All language subtitles for Derry Girls s02e06 The President.eng

RADIO: The President of the United
States, Bill Clinton,

a committed supporter
of the peace process,

will visit with both sides of the
community during his trip to Belfast

before travelling to Londonderry.

He's here!

He's here! He's landed!

I know he has, Da!
And look at the state of the place!

I better tell Jim across the road!

Christ, I'm at my wits' end!

Firstly, he's not coming to Derry
until tomorrow.

Have you see the heck of those
skirting boards, Gerry?

I'd need a week to tackle them.

And secondly, I think it's unlikely
he'll call to our house.

He might call, Gerry.

Aye, he might take a notion.

I think presidential visits
are quite carefully planned.

I'm not sure there's an awful lot
of room for notion-taking.

Hope you're right, Gerry.
For it's like Beirut in here.

I mean, when was the last time
these were bleached?

I couldn't hand Hillary that.

I'd say she keeps her place
shining, Mary.

Sure she'd put you to shame.

Right, we need to clear this table.
Jim's bringing his equipment over.

What equipment? Them aul
radio transmitters he collects.

Him and Daddy think they can
tap into the CIA's system on them.

Excuse me? Jim really buzzes off
radio contact.

You canna tap the CIA, Joe.

It'll make tracking Clinton down
much easier. Right.

I don't think the CIA enjoy people
tracking the President down.

I think they can get funny
about that type of stuff.

Let them try and bloody stop me.

They will stop you, Joe.
They're the CIA.

I won't miss my chance! Not again!

You hear me, boy?

What the hell is he planning to do?

When JFK came to Dublin, Uncle Colm
met him, and Daddy didn't.

Things are gonna be different
this time, I tell you.

JFK spoke to Colm? Christ, that man
didn't have much luck, did he?

I'm not sure any of us
will get to meet Bill or Hillary.

Some sense at last.

They'll be far too busy.

That's why we've decided
to take Chelsea off their hands.

What? We're gonna bring her to
Lisnagelvin swimming pool.

The wave machine's been fixed.
Lovely.

I hope she remembers
her swimming cap, Erin.

They've got dead strict
about swimming caps.

And that wain has
some head of hair on her.

Dear Jesus.

Any word from Chelsea? Not yet.

And we sent that letter
over a week ago.

You're sure you got
the address right?

Chelsea Clinton,
the White House, America.

It just doesn't make any sense.
Did you send it first class?

We're not made of money, Michelle.

Christmas time
Silent night

Mistletoe and wine
Holy night

Children singing Christian rhyme

With logs on the fire
and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice
in the good that we see...

That totally just wrecked my buzz.

Great stuff altogether.

A fitting rendition of
what I consider to be

the most godawful song
ever written.

Just one announcement today, girls.

I'm sure many of you have guessed
what it's about.

Although tomorrow is not officially
a public holiday,

schools across the city
have decided to view it as such.

Because tomorrow, the President of
the United States of America

is coming here, to Derry.

You're a little young to perhaps
understand the enormity of this.

A few short months ago,
this would have been unimaginable.

But here we are.

And I for one can barely believe it.

I mean, people in this place
stop killing each other

for five minutes and the whole world
loses the absolute run of itself.

This visit concerns me
for a number of reasons, girls,

but mostly because I am scared
it will give the Pope ideas,

and that's the last thing I need.
No.

Our Lady Immaculate
will play no part in this farce.

And I expect to see you all here
tomorrow morning, business as usual.

Is that clear?

Is that clear?

ALL: Yes.

The Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

She can't do this.
She simply cannot do this.

Well, she's done it, Clare.

But it's history!
She's making us miss history!

Och, but I really wanted to find out

what that Cromwell fella
got up to next.

I really enjoy him.

Not history class, Orla!
Real history!

History being made!

And Irish people aren't allowed to
enjoy Oliver Cromwell, Orla. Why?

Because he was a fucking arsehole.

Look, Bill doesn't even get here
till four o'clock tomorrow.

"Bill"? Who are you? His Ma?

We've got plenty of time,
is all I'm saying.

Do you know how packed that
Guildhall Square is gonna be, James?

You'd have to camp overnight
just to get a glimpse of him.

Chelsea will sort us out.

Och, I'm not even sure
I trust Chelsea any more.

Aye, Chelsea might be flaky.

She does have crafty eyes.

OK, I'm not comfortable with
the Chelsea-bashing, girls.

This is the biggest thing
that's ever happened here.

That's ever likely to happen here.
We should be a part of it.

We will be.

Are you suggesting we play truant?

OK, normal people don't call it
that, but yes, yes I am.

You know what, girls?

Sometimes in order to do
the right thing,

you have to do the wrong thing.

And on this occasion,
right is wrong and wrong is right.

What the fuck are you on about?

Are you gonnae sack off school
or not? Let's do it.

That'll be ?1.99.

Right.

Is there some sort of a problem
here, girls?

Not a problem as such,
more of a question, really.

And you think I'm here
to answer questions, do you?

Who, am I? Magnus fucking Magnusson?

He doesn't answer questions,
he asks them.

Pipe the fuck down.

It's just, it's pink, white
and purple, Dennis.

So? Well, it should be red, white
and blue.

Says who? The rest of the world.

There's also quite
a few stars missing.

No there's not.
There's only 30 stars here,

I mean, there should be 50, just
because the stars represent states,

so... Some of them left.
Some states left?

That's right.
Some states left America? Yep.

When did this happen?

The other day.
God, that's desperate.

I dunno. I just feel like
if 20 states left the USA,

we might have heard about it.

Ah, they didn't want to make it
into a big thing.

So these are the new, modern,
up-to-date flags -

they've just brought them out. OK.

It's just, well, I'm not convinced
that's actually true.

Why would I lie? Because you bought
a fuckload of dud flags

and you're trying to get rid of
them? GET OUT!

What first attracted him to
a career in retail, do you think?

Hello there.

Why don't you hop in?

Come on now.

Don't be shy.

Help! Stranger! Stranger danger!

Jesus Christ, Erin.

Help!
This woman is trying to abduct us!

Help! Fire! There's a fire!

Fire? What the fuck
are you on about?

It gets more attention.
I read it somewhere.

Kidnapper! Help! Fire!
Help! There's a kidnapper on fire!

Will yous all just shut the fuck up?
It's fine.

She's not a kidnapper!

Well, who is she?

My Aunt Cathy.

Hello, Mum.

MUSIC PLAYING

What exactly is the plan over there?
They're trying to discover

the location of
the Presidential base camp.

Does that mean which hotel
he's staying in? I think so, aye.

DOOR OPENS
What kept you two?

We have some serious scandal, Mammy.

I'm not interested in any
of your aul schoolgirl gossip, Erin.

I am. We just met James's mammy.

Cathy Maguire's back? Really?

She tried to set us on fire.

She did what? She didn't.

Jesus, but she's no shame.

Tell me this, wains.
How were the eyebrows?

What do you mean? The eyebrows.
Were they looking well?

I didn't really notice her eyebrows.

Cathy Maguire had the best eyebrows
in Derry back in her day.

She'd could have given Joan Crawford

a run for her money,
isn't that right, Mary?

I've no time for Cathy Maguire.

The woman abandoned her own wain,
Sarah.

She always was one cold,
self-serving wee madam.

I'm not talking about her.
I'm talking about her eyebrows.

Cathy and her eyebrows
are two separate entities.

All right, don't be getting
worked up. Well, I just think

you should be able to compliment
a woman's eyebrows

without having her personality
dragged into it.

DOORBELL
Fine.

Her eyebrows were exceptional.
Thank you.

It's Uncle Colm!

Dear God, no.

Everything alL right, Colm?

Oh, God, aye.

Well, the aul knee's
giving me a bit of jip,

but sure I'll not bore you
with the details. I doubt that.

I felt a twinge there this morning
and I says to myself,

says I, "Colm, you'll have to
get that seen to.

"You can't let that go."

For, and you'll maybe not remember
this girls, but Maggie Murphy

felt a twinge on a Monday,

and on Thursday
of the very same week,

sure didn't she drop dead
at the bingo.

And her sitting on a full house,
too.

But sure, you can't take it
with you, as they say.

God rest her soul.

Is there something we can do
for you, Colm?

Oh, I just called round to help
with this CIA business.

Who told you about that?

I did, Joe.

Why?

Look, Colm's met JFK.

He has experience with presidents,
he'll know what to do.

No chance! I'm sorry, Colm,
but you can't be part of this.

If you meet Bill Clinton,
you'll be a president up.

You'll have two presidents
to my one.

I cannot have you getting
ahead of me, president-wise.

One of his presidents is dead,
Daddy.

It still counts. Ssh!

I'll only have to even things up
again. Sssh, Joe!

I can't spend the rest of my life
traipsing around

after bloody presidents.
I've other things to be at, girls.

Shut up, Joe!

What the blazes is wrong with you?
Mouth!

I think I've got something.

Don't toy with me now, Jim.

RADIO CRACKLING, INDISTINCT VOICE

Aye, it was a CIA agent, all right.

He said they're taking Bill
back to base.

And I know where it is!

We need to move quickly.

You still OK to drive us? What?

We need someone to stay in the car,
in case things don't go to plan.

So a getaway driver, essentially.

We're talking worst-case scenario.

We're talking no case scenario!

MUSIC PLAYING

It just doesn't make any sense,
Jim.

I heard him say it.
As clear as day, it was.

Burt? Why would they bring him
to Burt?

That's what's so clever about it.

Nobody's gonna go looking
for the President of the USA

in Burt, now, are they?

Sure if you went about saying
Bill Clinton was in Burt,

people would think you were
clean mad. Precisely.

Look, lads, if you want
my opinion... We don't.

Grand. This Clinton boyo

is actually America's
42nd president,

which is interesting now,
because JFK, well, he was the 35th.

Why is that interesting?

Well, I suppose it's not really.

Sometimes I'll just say something

to get me from one sentence to the
other, Joe, you know how it is.

It should be just up here
on the left.

I'm not sure what number Nixon was,
now.

Or your man, what do you call him,
the beardy fella in the hat.

The one who knocked the aul slavery
on the head? Lincoln.

The very boy.

But then there was the 27th...

America's 30th.

And then there was the lad they
named all the vacuum cleaners after.

Jesus wept.

How much further. Jim?

It should be just up here
on the left.

We're back in the same place.

And Kennedy, of course,
the poor critter. How?

Lovely fella.
Hands on him like shovels.

How the feck are we back
in the same fecking place!

What's going on?

I've driven 178 miles

and I'm back where I was
five fecking hours ago, Joe,

that's what's going on!
You stupid bloody eejit.

Thon Reagan character,
he was another.

Stop listing presidents, Colm!

He'll list presidents
if he wants to list presidents!

Ah, there it is! Roscarna Road.

That's it, that's what they said.

Well spotted, Jim.
Good man yourself, Jim.

Where would we be without you, Jim?

But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more...

Daddy and Gerry not back yet?

They must have had a few drinks
and lost track of time.

Sure, you know what Bill's like.

God, aye, any excuse to whip out
the aul' saxophone.

We better hit the Guildhall.
A bit early, are you not?

Clare's been there since
five this morning, Mammy. It's gonna be jammed.

Anything from Chelsea, girls?

Not a dickie bird, Mammy.
It's her loss.

That wave machine
is absolutely cracker.

Ach well, at least yous were given
the day off, sure, that's something.

We weren't given the day off, Mammy.
We're playing truant.

Very good, Orla.

Truant. What is she not, Mary?

DOORBELL RINGS
It's open. 'Mon in.

All right?

I hope you don't mind,
Mrs Quinn, but...

Ach, Cathy, it's yourself.

Long time, girls.

It is indeed.

And fair play to you, Cathy,

you've kept them eyebrows shipshape,
so you have.

Credit where credit's due.
Ach, you're too kind, Sarah.

I'm serious, they're in great nick.
That must be some comfort to you.

I'm sorry?
We heard about your wee divorce.

Nightmare.

Yeah, it was a difficult decision,
but Paul, my ex,

well, he just became so controlling.

Jesus. Really?

He was unbearable towards the end,

it was always, "Oh, Cathy, why did
you stay out all night?"

Or, "Who was that man you were
having dinner with, Cathy?"

He was very insecure.

Wonder why.

James' father was the same.

I just seem to attract
the possessive, jealous types.

I don't know what it is.
The eyebrows.

Anyway, I hate to impose on you,
but I need to make a quick call,

and unbelievably, my sister
doesn't have a phone.

She got rid of it when we racked up
that massive bill

ringing Russell Grant's
horoscope hotline.

He didn't see that coming!
James said you wouldn't mind if I...

Of course not. Work away.

You're a brick.
Let me just find my filofax.

A brick?

Are you staying with
your Deirdre, then?

Yes, I am. It's a bloody nightmare,
if I'm being honest.

I'd forgotten just how small
these little houses are.

I really don't know how you do it.
Oh, we struggle through, Cathy.

In our teeny-tiny house.

But it's worth it if I get to see
my big, handsome boy!

He's going to be the only man
in my life from now on.

Aye, right.
I've just missed him so much.

Well, you did dump him here
quite a long time ago.

Mum's had a lot going on.

Yeah. I've actually just started
my own business.

It's been a real passion project,
a real labour of love!

And it's really starting
to take off now, so... Right.

And what sort of area is it?

Self-adhesive labels.

Stickers?

I design high-end
self-adhesive labels.

You make stickers.
For bespoke gift packages.

You're a sticker maker.
No, they're not stickers exactly.

Would there be much money
in sticker making, Cathy?

They are not stickers!
Labels. They're labels.

I think it's gonna do really well.

We better get going
before Clare cacks herself.

Go on, love, you do your thing.
See you later.

Here before you head, I got you
a couple of American flags.

They're on the sideboard there.
Thank you, Sarah.

They're the new ones, so they are.
They've only just brought them out.

Yes!

KNOCKING AT DOOR

Bill?

KNOCKING CONTINUES

You in there?

No sign of life, Joe.

What are ye at?

I thought I told you
to stay in the car.

Would it be worth maybe
checking next door, Jim?

Right, so the Clintons are staying
in a taxi rank

in the arsehole of nowhere
is the thinking now, is it?

It is, Gerry, aye.

Fantastic.

MUSIC:

Excuse me, son.
Where to?

We were just wondering,

have you seen the Clintons
knocking about around here?

The Clintons?

We have reason to believe
they're staying in this vicinity.

What would the Clintons
be doing in Burt?

Heading to the chapel, Bill?

Aye. Anybody free to pick up Bill
from base? Over.

Anybody near base at all? Over.

OVER RADIO: All right, back in five.
Five minutes, Bill. Good.

Now, Jim, would you be open to
the following possibility at all,

that it may not have been
a CIA agent you were picking up

on that transmitter of yours,
that there is in fact a good chance

it was a taxi dispatcher from Burt

ordering a car here to bring Bill
to mass?

He did have a strong Donegal accent,
now that you mention it.

Jesus, Jim!

MUSIC:

It's the best spot.
I got THE best spot.

What happened to your face?
See that bitch over there?

That wee girl?

She tried to muscle in,
things got ugly.

She'll think twice next time.

You didn't fight that wain,
did you, Clare?

I did fight that wain, Erin,

and I'll fight that wain again
if I have to.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

People have been circling
this spot like vultures.

I've managed to hold them
off so far.

But it's only gonna get tougher.
We must show no weakness.

We must be as one.

Are you on glue?
Come on, link up!

Come on, James!

I need to talk to you.
To all of you.

Later, James.
It can't wait.

Just fuck up and link on.

I'm leaving.

I'm going back to London with Mum.

When?

Now.

I have to go now.
The taxi's booked.

I'm sorry.
It was all decided so quickly...

I don't understand.

He's not serious.

I am.

You can't leave, James.

Look, this was always gonna happen.
This was never my real life.

It was just something
that got in the way of it.

What are you talking about?
You love it here.

I'm not sure I do. I think I've just
developed Stockholm syndrome.

Catch yourself on. You've never
even been to Switzerland.

Listen. I'll never forget
this place.

But I have to go home now.

It's time.

Goodbye, girls.

Oh, I don't fucking think so
somehow, dickface.

Oi, wank features!

Michelle, please.

"Goodbye, girls"? Wise the fuck up!

What do you want me to say?

She'll let you down again,
you do realise that?

She's asked me to be a partner
in her business, actually, Michelle, so...

Now it makes sense.
She needs you to help flog her fucking stickers.

Self-adhesive labels.

Free labour,
that's what she's after.

She only thinks about herself,
James.

And when it doesn't work out,
what then?

It will work out!
Anyway, it's not like I belong here.

I never did.

That's not true.
You're a Derry Girl now, James.

Piss off.

I'm serious. It doesn't matter that
you've got that stupid accent,

or that your bits
are different to my bits,

but because being a Derry Girl,
well, it's a fucking state of mind.

And you're one of us.

I have to do this.

But I don't want you to.

She's my mum, Michelle.

Well, fuck off, then!

MUSIC: "Stay Another Day"
by East 17

Baby, if you've
got to go away...

This is shocking.

I mean, what is everybody
playing at?

What are we playing at? I'm sorry?

Come on, Jenny,
for once the world'll be watching us

for all the right reasons.
You'll get into trouble, Aisling.

I don't care.

Don't think I could take the pain

Won't you stay another day

Oh, don't leave me alone like this

Don't you say it's the final kiss

Won't you stay another day...

CROWD CHANT: We want Bill!

What are you doing here?

You told us we had to come in,
Sister. Ah, for God's sake, Jenny.

You need to learn when to push back.

What? Get out of here. G'wan now.

CROWD CHANT

MUSIC: "Caribbean Blue"
by Enya

You'll be glad to get out of
this dive, love. I know I am.

CHEERING

And now, ladies and gentlemen,

it is my pleasure to introduce

the President of the
United States of America!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I see him! I see him!
You're facing the wrong way, Orla.

No, no, look, it's James!

INDISTINCT

What's he saying? I don't know.

I - AM - A DERRY GIRL!
A fucking prick is what you are! >

BILL CLINTON: Standing here
in front of the Guildhall,

looking out over these historic
walls, I see a peaceful city.

A safe city, a hopeful city,

full of young people
that should have a peaceful

and prosperous future here,
where their roots and families are.

That is what I see, today with you.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And so I ask you to build on
the opportunity you have before you.

To believe that the future
can be better than the past.

To work together because
you have so much more to gain

by working together
than by drifting apart.

Have the patience to work for
a just and lasting peace.
