[to Mark, with a flirty look]
Lucy : with an inch of tonic?
Mark Corrigan : [voiceover] Come on, Mark! Turn it on, play the game!
[to Lucy]
Mark Corrigan : Oh, uh, naughty, you've combined metric and imperial, you might get an interdenominational... you know, from mixing the two measurement systems, a hangover of that kind.

Aurora : So, that's great you're in a band. What's it called?

-
Jeremy Usborne : [driving the boat] Warp Factor three please, Scotty!

Mark Corrigan : Jez, it's 10 in the morning!
Jeremy Usborne : Well, what else are we gonna do? Just sit here, freezing our nuts off, talking to each other? I mean, what the hell are we gonna talk about?
Mark Corrigan : I dunno... stuff, banter, chat. Isn't that what you had in mind when you organised this thing?
Jeremy Usborne : Sure. Yeah. S'pose. So how do you feel now the wedding's back on track?
Mark Corrigan : Not that.
Jeremy Usborne : Oh right, not that! Well, what then? I can't think of anything to say, you start.
Mark Corrigan : [looks around then points at something] Hey, is that a kingfisher?
Jeremy Usborne : Oh, for God's sake! If we're gonna talk, let's talk about something proper, like films.
Mark Corrigan : [voiceover] Ugh, films. Another hour of my life gone trying to explain to him what The Matrix is.
Jeremy Usborne : [voiceover] This weekend is gonna be one massive dry hump. Maybe the pressure will build to the point where we actually try to fuck each other.

Jeremy Usborne : [voiceover] Oh yeah, this is cool. Just don't think about the dead dog. If I don't think about it, there's always a chance it didn't happen.
Aurora : Let's roll, cowboy. Where's Mummy?
Jeremy Usborne : Mummy?
Aurora : Yeah, I let her out for a piss.
Jeremy Usborne : Are you sure she was with us?
Aurora : Jeremy, she was on the back seat.
Jeremy Usborne : She must have run off.
[voiceover]
Jeremy Usborne : Except she defintely hasn't because I'm carrying her around in this bag.
Aurora : She never just runs off.

Mark Corrigan : No Jez, if you drank my piss, I'd feel violated.
Jeremy Usborne : Oh, that is great. You wouldn't even let me drink your piss? I'm not trying to kiss you, Mark. It's liquid waste.
Mark Corrigan : I'm sorry, but no.
Jeremy Usborne : You wouldn't let me drink your piss?
Mark Corrigan : Why would you even want to drink my piss?
Jeremy Usborne : For a laugh!
Mark Corrigan : What the hell made you think of that?
Jeremy Usborne : I'm just bored, OK! I'd let you drink my piss.
Mark Corrigan : Oh, thank you very much.
