In first place, as usual, it's the team with no name. Thank you, morons. Thank

you, cretins. And not forgetting you simpletons, of course.

Kinesiology is the study of movement.

Why are you here exactly?

This can't keep happening. Tony was a replacement for Francis.

Who was a replacement for Peanut?

This is Molly.

47's in the bag.

What's 47?

Five more times and that'll be an entire calendar year.

Miss Lawrence here is very excited about it. Aren't you, Lawrence?

You know I am.

Molly, something else. Why don't you just ask her out? Talking to women comes

naturally to you, and it most definitely does not come naturally to me.

It's not exactly healthy, all of this. I'm winning that bloody quiz every week

for a year, and neither Tony nor anybody else is going to stop me. What happens

if you do win tonight?

Are you going to go for two years in row three? Like, where does it end? You

don't have to be right all the time.

You've got more going for you, Mitchell.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Thank you. Thank you for coming.

Poor Kevin.

Gone so young.

Yes, that's true.

I want you to know that he was a great boss.

Great man altogether.

It's nice of you to say so.

Not the worst of them.

Must be so hard for you, Liz.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry.

Listen.

Try not to dwell on the whole box -in -the -ground business.

What? Things could be worse. Look at Tibet.

They have a thing there called sky burial.

The body gets left out on the side of a mountain for the birds to pick clean.

Something to do with Buddhism.

Circle of life. What have you.

At least in this country, Kevin will get the decomposing piece.

Well, how's the removal?

Ah, you know, kind of morbid. Did you get much done at the library?

Yeah, I learned that your knee bone's connected to your thigh bone. Good.

This isn't all junk, is it, Lawrence?

What?

Certainly not. This is a lifetime's accumulation of irreplaceable cultural

Irreplaceable? I won't argue, yes.

Do you want a cup of tea? No, I'm heading off home.

Last night with the folks.

Ah, look at you. You're like a wee birdie bride.

Imagine, Lawrence.

Living in sin?

If I'm tomorrow, I'll be your living gentleman friend.

You're going to be so much more than my living gentleman friend.

Yeah? You'll be that fella that pays the bills, too.

All right, Fred is there.

That might not be the move for us.

Yep, needs a bit of work.

That's nice, Paddy. What's that?

Winter symphony.

Remember that. Hello?

We're in here, son.

In the spare room.

Spare room?

You're painting over me already.

Oh, relax the cocks. We're just trying a few things out.

So... Come on, Vera. We can get out of the way and let him finish packing the

rest of his belongings.

Well, that show about the fat people jogging is on.

Make sure you take everything now, Lawrence.

So, you know, you don't have to keep coming back.

Thanks, Dad.

He's gone, Paddy. He's gone.

He's actually gone.

Look at the whole place to ourselves.

This is a good day for him, too. That's the main thing.

Oh, absolutely.

He'll be all right, Paddy, won't he?

He's not going to China, Barry. He's going to Mali.

If we all stand on our roofs, we can wave to each other.

It is a big move, huh?

Exciting? It is exciting, yeah.

I have to say, between the two of us, I didn't think I'd be the last man

standing. Imagine, Adam Lynn's jealous of me. Well, I should live to feed the

day.

You could say something there, but I'll let you have that one.

Too kind.

Oh, hang on. Here we are.

Bring in a second.

All right.

They did a lovely spread, Maura. Yes, they did.

I'm sorry, that was a stupid thing to say. No, no. It was, it was. I'm sorry

was stupid.

I'm so sorry about everything. I know, good Lord, thanks.

Maura.

Oh, Lawrence.

How's it going?

How's it going?

Sorry to interrupt, this will only take a minute. It's business related.

It's OK, Graham. Stay.

I was just wondering, have you given any thought to what's next for the flick

shack now that Kevin's gone to his reward?

Because I have some ideas. A lot of them, actually, if you'd like to hear

Maybe we could sit down, chew the facts, see... Excuse me?

No, I don't mean now.

Excuse me, this woman has just lost her husband and I don't think... It's all

right, Graham.

It's all right, I can deal with this.

Please, just give us a minute.

Go on.

I'll join you when I'm done here.

Go on.

That one of the nephews, yeah?

God help him.

Looks like he's already gone past denial into anger.

What? The Kubler -Ross model of grief, the five stages.

No?

Lawrence, listen to me. Yes.

Are you listening?

I am, yes.

You understand that Kevin ran several businesses around town, businesses that

make money.

I'll be taking them over as soon as I've got my head together.

And I will be very busy. Of course.

Far too busy, for example, to waste time on a video shop that makes about 40

quid a week.

And certainly far too busy to waste time dealing with a man I can't stand the

sight of.

That's you, Lawrence.

Do you understand me? That's you.

You're the man I can't stand the sight of.

Go on.

I'll be closing the video shop as soon as possible.

I'd appreciate if you'd go in first thing tomorrow morning and remove any

personal crap you might have lying around.

You're fired, Lawrence.

Fired.

You take care of yourself now.

Cheers. Thanks.

Oh, it's a bit rubbish.

No, it's great.

Great. Very consistent. Same wise.

Hey, you all right there?

You know, it's getting better again.

Aisling, I didn't know you'd be here.

Half day.

Teacher's meeting.

Well, I swear you were just back from space.

Come here, you. Send him to that banner.

I want to get a picture.

Ah, is that the best smile you can manage?

I know, we'll do a signing ceremony, like a footballer. A signing? Remember,

talked about putting some of the utilities in your name. We could sign up

Why, where are you off to?

Ed. Is that right, with who?

People. Do these people have names?

There's no interest in the Oscars this much.

Say cohabitation.

Cohabitation.

Are you taking part?

Ah, damn, I thought we had him. What are you doing here on quiz night?

Be the special circumstances.

Drink?

Water.

Okay, peeps, here we go. Round three, question one.

Who sang the theme song from the movie Grief? Frankie Valli. Adam, I lost my

job. What?

Morris closing the flick shack.

Sorry to hear about that, man. That's awful news.

What did Molly say?

Nothing. I haven't told her.

I tried to tell her, but I couldn't.

She's got this plan, the plan.

I'm supposed to be keeping us afloat until she's finished her paramedic

training. Yeah, I know about the plan.

Yeah, Phil, I couldn't tell her that the whole thing's in tatters because I lost

my job before I'd even moved in.

But I've been thinking.

Really?

I have been thinking.

And all I have to do is get another job before she finds out that the shack is

shut. Oh, Jesus.

The plan will continue as if nothing ever happened.

That way, my bad news story will have a happy ending.

Yeah, because jobs are so easy to come by.

I think I saw something about that in the news. Yeah.

And how will she ever find out that the flick shack is closed?

Thanks. In a vast metropolis like this, it could be years before she gets wind

of it. What is the thing of your second name? Goodman's daughter. First of all,

any job will do. It's not like I was pulling in fixed figures.

And B,

she's out of town most days on her course.

When she's not in her class, she's stuck inside studying.

I'm not saying I won't have to do a lot of lying and sneaking around.

Of course, that's a given.

Yeah.

Lauren, this is insane.

No. Putting her under even more pressure when she's already up to her neck, that

would be insane.

Dashing her dreams just when they're getting going, that would be insane.

Tearing out the plan and writing out... ..a

whole new one.

That would be insane.

Okay, I just want to put on the record here that I am 100 % against this

ridiculous idea.

If that's what you want, I'll have to look to you.

Do you get many job applications here? I don't need any lounge boys at the

moment. Adam, Adam, I wouldn't work here.

I just need to fill out a CV.

Yes, of course. I can help you with that.

Thanks.

Now go home before you get a taste for it again.

A taste for what?

Okay, moving on.

This?

This I could take or leave.

Question three.

In what year was the Battle of Clontarf held?

I know that sounds wrong.

In what year did the Battle of Clontarf kick off?

1014. What?

1014.

Look at you. You going dancing?

Yeah, making a few bars and mint.

Mint? I haven't been there since it was called.

Mantra? No.

Jewel? No.

Secrets? That's the one.

What are you up to yourself?

A quiet glass of wine.

A few master chefs recorded.

That sounded a little tragic, didn't it?

It does a bit, yeah.

Sweet Jesus.

Here, Tara. I knew this was a bad idea. It's not normally this dead.

Tell you what. You drink, I have a bop. If it doesn't pick up after that, we can

all go back to mine at the karaoke.

Promise? Yeah.

Go on, sir. Enjoy yourself.

I'll be here.

Thanks, Dad.

Can I get a large whiskey, please?

Hiya.

Hiya.

Chris. Adam. How's the farm? Good.

It's not a great crowd in tonight, is it? No, I've seen it busier, all right.

People are staying at home to drink these days.

Business is bad all over. Tell me about it. It's just not the same thing,

though. You said it.

No toddy for a start.

Huh? They might as well be buck naked, half of them. Is that right?

It's not like it was in our day.

Half of them would be in duplicate.

Or a dick.

There's two prospects now.

Really? I'm telling you.

They're banging low self -esteem off him.

All right, what do you think? We'll cruise on over. A couple of fresh

No. No, you're right.

You're right. I'll go first.

No drinks. You follow on in a few minutes. No.

Lone Wolf, is it?

Yes.

All right.

I'm going in.

Wish me luck.

No.

Same again, please.

Good morning.

Hiya.

Molly, I want to apologise. I shouldn't have left you on your own last night.

I wasn't on my own. Ashley came back.

She made me watch Glee.

Now I feel even worse.

You step into the shower once you've had your OJ, and by the time you go out,

I'll have a nice cooked breakfast ready.

Oh, I feel like a princess.

How would you like your eggs?

Scrambled or boiled?

Scrambled, please.

I don't know how to do scrambled.

Then why did you offer me scrambled?

It was a bluff.

Boiled is fine.

The ring won't come on. I turned it off.

Oh, you have to flip the switch at the wall?

Where would I find the saucepan?

How about I make breakfast?

Good

morning.

Sorry, I'm not a maniac or anything. I'm just a friend of herself.

Just for the record, I'm not a maniac or anything. It's exactly the sort of

thing maniacs say.

I'm suffering there.

We bet you.

Can I get you a glass of water?

Yeah, sure.

Maybe a wee tablet?

There you go. Thank you.

You're welcome.

Are you making coffee?

Yeah.

Do you know what's a brilliant start to any day?

Enlighten me.

Bacon. Egg.

Look of an old sausage.

Bloody Mary.

Well, I'm afraid we don't have any of those things.

But I do know a tremendous hangover cure if you're feeling brave.

Oh, right. What kind of brave?

Raw egg brave?

Raw egg brave, exactly.

And a can of Coke, some tobacco, a lot of white wine vinegar and some other

things I probably shouldn't tell you about in advance.

I think I'll pass.

Fine, suit yourself.

I got the recipe from a Mexican alcoholic and those guys really know

they're talking about.

So where did you meet this Mexican alcoholic?

Oh.

Are you off?

Yeah. Have a good day. Don't leave the kids up to your teachers.

Don't learn anything I wouldn't learn.

Comedians. See you.

I'm going to get a move on, too.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, there's a lot I want to get done today. The, um, the thriller section

could do with a clean -out.

That's why I'm going in early, if you're wondering.

Okay.

Thrillers has been in bits for ages. Half the movies in there are dramas,

really.

I might even start a new section.

Psychological dramas.

Just for that crossover, you know. Okay, no, it's okay.

Right, I'm off.

I won't be far behind you.

So I'm sat there in the tarmac and my foot's swelling out three times its

size and your man dumps me while I'm waiting for the air ambulance.

He said he was concerned that I'd start slowing him down.

I am seeing a pattern developing here. Oh, there is one. I never learn.

So what about you? Have you travelled much? Oh, yeah. All over.

Dublin. Cork.

I've been to Wexford once.

Did not like it. It's very hot.

The food's a little... Yeah.

So, what are you up to now you're home?

Hairdressing. Oh?

What do you do yourself?

I run a pub. Do you know the Blue Swan?

Oh, yeah.

Them... slightly older crowd, isn't it?

Well... Yeah, I suppose so.

Yeah.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, I have to go.

Oh. How's your head now?

Better, thank you.

No, no, I'll get this.

Yeah? Mm -hm. Cheers.

Well, um...

It was nice talking to you, Adam. Yeah, you too.

Oh, yeah.

All right.

Come

here,

take a look at this.

Right, now, this is just the basics.

Contact details, education.

Very good.

So, work experience?

The flick shack.

Yeah, I know that one, but you must have done something else.

Like, even a summer job?

When you were back in, uh... No.

Okay, when did you start in the flick shack?

1993.

1993 to 2012.

Okay.

What was your job title when you were there? Manager?

I don't think they ever really gave me a title.

Well, I'll put manager away.

Feels like a lie.

It's fine.

So what were your responsibilities when you were manager?

Lending out videos.

Okay, you know what, I'll skip that for now. I think I know what I'm going to

put there anyway.

Hobbies? None.

Come on.

Oh, pub quiz.

1993 to 2012.

Hey. What's with the cactus?

It wasn't getting enough light in there. I just thought I'd take it home.

How come you were closed up earlier?

Sorry? I went past. You were shuttered up. I tried to call you, but I had no

credits. Yeah, yeah. I had to duck out to the chemist.

Brutal headache.

Oh, poor baby.

Right, that's that.

I'm going to bed. Are you staying up, or will you be joining me?

I'll be in in a minute.

Okay. Get the lights and cameras set up.

Get these electricity bills done.

I'm a middleman.
