All language subtitles for Love Hurts s01e04 Relative Values

Hello.

Hi, Ben.

Hi, Ben. Hi.

Don't touch.

Sorry. We're going to the dentist later.

Bad luck.

Morning.

Oh, uh, Tessa.

Tessa, I'm worried about the amount of
time that is being spent on the fun run.

Everyone seems to be involved in it.

Diane spends every minute that she's
here stuffing envelopes. Fear not. It's

good fundraiser and it's visible.

It'll justify the effort.

You think so?

Trust me.

Can I say that I was impressed by the
way you handled that idiot Tremaine

the radio debate?

Your phone calls are in your signing
blocker. You've got to ring Carlson and

Brodie. Oh, sorry.

And there's a meeting about the account
later in the day. You're going to them?

Lunch. No lunch.

Diane's coming in and wants to talk to
you.

Lynne Brewer's arriving on Wednesday.
You'll find an abstract of her recent

reports on your desk.

Lynne Brewer?

Project manager in... Niger.

Soil and water conservation.

Er, that's about it.

Tessa Pickett.

What does delete mean?

No, Mum, I haven't forgotten.

I can't pick you up, but you've got
keys.

I'll take you for lunch, but I'll have
to put in the morning's work first.

Yes,

I am, Mum.

Very.

No, of course I'm looking forward to it,
but... Yes.

OK.

OK.

Bye.

I also have a mother.

Why do they have to behave like... Like
mothers? Yes.

You ought to. You're a mother.

Oh, well, that's different.

How? Well, when my mother treats me like
a daughter, she's being the mother. I

can't be the mother, too.

And if I'm being a daughter, then I
forget about being a mother.

And if I'm being a mother, I forget
about being a daughter.

Of course.

Is she coming this way?

For a couple of days.

There's an art and antiques fair. She
never misses it.

Oh, I've come for the fun runs, pal.

I put myself in charge of sponsorship
forms, booking and mailing.

Got an hour for stuffing envelopes.

Then I'm a divorce counsellor. Then I'm
a hospital visitor, OK?

Sure.

Have you spoken to Bob recently?

Why? I think he might have almost been
pleasant to me a moment ago.

Oh, well, we all have our off days.

Going out?

Yep. Tessa?

Of course.

Hope you're taking us somewhere nice.

No, he's out tonight.

Do you want to come round?

In about half an hour.

OK, bye.

Sorry. Am I late?

A couple of hours. Nothing at all.

I used to come here quite a lot.

In your days as a high roller.

That's right.

I bought a safari park today. Did you?

With a little help from my friends.

Mind you, I had to sell a school in a
factory that makes TV airing.

A normal day for you? Selling a school,
buying a safari park?

Well, it was today.

Plus acquiring one leg of a racehorse.

Did you?

Good evening, Miss Pickard. Hello,
Peter.

Um, raspberry sorbet, carpaccio and
radicchio salad, please.

Hello?

Yeah, I'll have that.

You're in pain, all right?

Very good.

It's nice to see you.

Thank you.

I was hoping you'd say it's nice to see
me.

You?

Well, I'm not sure it is.

You're like a recurring nightmare,
Frank.

Like stepping on a garden rake wherever
I go.

You even popped up in Africa, for God's
sake.

Ah.

Yeah, well, there's a particular reason
for that.

I wanted to see you.

Because when I don't see you...

I miss you.

Do you?

Yes, I do.

Do you miss me?

I mean, that is a ridiculous question.
Is it? Yes.

Do you?

Once I had a plumbing problem.

Now I've got a plumber problem.

A problem plumber.

Looking for an excuse to visit someone
in hospital or what?

Let's get your fat arse out of the way
quicker, shouldn't you?

Oi, you lot, I want those stacked neatly
out there.

Any damages comes out of your wages,
right?

This is all because your bit of posh
doesn't want to know, innit?

Why don't you just face it, mate? This
is one nut you are not going to crack.

What do you think about Stop Crocs, Max?

What?

There's a name for this place.

A disco.

You don't give up, do you?

Look, she does want to know because we
had dinner last night. And?

Well, so she can't work out what I'm
after.

Well, of course, because you don't know
what you're after either.

Maybe.

All I know, Max, when I'm not with her,
I miss her.

But why?

I mean, she's not... She's not
exactly... Look, Frank, I've seen you

birds. I mean... What are you saying?

All right, she's got a firm little body.
Probably pushes a few weights down

again. But you're losing all sense of
proportion.

You could have killed me out there.

Yeah, well, you're not out of danger
now.

Bet you're a monkey you don't pull her.

Oh, leave off, Mac.

That's two weeks take -home pay for you.

Well, I ain't going to lose, am I?

Look, she's not a hot tip for the 230,
you know.

You've lost your bottle.

I suppose it had to happen sometimes.

500 quid. Sure.

Tessa!

Tessa!

Hello, Tiff the Piggot.

Where are you?

Oh, hell.

I'm sorry, I forgot.

You forgot?

Oh, that's very nice, isn't it?

I put clean underwear on just in case.

I'm not avoiding you. I genuinely
forgot.

All right.

I'll be round in ten minutes.

No, look, I can't. I'm waiting for a
phone call from New York. It'll have to

another night.

Tomorrow? Can't tomorrow.

Thursday? Can't on Thursday either.

Saturday, then? Yes.

No, well, probably.

Look, I'll have to call you, Frank.

Sorry. Bye.

Hello? Hello,

Dad.

Are you having dinner with... Well, I'd
love to, but I can't. I'm sorry, I'm

going out.

In the what?

How should I know what's in the fridge?

I must have dozed off in front of the
TV.

Yeah? Why has it switched off, then?

Did you have a nice time?

You were waiting up.

What? No, of course I wasn't.

You're seeing someone, aren't you?

His name's Mark.

He's reading history, comes from
Southend, and I can drink him under the

Unless he lets you drink him under the
table.

He hasn't got that sort of problem.

What sort of problem has he got, then?

None of my business, eh?

I've got my own life, you know.

That idea might be hard for you at
times.

Why do you torture yourself?

Oh.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, yes.

I should be so lucky.

I mean, does this look like the body of
an old woman?

Think before you answer that.

No, it was a leaking boiler.

I woke, drip, drip, went downstairs,
floss, floss, spent half the night going

mop, mop.

Simon slept.

Oh, talking of faulty plumbing, how's
your love life?

We met.

Then what happened?

My priest was gone.

I pulled him up.

Which did you enjoy most?

I'm not sure.

Not really a plumber, is he?

Well, he was.

He sort of buys things.

Then he sells them.

He's a wide boy.

Well, no, I mean, yes, well, not really.

He's quite honourable, in a disreputable
sort of a way.

Not your type, is he?

Perhaps it's good for you to break the
pattern.

It could be.

I think about him a lot.

Maybe that means something.

Lynn Brewer's CV.

She's arriving tomorrow morning.

Well, officially she's on leave to begin
with, but she'll expect to spend a few

days in the office.

What's her schedule?

See boyfriend, see parents, relax, spend
four days here, then back to Niger.

If there's a problem, I want to know.

Well, yes.

Boyfriend, I think.

OK.

Make sure she's around in the early
evening. I'll take her for a drink or

something. That might not be a bad idea.

Hi, Kesa. Hi, Frank.

Hello, Chris. Hi, Frank.

Hello. I'm having feelings today.

Oh, are you?

Hello, Steve.

Hello.

Just to show there's no hard feelings,
I've come to take you for lunch.

Until possibly Saturday.

I'm early.

Several days.

I'll wait.

Thanks. Look, I'm really busy.

Do you know the Fenici? Yes, I... One
street down.

Yes, I know it, but... They do a
wonderful Zabaglioni.

I thought I might finish with it.

You've read about the Zabaglioni?

Have you bought anything today?

No, not yet.

I bought another leg of the racehorse,
didn't I?

What's its name?

Desert Orchid.

I was joking.

Why did you come?

You said the food was good.

Well, life doesn't have to be all rules,
does it?

No, it doesn't.

So let's forget about Saturday.

All right.

Let's go away for the weekend instead.

I know what go away for the weekend
means.

Of course you do.

Look, it's the same for me as it is for
you, you know.

No, it isn't. Didn't you do biology at
school?

No.

I did it near the school.

Bike sheds and playing fields.

Look, you know exactly what I mean.

Do I?

I'm not just talking about a weekend.

I'm talking about a long weekend.

How long?

Long.

Maybe.

Right, ladies and gentlemen, we're
booking now, please.

Oh, stop, please!

We don't have traffic in London anymore.
We have roadblocks.

I thought you weren't coming.

I thought you might still be angry.

What have you got?

Nostalgic rock 'n 'roll weekend at
Butlin's Pogde Regis.

That'll do it.

Help me move this, will you?

Are you the policeman?

No.

Put it over there.

Sure.

You're not a rapist, are you?

I am, but it's my day off.

Are you a friend of Tetra's?

Yes. Are you?

Yes. Well, where is she?

Well, she... Once a year, I come down
for the art and antique show.

We go together after we've had lunch.

Here I am. Where is she?

I phoned her new office. They don't know
where she is.

Some bank was the best they could do.

You're Tessa's mum, aren't you?

Of course.

Does she take you anywhere special for
lunch?

How'd it go?

OK.

It's just a matter of shuffling limited
options, really, isn't it?

I opened an account for the fun run.

You're at the printer's in 20 minutes. I
couldn't find the estimate.

Oh, thanks.

You'll make someone a terrific wife.

Oh, Chris, I'm sorry.

Oh, please.

I hope you're right.

Oh, is that Deborah?

Mm -hmm. From her mother's home.

Is she?

I'll expect your phone back.

A Davenport.

What's that?

A writing disc.

Everybody uses word processors these
days.

What do you reckon?

Mid -Victorian?

OK, next year. Yeah.

Nice, pretty.

What's that, Mother of Power? Yes.

Where's that?

Harold Harvey.

You're in school.

No, where is it?

Well, it's Cornwall.

I thought it was.

Look at it, Marjorie.

I thought that was Cornwall.

I was evacuated there during the war.

Well, we didn't get onto the beach,
mind.

We weren't allowed.

Well, actually, Harvey painted this just
before the Cornish beaches were shut

off for the duration of the First War.

It's called Boys Bathing.

How much?

18 ,500.

You'll have to do better than that.

Sorry? I'll go to 12.

No, I'm sorry.

OK.

17.

14.

Not a hope.

16 .5.

Fifteen.

Fifteen -five?

Okay, mate. Wrap it up.

There. It's all set up. Just type.

When you're finished, press that to save
the text.

Right. Thanks.

Um, I'm sorry I kept Ben waiting.

Oh, it's all right.

Everything's out of kilter at the
moment.

I spent most of my life trying to catch
up with my life.

I don't know what you mean.

Gita wrote and told me, um...

I hardly knew her.

I'm really sorry.

At first I was just incredibly busy, you
know.

Everything to arrange.

So many things to take care of.

Then I was miserable.

Now I'm busy again.

And miserable.

Yeah, and miserable.

How is she?

Well, we're helping each other.

Hi. Hi.

You ready? Thought we'd pick up a pizza.

Sound all right?

Josh, I'm sorry. I've been trying to
ring you.

I'm having a drink with Tessa, you know,
the new boss.

I see.

And I've got this report to write.

You only got back today.

Nice.

Night.

I know, I know, but I've got to get this
finished.

You've been away for months.

You're home for no more than a few days.

This is your first night back.

No beer, no sleep.

Well, I thought I'd get it out of the
way, make a start at least.

Then a drink with what's -her -name?

Yes. And a bite to eat, perhaps?

Perhaps, I don't know.

I'm wondering what makes this
relationship work.

Can't the absence make the heart grow
fonder, can it?

Josh, you have to try to understand.
Yes, that's right, I have to understand.

Or is it I have to understand?

I'm the way I seem to be doing most of
the bloody work.

This job is important to me.

So are you.

And if it comes to a choice, you'll win.

But I'm asking you not to make me
choose.

Never mind, Marjorie. We had a good day.

Call it a bargain.

It was the same when she was a child.

We never knew what she was up to.

Sometimes I wish I'd had a son.

Daughters are either willful or a worry
or both.

They need more looking after than a boy.

Yeah.

I suppose I find it difficult to get
used to the idea of Tessa being high

-powered. She is high -powered, isn't
she?

Definitely.

Do you know that saying about a prophet
not being respected in his own country?

Go on.

I think it might be a bit like that with
people and families.

Tessa's father is a doctor, you know.

I used to be rather proud of him for
that.

Now I never really think about it.

In the same way, he doesn't think much
about how I might spend my days.

We've grown used to one another.

It's the same with children, in a way.

You change their nappies and see them
through chicken pox and help them with

their homework and tell them off for
staying out late.

And then one day you look up and they're
important people.

High -powered.

But somehow you can't quite see how that
person was once your little girl.

I'd have liked to be high -powered.

Would you?

And what would you have been?

Archbishop of Canterbury.

Why?

Nice rocks.

So, things are going smoothly in England
in general?

One or two problems.

We can't get the farmers to work with
the nomads. It's the usual story. Still,

it's disappointing, though.

Anyway, it will be in the report.

Good.

Well, things are okay over there.

Not so okay over here.

I know that Keita mentioned it.

The thing is, I spend a lot of time out
of the country.

It's in the nature of the job.

And, well, a short version of the story
is that my boyfriend's getting edgy.

He's saying it's difficult to run a
relationship at long distance.

Yes.

What are you saying?

Well, I'm saying hang on.

What's he hanging on for?

What he wants.

Me. Living together.

Marriage, perhaps. Kids, for all I know.

What he wants.

Yes, I didn't mean it to sound like
that. I want those things too.

But not yet.

I like being out there. I like the work.
I feel I'm doing something worthwhile.

And I know how corny that sounds and how
naive it can seem. And I know that

saying it can be a sort of self -praise.
But it's not. It's how I feel.

How do you feel about, um, Josh?

Josh. I'm in love with him.

So, what's the plan?

Well, you don't have to worry.

I'm not going to abandon the project.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I'm not worried about the project.

There are other project managers.

I've looked at your report.

The progress you've made, the way the
scheme has developed.

Terrific. No complaints.

You're valuable to us. There's no
question about that.

But it could be handed over.

Gita said you were okay.

She was right.

Did she?

What else did she say?

She said you were tough, efficient, that
you didn't suffer fools gladly, and

that anyone could say anything to you
without playing games.

You'll finish the project?

Yes, I'll definitely finish the project.

Josh will have to give me that.

Afterwards, I'm not sure.

That's all right.

Let me know nearer the time.

Thanks.

So, what's the next move?

Well, talk to him.

Then I'm going up to Newcastle for a
couple of days, spend some time with my

parents. Let them see I haven't
contracted leprosy or something.

My mother worries about me.

Oh, damn.

Don't tell me something important came
up at the office.

We had lunch at Montplaisir.

I had family. It was superb.

Then we went for the art and antiques
fair in a taxi.

And Fran caught... Did you?

Well, I haven't bought anything for a
while. I was getting withdrawal

What on earth will you do with it?

What do you mean, do with it?

Sell it, vandalise it. What do you think
I'm going to do with it?

I really am sorry. I... I don't know how
I could...

I'm really sorry.

Yes.

Fortunately, there was Frank.

Who has, on occasions, been stood up
himself.

And knows how upsetting it can be.

Tomorrow I'll... I'll get the afternoon
off, I'm sure of that.

I'm catching a train at four.

Are you?

Well, I'll...

Don't worry, Frank and I have plans.

Nice looking fancy.

Tried that well.

Excuse me, have you got a jump in?

Oh, yeah.

Can you gallop?

Oh, yeah.

What'll you do? Try and move the fences?

Thought we would, yeah.

Bring him on for the Cheltenham Gold
Cup?

Be right, yeah.

Give him the nod when you think he's
off, will you?

OK, yeah.

Malcolm, it's perfectly all right by me
if Bound Black take an interest.

I'm just anxious to know that Hugh's
motives regarding Sirius' money aren't

muddled by... Malcolm, I'll have to call
you back.

All right.

Bye -bye.

Your plan for attracting corporate
finance.

Yes. Linked to an advertising campaign.
No, not an advertising campaign.

OK, a house -style image. Would you
think a total waste of time and money go

Not if you get the funding you speak of
in those notes, it won't be.

I think perhaps I reacted to the scheme
too quickly.

I was prejudiced.

I'm apologising.

Pro tem?

You're entitled to think so, I suppose.

No, I'm just apologising.

I was in the wrong.

Gita asked me to tell you... No, no,
yes.

Thank you.

Gita asked me to tell you we're fully
organised for the fun run.

Apparently, there's now a novelty
costume entry.

I thought we might go as Tom and Jerry.

Don't say anything.

Can I say thank you?

No. Thank you.

Tell Tessa I'll phone her.

It's a bit difficult for her, you know,
with this new job, trying to make a fist

of it.

I'm not cross with her.

I was once, but I'm not now.

I don't know what to make of you.

Well, you're not the first.

It's difficult with children to let go.

I know it's a cliche, but it's true.

Even when they're in their 30s and 40s,
parents still say, the children, I'll

have children.

Don't you better get off.

I don't think you'll find much
excitement in Grimsby.

Give Jess a mile, love. I will. I know
she's got her own life.

It's just, sometimes I find that hard.

change what you say. I didn't mean it
quite that way.

It was very nice of you.

Well, as well as wanting to say that,
I'm calling because I have a problem. I

can't make dinner on Saturday night,
after all.

I'm sorry.

I have to give a sort of business dinner
tonight, though, at the Koh -i -Noor.

You might find it boring, but turn up if
you'd like to.

Okay, bye.

I have worked my jacksy off trying to
sort this place out. You could say

something.

Fabulous.

I think I'll go out and spend some of my
bonus money tonight.

What bonus?

That 500 quid you bet me.

I'm still in the game, Max.

Just so happens that she's invited me to
join her tonight.

Only because she knows you'll pick up
the tab.

Face it, all you are is a rich plumber
to her.

Yeah.

Maybe that is how she sees me.

Oh, it can be lonely. I understand that.

Do you?

Oh. I did a year's VSO work after
university.

I was homesick a lot of the time.

Lonely and not.

Mostly just busy.

Lonelier for some than for others.

I'll make it up to you.

How?

I'll think of something.

Hold that thought.

There must be other project managers who
are more interested in doing other

projects.

Well, you set the call in if I was
passing, like, didn't you?

It's all right, it's all right, don't
worry about it.

Have we had the wine, Lister?

Frank, you're a klutz, you know that?

No, thank you, I'm fine.

So, how long are you going to, what's
it?

Niger. Niger.

I'm on a three -year contract. I come
back once a year.

You going to?

No.

It's a bit long, isn't it, between, you
know, meetings?

Well, you're not the only person to have
noticed that.

Said the wrong thing, have I?

That's right. It was the wrong thing
when I said it, too.

That's not fair.

I don't like it that you're unhappy, you
know that.

I'm sorry.

Yes, it was unfair.

I'll be keeping count and realise it was
my turn.

Should have kept my mouth shut, eh?

No, it's all right.

We're working things out, in full view
of everyone else, it seems.

Well, Tessa and I don't see a lot of
each other, either.

But I wouldn't say we're exactly working
things out.

Would you?

I'm a bit fed up with this relationship,
Tess.

I wasn't aware we had a relationship.

Yeah, all right. But whatever we've got,
I'm fed up with it.

I need more.

You mean sex?

No.

I mean more.

Like those two kids had at dinner.

I mean, they've got their problems.
We've got our problems.

They've got difference between them.

We're in a funny sort of way.

They're trying to narrow the gap.

See what I mean?

Back on Monday? Yes, back on Monday.

Give them my love.

Even mother?

Even your mother.

I'll phone you tonight.

Problem? No. I just wanted another kiss.

Very nice.

Trendy, but not too young.

Tess will like it.

Then he's a bit conservative.

You are a bit conservative, hasn't she
told you that?

Come to think of it, why isn't she here
helping you to fuse your clothes?

I'm knocking that one on the head.

You've paid me too much, yeah?

Put your bonus in.

Eh?

Oh.

Well, life's too short, isn't it?

Well, there you go.

Here, there's only about 350 here. Our
bet was for 500.

That was before stoppages.

Hmm?

No, thanks.

See, Peter Hartle.

OK, yes.

Yes, I will.

Where?

Right, give me your number.

Mother.

the junction of the A1 and the A16,
involving an HBV and a VW Golf.

Okay. We need a PNC search on the Golf.

Registration number A258SVS.

Driver female, probably late 20s. The
ambulance is on its way to Anaheim Park

Hospital. DOA? Yeah, right so.

Looks like a fatal.

Frank, it's me.

Tessa?

I'm sorry, I know it's late. Did I wake
you?

What? No, no, no, it's all right. I was
reading.

What's the matter?

What is it, Tess?

I couldn't ring Diane. I mean, it's the
middle of the night. I forgot.

at Flowfish, really.

What is?

The tears, the upset.

I barely knew her.

You liked her, though.

Yes, I did.

I did like her.

She seemed bright and committed and

troubled and honest.

I suspect the world could use a few more
like her.

No, it's only...

Was I crying for more than just Lynn?

For example?

I don't know.

We make such a mess of things, don't we?

Kids, parents, being parents, husbands,
wives, lovers.

Before we can set things straight or
make amends, we're dead.

Let's go to bed.

Why? I'm tired, aren't you?

Oh, yeah.

I mean, go to the same bed.

I thought you wanted to, don't you?
Yeah, of course.

But I expected... What?

I don't know.

Something first.

What?

Oh, well, I don't know.

Dinner or something.

Bit of kissing, bit of music.

Then you sort of let me talk you into
it. I don't need talking into it.

Why now?

God, I'm sad.

Is that a good reason?

Better than most.

You OK?

I'm OK.

How are you taking it?

Fine.

Just recovering from the shock of being
seduced.

I didn't seduce you.

I asked for your body and you handed it
over without much of a struggle.

There's something I want to say.

Sounds like a meeting.

It did, anyway.

First I met you, then I didn't want to
see you any more than I did. And that's

about the stage we're at now, right?

Well, missing out the good bits, yeah.

I want to go on seeing you, if you want
to go on seeing me.

But there have to be terms.

And conditions.

Yes.

A contract.

Something like that.

Go on.

There's no good for me if I feel owned
or controlled.

The relationship has to allow leeway for
both of us.

No...

What time do you call this, or where
have you been, or it's our night for

each other?

I've got my own life to lead.

It's something you'll have to accept.

You're not the first person to tell me
that.

All right, suits me.

I've got a career, a flat, a deposit
account, and I like me that way.

Okay.

No rules, no demand.

No exclusivity.

That means seeing other people.

I suppose so.

If we want to.

Hello, here.

Oh, hello, Mike.

Thanks for calling back.

Yes, well, I had a look at the video a
few days ago, and there are lots of

possibilities, aren't there?

Yeah.

Well, I think we ought to get someone
professional for the voiceover.

But first... Well, that's right. I think
we ought to decide on how much of that

video we should use and how much we
should incorporate from the previous

documentary. They might complement each
other well.

What do you think?

Sorry,

Mike, yes.

Well, if we get a dozen cassettes made,
I'll send them out with the package.

Hello, yes?

There's stuff about being free to see
other people.

Yes.

It doesn't mean to say we have to, does
it?

No, not have to.

But we can.

If we want to.

Right.

Hello. It's Max.

Oh, I'm on my way. I've been trying to
call you since last night.

Whose toothbrush did you borrow this
morning?

That's a cheap joke with an expensive
answer.

Five hundred quid, give or take.

Blimey. Are you an item, then?

I don't know.

I don't think so.

Yeah, sort of.

Congratulations. Only I've spent all the
money. You'll have to dock me wages.

Why, Max, you hang on to it.

After all, money isn't everything, is
it?

Oh, God.

He's in love.

Love hurts.

It can leave you crying.

Love hurts.

It can turn you upside down. Oh, how
love hurts.

So if it's just a game that you're
playing, you better

know that love hurts.

There's no doubt about it.

Love hurts.

But who can live without it? Oh, how
love hurts.

So you better run and hide. But
remember,

love hurts you just as much.

Thank you.
