# Hi, girl

# Have you received it all?

# You know you don't have to say

# I will walk away now

# Now, did you forget about me?

# You don't have to say

# I know what you did

# Stop, please

# Try at least to care

# What's up with that guy?

# Don't you want to date them all?

# Right, sure

# You're the one to blame

# Face it, bitch, you lied to me

# I will kill your daddy... #

SIREN WAILS

Morning, everyone. Morning ma'am.

How many people screwed up my
crime scene this morning, then?

Victim fell from the second floor.

And there's a note.

Back of the head
smashed like a watermelon.

Never seen that before.

Right, then.

Who should I speak to first?

The guy in the shark onesie or
the woman dressed as a unicorn?

I'll handle him. Where's the woman
who found the body?

The COO. Name's Samantha Thompson.

What are you thinking?

Suicide?

Accident?

Start hauling people in
for interviews.

What a mess.

Here. Come on.

Women like pills.
Men like blowing their brains out.

Hanging's a bit of a leveller,
but jumping...

No, that's for bridges
and high buildings,

not for reception.

Something's off.

We all know it.

Now, if you're not involved,
you have nothing to worry about,

I promise you.

But you HAVE to talk to me, Sam.

You have to trust me.

I want you to start
at the beginning.

Can you do that for me?

The beginning.

# I may get weary

# Women do get weary... #

Sam!

# ..Wearing the same
shabby dress ... #

You'll be late!

MUSIC CONTINUES IN HEADPHONES

Come on! Five more minutes.

Eat your breakfast or there'll be
no swimming after school.

You, OK? Bit on edge.

New HR girl starts today.
Where's Gemma?

She's started cycling.

Reducing fossil fuels.

You'd best be off.
I'll handle this little demon.

See you. Agh!

One more mouthful

and then you can go
and clean your teeth.

PHONE: This is just a quick
affirmation

that can be done any time anywhere.

I am enough.

I am enough.

I am all powerful.

I am all powerful.

I am...

Good morning, Fly Dynamic,
how can I help you?

Maya? Hi.

So, well, this is a bit of
a change for you,

from the Big Smoke to here.

I'm looking forward to
the change of pace.

We have a unique family culture
here at Fly Dynamic.

Most of us have been here since Owen
and Gareth took over the business.

We started as a market stall,
and now we rival JD Sports.

Thanks. I can't wait to join
the ride.

You'll probably see
a lot of activity

over the next few weeks,
as we plan to go public

and float on the stock exchange.

I never thought when I started here
at 16 that we'd go global.

16? You've never worked
anywhere else?

We pride ourselves on our
exceptionally low staff turnover.

That's not always a good thing.

What do you mean?

Well, the workforce can get stale.

"Institutionalised"
we call it in HR.

But my speciality is identifying
issues like this

and changing the work culture
for the better.

We don't need to change
the work culture.

You know, I'm just...

I'm just here to ensure the
continued success of the company...

You're here because the bloke
who had your job fucked up.

Don't do the same.

Looking for the ladies?

No, no, no, no. I'm just...

Just checking the quality
of the mops in this cupboard.

Oh. One of the first things I like
to do in a new work place.

Just this way, ladies and gents.
Thank you.

Owen Jenkins. CEO of Fly Dynamic.
Nice to meet you. I'm Maya.

Oh, and this is my brother, Gareth,
our chief financial officer.

Hold on a sec, Carys. Hello.
Great to meet you.

Sorry, I've just got to deal
with my wife crying hysterically

about our daughter's first day
at nursery.

Owen's sending Ness round

to pick you up before you start
looking at baby pictures. I am?

Bye. Bye.

Our new gender neutral bathrooms
are just round the corner,

second on the left. Thank you.
Very nice to meet you, Maya.

Aw. Does it hurt?

I enjoy pain.

I like the feeling of
the needle when it slides in.

All done.
Any fillers for you today?

My 10am just cancelled
so I've got plenty of time.

No, I'm good.

Carys, you're up next.

No, no, no, no.

Oh, Carys, come on.
I'm paying.

Well, Owen is.

It's time to celebrate.
Juno's at nursery,

you've got your life back.

Botox and a boozy pub lunch.

You'll feel like a new woman.

Might even spice things up.

Yeah, I don't think my
nasolabial lines

are the reason my sex life
is non-existent.

Oh, still?

Oh, it's only been a few months.

It's not...only been a few months.

What do you mean?

We've had problems for years.
It's never been easy.

Well, that's just men.

It's the newness
that turns them on.

Just ignore them completely

and then shag 'em like
a porn star

just when they're
starting to despair.

You're young.

You've got amazing tits.
I'd do you.

Now, how's my face?

If any of our advisers
had walked in on this,

we'd be eating shit right now.

Flotation would be over.
I hope you realise this.

What were they thinking?
To be fair, it's a new CCTV system.

They can't have been expecting
an audience at that time of night.

I was expecting
a few nicked pencils,

not the intimate view of
a team member's penis.

Obviously, you didn't include
the appropriate language

in the non-disclosure agreement.
I'll add a "no shagging" clause.

Right, well, what's the next step?

I don't know. I don't even know
why I'm running this company

half the time. What is an IPO?

Thanks for that helpful insight,
Gaz. Let's run it through HR.

I'll get Duncan onto it.
Why not the new girl?

It's going to have
to go through her anyway.

Optics won't look good
if we exclude her.

Look, we can't take the risk.

This is a critical time
for the IPO... Don't!

Maya! Look, I'm sorry to do this
to you on day one.

We need to talk about Tess Jones.

MOBILE PHONE RINGS

KNOCK ON DOOR
Tess! Get up!

I'm sick.

SHE SIGHS

If you can shag,
you can work.

Up!

DOOR CLOSES

SHE SIGHS

Back at the fags. Hm-mm.

How's the new HR girl?

HR director.

Shiny.

What's that mean?

It means I would have preferred
to have a man.

You hired her.
Why did you do that, again?

Come on, Gaz.
I didn't have a choice.

We had to have a woman,

especially after everything with
Hugh and now with the floatation.

If you say so. Men are like
unicorns in Human Resources.

She's got great references,
a degree in psychology.

I mean, God knows what she's doing
here, never mind HR.

You're the expert.

This company's roaring into

the 21st century since
we promoted you, Sam.

20 years after everyone else.

Look, don't try and shag her

unless you want a lecture
on feminism.

HR now!

You got any paracetamol?

Why do you do this to yourself?

Don't say anything I wouldn't.
Come on.

Khalil, you're next.

Oh. Hi, Tess. I'm Maya.
Nice to meet you.

I'll be sitting in. Oh... Actually,
would you mind leaving us to it?

I understand I'm new, but, legally,
we have to have confidentiality.

SHE SCOFFS

Thank you.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Get this changed.

Now, erm,

Khalil is a junior member
of the team,

which makes you his superior.

While we can't control what
happens outside the workplace,

what happens inside it is...
is very much our concern.

Have you been drinking at work?

Nah.

I just drink so much at night
it carries me through the day.

Cost-effective.

OK. Erm, I'm...

..going to look into
an occupational health referral

and, in the meantime,
why don't we come up with

a wellness action plan together?

Yeah, I can see why they hired you.

You're just ticking
all the boxes, aren't you?

Shall we talk about
reasonable adjustments?

It's time to change the UK's
attitude towards mental health.

I haven't had a chance
to look through your file

but something tells me you've had
this conversation before.

How can we change
the outcome this time?

Maybe I'm a lost cause.

Tess, we are preparing
to take this company public,

which means everything
and everyone is under scrutiny.

This kind of behaviour
could prove disastrous

as we're trying to convince
the world we're a happy,

healthy company that they should
invest in.

There is nothing happy or healthy
about this place.

Do you want to talk about it?

Everything you say in here is
completely confidential.

MUFFLED VOICES

My friend died.

Ten years ago today.

Sorry for your loss.

I think it's important
that you make people aware

that this is a difficult time
of year for you.

Oh, they're aware.

They just don't give a shit.

If I dropped dead tomorrow, they
would be dancing on my grave.

Sometimes I think about it.

Bottle of whisky, some pills,
open a vein.

Spill it out all over Sam's desk.

Blood, vomit.

Piss.

The problem is, I wouldn't be around
to see her face when she found me.

I would hate to miss that.

Screw this. Tess... Hey...
Hey, I'm trying to help you,

I don't want you to lose your job.
They'll never get rid of me.

I know too much.

You should've invited her to lunch.

What, so we could talk about
menstruation?

Compare downward dogs?

Because it's her first day
and she doesn't know anyone.

I'll leave the social graces
to you and Owen.

How many female friends do
you have? Loads. Like who? Beth.

She's your nanny. Carys.

Carys only rings you
when she wants to snoop on me.

She called me yesterday. Why?
I don't know. I ignored it.

I do not enjoy talking
to your 1950s housewife, Gareth.

We have nothing in common.

There's no rule that says you have
to like your friends.

I should have married you.

Don't.

Fancy meeting you here.

We're here every day.

Where's my sexy husband?

Outside, negotiating some
international jockstrap deal.

Where's my wife? Did you eat her?

Hm.

I'll, uh, see you back
at the office.

Whatever's going on
with you needs to stop.

What?

Hire a hooker, take some Viagra,
but get it out of your system.

HE SCOFFS

Because your wife is
getting suspicious.

Have fun with Tess?

Um...I gave her a warning.

Hmm. I'm sure that will make
all the difference.

Is she an alcoholic?

Probably. Most people are.

I'd feel more comfortable if
we got her some professional help.

Perhaps a therapist?
We've tried that.

I have a hunch it's
a mental health issue

and I'm not sure my predecessor
handled it correctly.

He handled it.

So why would Fly be opposed to

a member of staff
receiving counselling?

There was just no point.

No point to what?

Tess going anywhere.

She'd been in and out of treatment
for years.

So did you make the call
not to get Tess any help

because you didn't see the point,

or because Maya didn't see
the point?

Was there a reason you didn't want
Maya to pursue treatment for Tess?

It's not black and white.

I need a piss.

It's a fucking mess.

It's gone wrong.

Really wrong.

I need help.

Hey-up. Oh, hi.

Been looking for you all over.
Here you go.

Oh.

I didn't expect this. Thank you.

Sorry, they're not for you.

We need someone to deliver them.
Oh. Who are they for?

A girl who used to work here.
She...she died.

They've got pineapples and figs
and... Ooh, blueberries. It's fancy.

You mean Tess's friend?

Yeah. I can't walk into
a grieving family's home

with a bunch of bananas.

I would do it for you
but, um, my crown's come out

so I've got an emergency dental
appointment straight after work.

Fine. I'll talk to Sam.

Please could you get me
Tess's file? Please. Yeah.

Why don't we run away together?

Thailand. Open a beach bar.

Owen would have your credit cards
frozen before we reached the M6.

Owen doesn't know about
my fuck-off fund.

Secret bank account
in case of emergencies.

What kind of emergencies
are you anticipating?

I don't know.

No, no, go on, please tell me.

I want to know what
a catastrophe looks like

in the world of Gareth Jenkins.

What, your favourite craft brewery
shuts down?

Or Pornhub goes offline?

You're very funny.

Owen cancels your trust fund
and demotes you?

Owen doesn't run my life.
I am my own man, you know.

Well, then, maybe you should try
standing up to him occasionally,

especially when he decides
to involve Maya

in things that do not concern her.
Oh, shut up!

Sorry. It's just...

Why don't you take me seriously?

See you tomorrow.

SOFTLY: Fucking hell...

DOOR OPENS

Tess, uh,
flips out every so often.

Especially round this time
of year. I'm not surprised.

How did this friend pass?
Nobody knows. A terrible tragedy.

Amy was a pill head.
Drugs and stuff, you know.

If you snort coke and drop a pill,

you can always forget
what it's like to be stuck here.

It's not that bad, is it?

Well, Cheshire's OK,
but it's a little town.

Everyone knows each other.
No-one leaves.

And there's a lot of sheep,
but not a lot to do.

Plenty of drugs.

Oh, I wouldn't know.
I tend to stay in and cook dinner,

watch telly with my boyfriend.

We're a bit old
and lesbian these days.

Is this it?

There's nothing in here.

I-I'm off.
I'll see you tomorrow.

SHE HUMS

KEYS CLATTER

Hey! Hmm.

You look nice. Thank you, darling.

Where's Danny?

He's at computer club.

Ooh, we need to nip that in the bud.

It's not good for him sitting on
his arse with spotty boys all day.

Your mother's here.

Now?

Yep.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT
Mum!

What a lovely surprise.

If you won't come to me
then I'll come to you.

You certainly will.

And, uh, how's your companion?

Lydia's fine, thank you for asking.

Would you like to stay
for dinner, Anita? What is it?

Quinoa with black beans
and avocado,

and locally sourced
organic chicken.

No, thank you.

I'm here to discuss
the new HR girl. Uh, WOMAN.

I hear she's definitely a girl.

Look, Mum, I'm tired.
I've just got in from work.

What could be more refreshing than
time spent with family?

What is it you want to discuss?

A female HR director makes us look
good during the floatation.

The company is teeming
with lawyers

and accountants and analysts,

and Sam's handling
everything perfectly.

Now that Hugh's gone, we've...
Staff fornicating in the boardroom!

I will handle Khalil.

It's not Khalil I'm worried about.

I'll have a glass of wine,
please, Ness. Red.

Yeah.

Not the cheap stuff.

DOORBELL RINGS

We've never seen you before.

They usually send that gay bloke.

I'm new. Oh.

We've never had an apology
from Fly Dynamic.

Decade later, no apology.

Why didn't anyone from management
go to her funeral?

Why didn't they come to see us?

It's like she didn't matter.

I think the company
was probably trying not to

intrude on your grief.

It's really difficult to know...

She changed when she started there.

Was out all the time.

Dumped her boyfriend.

Reeked of cigarettes and booze.

I can understand how difficult
that must have been.

They should never have let girls
that young out with them.

It's disgusting. Giving them drugs.

I... Honestly, I don't know anything
about that, but...

..I'm here to listen

and to hold space for you both

if...if that would help.

Hold space? What are you
talking about? Rachel...

No, I'm sorry... No, I just...

I just meant I'm here
to support YOU.

We don't need help from you lot.

OK?

Maybe you should go.

Give us a puff.

Bloody hell, Gemma!
You scared the life out of me.

Thought you were out,
rebelling against extinction?

Nah.

Did you nick this from me bag?
No, I did not.

Beth did. Oh, great.
I've got two of you on me case.

Clinic called.

Suggested it wouldn't do any harm
to do a family session.

No. It's just a quick check-in.

I haven't been in trouble
for months.

Then the family therapy's
obviously working.

Our future is fundamentally
uncertain. How do you keep going,

knowing your grandchildren
won't have a world to inherit?

The appointment's tomorrow
after school. Please, Mum...

It is non negotiable.

OK, I'll go there
but only if it's just me.

I'm not going for a creepy
group session with you two.

I'm proud of you.

You've worked really hard
this last year.

Don't start with
the positive affirmation bollocks.

It don't work on me.

Did the deceased have any issues
at work? Personality conflicts?

That kind of thing?

The deceased?

We're still waiting for official
confirmation from a family member.

Can you answer the question,
please, Sam?

Issues? Work?

You'd have to ask HR.

FRAME CLATTERS

DOORBELL RINGS

Oh, no. Audrey. Audrey. Audrey!
Can you sign for these?

No, they're...
They're not for me. I just...

I just moved in.
No-one knows my address.

Maya Benshaw?

Yeah.

Audrey.

CAT MEOWS

Audrey. Oh, good, you're home.

I was hoping you'd be in. Hi.

Liz. Liz. Live opposite.
I came to invite you to Cheese Club.

We'd just opened the wine
and it hit me,

I should've invited Maya,
she doesn't know anyone.

Yeah. No, I'm...
I'm not dressed for it.

Oh, it's just us girls.
No-one's judging.

Come on.

And then Benedict threw himself
face down in the cereal aisle

and started screaming,
so I called Dom,

I put it on loudspeaker,

and I held up the phone
for literally a minute.

And then I said,
"This is your child.

"This is what YOU brought into
the world.

"If YOU think you're ever
getting S-E-X again,

"you can rethink that notion."

Do you have children, Maya?

No.

Married?

Separated. Aw.

Freeze your eggs
before it's too late.

Ness! Sorry, Maya. Ness
is not renowned for her tact.

And yet you all worship me,
regardless.

This Wensleydale tastes
a bit vacuum-packed.

Who brought it? Own up.

What do you do for work, Maya?

Human resources.

Very boring, I'm afraid.

I just, um... I just moved here
from London for a job.

Oh, you're Hugh's replacement.

MAYA LAUGHS

I like to think
I have other qualities

but, yes, I'm also known as
Hugh's replacement.

Oh, well, Hugh's lovely.

Everyone was so sad
when he got fired.

He wasn't fired.

Well, what else would you call it?

Beenleigh Blue, girls?

HE GROANS

Oh, no.

No. No.

Juno's in the next room. I can't
have her little face in my head

with my penis in your mouth.

But it's been four months.

It hasn't been four months.

Look, is this about my weight?

Because Ness is getting me
a discount at the gym.

It is not because of your weight.
We have a three-year-old.

I have a stressful job. I'm tired.
I read online that if we...

Carys, let it go.

Love, I'm not judging.

You're making me sound like
some kind of freak.

Well, talk to me, then.

I am not having this conversation!

DOOR SLAMS

SHE SIGHS

I met Hugh's replacement today.

Maya? Hm. Cheese Club.

What were you thinking?

What do you mean?

Hiring someone who asks questions.

Tell me your nan isn't going to
walk in. Put the latch on.

Nothing stops Nana.

You got your suit ready
for Saturday?

What's Saturday?
My cousin's wedding.

I told you I was a maybe.

All you want to do is
shag and smoke weed.

We could actually leave this room

and, I don't know, put on clothes.
Go out for a drink once in a while.

OK, OK.

I will do it for you.

But this doesn't mean
we're in a relationship.

Hanging out five nights
a week isn't a relationship?

If it's not on the 'gram
nothing's official.

What's this?

So, um, I've identified
several areas for improvement.

The main ones are hot topics
such as racism, sexism,

casual touching.

A clear and definable
complaints protocol.

Oh, and I've commissioned
a Mr Whippy van

to be outside all day Friday.

The first Fridays are always
a bit of fun.

First Friday...?

First Fridays of the month.

Like Monday Funday...except Friday.

I can't decide if I'm impressed by
your assertiveness

or if you piss me off.

OK.

Um...

Where does everyone go
at lunchtime?

Most people eat at their desks

so they can sod off home
an hour early.

Oh.

It's really important for staff
to have leisure time together

to build relationships and trust.

You don't do any team building?
Bonding exercises?

Let's start slowly with Mr Whippy,

and then we can work our way up
to group masturbation.

Can we talk about Tess?

What about her?

I'm concerned that she might
harm herself.

She's hinted at suicidal ideation.

Write a report. Put it on my desk.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

No, I used to be
a holiday rep in Magaluf.

I think that's where I get
my interpersonal skills from.

There's something bothering me about
the preliminary forensic report.

Have you read it?

Seemed pretty straightforward
to me.

Well, there's no DNA under
the fingernails. Right.

There's no contusions.

There's no offensive
or defensive injuries

other than those sustained
by the fall.

Blood spatter's consistent.

Lividity and hypostasis -
appropriate.

And the rigor mortis seems about
right. Nothing suspicious.

Ever been called out
to an attempted suicide?

Yeah, well, when I first started,

I trained in prevention
and negotiation.

So when someone threatened
to kill themselves,

I got called in to talk them down.
How was it?

Stressful.
Rapes and murder are my thing.

Love 'em.

But suicide? Nope, that's tough.

What's your point?

People don't just do it.

They... They gather their courage,

they talk themselves into it,

they agonise over their decision,
sometimes for hours.

That could've happened.
We don't know.

OK, well,
why are there no fingerprints

on the balcony the victim
supposedly jumped from?

No DNA.

Nothing.

Doesn't add up.

MUFFLED VOICES AND LAUGHTER

There is a total lush
for you at reception.

A rep? Can you brush them off,
please?

Says he knows you.

So who's the hottie?

I don't know.

And don't use terms like
"hottie" and "lush".

It's marginalising.

Hey... How did you find me?

Wait, what?
How did you find me?

Well, I was...
I was up north for work

and your mum mentioned
you worked...

Sorry. Erm, bad idea.
I just wanted to wish you luck.

Is everything OK? Fine.

Can we get a glass of water?

She gets a little bit anxious
sometimes. Thank you.

You look good.

Healthy.

You were too thin before.

I will file for
a restraining order.

Saying what, Maya?

That I loved you,
that I looked after you,

that I gave you everything
you wanted

and you just walked out on me
without even leaving a note?

Here you go.

Thanks.

Maya...

Oh! Sorry. I didn't realise
you were there. I'm just...

You OK?

Yeah.

Come on, sit down.

DRINK POURS

There we go.

Oh... I shouldn't really,
but, erm...

Ooh!

That's the spirit.

I get the feeling
he doesn't approve.

Oh, that's my dad.

He didn't approve of much,
to be honest.

He'd be horrified
to know we make more money

from our sweat-wicking yoga pants
made from recycled ocean plastic

than footie shirts.

Don't diss the yoga pants.
I've got ten pairs.

I'm only here for
the staff discount.

So, how are you finding us?

Are we a lost cause?

Ooh...

Relishing the challenge.

Don't feel alone.

I know we may seem like
a parochial bunch

but we're actually quite warm
and fuzzy

beneath that patriarchal,
capitalist exterior.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

BOTTLE CLINKS

So, is it normal to drink in
the workplace?

OK. What about drugs?

Sex?

All just a regular part of
the workday at Fly?

Look, I am here voluntarily.
Don't dick me around.

I'm just trying to get a complete
picture of the workplace.

It's irrelevant. Is it?

Why are we wasting our time?
She doesn't know anything.

She's hiding something.

DOOR CLOSES

Audrey?

Maya. SOFTLY: Oh, shit.

Hi, Liz.

I'm so sorry, I'm really tired
and I just need to get to bed.

I'm not a massive fan of cheese
either, to be honest.

Cheese Club isn't on Thursdays,
silly. I just wanted to tell you...

I just left my mum on the phone
so I'm just...

No, your friend...

..took your spares
from the plant pot.

# I've been posing with red skies

# Retweeting picket signs

# Put my name on petitions

# But I won't change my mind

# I am keeping up appearances

# Damn, thank God I've got my vice

# The dopamine tuition
will keep me wrong from right

# But I don't like when
my better side takes hold of me

# I didn't want you to know

# Man, I guess I was scared

# Feet, don't fail me now

# I got to stand my ground

# So I hush, don't make a sound

# Feet, don't fail me now

# I got to stand my ground

# And though I'm down for trying
I am better in denial. #

Hiya.

Hey, Tess. What's up?

Did you want to, erm...?

I'm in the middle of something.

I got your message.

Guess that means it's official now?

You OK? You seem a bit off.

Tess, you're a great girl,

and we had a good time together,

but I've got to put my energy
into my work right now.

Right.

Yeah, OK.

What the hell!
< Oh, my God.

Tess, what are you doing?!

Argh.

You're crazy.

Get her off him!

Sam, that's not on.
Get in my office.

I'll handle this.

In my office now!

Tess, go with Maya.

Go with Maya.

It's OK. It's OK.

What?

Get back to work.

SOFTLY: OK.

Can you help me understand
what's going on here, Tess?

You don't have to tackle
all these issues alone.

Issues? Maybe...
Maybe I don't have any issues.

Maybe this is just my fucked-up
personality, this is who I am,

ladies and gents,

some drunk ratbag still
living life like I'm 15.

OK.

Will you make an appointment
to see your GP

to discuss your alcohol intake
and any underlying conditions?

I'd never even smoked a cigarette
before I started working here.

Most I'd had to drink was
half a shandy.

Well, you were young
when you started work.

Look, we all change as life
throws obstacles at us.

We... We experiment, we grow,
we move on. It's normal.

If you weren't part of it,
no-one wanted shit to do with you.

You had to drink like the boys,

smoke like the boys,

snort coke with the boys,

blow the boys.

And they wonder
why I am fucked up!

Tess, that isn't normal.
No-one gives a shit!

I give a shit.

What do you want from me?

I want to help you.

Why? Because I know what it's
like when no-one's protecting you.

I lost my virginity in this office.

With who?

I can't remember.

Ah! I thought I'd find you here.

Is this about Pyjama Friday?

No. I had a talk with Tess.

Oh.

Why was my predecessor fired?

Hugh wasn't fired. He left.

Why's he still on payroll?

He's still employed by
the company. He's still on a salary.

He does consulting for us.

Consulting on what?

HR?

If he's a current employee,
he should be on file.

He doesn't seem to have
a record I can locate.

DOORBELL RINGS

Hi. Hugh?

Um, do you have five minutes
for a quick chat?

We're agnostic, but thanks.
No, no, no. I'm from Fly Dynamic.

I'm your replacement. Would you mind
if I asked you a few questions?

Can't talk. I'll be quick,
I promise. I can't talk.

Why don't you work there any more?
Take your hand off my door.

What happened between you and Tess?

Tess?

Did you assault her?

Is that why you were fired?

Why are you asking me about this?
I've been fired. Isn't that enough?

I need to know.

Forget about Tess. Forget about me.

I'm just the tip of the iceberg.

Ask about Amy.

How was your day, Mum?

Shit. Thanks for asking. Yours?

Shall we play a board game?
Bake a cake?

Movie night? Order pizza?

Vegan for me. Cheese.

Well, then, should I choose
a movie that we can all sit

and enjoy together?

What do you two normally do
after school?

This.

MOBILE PHONE VIBRATES

Hello?

Sorry, what?

Next Tuesday at the same time
should be fine.

I'll make sure we're all there.

Thanks.

Gem, can I have a word?

Gemma! No need to be aggressive.

You didn't show up
for counselling yesterday.

I forgot. You forgot?

Yeah. The same way you forgot
who my biological father is.

CARD CLATTERS

Order your own pizza.

DOOR SLAMS

What are you doing here?

Carys and me aren't getting on
too well.

What are you doing here? The kids
and me aren't getting on too well.

I came to put Maya's report
on your desk.

Wait till you get to
the section after Pyjama Friday.

HE LAUGHS

You know all these suggestions,
Tess, lawyers,

bankers and analysts crawling up
my arse - feels like a witch hunt.

A witch hunt in pyjamas.

You know she's looking
for Hugh's file.

I'm not stupid.

I shredded it when he left.

I can't stop thinking about Amy.

MUFFLED VOICES

Ten years.

It feels like yesterday.

Don't talk about that.

Why?

What if we're the witches?

Don't.

I said don't!

Agh!

I'm a fucking liar

"Now I am become Death,
the destroyer of worlds."

Fuck's that?

Suicide note?

I'm going home.
I've been here all day.

Come on, Sam. We're not finished.
Let's go over last night again.

What time did you say you left
the office? I can't remember.

Sam, someone is dead.

Can we just stop and do this
another time? I need to go home.

Tell us about Amy, Sam.
