TIM: He says you gave him the wrong change for an ice cream.
LEE: Why? Who's change did he want? Richrd Branson's.?
TIM: He's brought his father with him, he doesn't look too pleased.
LEE: Maybe he wanted an ice lolly...How big is he?
TIM: About 4ft 5.

TIM: Well i think we can rule out a handshake.
CLEANER: Come and sit down.
LEE: You lying git! You said he was only 4ft 5.

LEE: So how did they find out where i lived?
TIM: Well the lads father gave me this note for you, and they sort of followed
me.

LUCY AND GUY WALK INTO THE FLAT.
LUCY: Lee! what happened?
TIM: Lee short changed some young lad and he brought his father round to sort
him out.
LUCY: Oh i hate violence.
GUY: I don't know, i think it goes quite well with some people.
LUCY: I'll get a damp cloth.
CLEANER: No need, i'll mop the bloodstains up later.
LUCY: I meant for his nose.
CLEANER: Shouldn't you put your head between your legs?
LEE: What for?
CLEANER: I know it's good for something.
LEE: Not like you then? Good for nothing.
TIM: You should put your head back.
LEE: I know, i know, i've had nosebleeds before.
GUY; What a surprise.
LUCY COMES BACK WITH THE CLOTH.
LUCY: Here, put this over your nose...How did he know where you lived?
LEE: He followd the homing pigeon over there.
LUCY: What.?
LEE: Never mind...I think it's broken.

LEE: You're enjoying this aren't you?
GUY: No of course not, look for what it's worth i can't abide violence either,

LEE: You won't, you're working, dust, clean, polish, only people who pay rent on
this flat are allowed a drink, [LUCY STARES AT LEE] ok, people who are in
arrears as well.

father.
LEE: Why?
TIM: Well lets face it, who'd hit a guy with glasses.?
