- hey! you calling me a hooker?! - you,re dressed like one.
- so are you.
get out.
- who do you think you are, love? - i,m his girlfriend.
I,ve had enough of this.
i,ve tried to be honest and all you do is lie to me.
She,s exaggerating.

she,s just a friend.
Why is she dressed like that then? - any ideas? I,ve had a nightmare day, mate.
mani wouldn,t - hi.

Don,t mind if we come in, do you, sir? That is absolute bloody slander! where did you get that idea from? Oh, all right.
Look, this isn,t what it looks like.
This isn,t a prostitute.
she,s my girlfriend.
Whatever you,ve done, nathan, it,s ok.
- jesus loves you.
- yeah.
It,s just the rest of us think you,re an arsehole.
Hang on! wait! i can explain! - what the fuck are you doing? - you cost us business.
Why did you change the number on our cards? You were going to explain, sir? They let me off with a caution.
Mostly because they hadn,t had a laugh like that for ages.
Thanks for waiting.
you,ve been really good.
- i am still trying to understand - let,s just move on.
I made a few mistakes.
Maybe it was fate after all.
Sojase, he,s your friend? - yes.
- but not your boyfriend? - no.
- he has a boyfriend at the hospital.
- does he? - and fi, she,s his girlfriend? - er, yes.
- but also your girlfriend? No.
You and your friends are seriously messed up, eh? Ii think it,s best we stop seeing each other.
Your life is maybe a little bit more complicated than you told me.
But i told you, i,m gonna change.
My life isn,t normally like this.
You used me.
And what about fi? I think you know, nathan, she has very strong feelings for you, yes? - we,re good mates.
Maybeyou need to be more honest with each other.
It,s not that simple.
It is.
These thingsare always simple.
It,s people that complicate them.
Hasta luego, nathan.
Oh! Get off me, you poof! Oi!
