It's my party and I want some rock!

I'll... I'll get some more beer.

Lemme help you with that, Rog.

- No. No, no, no. - Do you want me to show you how it works

-or something? - No, I know what I'm doing.

I just wanna pick something that I can really go for.

CONNIE: What you doing?

It's my eczema. It flares up when I'm stressed.

CONNIE: Oh, great, so I'm shagging the Singing Detective.

- So, have you made your choice? - No.

I can't decide between The Birdie Song and Wind Beneath My Wings.

You know what I mean. Between me and Fran.

Oh, Connie, I can't get into that now.

- The future's precarious enough. - What do you mean?

What's got into him?

Dunno, maybe he got the E.

He has to sack one of us.

What? How do you know?

I just do.

Do you know who it is?

No, but I think we can find out.

ROGER: # I get the same old dreams same time every night

# Fall to the ground and I wake up

# So, I get out of bed, put on my shoes

# And in my head Thoughts fly back to the break-up

# These four walls are closing in

# Look at the fix you've put me in

# Since you been gone since you been gone

# I'm outta my head, can't take it

# Could I be wrong?

# But, since you've been gone You cast the spell so break it

# Whoa, whoa

# Whoa

# So in the night I stand beneath the back-street light

# I read the words that you sent to me

# I can take the afternoon the night-time comes around too soon

# You can't know what you mean to me

# Your poisoned letter, your telegram

# just goes to show, you don't give a damn

# Since you've been gone since you've been gone

# I'm outta my head, can't take it

# Could I be wrong, but since you've been gone #

(THUD5)

- All rig ht? - Ay-ay.

Tripod alert.

# Whoa, whoa, whoa #

Well, at least we know who had the Viagra.

There weren't Viagra. They're all just Tic Tacs.

What?

Oh, what? What 'cos I'm black I must be a drug dealer?

But I thought I was starting to feel a buzz.

Yeah, a sugar rush.

# If you will come back, baby

# You'll never do wrong

# Since you've been gone since you've been gone

# I'm outta my head can't take it

# Could I be wrong but since you've been gone #

What is it?

Oh, had a good look, have you?

Sorry, Rog, it was on the floor.

Fuck it, I don't care.

It's my divorce papers.

Mary's leaving me, everyone.

I thought I was a happily married man till 4:00 on Friday.

Turns out, I'm not.

Oh, Roger, I'm so sorry.

We had tickets for White-snake injune.

Royal Albert Hall.

Private box... (CRYING)

Ah... Oh...

Steady on, Rog, you're, er, stabbing me a little bit.

What's happened?

Don't make him repeat it, for God's sake.

You can see he's upset.

Have some sensitivity, for once in your life.

Come on, Roger.

So we still don't know who he's going to sack.

No, it's just divorce papers.

Put another song on.

Look we've paid for the hour. Let's not all get bummed out.

It's all right, it's not that bad, Roger. Yeah?

Yeah, you've got, you've got that promotion coming up.

It's a fresh start. New horizons. Yeah?

- I suppose so. - Yeah, that's the spirit.

And look at it this way.

You ain't signed them papers, yet. Yeah?

So, you've still got time to talk her around.

- Yeah? - Thanks, Duane.

That's it.

# Nothing is so good it lasts eternally #

Well done, Fran.

# Perfect situations must go wrong

# But this has never yet prevented me

# From wanting far too much for far too long

# Looking back I could have played it differently

# Won a few more moments Who can tell?

# But it took time to understand the man

# Now; at least, I know] know him well

# Wasn't it good?

# Oh, so good

# Wasn't he fine?

# Oh, so fine

CONNIE AND FRAN: # Isn't it madness he can't be mine

# But, in the end he needs a little bit more than me

# More security

# He needs his fantasy and freedom

# I know him so well

# No one in your life is with you constantly

# No one is completely on your side

# And though I'd move my world to be with him

# Still the gap between us is too wide

# Looking back I could have played it differently

# Learned about the man before I fell

# But, I was ever so much younger then

# Now; at least, I know] know him well

# Wasn't it good?

# Oh, so good

# Wasn't he fine?

# Oh, so fine

CONNXE AND FRAN". # Isn't it madness he won't be mine

# Didn't I know How it would go

# If I knew from the start

# Why am I falling apart?

# Wasn't it good?

# Wasn't he fine?

# Isn't it madness he won't be mine

FRAN: # But in the end he needs a little bit more than me

# More security

CONNXE: # He needs his fantasy

CONNIE AND FRAN: #And freedom

FRAN: # I know him so well

# It took time

CONNIE: # To understand him

CONNIE AND FRAN: #1 know him so well #

Fran.

Sorry, Fran, can I have a word?

All right, now please, don't overreact.

He's not going to tell her now, is he?

I dunno. He's pissed enough.

CONNIE: Ah, poor Fran.

Still, at least we won't have her beady eyes on us at work every day.

Oh, God, I'm so relieved. I thought it was gonna be me.

Maybe you should give her her notice, as well?

Give her a fresh start.

It's what she deserves.

Yeah, I think you're right.

Can I help you, Janet?

Are you okay?

Yeah, it's just... So out the blue.

Yeah, I know, I apologise for that, but circumstances got out of my control.

And I can't change your mind?

I'm afraid not.

But, you know, you've got, Greg.

He'll help you through it.

I'm sorry.

JAN ET: I'd like to sing a sang.

This is a request for someone very special.

They know who they are.

And in answer to your question, yes, I do.

Very much.

# Looking from a window above It's like a story of love

# Can you hear me? #

No.

# Came back only yesterday I'm moving farther away

# Want you near me

# All I needed was the love you gave

# All I needed for another day

# And all I ever knew

# Only you

# Sometimes when I think of her name

# When it's only a game

# And I need you

# Listen to the words that you say

# It's getting harder to stay #

(SOUND MUFFLED)

# Love you gave #

(MUSIC MU FFLED)

# All I needed for another day #

(MUSIC MU FFLED)

# I ever knew #

Duane, what?

I... I didn't send you that text.

Connie did.

Yeah, as a joke.

I don't understand.

Look, that was a shitty thing to do.

Yeah, all right, Duane, don't make it any worse.

How could it be worse?

Look, Janet, I really like you, we have a laugh, but...

- But not in that way. - It's fine... I don't...

I just thought you'd make a lovely couple, that's all.

- Oh, fuck off. - All right.

All right, can I just have a word before things get too heated?

Are you all right, Janet?

That wasn't nice, Connie.

Now then, there's been a lot of rumours flying around the office about

voluntary redundancies and...

It's true.

I was charged with the unhappy task of letting one of you good people go.

I want you to know I fought tooth and nail with management over it,

until they promoted me.

Now I am management, so I have no choice.

Somebody has to go, to balance the books.

And the person I've decided is gonna leave the company...

Is me.

With Mary gone, I'm going to start over.

I've a brother in Florida I don't see much of, so I'm gonna head out there.

But, that means I'm gonna need a replacement.

And the person I've decided to recommend to the board

is Fran.

I can't think of anybody better to take the team forward.

I know you and Greg are hoping to tie the knot, so,

hopefully, this will help send you on your way.

Thanks, Roger.

Congratulations, babe.

Incredible.

Can we start looking for a bigger flat now, please?

Yea h, definitely.

- Well done, Fran. - Thanks.

Yeah, cuntgotalaions.

(WOMEN LAUGHING)

Oh, er, we've booked this room. Sorry.

I don't think so, darling, we've got this till half past.

Well, it's nearly half past now, isn't it?

So, we don't mind you joining in, do we girls?

No, I... I'm not quite sure there's enough room for...

So, you're buying a bigger flat, are you?

What? No, of course not.

I had to say that, didn't I, otherwise it would be suspicious.

Just wait until the dust settles and then I'll tell her tomorrow.

I promise.

I am never letting you go.

# But I can't hear a word you say

# I'm talking loud, not saying much... #

Hey, you're in there, Rog.

No, she's half my age.

So? Women like a silver fox.

- Go for it. - Maybe I will.

I wonder if she's into Whitesnake?

- I'm gonna ask her. - No, Fran, no.

CHANTEL". # I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose

# Fire away, fire away #

Are you still here, Janet? I thought you'd have slunk off by now.

Why don't you sing us another song, you've got such a nice voice.

What's that?

Why don't you ask, Greg?

Oh, don't worry, I will.

And by the way, I've had a little chat to Fran.

And, her new PA 'yob, guess what,

she wants someone with skills.

Someone who can hear.

I've got skills, Connie.

Ah. (LAUGHING)

I can lip read.

CHANTEL". # Cut me down, but it's you... #

What's going on?

# Ghost town

# And haunted love

# Raise your voice

# Sticks and stones may break my bones

# Talking loud #

You all right, babe?

You're fired.

Both of you.

# I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose

# Fire away, fire away

# Ricochet, you take your aim

# Fire away, fire away

# You shoot me down, but I won't fall

# I am titanium

# You shoot me down, but I won't fall

# I am titanium

# I am titanium

# I am titanium

# Stone heart, machine gun #
