up from Eastbourne.

Really?

And I think she might want to use an undertaker's

from down there.

Oh, when I go and see Nicholas,

would you come with me?

Of course.

Thanks.

William?

Hm?

Come in. Don't worry.

It's only a rabbit.

I'm sorry to hear about your cousin, mate.

Thanks.

Bloody our age, wasn't he?

Yeah.

Well, this a sideline, is it?

Taxidermy?

No.

My cousin's dog tore it in two.

It's the next door's rabbit, and I'm supposed to be feeding it.

Whoops.

I thought I'd just put it back.

Well, rabbits die, don't they?

Yeah.

Look, mate, you're probably not up for this, but, um--

we've got ourselves a gig at the Exit Friday week.

What? Great.

Yeah.

Of course I'm up for it.

For the gig, yeah.

But I'm calling extra rehearsals, starting tonight.

And--

I'll be there.

It's just what I need.

Brilliant.

That's fantastic.

How'd you swing a gig at the Exit?

Sorry.

William, Nicholas' ex-wife is here,

and she wants to view the body.

With you.

- I'll shove off, mate. - Right.

- I'll see you later. - Yeah.

Bye.

I'll be there, too.

See, I always saw--

I don't know.

I always saw the eight year old in Nicholas.

I don't know.

Aye.

It's like-- Mrs. Ball is always 22 to me, because that's

the age she was when I met her.

I don't know.

It's not true of everyone.

She's tall, isn't she?

Hm?

Penelope.

Nicholas' ex.

Yeah.

I, uh-- I want to buy him in Eastbourne.

Did they tell you?

Yes.

And he hated the place, but it's more convenient.

Yeah.

Well-- there we go.

Could you call me a cab?

Yes, of course.

See you at the bash, William.

Bye bye, Nicholas.

I'm going to miss you.

[doorbell]

In the front row.

- Oh, thanks. - And Hi.

Hi. I'm Andrew.

I'm Mary.

Hi. - Hi.

I think we're coming fast. - OK.

Keep going.

That's it.

Keep panting.

Just keep panting.

Oh--

Don't push.

Don't push.

The head's coming.

Baby's head's coming.

Push.

[music playing]

[SINGING] There's a rhythm under the sun.

And it beats for the old and the young.

[inaudible] in the back of the sun.

It's the sound of one drummer, one drum.

There's a rhythm.

It's subtle, yet strong.

And it moves all the wallflowers on.

To the dance floor that holds everyone.

[beeping]

[SINGING] To the sound of one drummer, one drum.

Dance, for the time marches on.

Off to a w*r that can never be won.

To the heartbeat of drums.

There's a rhythm under the sun.

What's this?

No-- No what?

Uh-- probably no letters.

Hold that.

OK, Baldrick.

Here we go.

Sorry about this.

There we are.

Baby number two.

[SINGING] There's a rhythm, [inaudible]..

Though you feel bad it's left you behind.

Is it justice, or you that is blind?

When you don't see it coming, how come--

Off.

What?

[knocking]

Yeah?

What do you want?

Brendan-- I'm really sorry if I hurt you.

Really sorry for everything.

Blimey.

Blimey?

Never heard you apologize before.

Well, that's how sorry I am.

Do you want to share a couple of these?

[vocalizing]

I wonder how many twins have been born at home this year?

Not many.

No.

You're very good.

Well done.

They just came out.

No, they didn't.

So, what do you think?

Well, when it works, it really works.

Yeah.

I'm sorry about the Fisks.

God, the Fisks.

No, I mean, this is the way.

I know it is.

I-- and I love the idea of extending antenatal care.

So you might join us, then?

I mean, we'd love that.

I can't.

I just can't.

Why?

Well, because--

Look, what you charge is a fair price.

I mean, I expected it to be more,

but there are just so many women who could never afford that.

And I just think I should be working with them.

But can you work like this?

No.

Oh, well.

That's the fight.

And I think I quite like a fight.

OPERATOR: The number you are dialing may be switched off.

[beeping]

OPERATOR: The number you are dialing may be switched--

[sirens]

But why Steve?

Why sleep with him, and--

and not me?

Because you're-- you're going to be my brother.

We're going to live together.

And-- I don't trust me.

I'm so horrible sometimes.

Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

As long as it's not because my head is so big.

Look.

Have you got anymore?

Cheers.

I was meant to be meeting him tonight.

But I'm glad I'm here.

I'm not going to see him again.

Trouble is you've done it, and--

well, I haven't.

We can put that right.

Do you fancy Celia?

Celia's with Bas.

Aw, what beauty!

Look at those lines.

Oh, I just love a beautiful car.

Don't you?

[car alarm]

sh*t!

Brendan?

[siren]

Oh, sh*t!

Oh, no.

Don't you smile at me.

You gave us a bloody fright, you did!

Come here.

I thought you'd be off.

What would I do without you?

Thought I'd lost you.

Naw.

I'm an NHS girl, me.

Yeah.

No.

And don't you bloody forget it again.

I've got your back.

Hello?

Yeah?

[music playing]

[SINGING] Pump it up, until you can't feel it.

Pump it up when you don't really need it.

Don't really need it.

Don't really need it.

Don't really need it.

Pump it up!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Now, let me tell you something-- let me tell you something,

right?

If you have a whole set like that,

I'm going to mash the place down!

Really wonderful--

Excuse me? Excuse me?

Yeah.

William?

What is this?

This is Reuben.

Yeah, I know who he is.

He got us the Exit.

Aw, no.

- Oh, yes. - No.

No, no, no, no, no.

Sorry, thanks, and everything, but OK?

No.

We just do this for fun.

We're a pub band.

What do you mean, pub band?

Listen-- listen to me, fellas.

Right?

The Exit is nothing.

My band just got a tour extension to Germany.

MAN: Yeah!

And I know you know what I'm talking about.

You know what I'm talking about!

[inaudible]

Hello?

Oh, are you saying that wouldn't be fun?

Yeah?

Kate and Brendan?

Brendan?

What's up?

Uh, nothing.

Yes, thanks.

I've got to go. - Go where?

I'll see you around. Ta.

See ya. - Where are you going?

Where's he off to, now?

Hey, keep practicing, yeah?

See you later.

Let's go again.

[music playing]

Bren? Bren, you see?

You see? I'm here when you need me, son.

Need you? I won't ever need you!

Bren!

Bren, Bren, Bren, listen-- whatever you've done,

I'm here for you, all right?

Now, what exactly is the problem?

- No, I called my mom, not you! - It's all right.

Calm down.

Look, just get out of here, you--

- Hey! - Brendan!

- That's enough. - Hey!

All right.

Come on, now!

Reuben, come on.

Let's have a word outside. Come on.

Just a word. Come on.

Quickly.

Reuben, you said you trusted my judgment.

Trust it now, and just stay outside.

Well-- all right.

What are you doing here?

I'm his dad, all right?

He's my boy. - Are you behind this?

Were you with him?

Me?

No!

I was with William.

You were with William?

What do you mean, you were with William?

What's that?

What does it look like?

You're pregnant?

Reuben, why were you with William?

Nothing's going to happen, OK?

They're not going to take any action.

But this is the second time they've come to our attention,

so-- - Oh.

Yeah.

Yeah, it is.

Don't worry.

They're nice kids.

Just keep plugging away.

Thank you.

And I don't want to see you two again, OK?

- Sorry. - Yeah.

Sorry.

Did you see, um--

You did, didn't you?

You saw-- you saw him.

Yeah.

Did you talk to him?

Do you want me to shout at you here, or in the privacy

of our own home?

Right.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Come on, you two.

Thanks.

[groaning]

The red one!

Oh, god!

William?

Shh.

It's OK.

Oh-- Oh--

Oh, that-- red spot, black spot dream again.

It's OK.

Shh.

Why don't we all stay in bed today?

Sorry about Reuben.

I know.

I just wanted him to stay away.

We were getting married.

I know.

We are getting married.

Yeah.

Oh, I'll find out about the insurance today.

Our luck's gonna change.

Yeah?

Yeah.

[doorbell]

Hi, Mom.

[inaudible]

MARY: Hi.

Bonjour.

One for you. - Oh.

Thank you.

And I know [inaudible].

I know you love it.

Oh.

Great.

Cheese.

So, did you travel through the night?

With Rick? - No.

We got back yesterday. - Oh, right.

So where's Rick?

He's at the house.

What house?

The new house.

Your house. - Oh, god.

What's his number?

His number?

Mom, the house is unsafe.

Yeah, the whole bloody thing could fall down.

What's his mobile number?

Oh, no!

No, no, no!

Oh-- Sorry.

Sorry.

No, the building inspector was there when we arrived.

- What? - Mhm.

The building inspector. - When?

Yesterday.

And he told me about the--

you know?

And I said I was popping around to see you, and he said, oh,

could you tell them about the, um--

the under-- - Pinning?

Yeah.

Whatever that means.

Uh-- is much better than suspected,

and he'll be emailing you.

What?

Everything's all right now.

Everything is fine.

[music playing]

[SINGING] I've been on tenderhooks,

handing in dirty looks.

Listening tot he music, thinking about this and that.

She said that's that, I don't want to chitter chat.

Turn it down a little bit, or turn it down flat.

Pump it up, when you don't really need it.

Pump it up until you can't feel it.

Down in the pleasure center, hellbent or heaven sent.

Listen to the propaganda, listen to the--

Dad?

William.

William.

Bob?

You are never going to believe what's happened.

Never.

You know the note I left about Baldrick?

Note?

The note saying Baldrick had died?

Yes.

Well, you're never going to guess what

some sick b*stard has done.

You know I had to bury him--

for the children's sake.

Before we left.

Right.

Yeah.

Well, some b*stard has dug him up,

and put him back in the hutch.

Can you believe that?

I mean, you might expect that sort of thing in-- in Richmond.

Or even Twickenham.

But not here.

I mean-- what sort of person would do such a thing?

Bob?

Um--
