THEY GIGGLE Live sex show.
Aren't you making dinner? What? Oh, no, we're getting a takeaway.
Which you'll be eating while lying in your own filth? There's no filth, you berk.
I added toilet cleaner, didn't I? BOTH: Toilet cleaner! Toilet cleaner! Well, just a little.
You know, genital germs, et cetera.
Right, I'm getting out now.
Martin! Thank you.
Hello, all! Oh, Jim! Oh, Jackie.
What are you doing here? Why have you got a great big bubbly bath outside? It's a hot tub.
Hot tub? Hot toilet.
Thank you.
And do Jewish people not take baths indoors? Er, not on Friday nights.
Ah, of course.
Shalom.
BOTH: Shalom.
What do you want, Jim? My sister's coming to visit me later.
Sister? I didn't know you had a sister.
Oh, yes, Jackie.
But she's rather scared of dogs, so I wondered if you'd Please don't say, "Look after Wilson for me?" .
.
look after Wilson for me? Fantastic! Um.
Yeah, thanks, Jim, um, but we've never had a dog beforeander Yeah, we wouldn't really know what to do with him, so It's OK, Jackie.
Here are the instructions.
"Do not look Wilson in the eye for more than three seconds.
" Well, we survived that.
It was supposed to be a relaxing night in, and then that bloody thing turns up.
Oh, don't be like that, Jackie.
Well, where are we going to put him, then? "Wilson doesn't like small spaces.
" That rules out the oven, ha! "Or large spaces.
" So, nowhere on Earth? Surely we can put him somewhere.
Outside.
"Wilson should not be kept outside, "as he has been known to frighten oxen.
" Right.
Shall we just order our food, and get on with the bloody evening, yeah? Good idea.
And Martin, put some clothes on, this isn't a nudist camp.
What? Ow, you bugger! We're getting Chinese.
Oh! Skill McGill! Skilligan McGilligan! China Paradise.
Where's that menu? Oh, not China Paradise.
They don't deliver.
So? You'll just have to go and collect it.
Collect it? We have to collect the food? It's not the 1930s.
Oh, shut up.
Lazy shit-for-nothings.
Thank you.
Can't we just get a delivery? Yeah, just find somewhere online.
Online? I'm not eating bloody internet food! Pardon? Internet food? Oh, not this again.
Dad, they don't actually make the food inside the internet.
Internet bloody food.
I've tried explaining it.
It's not worth it.
Oh, and I'll need my card.
My purse is in the kitchen.
Which we have to "collect"? Correct.
Master Jonathan, would you get the horse and cart ready? Certainly, sir.
Pillocking pillocks.
"Internet food.

Yes! Well, your father and I happen to call it nippy-nippy.
OK.
Happy now? No, not happy now.
Unhappy now.
Yes, very unhappy now.
Ugh! What does it even mean, nippy-nippy? I don't know, it's just what we call it.
It's, you know, cute.
Cute? It's depraved.
OK, just put the bloody plates out, will you? Anyway, Jackie, we can still have our nippy-nippy later, we'll just bung the dog in another room.
Thank you, Martin.
How romantic, bunging the dog in another room.
Hold on.
GNAWING Er, I think someone's eating the house again.
What? Oh, no, don't say! Oh, my God! Oh, shit on it! Wilson! Oh, Martin, take him upstairs, will you? Pissing hell! And not in our room.
No, because he mustn't get in the way of your nippy-nippy.
Ow! DOORBELL Dad's condom delivery? Ow! Um, hello, again, boys.
Hi, Jim, er, why are you Wet? Yeah Oh, well, um, after you left the restaurant that we were in, I sort of set the tablecloth on fire which sort of set off the um Sprinkler system.
SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY Yes, which sort of made us, and all the other people in there, wet.
Very, very wet.
GIGGLING So, we went back to my house to get dry.
But on the way I slipped on a worm.

When I saw Jackie on the computer system, it said she really didn't like dogs, so Computer system? What, you met her online? On a line? Your dog's eaten half our bloody house.
