RINGING NOISE

Everything's cool for the first few seconds.

Then I remember what I'm like and how I have to be that today,

tomorrow and every day until I'm not.

Mm...

Why am I here?

Don't you remember?

RINGING CONTINUES

Ugh...

You said everything was spinning.

Yeah, cos I'd just drank a bottle of vodka.

Why?

I lost my job.

And I fell out with someone - it's what people do.

But I don't.

Well, not everyone's problems can be solved by cat videos.

And anal clenches.

Sorry, Shereen, I don't mean that.

You've done so much, letting me stay.

I'm taking the piss - you should evict me.

Well, you're a guest, not a tenant.

I wouldn't let a tenant sleep in my bed, it would be breach of the lease.

It shuts my head up.

Drink.

Well, how can I help you?

Don't let me go to odd bits.

Shiatsu's really good for anxiety.

And I need someone to practise on for my course.

RINGING NOISE

I think I feel worse than that.

Look.

This is as bad as you're going to feel.

Promise.

This was a positive bonding experience.

Even if I am going to spend the rest of today worrying I tried

to sleep-finger her.

♪ Don't know what to do by myself

♪ Cos all of my thoughts are of you

♪ All my thoughts... ♪

It's time to bring in the big guns,

before I shoot myself in the head with one.

Before you ask, I had a really nice childhood.

I wasn't abused.

Unless, not being allowed a horse is abuse.

OK.

Good to know.

So...

..why do I think about molesting strangers and...

..going down on my mum?

Yeah, intrusive thoughts can be ridiculous,

but it is normal to have them...

But why would I think them if I didn't want to do them?

Can you tell me another one of your intrusions, like,

the last one you had, perhaps?

Oh. I know, I know - this is difficult

but everything you say stays in here.

I was thinking about fingering you.

I was thinking about stabbing you in the face with my pen

and how I'd have to pay my cleaner extra cos of the blood

and the ink stains.

Erm...

It was only a thought. MARNIE SIGHS

It doesn't mean anything.

And what did you do in response to that thought?

Told myself I didn't want to do it.

You tried to reassure yourself?

Did that work?

No, still thinking about it.

And you haven't touched me.

Which would suggest that you are NOT going to act on your intrusions.

But I have acted on them.

With various people and various genders in various ways.

Ah, so you keep checking?

Yeah.

That's a compulsion.

Anything you do as a reaction to your intrusive thoughts

is a compulsion.

Do any of these things stop the thoughts,

or the anxiety they cause you?

No.

So, could it be that your solutions

are part of the problem?

OCD is a recognised condition that people get help for.

Help!

I'm cured!

Really? No, I've got to come back.

Everything OK?

Uh, it's an anxiety thing.

Snap!

That's probably because we're both creative.

It's, like, nature's compliment.

PHONE BUZZING

Uh, thanks SO much for this.

I'll pay you back.

Oh, it's my treat.

The last functional present I got was when my parents got me

an office chair for my Christmas.

This is much better.

SHEREEN LAUGHS Come on.

All right? It's me - the knob end from his mum and dad's house, again.

Have you blocked me?

I'm starting to think that you have - I've sent a lot of texts!

Anyway, will you just erm...

Will you ring me back?

Cos, erm...

Yeah, I meant to be going to this thing later and I've got

to convince these work people that I'm all right.

And uh, yeah, I'm not.

I feel, erm...

I feel shit, actually, cos of, you know,

cos of how I was with you.

So, yeah, will you just...

Will you just talk to me?

I know I don't really know you, but I feel like I know enough.

Too much, perhaps. HE LAUGHS

But, you know too much about me and all.

That's...

T-That's why we should be mates.

So, erm...

Yeah, call me back.

All the fucked up stuff I've done is cos of my disorder,

From now on, I am off it.

This is a friend zone.

If you see me near anyone's genitals,

just smack them out of my hands.

£62.37, right?

Yeah, thanks.

I didn't think you'd come.

Unless it's the ghost of you and you've come to haunt me.

Which I would deserve.

I'd haunt the fuck out of you!

I'd chuck your furniture about, wake you up in the middle of the night, cos that was...

I know... I don't even know what that was!

Inexcusable?

I would love an excuse!

I'm trying to think of one.

I don't want you to make one up, I want you to talk to me.

Cos I did you a favour. I know and I'm so grateful...

Libby thinks that I get junior staff off Tinder.

She started calling them "Tinterns".

I fully accept responsibility

for how fucked up I was - both times.

But I know it's me,

and I'm addressing it.

SHE SIGHS

I'm really sorry.

Ugh...

It wasn't ALL you and...

My recruitment strategy is clearly flawed.

Can't seem to keep it in my pants.

Because I keep taking my pants off for all the shagging.

What can I say? I'm a people person.

Especially when the people want to come back to my place.

It's a nice place.

You should see my place.

Yeah?

Not cos it's anything special.

Or even mine.

But I could cook you dinner to say sorry?

Uh...

Dinner, yeah, sounds good.

I'm like, "Please be my friend!"

You don't have to try so hard.

DOOR CREAKS AND CLOSES

SHE SIGHS

What?

I didn't know he was coming.

Nah, it'll be grand.

I let him come cos he finally got rid of Shula.

He didn't murder her, they just split up.

And, I didn't want to leave him on his own.

Drinks?

What are you drinking?

Usual.

I'm not, this is fine.

It's just an intrusive thought.

I don't have feelings for him, I have a medical condition.

PHONE BUZZING Shit!

This is work.

I've been trying to pin her down for ages.

Don't shag her.

Hi!

Nancy, it's actually an honour to be talking to you...

You seem...

Warmer?

I am - not just in my bra this time!

I was going to say better.

Well, nobody's called me Moira since, so...

I have to run off to meet someone.

I'm not being a dick, it's for work.

Your woman sounds like high maintenance.

But I'll see you for the dinner, right?

Sorry to leave you with him.

It's fine.

I always forget people are into this.

Not me!

I'm not into this.

DOOR CLOSES

And he's DEFINITELY not into this.

We're two people not being into this.

Hey.

We should get that drink now.

Still not drinking - that's peer pressure.

Doesn't have to be alcohol.

Do you mean a friendly drink?

Or, a sexy drink?

Just so I know what I'm dealing with.

I was thinking like a...

..sexy drink.

Why?

Because I'm available,

and you seemed up for it.

You think I'm up for it? No, not UP for it but willing.

Cos I'm so up for it? No, this is...

I mean... It's just like, really?

After everything you've seen?

I like what I've seen. I want to see more of it.

I'm quite messed up right now.

I don't care!

I-I-I do care.

I just mean I don't mind.

I'm like, "Come at me, bro, I'm into it."

I mean, not into it. Well...

I was cos it was kind of hot.

This is coming out wrong! Are you actually being serious?

Do you like vulnerable women or something?

No, I prefer stable ones.

Being friends with someone means doing stuff for them

that you don't want to do.

Like, listening to that dream they had,

or doing their birthday drinks.

This is like that - with more disinfectant and screaming.

Does it hurt...? Yeah, a little bit.

I'm sorry about before,

suggesting you're a predator.

You're not.

Well, I don't know what you're up to in your free time,

maybe you are.

But until I hear otherwise, you're not.

Thanks?

I've been having some technical issues lately.

So, apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

Yeah, it is a bit inconvenient.

How am I meant to prey on vulnerable women if I've got a limp?

It's weird the driver didn't see you wearing your Hi Viz.

Like a shit lollipop man who got run over!

Yeah, what did you come as - loft insulation?

It's human bubble wrap!

Yeah, but cos of anxiety - not arousal.

Oh, they're taking ages!

Yeah, if you want to get off...

Do you want me to? No, I just won't be offended.

Cos I can stay. Yeah.

I mean, whatever.

I'm staying, so you don't get run over by a trolley.

Yep. Shouldn't you... Could you? Yeah. Thanks.

Fuck! Sorry, it's just really sore.

Your girlfriend can come too.

Oh, hello! She's not...

Thanks. She's not here yet, but you can go through.

Great. Can I take your phone?

Nope, that's fine, I'm going to keep that.

And I love yours.

I love it too. I think it is great, I love it.

Shall we?

Yes.

It's just hard to believe that the woman who used to lovingly

lay out my socks every morning is the same one who spray-painted

a cock on my Audi.

Well, I've become a complete cynic in these matters.

I'd stay well away from women if I were you.

I will!

Ooh, shit, there's one.

Ooh, and another one!

You should have a word with them.

With women?

Well, of course.

And as spokesperson for all women, I'd like to apologise

for your wife's audacity to claim reasonable compensation for the cost

of access to her womb, and the best years of her life.

What a bitch!

This looks lovely - I might go for the sea bass.

Could get used to this.

Obviously, subject to you letting me back.

Well, it's up to her.

I just do what she says.

You ready to order? Ladies first.

Off you go, then. Oh!

We're out of the sea bass, so, apologies for that.

Oh, no. Aw, he's going to have to have more time off!

THEY LAUGH

MAN SCREAMS

Do you think he's getting an injection?

SCREAMING CONTINUES

Not unless it's a MASSIVE needle, like a knitting needle.

Or, a skewer,

lance, a joust!

OK - less pointy words.

Are you scared?

I don't like being poked by things.
