Sugar Rush s02e02 Episode Script

Episode 2

'While Sugar was in the slammer, 'l had a run in with an older woman who initiated me in all things lesbian.
' - You were sweet.
- 'Psycho bitch.
' 'But that's OK, because l met this girl.
' That is an official invitation.
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha One way or another I'm gonna win ya I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha One way or another I'm gonna see ya I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha One day, maybe next week I'm gonna meetcha, I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha I will drive past your house I'll see who's around 'The way l see it, there are basically just two types of women.
' You were sweet.
l had a nice time.
'Manipulative bitches' .
.
and those of us stupid enough to be taken in by them.
The fact is, feminism got it wrong - it's women who are the bastards, not men.
Did you actually read Tess Of The d'Urbervilles? 'So maybe l was being a little harsh, but then what do you expect 'from someone who's got a history of having their heart broken?' Give me a call.
And that is an official invitation, right? 'lt was ten hours since Saint had given me her number.
' Hi, this is Kim.
l know we only just spoke, but l thought there's no point in beating around the bush and all that.
So l just was wondering if you wanted to meet on Friday.
That's the day after tomorrow.
Yeah, Friday.
Um .
.
give me a call.
Bye.
'Nine hours and 18 minutes since l called her and still no message.
'Call me paranoid, but if you want to talk to someone, you'll find a way.
' Hi.
Melissa.
Women in Literature.
You probably don't recognise me without the desk.
l just wanted to say, l thought what you said in class was really interesting.
Outrageous and wrong, but radical.
lt's nice to have someone else to shake things up a bit at last.
l tend to be pretty opinionated about Hardy myself.
- Right.
- You should hear me on Chaucer.
- Some other time, maybe.
- Great! 'Of the two types of women, 'l tended to fall for the manipulative type.
' - Oh, my God what's happened.
- (Have you got it?) - (What?) - (The gear!) (lt's down my top.
) (Jesus.
) SHE SOBS Guess what? l met Saint again.
Sex shop.
She gave me her number, so l call her, and l've heard nothing.
- When? - Last night.
You've already called her? She'll think you're a friggin' nutter.
That was over 12 hours ago.
You are a friggin' nutter.
She's probably not out of bed yet.
Oh, my God, do you think she pulled after l left? Kizzer, you're a friggin' head case.
You're not gonna call her again.
Say it! l'm not gonna call her again.
Just give the girl some space, you freak! Chill.
lt's a bit small.
l did say a quarter.
Yeah, well, as you said, l need to chill.
'Oh, God, Sugar was right.
'Maybe she did think l was a fucking nutter.
'Do not call her, remember what Sugar said.
'What about a text? 'Yep, that's it, a text - something brief, witty, self deprecating.
' Soz for fucking nutty Hi! - Shit! - Tough going, eh? 'Bloody Melissa!' God knows how l'm going to fit it all into an essay.
Essay? ''Women writers and the search for truth''.
lf you want, we could grab a coffee, talk it over.
Coffee? Or you could come round to mine to work, l've got herbals.
l know you're busy, but if you want, l could show you my Jeanette Winterson collection.
'Some things are just guaranteed to turn you off.
' We walked in on Kim, our daughter, having sex.
Not just sex, but erm, with a woman.
Spanking, role play - she's a dyke.
Stella.
l just don't see what this has to do with anything.
So how did that make you feel? Small.
Threatened.
Ever since the affair, l feel like l'm surrounded by these women with these gargantuan sexual appetites.
And that makes you feel small? Pathetic.
Oh, for God's sake.
So, Stella, you make Nathan feel inadequate.
A lack of confidence that affects his ability to have sex, leaving your appetite for sex unquenched, increasing the pressure on Nathan in a negative feedback loop that basically leaves him impotent and destroys your sex lives.
Genital exploration.
Nathan, when was the last time you took a really good look at your penis? Perhaps it isn't that small after all.
Perhaps it's Stella's vagina that's massive.
Nathan! Calm down! Nathan! lt's not your fault you couldn't get an erection.
For crying out loud, it was just an exercise.
What's the big deal? l was l was under the national average, all right? So what? You were flaccid.
What we need, to see how you measure up, is to coax out Mr Perky.
Get off! You've not listened to anything l've said, have you? This is question of confidence, self respect.
Not you coaxing out Mr Perky.
Well, that's a shame, cos Mr Pooped is getting really quite boring.
God, you're lucky you're a dyke! 'OK, so l wasn't going to phone.
Not even text.
' (Sugar) 'Kizzer, you're a friggin' head case, 'you're not gonna call her again.
Say it.
' (Kim) 'l'm not going to call her again.
' 'No, like Sugar said, l should just play it cool, give her some space.
'l mean, Christ, l didn't want to come across as a Melissa.
'And in the mean time, if l happened to bump into her '.
.
then that would be a coincidence.
'l mean, stalking really isn't my style.
' Kim? What are you doing here? - Just having a couple of drinks.
- On your own again? This is Letty.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Kim's an old friend.
Comparatively.
Why don't you order us a bottle of champagne? l'll join you in a second.
Whatever you say.
She seems sweet.
As honey.
Stop following me around, Kim.
lt's over.
'Anna was right, l was behaving like a prat.
'Could life get any shittier?' MOBlLE BEEPS ''Can't do Friday.
Soz.
'' How crap is that? A bit less crap than having your release date put back.
- What? - lt's what they're threatening.
Why? lt was hardly the smoothest of handovers.
Seeing the governor tomorrow.
What are you going to do? l dunno, think of something.
There's always a way.
l'm sorry.
Don't worry about it, l'll be fine.
lt's you we need to think about.
How many times you call her? - Shugs? - How many? Once.
- Texted? - Once.
And then l tried to bump into her yesterday.
'Kin hell, Kiz, she'll report you soon.
lf you want to get her, you better start making it look like you've got a life.
Make yourself unavailable.
- Get a girlfriend.
- Who? l'm sure we can think of someone.
Melissa.
God, no.
- Hi! - Hi.
- Hi! - Hi.
l had to go back, forgot my thesaurus.
'OK, so l knew this was a bad idea.
' You want me to pretend Melissa is my girlfriend? - You want Saint.
- l can't.
Why not? Melissa? You haven't seen Melissa.
< Quite aside from the fact that there's no way l'll persuade her to go clubbing on a school night.
Are you free tonight? But it's Tuesday! The whole point is to make Saint think l'm not desperate.
Pretending to go out with Melissa really isn't gonna help.
Kizza, you've got no imagination.
'You don't ask her out.
'You invite her round to your place.
' And then what? Then you get her wasted and use your feminine wiles.
Works every time.
You should know, Kizza.
lt's always the good girls that are desperate to be shown a good time.
Melissa, can l get you a drink? Water would be lovely.
l don't do caffeine after six.
You know, red really suits you, you should wear it more often.
Heretry this.
- Go on.
- But what about Middlemarch? Look, your work's not going anywhere, is it? Wow! That looks gorgeous against you.
Really? Really.
Melissa, you're sexy.
Well, go on.
Strip.
'And l wasn't the only one who was determined to get her own way.
' Wine? l'm reading.
'Stella had decided to give up on the talking cure '.
.
and take more affirmative action.
' A long hot soak for me, l think.
Right, turn round.
Oh, my God! Oh, God! No, you actually look OK.
More than OK.
Nice.
l'd better get ready, then.
Ready? Yeah.
We're going out.
lt's hot.
l'm just gonna get myself a drink.
Bye.
Hi.
- This is Melissa.
- Hi, Melissa.
- We're just gonna go out into town.
- Great, fantastic, good.
Nathan! Mr Perky's back in town.
'All right, l know what you're thinking.
This is awful.
' This is amazing! 'But actually, Melissa didn't scrub up too badly.
' Everyone's so beautiful.
'And she seemed to be enjoying herself.
' Two vodkas.
'ln fact, this was probably the closest 'she'd ever come to having an orgasm.
' l can't believe you brought me here.
Drink up.
Do you wanna dance? Oh, Stella! Nathan! Oh God! Oh, God! Oh, Stella! Oh, God! Oh, Stella! Stella! Stella! Stella! Aaaaagggh! This music, it's so funky! l never want it to stop! 'Melissa and l didn't just look like an item but joined at the hip.
'Now l had to make my move.
' Grab another drink, yeah? Stella.
Hmm? l'm still up.
Yeah.
Let's go to bed.
No, l mean l'm still up.
l think there's something wrong with it.
Hey.
Hi! l got your message.
Sorry about Friday.
l was hoping we could fix up another time, but it looks like someone beat me to it.
'l guess some plans can work too well.
' She seems sweet.
'Mine had been so successful' Sorry.
l guess l'm just bitter cos l missed out again.
'.
.
Saint wasn't just jealous' Maybe some other time.
'.
.
she was jacking it in.
' Oh, thank God you haven't been served yet.
No coke.
- What? - With the vodka.
The caffeine.
l'll never sleep.
'And l was just totally shafted '.
.
unless' You were sweet.
l had a nice time.
She seems sweet.
There's always a way.
Anna, hi.
What are you doing here? On your own again? This is Melissa, my new girlfriend.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Melissa, Anna.
An old friend.
Melissa's pretty new to the scene.
l thought l hadn't seen you round before.
You would have noticed someone as hot as her, wouldn't you? Kim! So, what are you guys up to next? Next?! lt's nearly midnight! We've still got an essay to finish?! lf you change your minds, l'm heading on to a party.
You're more than welcome.
'Plan B was operational.
' Ready? l'm parked just outside.
Oh, there's only room for one.
Kim? That's fine.
l'll just follow you guys in a taxi.
- Are you sure? - Mmm-hmm.
'Maybe it was mean of me to sacrifice Melissa.
'Well, very mean.
' OK, women writers and the search for truth.
Who'd like to start? - Melissa! - l'm really sorry.
'l did feel bad.
' First she fucks you over and then she steals your girlfriend.
- That's pretty rough.
- Tell me about it.
'But it was worth it.
' Come on.
Ah! Ah, God! What the fuck did you think you were doing? Sorting out our little problem.
Trust, Stella, trust.
How do you think that makes me feel? At least we got to see Mr Perky.
'Like l said, there are only two types of women.
' Watch out, the governor's in your room.
lt wasn't the smoothest of handovers, Kizza.
'The manipulative bitches 'and those stupid enough to be taken in by them.
' You filthy cow.
l know, l need to be reprimanded.
OK, so, like, why would l do drugs when l know you're watching me? And l know that you're watching me .
.
my every move.
l'm innocent, guv.
Honestly, l wouldn't play games with you.
OK, guys, thanks very much.
See you next week.
Melissa.
Listen, l'm sorry if You see, the thing is Do you want to go and grab a coffee? l know l shouldn't have done what l did.
lt was cruel but she was just so hot.
And what a night! Let's just be friends, yeah? So where did you meet Melissa? - College.
- College? College.
She just somehow doesn't seem your type.
We've got a lot of things in common.
Literature Hmm.
She could never have been your girlfriend.
l don't know what you mean.
lf she had have been going out with you, she'd have done this.
And this.
And this.
Wanna taste you, wanna touch you Wanna taste you, wanna have you.
