174
00:06:37,522 --> 00:06:39,899
all your best proteins,
enzymes, and nutrients
175
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:41,817
- throughout your bloodstream...
- [muffled] How was your shift?
176
00:06:41,818 --> 00:06:44,069
- ...which then repairs you
at a biological...
- That job will be good for you,
177
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:45,821
- I think, you know?
- ...and therefore
psychological level...
178
00:06:45,822 --> 00:06:47,740
- Drown out the noise.
- ...to balance out
your hormones.
179
00:06:47,741 --> 00:06:49,783
- Your cocktails
were lethal, by the way.
- Your testosterone's going.
180
00:06:49,784 --> 00:06:51,785
They have more
of a glow to them.
181
00:06:51,786 --> 00:06:53,537
- [door closes]
- It's because
you have all the--
182
00:06:53,538 --> 00:06:55,707
- [video stopping]
- What?
183
00:06:59,377 --> 00:07:00,795
[sighs]
184
00:07:04,132 --> 00:07:05,425
Alex, come here.
185
00:07:06,718 --> 00:07:09,136
Oh, death stare.
You alright?
186
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:11,430
Yeah. Dandy.
187
00:07:11,431 --> 00:07:14,642
I've got a meeting with
Marion Ottilie Chambers Bryce.
188
00:07:14,643 --> 00:07:17,728
Is that two first names
or three last names?
189
00:07:17,729 --> 00:07:19,104
She's chair of
the Women's Lit Awards.
190
00:07:19,105 --> 00:07:20,898
I'm gonna try and get her
to consider Charlotte
191
00:07:20,899 --> 00:07:23,984
for a Lifetime Achievement,
keep Livid happy.
192
00:07:23,985 --> 00:07:26,946
Uh, my dad used to design
her dad's book covers.
193
00:07:26,947 --> 00:07:29,907
We found their office cocaine
when we were teenagers,
194
00:07:29,908 --> 00:07:31,909
in a box of whips
under a chiffonier.
195
00:07:31,910 --> 00:07:33,619
I don't know what that is.
196
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:34,745
It's a sideboard.
197
00:07:34,746 --> 00:07:36,288
Stop pretending
not to be middle class.
198
00:07:36,289 --> 00:07:37,748
Any joy getting hold
of Malcolm?
199
00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:39,333
No, he's on his dopey book tour.
200
00:07:39,334 --> 00:07:41,335
- I keep getting
his out of office.
- Just stay on it.
201
00:07:41,336 --> 00:07:43,754
Maybe suggest
taking him to dinner.
202
00:07:43,755 --> 00:07:45,422
- You wanna watch him eat? Ugh.
- [knocking]
203
00:07:45,423 --> 00:07:47,007
Uh, Rachel Lash is here.
204
00:07:47,008 --> 00:07:48,801
Shall I offer her a muffin
from Waitrose?
205
00:07:48,802 --> 00:07:50,302
We've just got
Waitrose muffins.
206
00:07:50,303 --> 00:07:51,595
Just pop her
in the meeting room.
207
00:07:51,596 --> 00:07:52,639
Thanks.
208
00:07:53,598 --> 00:07:54,932
- Why is he still here?
- Ooh.
209
00:07:54,933 --> 00:07:56,350
- What?
- Um...
210
00:07:56,351 --> 00:07:57,602
Nothing. Nothing.
211
00:07:58,979 --> 00:08:01,313
The next intern fell through
so we had to extend.
212
00:08:01,314 --> 00:08:02,940
Ugh, Christ.
213
00:08:02,941 --> 00:08:04,358
Who's Rachel Lash?
214
00:08:04,359 --> 00:08:05,943
Oh, the psychologist.
She's got a column
215
00:08:05,944 --> 00:08:07,236
in the Times,
everyone's after her.
216
00:08:07,237 --> 00:08:09,613
Okay, I'll pop by
and say hello, shall I?
217
00:08:09,614 --> 00:08:11,615
Just shower a bit of gold dust.
218
00:08:11,616 --> 00:08:13,117
Yeah, but if you
don't know her, there's--
219
00:08:13,118 --> 00:08:14,369
No, I do know her.
220
00:08:15,537 --> 00:08:16,954
Okay.
221
00:08:16,955 --> 00:08:18,498
[softly] You don't know her.
222
00:08:20,625 --> 00:08:22,794
[whispering]
Rachel. Rachel Lash.
223
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:27,297
[Alex] I can't remember
when I was as excited by a book.
224
00:08:27,298 --> 00:08:29,466
Like, what got-- What got
you into this whole area?
225
00:08:29,467 --> 00:08:31,010
Actually, I was doing my column
226
00:08:31,011 --> 00:08:33,053
on the decline in sperm count
for middle-aged men.
227
00:08:33,054 --> 00:08:34,513
Oh, skinny jeans, right?
228
00:08:34,514 --> 00:08:36,098
- Partly to blame.
- [laughing]
229
00:08:36,099 --> 00:08:37,474
Maybe we get to ban them.
230
00:08:37,475 --> 00:08:39,226
A lot of men reached out
full of anxiety
231
00:08:39,227 --> 00:08:40,853
about their biological clocks
232
00:08:40,854 --> 00:08:43,230
and this very new male situation
of having it all.
233
00:08:43,231 --> 00:08:45,315
Yeah. Yeah, what-- What--
What is that?
234
00:08:45,316 --> 00:08:47,484
And so, I was seeing this guy.
235
00:08:47,485 --> 00:08:50,487
We-- we just broke up and
he's with someone else now...
236
00:08:50,488 --> 00:08:52,614
- [knocking]
- ...who's completely
wrong for him,
237
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:55,075
just to, I can only assume,
have a baby.
238
00:08:55,076 --> 00:08:58,537
- You know, he's like 47 and...
- Rachel, such a pleasure.
239
00:08:58,538 --> 00:09:01,665
...she's gotta be, like,
26 or something.
240
00:09:01,666 --> 00:09:03,834
You know, and thick.
Like, Middlemarch thick.
241
00:09:03,835 --> 00:09:05,669
- I mean, what do they
even talk about?
- Alex?
242
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:07,337
Sorry. Rachel,
this is Sam Laville.
243
00:09:07,338 --> 00:09:09,006
Sam, it's Rachel Lash.
244
00:09:09,007 --> 00:09:10,549
I know. Big fan.
245
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:12,926
- [Sam and Alex chuckle]
- [Alex] It's tough, isn't it?
246
00:09:12,927 --> 00:09:15,054
I mean, men seem
to want everything
and they give so little.
247
00:09:15,055 --> 00:09:16,681
I only have an hour.
248
00:09:18,433 --> 00:09:19,434
[sighs]
249
00:09:20,852 --> 00:09:21,894
[door slams shut]
250
00:09:21,895 --> 00:09:23,104
[phone chimes]
251
00:09:27,358 --> 00:09:29,193
- [door opens]
- [Sam] Please don't use
your work meetings
252
00:09:29,194 --> 00:09:31,278
as therapy sessions.
It's not fair.
253
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:33,113
- What?
- You get to fuck up
and just go home.
254
00:09:33,114 --> 00:09:35,282
- You didn't even know
who she was an hour ago.
- [Sam] I absolutely did
255
00:09:35,283 --> 00:09:36,533
- know who she was!
- [Alex] No, you didn't.
256
00:09:36,534 --> 00:09:37,659
And I don't know why you
can't just let me
257
00:09:37,660 --> 00:09:38,911
meet a client without
busting in on me.
258
00:09:38,912 --> 00:09:40,037
[Sam] You already lost us
one bestseller.
259
00:09:40,038 --> 00:09:41,371
- [Alex] What?!
- [Sam] Yes!
260
00:09:41,372 --> 00:09:43,457
Also, I don't just go home.
I fucking wake up
261
00:09:43,458 --> 00:09:45,751
- thinking about this job.
- Yeah, but it's not your name
on the door, is it?
262
00:09:45,752 --> 00:09:47,087
Why'd you tell Patrick
about Lars?
263
00:09:48,213 --> 00:09:49,922
- What?
- Well, he thought
that meant we were done,
264
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:51,715
and now he's back
with fucking Cara, so--
265
00:09:51,716 --> 00:09:54,593
I heard about Cara,
and then I told him about Lars.
266
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:56,763
It was a "Fuck you, she's having
a great time anyway."
267
00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:59,389
And Patrick will never know
what he wants.
268
00:09:59,390 --> 00:10:02,560
He's a man-child.
Save yourself.
269
00:10:06,064 --> 00:10:07,273
[doorbell ringing]
270
00:10:09,651 --> 00:10:11,401
Hey! [laughing]
271
00:10:11,402 --> 00:10:13,612
- Do you like carbonara?
- [groaning]
272
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:14,905
- Oh.
- I'm joking.
273
00:10:14,906 --> 00:10:16,907
Love anything cooked for me.
Big fan.
274
00:10:16,908 --> 00:10:19,076
- [chuckles]
- Come in. [chuckles]
275
00:10:19,077 --> 00:10:20,327
I mean, I love Sam.
276
00:10:20,328 --> 00:10:21,745
She threw me a bone
with the job,
277
00:10:21,746 --> 00:10:23,247
you know, she really did.
I owe her.
278
00:10:23,248 --> 00:10:25,249
I mean, I fucked up
the meeting, you know.
279
00:10:25,250 --> 00:10:26,667
- How'd you do that?
- [scoffs]
280
00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:28,253
It's just,
I was preoccupied with...
281
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:31,798
Doesn't matter but, like,
you know, the thing is...
282
00:10:32,674 --> 00:10:34,258
she doesn't trust me,
not really.
283
00:10:34,259 --> 00:10:36,301
And now, she's got
a reason to not trust me.
284
00:10:36,302 --> 00:10:38,345
And I-- like, I've got
great instincts.
285
00:10:38,346 --> 00:10:40,681
But I don't-- I don't know how
to give her what she wants
286
00:10:40,682 --> 00:10:42,141
and get what I want.
287
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:43,976
Like, how do I get what I want?
288
00:10:43,977 --> 00:10:45,644
She doesn't give a fuck
what I want, by the way.
289
00:10:45,645 --> 00:10:47,980
Maybe you shouldn't be
thinking you owe her.
290
00:10:47,981 --> 00:10:50,607
That's the wrong dynamic.
She needs you.
291
00:10:50,608 --> 00:10:52,317
She'd never say it,
but she does.
292
00:10:52,318 --> 00:10:53,610
Just be honest with her.
293
00:10:53,611 --> 00:10:55,112
Otherwise,
you might find yourself
294
00:10:55,113 --> 00:10:56,823
at your mother's deathbed
questioning your life choices.
295
00:10:57,824 --> 00:11:00,785
- You wanna try this?
- Uh, yeah. Mm.
296
00:11:06,791 --> 00:11:08,333
Oh, wow.
297
00:11:08,334 --> 00:11:09,626
You're talented.
298
00:11:09,627 --> 00:11:11,128
- [chuckles]
- Yeah, that's gorgeous.
299
00:11:11,129 --> 00:11:13,964
- You're gorgeous.
- [laughing] Oh, God, no.
300
00:11:13,965 --> 00:11:16,341
- I stink of garlic now.
- Oh, there's no garlic in it.
301
00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:17,843
Oh, really? Well, something.
302
00:11:17,844 --> 00:11:19,803
What kind of herbs
are you using there?
303
00:11:19,804 --> 00:11:21,639
Is that-- Is that thyme, or...
304
00:11:22,891 --> 00:11:24,224
What is that?
305
00:11:24,225 --> 00:11:26,226
Your mother's gonna hate me
for saying this,
306
00:11:26,227 --> 00:11:27,728
but my son dropped out of uni,
307
00:11:27,729 --> 00:11:29,062
and it was the best thing
he ever did.
308
00:11:29,063 --> 00:11:30,647
- Oh.
- What's he do now?
309
00:11:30,648 --> 00:11:32,191
- Ruari's going back to uni.
- He set up
310
00:11:32,192 --> 00:11:35,360
this investment business
with a finance guy from NY.
311
00:11:35,361 --> 00:11:37,571
I mean, he's very happy.
312
00:11:37,572 --> 00:11:39,156
- What are you interested in?
- Comedy.
313
00:11:39,157 --> 00:11:40,490
He's got a job at a bar.
314
00:11:40,491 --> 00:11:42,534
I have a friend
who's a stand-up.
315
00:11:42,535 --> 00:11:44,995
He's depressed and broke.
316
00:11:44,996 --> 00:11:46,747
But he does get
a lot of pussy.
317
00:11:46,748 --> 00:11:47,749
[Michael chuckles]
318
00:11:48,249 --> 00:11:50,418
- Sorry.
- It's important to, uh...
319
00:11:52,003 --> 00:11:53,421
keep all your options open.
320
00:11:55,173 --> 00:11:57,841
- Yeah.
- Um, this is delicious, Michael.
321
00:11:57,842 --> 00:11:59,177
[Ruari] Yeah, it's good.
322
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,429
[Michael]
Ruari's a good kid.
323
00:12:02,430 --> 00:12:04,389
I mean, I know you're worried,
but you're doing fine.
324
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:06,266
Aw. Well, it was great
having you there.
325
00:12:06,267 --> 00:12:07,268
Well...
326
00:12:08,436 --> 00:12:09,937
I'm good at that kind of thing.
327
00:12:09,938 --> 00:12:11,605
I mean, I'm good
at lots of things.
328
00:12:11,606 --> 00:12:12,856
- [laughing]
- But, uh,
329
00:12:12,857 --> 00:12:15,525
family, I'm really good at.
330
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:18,487
- Well, thank you.
- You don't have to thank me.
331
00:12:18,488 --> 00:12:20,864
My mother is dead,
my children are raised.
332
00:12:20,865 --> 00:12:24,202
I have time and I'd like
to spend it with you.
333
00:12:24,911 --> 00:12:26,120
Lean on me.
334
00:12:26,871 --> 00:12:28,455
[sighs]
335
00:12:28,456 --> 00:12:30,458
- Mm.
- Mm.
336
00:12:32,043 --> 00:12:33,044
[kiss smacking]
337
00:12:34,796 --> 00:12:35,797
Mm.
338
00:12:36,798 --> 00:12:38,424
- [both chuckle]
- Oh.
339
00:12:39,592 --> 00:12:40,593
[sighs]
340
00:12:45,098 --> 00:12:47,224
- [Michael moans]
- Uh...
341
00:12:47,225 --> 00:12:49,434
Oh, um, is it okay-- sorry.
342
00:12:49,435 --> 00:12:51,311
Is it, um-- Let me just--
343
00:12:51,312 --> 00:12:54,231
Can we just take it
a bit slower? [chuckles]
344
00:12:54,232 --> 00:12:55,983
I know that sounds ridiculous
'cause you've seen
345
00:12:55,984 --> 00:12:57,985
my vagina up close, but I just--
346
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:01,738
I think this could be good.
You know? Mature.
347
00:13:01,739 --> 00:13:03,282
And I'm not just saying that
because you're mature.
348
00:13:03,283 --> 00:13:06,661
"Start slow to move fast,"
my mother used to say.
349
00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:12,082
Yeah. I mean, that-- Yeah.
Let's, um--
350
00:13:12,083 --> 00:13:15,086
- [chuckles]
- Uh... [chuckles nervously]
351
00:13:18,172 --> 00:13:20,717
- Aw.
- Oh, and don't worry about Sam.
352
00:13:21,592 --> 00:13:24,304
You'll find a way to keep
her happy and do your thing.
353
00:13:25,179 --> 00:13:27,347
You're a woman, goddammit.
354
00:13:27,348 --> 00:13:28,933
[chuckles]
355
00:13:35,773 --> 00:13:37,191
[shudders softly]
356
00:13:37,775 --> 00:13:40,528
[♪ soft, upbeat music playing]
357
00:13:41,612 --> 00:13:43,030
[Ruari grunting softly]
358
00:13:43,031 --> 00:13:45,450
Can I leave a message
for Rachel Lash, please?
359
00:13:46,451 --> 00:13:48,161
- What's wrong?
- Nothing. Nothing.
360
00:13:50,330 --> 00:13:52,789
Uh, yeah, just tell her,
um, Alex Shaw called.
361
00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:55,167
I'm-- I'm gonna send her
an invite to a book event.
362
00:13:55,168 --> 00:13:56,626
It's this afternoon.
363
00:13:56,627 --> 00:13:57,628
Thank you.
364
00:13:58,629 --> 00:14:00,339
- Is there something wrong
with your testicles?
- No!
365
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:02,216
- No, Mum. No.
- [Alex] Sorry.
366
00:14:02,967 --> 00:14:04,968
This is fun, isn't it?
367
00:14:04,969 --> 00:14:06,720
Heading to our jobs together.
368
00:14:06,721 --> 00:14:08,514
Have a great day
at work, dear.
369
00:14:10,475 --> 00:14:12,476
[air brakes hissing]
370
00:14:12,477 --> 00:14:14,145
I... love you.
371
00:14:16,064 --> 00:14:17,565
[knocking]
372
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:21,986
- [bus doors closing]
- Asshole.
373
00:14:28,993 --> 00:14:30,161
[Alex] Hey.
374
00:14:32,997 --> 00:14:34,414
[Rachel] I'm surprised
you're a fan.
375
00:14:34,415 --> 00:14:37,752
Oh, well. I mean,
let's just say I'm fascinated.
376
00:14:38,586 --> 00:14:41,421
And, uh, you know,
I thought, Rachel Lash
377
00:14:41,422 --> 00:14:43,173
has just written
about men who work
378
00:14:43,174 --> 00:14:46,009
in female-dominated industries,
so I thought, you know,
379
00:14:46,010 --> 00:14:48,845
- it might spark an
idea for a column.
- [cheering and applause]
380
00:14:48,846 --> 00:14:50,556
Oh, there he is.
381
00:14:52,892 --> 00:14:56,353
But actually,
I-- I just wanted to say sorry
382
00:14:56,354 --> 00:14:58,146
about our meeting last week.
383
00:14:58,147 --> 00:15:01,525
You know, I was obsessing about
another failed relationship
384
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:05,404
and the state of my
far-from-ideal sixth decade.
385
00:15:05,405 --> 00:15:09,074
- But, uh...
- "Maskiel climaxed lustily
386
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:12,202
"and with a long doleful cry.
387
00:15:12,203 --> 00:15:14,455
"Goblin seed was gold...
388
00:15:15,456 --> 00:15:17,542
"and soon the sheets
were sparkling.
389
00:15:18,709 --> 00:15:21,211
"Deanna lay back
and almost bathed in it.
390
00:15:21,212 --> 00:15:23,880
Morning came too soon."
391
00:15:23,881 --> 00:15:26,633
[snapping and applause]
392
00:15:26,634 --> 00:15:29,052
Most romantasy writers
use a pen name.
393
00:15:29,053 --> 00:15:32,431
Malcolm is one
of the brave few who's out.
394
00:15:32,432 --> 00:15:36,143
Mm. And yet, I feel he'd make
a wonderful Susan.
395
00:15:36,144 --> 00:15:37,727
[both laughing softly]
396
00:15:37,728 --> 00:15:39,230
[Malcolm]
...or a Deanna in their lives.
397
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:44,734
She couldn't keep away.
How wonderful to see you.
398
00:15:44,735 --> 00:15:45,987
Great talk.
399
00:15:47,113 --> 00:15:50,740
Um, I noticed you, uh,
slightly evaded the question
400
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:52,909
about your follow-up book.
How's it going?
401
00:15:52,910 --> 00:15:54,619
It's going masterfully.
402
00:15:54,620 --> 00:15:56,830
[Alex] Second books
are my specialty.
403
00:15:56,831 --> 00:15:58,415
You know, I know how
to take a small idea
404
00:15:58,416 --> 00:15:59,749
and turn it into many.
405
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:02,002
I don't do small ideas.
406
00:16:02,003 --> 00:16:04,629
Of course.
How long's the-- the book tour?
407
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:06,798
I thought maybe
we could get dinner
408
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:08,134
or something when you're done.
409
00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:10,094
What's in it for me?
410
00:16:11,179 --> 00:16:12,597
Free steak? [laughing]
411
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:18,186
Fawning compliments,
tail between legs?
412
00:16:20,605 --> 00:16:23,524
Make it lunch. Le Petit Veau.
413
00:16:24,609 --> 00:16:26,277
Okay. Oh. [chuckles]
414
00:16:28,446 --> 00:16:30,156
Oh. [laughing]
415
00:16:31,157 --> 00:16:33,116
- DM me.
- I will.
416
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:35,119
[people chattering]
417
00:16:36,787 --> 00:16:38,789
[people chattering]
418
00:16:40,625 --> 00:16:42,459
[Alex] She loves me now.
419
00:16:42,460 --> 00:16:45,170
Michael, look.
She's-- She's texted me twice.
420
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:47,130
- Oh. [laughing]
- Isn't that good?
421
00:16:47,131 --> 00:16:50,133
- Frank, how's he getting on?
- Oh, he's a natural.
422
00:16:50,134 --> 00:16:52,344
The place is gonna be in great
hands when we go to Ibiza.
423
00:16:52,345 --> 00:16:54,971
You going to Ibiza?
Love Ibiza.
424
00:16:54,972 --> 00:16:56,973
Yeah, our 10th wedding
anniversary, baby.
425
00:16:56,974 --> 00:16:59,059
- [Michael chuckles]
- Oh, you wait till you see
the villa that I've booked.
426
00:16:59,060 --> 00:17:00,685
Oh, rock and roll.
427
00:17:00,686 --> 00:17:02,480
Apparently,
Billy Joel died there.
428
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:05,190
Billy Joel is still alive.
429
00:17:05,191 --> 00:17:06,650
Someone definitely died there.
430
00:17:06,651 --> 00:17:09,528
Ruari, Ruari, come on now.
Thank you. Okay.
431
00:17:09,529 --> 00:17:11,530
These will blow your heads off.
432
00:17:11,531 --> 00:17:12,698
[Alex] Thank you, honey.
433
00:17:13,824 --> 00:17:15,200
- He likes you.
- Yeah?
434
00:17:15,201 --> 00:17:16,660
Yeah. I straight up asked him,
435
00:17:16,661 --> 00:17:18,995
and he said... [grunting]
436
00:17:18,996 --> 00:17:20,872
- Wow.
- [both laughing]
437
00:17:20,873 --> 00:17:23,000
- [♪ muffled dance music playing]
- [Alex] Aw!
438
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:26,712
- Just like in the movies.
- [both laughing]
439
00:17:29,674 --> 00:17:31,174
Why don't you come
to mine on Sunday,
440
00:17:31,175 --> 00:17:34,512
we can have a sauna,
get hot together.
441
00:17:36,347 --> 00:17:37,348
Or...
442
00:17:38,266 --> 00:17:39,517
you could come to mine?
443
00:17:40,518 --> 00:17:42,519
- I'll cook for you.
- Oh.
444
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:43,896
Return all the favors.
445
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:48,775
- [bus rumbling]
- Oh, there's a bus!
446
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:50,777
- There's a bus!
Let's go, let's catch it.
- Really?
447
00:17:50,778 --> 00:17:52,238
- Okay.
- Front seat, get the front seat.
448
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:54,781
[Alex chuckles] Whoo!
449
00:17:54,782 --> 00:17:57,451
[♪ dance music playing]
450
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:03,082
[phone ringing]
451
00:18:05,209 --> 00:18:07,711
- Hey.
- [Sam] I just saw
"lunch with Malcolm"
452
00:18:07,712 --> 00:18:09,129
go in the diary.
453
00:18:09,130 --> 00:18:10,964
- [Alex] Yeah.
- [whispering] I got the horn.
454
00:18:10,965 --> 00:18:13,758
[Alex] And I signed Rachel.
Nearly.
455
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:15,385
I was gonna tell you Monday,
but then you decided
456
00:18:15,386 --> 00:18:16,928
to work-call me on a Sunday.
457
00:18:16,929 --> 00:18:18,888
Yeah, glad I did.
458
00:18:18,889 --> 00:18:21,057
Enjoy lunch. You cooking?
459
00:18:21,058 --> 00:18:22,851
[Alex] Yeah, I've got Michael
and the family coming over.
460
00:18:22,852 --> 00:18:25,770
- [Sam] Ooh, what are you making?
- Uh, uh, well, barbecued prawns,
461
00:18:25,771 --> 00:18:29,107
and then a ham
and a white sauce.
462
00:18:29,108 --> 00:18:30,734
[Sam] A what sauce?
463
00:18:30,735 --> 00:18:32,569
A white sauce.
My mum used to make it.
464
00:18:32,570 --> 00:18:34,279
Mm, sounds flavorful.
465
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,781
- Okay, well, that was it.
- [Alex] Wait.
466
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:38,825
- I want you
to trust me more, Sam.
- [Sam] What?
467
00:18:38,826 --> 00:18:41,077
I do trust you, you moron.
468
00:18:41,078 --> 00:18:43,163
No, but, I mean, like,
I want autonomy.
469
00:18:43,164 --> 00:18:45,582
I wanna feel like you trust
that I-- I know what I'm doing.
470
00:18:45,583 --> 00:18:47,168
- [knife thuds]
- I wanna be your partner.
471
00:18:47,918 --> 00:18:50,503
- [Frank] Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
- [game playing on tablet]
472
00:18:50,504 --> 00:18:52,088
[Alex]
Hello, did you hear me?
473
00:18:52,089 --> 00:18:55,008
[softly] You are
such a cheeky bitch.
474
00:18:55,009 --> 00:18:57,594
- [Alex] Why?
- You lose us a big client--
475
00:18:57,595 --> 00:18:59,471
[Alex] Oh, I'm-- I'm gonna
get you Malcolm back.
476
00:18:59,472 --> 00:19:01,264
Against all my vagina's
instincts, I'm--
477
00:19:01,265 --> 00:19:02,932
[Sam] Manage to salvage
a meeting
478
00:19:02,933 --> 00:19:05,477
that you fucked up
in the first place,
479
00:19:05,478 --> 00:19:07,312
and now you think
you deserve to be partner
480
00:19:07,313 --> 00:19:10,482
in a business I spent
30 years hard graft building?
481
00:19:10,483 --> 00:19:11,942
The caucasity!
482
00:19:12,777 --> 00:19:14,110
Well, junior partner?
483
00:19:14,111 --> 00:19:15,780
Enjoy your white sauce.
484
00:19:20,826 --> 00:19:23,078
- [phone thuds]
- [doorbell rings]
485
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:24,829
- [Alex] Oh, that goes...
- [Maggie] Thank you, darling.
486
00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:26,581
- [Delly] Okay, ready to go?
- Oh, is-- is this
the brake here?
487
00:19:26,582 --> 00:19:28,500
- Lift it up?
- [Delly] Yeah, yeah, yeah,
just lift it up with your foot.
488
00:19:28,501 --> 00:19:30,710
[Alex] Oh, okay, yeah. Got it.
489
00:19:30,711 --> 00:19:31,795
Okay.
490
00:19:31,796 --> 00:19:33,713
Hey! Hi. [chuckles]
491
00:19:33,714 --> 00:19:34,840
[chuckles] Hi.
492
00:19:36,175 --> 00:19:38,635
Do you always bring family
on your dates?
493
00:19:38,636 --> 00:19:41,137
[laughing] I can't believe
I didn't tell you.
494
00:19:41,138 --> 00:19:43,348
But, uh, short answer, no.
495
00:19:43,349 --> 00:19:46,810
Hey, everyone, this is, uh,
this is Michael.
496
00:19:46,811 --> 00:19:48,853
Michael,
this is my sister, Delly.
497
00:19:48,854 --> 00:19:50,730
- Hello, Michael.
- [Alex] Uh, Wally.
498
00:19:50,731 --> 00:19:51,981
- Maggie.
- Hello, Michael.
499
00:19:51,982 --> 00:19:53,316
- Where's the-- where's the baby?
- Hello, Michael.
500
00:19:53,317 --> 00:19:54,943
Sleeping.
Do not approach the vehicle.
501
00:19:54,944 --> 00:19:58,071
I feel like royalty
wheeling around in this thing.
502
00:19:58,072 --> 00:19:59,489
Show 'em your wave.
503
00:19:59,490 --> 00:20:01,908
[laughter]
504
00:20:01,909 --> 00:20:03,827
Okay, the pills,
505
00:20:03,828 --> 00:20:05,537
house key, spare glucometer
for Mum,
506
00:20:05,538 --> 00:20:08,665
extra dressing if her toe
starts to... seep.
507
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:09,874
And, uh, Dad's iPad's in here.
508
00:20:09,875 --> 00:20:11,084
His glasses are
in his coat pocket.
509
00:20:11,085 --> 00:20:12,877

he shat all over the corridor
674
00:26:07,608 --> 00:26:08,941
when he was drunk.
675
00:26:08,942 --> 00:26:10,568
And everyone was fucking
mortified for him,
676
00:26:10,569 --> 00:26:12,528
but he just-- he just
cleaned it up
677
00:26:12,529 --> 00:26:14,363
and kept going to class.
And then after a while,
678
00:26:14,364 --> 00:26:16,032
everyone forgot about it.
679
00:26:16,033 --> 00:26:18,576
Shit doesn't stick.
680
00:26:18,577 --> 00:26:22,039
It dries and-- and then
you can just brush it off.
681
00:26:23,957 --> 00:26:25,333
I hate being a man.
682
00:26:25,334 --> 00:26:26,876
Oh, Ruari,
please don't say that.
683
00:26:26,877 --> 00:26:29,212
You have to be strong,
but not too strong,
684
00:26:29,213 --> 00:26:30,963
'cause then you're an alpha.
685
00:26:30,964 --> 00:26:32,548
And if you're an alpha,
you're toxic.
686
00:26:32,549 --> 00:26:36,135
And if you're toxic, just,
girls fucking hate you.
687
00:26:36,136 --> 00:26:37,720
But if we try and express
our feelings,
688
00:26:37,721 --> 00:26:39,347
we're weak and needy.
689
00:26:39,348 --> 00:26:42,267
If you send flowers to a girl,
we're just love-bombing her.
690
00:26:43,393 --> 00:26:45,771
If we can't get it up,
then we're broken.
691
00:26:47,397 --> 00:26:48,899
It'll get easier.
692
00:26:49,858 --> 00:26:50,901
