(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

Hi.

LIMA: (ON PHONE) Hey.

How's your lunchtime looking?

Uh, today?

I thought we could do

Are you sure? Today?

Yeah. Why not?

OK.

OK. See you then.

You right there, big ears?

If you've got something rude

Deziyah and I can cope.

(LAUGHS)

Are we re-decorating?

It's Valentine's Day.

No, it's not.

Oh, goddammit.

Typical Jules, cocking it up.

Oh, no. It is!

Oh, shit.

(SIGHS)

Morning.

Sleep in?

Valentine's Day sucks.

Gonna hang with mates or...?

Do you ever outgrow some people?

All the time. You know, like,

So, I'm gonna go to the movies

You can come if you want.

It's gonna be like

Yeah, man. Thanks.

Are you gonna come, Toby?

He's got a group meeting today,

I'll go have a shower.

(TOBY SPEAKS)

Grow up.

(SIGHS)

Everyone's always about

WOMAN: I actually don't mind

Meaningful eye contact is better

because they don't tip.

Valentine's Day is

Oh, fuck it!

Valentine's Day,

No-one likes it.

(WOMAN LAUGHS)

Uh, excuse me. Can I help you?

I got Cherry's text.

What you said, I realise that I...

I don't know what the fuck

No, uh, no, no, you...you...

You said you've fallen deeply

and that you're...sopping wet,

(WOMEN LAUGH)

No, I didn't.

JULES: Oh, nuts!

Oh, god.

Uh, OK, this is a woman-only,

so if you could wait outside,

Jules, what did you do?

Well, I sent out a Valentine's

"Hole to hole?"

Well, I got tips from Mariyah.

I thought she was trying to give

I can see now how it could be

but my heart was in a good place.

So, do you foresee anyone else

No.

Yes.

Oh, goddammit!

Fumbled the play!

WOMAN: Oh, no, Jules.

WOMAN: Oh, no. Now they're gonna

DEZIYAH: I think you're looking

Juless fuck-up

to make a whole lot of money.

I will fix this.

God, they're already calling.

Sweethearts...

Uh... Yes, she is working today.

No, Amethyst did not mean

Yeah.

And no, Cherry doesn't love you.

Terribly sorry.

Simon, yeah?

Simon, Cherry does love you.

You keep booking.

Noam, have you seen my hat?

Oh, here it is.

(LAUGHS)

Hey, you look really nice.

(SNIFFS) Is it vanilla?

No.

Well, we'll head off soon, yeah?

Yeah.

Cool.

DEZIYAH: Yeah.

It's good you got our text,

Uh, there were some crossed wires.

No, she's got a girlfriend,

In fact, you could book them both

Yeah. Mm-hm.

Yeah.

Yes, yes, we do have anal beads.

Fanny-tastic. See you then.

Listen, don't give out details

There is nothing wrong

getting insight into a sex worker's

if it keeps them regular.

Well, it's a transgression

Oh, chill out.

Look, I'm making you

for what could've been

(PHONE RINGS)

(SIGHS)

Welcome to Sweethearts.

MAN: (ON PHONE) Yeah, hi.

Hold on, is this...Josiah?

Goldie talks all the time about

No, don't do that.

Yes, I'm sure she's free.

I'm sure that we can book you.

(VEHICLE APPROACHES)

(DOG BARKS)

Monday will be great.

Lolly!

Uh, can I help you?

Sorry, I'm...I'm looking for Lolly.

Carl!

Carl! My angel baby farmer Carl!

(LAUGHS)

I left Margot.

I got your text

I knew we had something.

Look, I don't think of you every day

I think of you

And when we root, it's music.

Oh, god.

And it's like you said in the text,

my heart and your heart, they...

they pound the same beat.

So let's just get out of here.

Let's just go

(LAUGHS) Yes.

No!

No! No. No.

Definitely not.

I know it's exciting and romantic,

but you can't build

out of a transactional one.

Oh, says who?

No offence, but I'm not sure

to be preaching about relationships.

Well, didn't your marriage

'cause you were gargling

What you're missing is context.

Oh, so he didn't book Lolly and then

He's what we call a golden goose.

(LAUGHS) Farmer Carl?

He knows that Lolly's a sex worker

That is a secure man right there,

Cock.

Clients fall in love with you

It's like the life cycle

Yeah, and they usually just want

and stop paying for it.

They don't leave their wives.

I'm not a silly woman.

Oh, I...I didn't say you were.

You didn't have to.

I'm just worried

To what? Something meaningful?

Being vulnerable

You know, actually, it takes guts

put myself out there all the time.

And now someone's chosen me,

I don't need protecting

Yes, you are!

Yes, you are!

Bye.

I'll miss you.

You're so brave, babe.

Thank you so much.

Lolly, when this...if this ends,

you've always got a home,

No, no, off you go.

Let's go.

JULES: Oh, fuck.

Endless.

(UTE DOOR CLOSES)

We love you so much!

Bye!

We'll miss you.

Bye!

(HORN HONKS)

(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

Oh, he better look after

Welcome to Sweethearts.

WOMAN: (ON PHONE)

Excuse me?

Who?

This is Maria, his wife.

It's Carl's wife.

Actually, I have a lunch thing,

Can someone please tell me where...

This is the second time

Hello? Are you there?

Are you there?

Excuse me, ma'am...

I'm gonna have to ask you

Don't tell me to turn it down!

Hello?

Happy Valentine's Day.

I'm Ruby, your sex worker.

What you looking for?

Basic package?

OK.

OK.

You got money? Cash up front.

I've got spring rolls.

How many?

Four. Two each.

What's in them?

Uh, prawn, chilli and coriander.

Oh.

Fine.

OK.

What was that?

(BOTH LAUGH)

(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

Oh, god... Uh, just...

..one sec.

(EXHALES)

It's Mack.

Uh, no. Yep.

No, yep, I can be there.

OK. Thanks.

Oh, god.

The aircon's gone out

Uh... Totally.

(HALF-LAUGHS)

Sorry.

(LAUGHS)

Oh, god.

Yeah, OK.

Oh, my god.

(EXHALES)

Just one sec.

(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

That's your mum.

Hi.

I know it's your day off

Literally anything.

Toby's been dropped off early.

Do you think you and Noam could hang

Uh, we're just going to the movies.

Can he be dropped off?

Noam has Cathy's number.

Thank you so much.

She's back.

So you've settled on

Are you down?

I... I am so...so down with that.

Yeah.

JULES: Carl's wife OK?

Yeah. Time and all that.

Oh, well.

She can get on with her life.

Yeah, but where she gonna find

another big noodle of a man

(LAUGHS)

Afternoon, officers.

Huh?

They usually get called in

Um, Sharon, I'm assuming?

We got a complaint

Sharon.

Apparently the grown men

are re-traumatising

Haven't you two got

than turn up here,

and embarrass yourselves?

Hmm?

I'm not sure why you'd add that.

If it wasn't for your neighbour,

we'd actually both be working

Dave Dobbyn's playing.

I think Sharon

Yes, she does.

And that's an official warning.

Disturbing the peace, inciting

Machiavellian enactments?

You can't book us

We can, actually.

Consider yourself a hot chick

Happy now?

Yes. (LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

Reckon that'll keep her at bay

LIMA: There you go.

Oh...

Mmm. What do you call that?

Sauce.

Mmm. You said you're a chef, yeah?

Mmm.

Yes.

Do you think that's weird?

I think it's great you're making

Aw.

Especially with everything

I was a mess when Maryann left.

Yeah?

Was it the same with Rob?

Oh. (LAUGHS)

Oh...

I'm sorry.

No. It's fine.

Let's just chill.

Yeah. Good.

OK, so, the story actually was

that I caught Rob seeing sex workers.

Ouch.

I didn't really feel much at all,

Yeah, I bet.

But to be fair, I don't think

I was caught up in kids

So I started a brothel.

Makes perfect sense.

(HALF-LAUGHS)

You know, I think the thing is,

if I could intellectualise the sex

and the blah-blah-blah-blah,

The thing I realised is

it's not always even about sex.

Like, even Rob seeing a sex worker

And that's painful.

I'm sorry.

This is...

No. No, I feel like

(LAUGHS)

But kind of weirdly OK.

Thank you.

Hey. Uh, it's meant to be awesome.

Like, real Tribeca Film Festival

Cool.

Haven't heard of it.

Oh, well, the director's

and he loves to talk

you know, environment, women.

(LAUGHS) Sweet.

Oh, wait, wait, wait.

Daytime movies.

Oh, let's do all of us.

(TAKES PHOTO)

It's so weird,

I didn't even know you guys

(TOBY SPEAKS)

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, of course.

Cool.

Well done, man. You idiot.

(SPEAKS)

I know.

(TEXTS)

(MESSAGE SENDS)

Hope the movie's not shit. (LAUGHS)

(MOBILE PHONE BLEEPS)

Well, it looks like all my friends

Do you think you should go?

Oh...

(MOBILE PHONE BLEEPS)

Maybe, but...

(SPEAKS)

Um, yeah, we can give you a lift

(SPEAKS)

I think I'll take the bus.

Noam...

(SPEAKS)

Do you think he'll be alright?

I did mean it, though.

I do feel like I'm home

I've never had that before.

(SPEAKS)

Shame.

(SPEAKS)

(LAUGHS)

(GASPS FOR BREATH, GAGS)

Are you right?

Are you right?

Toby?

Toby... Hey, are you OK?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Help me! Help me!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

(BRIGHT POP MUSIC PLAYS)

# Oh, damn, you hector me... #

(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

# And decimate those dear to me

# And tease me with your sweet relief

# You're cruel

(SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)

# You tease me with your sweet relief

# Lord Jesus, please, I'm ready

# Oh...

# Oh-oh-oh

# Oh-oh... #

# Really, I'm not ready... #

How's his oxygen?

WOMAN: We had to resuscitate him.

What a shock, huh?

That was a big scare.

But you're all good now, bud. Hmm.

(BIRDSONG)

Oh... How's he doing?

Exhausted.

I bet. God, what a shock!

Yeah, but, um,

Well, he's a tough little trooper.

Don't infantilise him.

Tea?

Coffee?

Lasagne.

What?

You and Noam must be starving.

I was thinking about

Whenever I make it, Vinit always

so, um, I'm guessing it must be

Actually, Jules, you can go.

I know. I just want to be useful.

When have you ever been useful?

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

(DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES)

Mack, um...

Listen, um, I'm gonna need you

Gotta focus on the family right now.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Are you alright, bud?

Yeah, I shouldn't have left them.

Oh, you weren't to know.

Listen, Toby's gonna be fine.

It was just a big fright, that's all.

I pretend he's a normal kid.

He is a normal kid.

He's your smart-ass,

Who could die.

No, don't. Just...

I don't let myself think about it

because I don't want to be sad

(VEHICLE APPROACHES)

Hey.

Oh, hey.

Hey, come here. Come here.

Hey, no. No, no, no.

Oh, it's OK. It's OK.

He's safe, OK?

Don't do that. Alright.

Mm-hm.
