Lulu! Oh, my God! Kate, this is Lulu.
She's basically my sister.
Melody, this is Crying Colin.
I am not going on a date with you.
You'll eat me alive.
Sam and Fred!
- Fred?! Who's she? - Hi.
- I heard about your dad, I'm sorry. - Yeah.
I actually want to know how you feel about me.
- Lu, I have been in love with... - I'm joking, you dick!
This programme contains strong language, adult humour and some nudity.
Lovely low ceilings,
very little light.
Four floors, 12 rooms on each -
every one occupied by a different flavour of lunatic.
- Am I on your floor? - You're in luck, princess.
A trapeze artist got evicted last week for shitting out the window.
So, moving in gift.
- Never leave that unattended. - Thanks.
What are you doing now?
Do you want to make love?
Maybe tomorrow.
I've got to find a job
and a door
and an identity, so...
Good luck with that.
What do you think?
This the coolest place I've ever seen.
Aw,
you'll get over it.
Morning, Sam.
Oh, my God, your fucking face! Your stupid face!
Oh, my God, you were so sad.
What you doing now?
Got work, actually.
Want to watch a rom-com?
What, now?
Maybe just the beginning.
That's the spirit.
It's so great she's staying.
What's she going to do here?
- Dunno. She's pretty spontaneous. - Is she?
Does she, like, go to Berlin and stuff?
We did go to Berlin once, yeah.
Oh, cool.
Done!
Just get in.
Come on, I've seen you naked before.
Tell them what happened, baby.
Yeah, so, um...
I was just preparing to get into the bath.
I turned round... Like this.
...and then suddenly there was just flashes, flashes, sparks...
- Oh, my God. What happened? - The bath blew up.
- Well, it didn't... - Oh, my God. How?
- I was just - Oh, my God, are you OK?
- Yes. - Oh, my God.
- Are you OK? - I'm a bit shaken, actually.
OK. The lights came from...
- Are you hurt? - Well...
- Are you injured? - No.
You ruined our movie!
Come on, Fred.
I really have to go to work now. Sorry, Sam. Sorry, Kate.
- I hope everything... - No, you have to bunk off with me.
- I really, really can't. I'm sorry. - No, no, no, but I need you.
Are you OK?
Yeah. Shut up. Go to work.
So, it was like lightening just...
Does anyone have any openings at their work?
I'm up for anything - medicine, advertising...
No.
I felt the heat.
Hey, what are you doing today, Melody?
I want to see your little Colin friend again.
No, Melody, he's going through a very difficult time.
Do we need tell management about the bath, or is the bath OK?
I could be dead.
Did no-one check the bath?
Oh, my God, the bath!
Ah, c'est pas vrai. Kate, do something!
- The shelf. - Oh, OK. Fuck you all.
Oh, yeah, yeah, sure, I'll fix the danger bath,
put up another shelf, set up dates for my fragile work colleagues,
before running to work - where I don't even have a receptionist -
and yes, I am supposed to be sorting that out as well.
So, if any of you can tell me where I can find one of those
in the next five minutes, I would really fucking appreciate it.
OK. So... It will ring, you pick up,
ask who it is,
remember the name or write it down,
then press the name on the switchboard,
tell THEM who it is
and if they want to speak to them, put them through,
if they DON'T want to speak to them,
go back and take a message.
OK...
which bit do I pick up when it rings?
You pick it up...
Sorry, is this a joke?
No, It's just...
So much happens so fast.
Yeah, it's harder than it looks, I've always thought that.
Ah!
Good morning. Uh...
- What's the name? - Something Events.
Is this a test?
No, we are called Something Events.
Good morning, Something Events,
Lulu speaking, how can I help you?
Hi, Lulu? It's Melody.
Put me to Colin's phone, please. Sexy man.
Ah, sure thing, Melody.
What's Colin's extension? Sexy man.
No, No, No.
Non, Melody. No sexy man,
divorcee man.
She's not good for him right now.
Hey, who's the work flirt?
Want to get my teeth into somebody.
We're not really...
We're very professional.
Hey, KK. Looking beautiful as ever.
Well, I can see your nipples through that shirt.
Shame I can't say the same about yours.
That's Johnny.
Sure.
So, to summarise point number one,
treat your time as your most...
Hey, guys, great work. You especially.
Fred, I need to ask you to step outside.
Your test results have just come back.
Now, Fred.
They've found a donor.
What?!
That was not cool.
I am in professional mode.
Is everything OK?
How good is that smoothie?
It's an amazing smoothie.
That's what the whole day could taste like, baby.
You, me and The Big Smoke.
What do you say? Work's for jerks.
People can't just walk out of work...
You're not like people.
Hmm?
Where are we going?
You're my hero. Come!
Ooh, been shopping?
Oh, God, no. No time for that.
Just something for a client.
Cool.
Hey, do you want to go for lunch today?
No. Sorry, I have a very intense, boring meeting.
That's OK.
Just Anthony asked me to go to the restaurant.
- I thought we could go together. - Oh, really?
Oh.
Oh, my God, I just remembered.
You have to deliver this package... over lunch.
It's urgent.
- Sorry. - Oh, no that's...
- That's perfect! - Great.
I'll just go and get it.
I'll drop it off on the way to my boring meeting.
Sorry.
Hello, Something Events...
Sorry. Ah, bonjour!
Why are you being weird?
I don't know.
'Lulu, just bring Colin to me.'
He'd never go with me.
Of course he will.
I can't.
- I have an errand. - A what?
- An errand. - A what? - An errand.
You have to use a different word.
- A what? - A little job.
Oh, so fine.
Bring him to me and then go away on your little job.
For me? New friend?
Oh, God. OK, OK.
- Where? - Go to Anthony's restaurant.
- J'arrive. - No, no, not there.
Madam, to what do I owe the pleasure?
Just wanted to hang out.
What have you done with Lulu?
Jessica made her deliver a package so...
Over lunch on her first day?
DOOR CHIMES Bit harsh.
- Oh! - Oh! - Hi! Hey!
- Hello! - Hi! - Hey! - Hi!
Did you deliver the package?
- I thought you had a boring meeting? - I do, yes,
but I just popped in for...
To say hi.
Oh, cool. Me too!
I was just going to deliver this now actually
I thought we were having lunch?
- Hello, Colin. - Melody?! - Bad!
- I'm sorry, she made me. - Excuse me.
You really shouldn't be here, Melody.
- You have a meeting, non? - Yes.
Oh, you're not staying?
I really have to go and deliver this now so...
See you later all. Best of luck.
Where's the package for?
Llewellyn House in Green Park.
I do a lunch drop round there. I'll pop it in.
Oh, no, honestly. I mean, don't...
It's basically the only thing Kate's asked me to do today, so...
No, I'll do it.
Stay, please.
Please. Consider this safe in the hands of
Mrs Delilah Forjenatuseu...
What the fuck?
- Are you sure? - Well, I...
Great. Can Lulu have your lunch?
- Sure. - Great!
Oh, so shit about your boring meeting.
Really shit!
Really shit.
Can we please have some cutlery?
You've already got it.
Hold out your hands.
- Ah! - We're a no-cutlery restaurant.
It's a contemporary interpretation
of the traditional North African hand-to-mouth dining etiquette.
I'd rather just have some cutlery.
We don't give a fork.
They make us say that.
It's very cool. Thank you.
I'm sorry...
What? Say something.
I'm fucking nervous.
So...
OK...
Where are you from?
Really?
So, how does it feel to be grossly underqualified
for a job you've earned solely through nepotism?
Mmm, yeah, feels fantastic.
Lu... I think we need to...
You know, I should probably get back.
- In case there's another... package. - Lu... I...
Don't fuck it up at Kate's.
- I won't. - And get a duvet.
I don't want you knocking on my door,
looking for a towel to sleep on.
Sure. I'll see you at the...
And I'm not in love with you.
- I'm not in love with you. - OK...
Is that... clear?
I'll see you later.
I will continue to live
with my wife and her lover until they...
They have sex in the bath while you're shaving your face?
That would do it, yes.
I think you should live with me. Just for a bit.
I think you would like being painted.
I'd be generous with your penis.
OK. I don't think this...
I'm not...
I don't want anything weird from you!
I want to get to know you, I want to paint you,
I want to make love to you.
I want to be your friend!
What do you want?
I want a fork!
I'll fork you.
OK. You are really interesting,
but please...
I'm not going... I'm going to go.
I AM rebellious. There's a crazy Fred in here. Serious.
Yeah? Shock me.
I drew on my desk at school.
Whoa! You wild, boy!
I cut the tassels off my mum's special rug.
Mmm, dirty.
I regularly steal pens from Ryman's,
and I once killed a fox with a tennis racket.
Shall we do something rebellious inside?
- It's getting a bit chilly. - Just ten more minutes.
- What are we doing?! - Shut that pretty mouth, baby.
You're right, you know.
It's good to take a day off, occasionally.
Oh, by the way, the whole fox thing
was more complicated than I actually...
Deep breath.
As he scattered breadcrumbs here throughout his life,
so we scatter his life here.
Bye, Dad.
I'm just not sure she's cut out for this job.
(I mean, her phone...
(voice tone is really alienating.
(And she just sounds like...
(..a criminal.)
What's up with you?
He calls her "my Lulu".
That's so hot and inappropriate.
Do you want me to get another temp in?
OK. But don't say it was my decision.
And be subtle.
Sure.
Why don't you want me to work here any more?
I do! I... What?
- You said I have a criminal voice. - Sorry. Came out badly.
Have I done something?
No, I... Jessica said something
about not bringing outside... friends
into the workplace.
Why? I mean, I'd understand if it was you,
like, I'm suddenly in your work and in your home and everything,
but it's just weird that it was Jessica.
- No, I know. - I mean, I've hardly even spoken to her.
She's just a...
...whore.
Hey. Want to eat first, beautiful?
Yeah, great. So I'm not fired?
No! SHE LAUGHS
Great!
Great. See you, KK.
See you, KK!
Have Anthony and her ever fucked?
No, thank God.
Bad luck, babe. Seriously?
Yes! Why is that bad?
Honey...
...everyone...
fucks everyone.
Eventually.
But that's just not true.
You are hilarious!
I know!
Hey, Melody.
Hey. Oh, how was your...? Oh.
Oh, it doesn't matter...
Non, non, putain... What's the word?
- It was your big day, non? Fucking... - No, no, it wasn't even...
...pitch!
How was your big pitch?
Oh, I, erm... It was...
It doesn't matter. I didn't want it anyway.
Hmm. D'accord.
Hey.
Hey. You all right?
Yeah.
Why are you wearing a hat?
Non!
Non...
Non. Colin, come on.
Courage!
Oh...
Oh!
Arrete! Arrete!
Colin!
Non!
Non. Non!
Come back. Come back now!
Mm!
How...?
How did he die?
Duck attack.
Oh, my God. Was that the pond where it happened?
Ball cancer.
Runs in the family, apparently.
I'll check yours if you check mine.
Thanks for today, Fred.
Fred...
Yeah?
This ain't never going to happen.
OK?
OK.
SHE SIGHS Relaxed?
Yeah, it's heaven.
Thanks for fixing the bath, baby.
It's... heaven.
You OK?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Really fine.
Really relaxed.
It's just we're not allowed candles.
- Baby. - Yeah?
Why did you make Lulu deliver a stapler
to someone who doesn't exist?
They said there was no-one that worked there by that name,
and that the name looked suspicious
so they opened it and there was a stapler in it.
Kate?
Ooh...
It's just... if you...
had had sex...
at least once,
then perhaps you would have got it out of your system, or...
God!
The idea of having sex with Lulu
always has and always will
make my penis want to go all the way back up inside.
It would be like touching up a monkey I raised myself.
That's really mean.
Thank you.
What made you worried?
Just...
You know.
Everyone fucks everyone eventually.
But that's just not true.
You go.
(Anthony!)
(Oh! Kate!
(Have you got a blanket...
(..or a towel that I could borrow?
(I won't wee on it or anything, I promise.)
Thanks. THUDDING
- Are you alone? - Yes.
It's just... we're not really allowed guests.
I am alone.
Hey, KK!
Hi, Johnny.
Have you got any condoms?
Ow!
Have you got any more?
No.
For God's sake.
