00:00Yeah, what do you want?
00:07I got you these.
00:08I don't know how fond you are of prickliness.
00:10However, I couldn't get any without these gross yellow and green things on them.
00:14You can always rip them off if you want.
00:16I know, I feel the way a good dagger said.
00:17Rose, by any other name, would still smell like shit.
00:20Yellow symbolises...
00:22Cowardice.
00:24I was going to say friendship.
00:25And cowardice.
00:27Look, if you just want the thorns, you can always rip them off.
00:29What are you doing? Give me that! You psychopath!
00:32See? That's all I wanted.
00:34You know your parents hate me, right?
00:36My mum hates you.
00:38My dad thinks you're a hoot.
00:40But I never spoke to your father.
00:42Maybe that's why he likes you.
00:44Excuse me, this is a private conversation.
00:46Oh, actually, I don't mind.
00:48Lacey, this is Jonathan.
00:50A spoiled polished knob who recently graduated with a doctorate in feminism, I hope.
00:55A doctorate?
00:56With a third degree.
00:58She's been reading from that trigger manual again.
01:01Hasn't she?
01:03I have indeed. It was a great gift.
01:05An heirloom.
01:06Hey, you know what Jonathan got for his 21st birthday?
01:09Chip-faced?
01:11A convertible.
01:12Toot toot. Beep beep.
01:14And you are?
01:15Lacey McAvoy.
01:17My sister.
01:18Half-sister.
01:23Hmm, I can see the resemblance.
01:25Have you ever noticed that your middle fingernail grows faster than the other ones?
01:28Maybe that's because you use it so much.
01:31Quite a hostile bunch, aren't you?
01:33You think we're hostile?
01:35You should meet my father.
01:36What is he, with fire or something?
01:38Just about.
01:41Look, Rihanna, I wanted to ask you this in private, but clearly you've backed me into a corner.
01:46How's about you come round mine on Sunday night and we have you for dinner?
01:50Cannibal.
01:51Why?
01:52Well, you know my parents' opinion of you, and clearly I can't take a hint.
01:58You want to parade me around like an adolescent act of defiance, don't you?
02:03You don't want to be so blunt about it.
02:05It's going to cost you.
02:07Name your price.
02:08$3,000, and that's for two hours of my time participating in such a ridiculous charade.
02:13The fee doubles every hour after that.
02:15Deal.
02:16Damn, you got balls.
02:19Don't ever say that to me again.
02:21I'll pick you up here.
02:22Six o'clock Sunday.
02:24Six o'clock sharp, yeah?
02:26Will you bring the limousine?
02:27Nah, just the donkey.
02:35Shit!
02:37What's that?
02:38It's mine, give it back.
02:39Well, this can grow up to about 20 centimetres long and weighs about 150 grams.
02:44What is it?
02:45Jesus.
02:46It's a switchblade knife.
02:47By the measurements you gave, I thought it was a dick.
02:50A knife can do more damage.
02:52Shows how much you know.
02:54By the way, you never thanked me for lying about it for you.
02:58What do you mean?
02:59As far as Dad's concerned, that knife's lying at the bottom of the river.
03:03When you took it, I covered for you.
03:05Good to know. Thanks.
03:07What are sisters for?
03:08She's a beauty.
03:11No way we ever want to throw her into the river.
03:13I have no intention of doing that.
03:15Clearly.
03:16Thanks.
03:17It's always good to have a nice set of fingerprints on a knife.
03:26Isn't he just a tall glass of water you didn't know you needed?
03:29I'm not that thirsty.
03:31Nice arse on him too.
03:33Oh, shut up!
03:34Don't give me that sexual repression.
03:36I can see it from a mile away.
03:37You want to bang him like a dunny door.
03:39Absolutely not, he's a dick.
03:41Ah, but a loaded dick.
03:43Ah, but a loaded dick.
03:45In more ways than one.
03:47Oh, look at him, swaggering away.
03:50He's an authentic Irish snack.
03:53Yeah, you're right.
03:55He's an absolute potato.
03:57He's a stud, not a spud.
04:01Look, I've got to get back to work.
04:03I'll talk to you later.
04:07Hello?
04:08Hello Lucy, this is Zoe Cook from the Medical Centre.
04:10Hello Zoe.
04:11Is now a good time to call?
04:12Yeah, what's up?
04:14We've got your test results back.
04:17Do you have a couple of minutes to talk?
