All language subtitles for Outnumbered s04e02 The Girls Day Out.eng

No, it isn't.
But it really is! I'm telling you.

And I am telling you that Top Gear
is not a children's programme.

Of course it is,
they blow up caravans!

That's a kids thing.
It's not a children's show.

They have children's presenters.
They swear and no-one swears on children's shows.

They do on Wife Swap.

Wife Swap isn't a children's
programme either. Oh, come on!

No, Ben, it's not.

I mean, what do you
actually recommend I watch?

What about Horrible Histories?

That's not horrible at all.

Embarrassing Bodies is horrible.

Yeah, but... That had this bloke
with, like, a weird shrivelly horn

coming out the back of his head.

They had to amputate it.

It's disgusting.
I'd like a horn on my head.

Not a unicorn horn,
but like devil horns

or ram horns where they curl round.

Or big twizzley ones.

When did you watch
Embarrassing Bodies?

The other night. It was on just
after America's Top Serial Killers.

Why were you watching
America's Top Serial Killers?

Because it's interesting.
And why isn't it for kids?

Because it's about serial killing!

You're going to turn
in to a serial killer, potentially.

So everyone who watched that show
will become a murderer?

At your age
you're easily influenced.

I'm not going to be influenced
by some guy who killed people

because of their star sign.
I find it quite stupid.

If I was going to kill
someone I'd just kill them.

Oh, good. Listen, it's...

What the hell has happened

in this toilet?

It's like a urine...tsunami.

Firstly, it'd be nice
if once in a while

one of the males
in the household could actually use

the toilet as the toilet.
Secondly...

Well, that won't be me,
I sit down nowadays.

Oh, no!

It's blocked with paper!

There is a plunger in
here specifically for...

Hang on, where's it gone?

You should go and help her. What?

Unblocking the toilet is something

your man should do
to keep the marriage fresh.

Karen, go and get dressed, please.

Yeah, very funny.

I said, get dressed.

Karen, you are doing my head in.

I've had a very difficult
week doing all the supply teaching and I am knackered.

Well, I'm knackered,

Doctor, there is no escape.

Exterminate! I've had
an extremely hard week at school.

Yesterday, I got kicked out
of afterschool club,

which is entirely unfair.

Maybe if you hadn't told your
teacher she's got a moustache.

Well, she has. I thought
maybe she hadn't noticed it.

You deliberately
got yourself thrown out

so you could get back at Mum
for working full time.

I've had a difficult week.

I got given four detentions.
That's a lot.

Well, it is in one day, yeah.

The boys have nicknamed me 'Legend'.

Yeah, look,
it's nothing to be proud of.

Karen! Will you get your
hands out of my food?

All right, all right, calm down.
There's no need to be so touchy.

I just want to...
It's not our fault you got fired.

I did not get fired.
Well, do you have your job?

Well, no. Well, then
that's getting fired, isn't it?

Dad, didn't get fired, he "resigned
on principle". Thank you, Ben.

What does that mean?

Well, resigning on principle
is where you quit,

rather than do something
that you believe is wrong.

So, if I didn't believe in my Mum

abandoning me in afterschool club,
I could resign, could I?

No, no, no, no. That's
something completely different.

Oh, Jake! I asked
you to set off the dishwasher.

And you were supposed
to wash this pan, Ben.

I washed it!

Pete, you could have supervised.

Well, it's important they learn
to do it themselves, isn't it?

2011 and still Mum gets to do
everything. So much for feminism.

Mr Spackman says feminism
was doomed from the start.

Mr Spackman? Yeah, Biology teacher.

He says it's evolution
and that women are homemakers because it's hardwired into their DNA.

Mr Spackman? Oh, yes, I remember.

The sad, bald,
middle aged, bachelor

with dried egg on his tie
and terrible BO. This is clean.

How clean does something have to be?

Clean clean! Come on, boys,
you need to know

how to do all this
stuff for later on in your life.

You might not get to marry
a woman as gullible as me.

You need to be self sufficient,
you need to be independent, you don't want to end up like your...

Mr Spackman.

Pete, could I have a quick word,
please, now? Thank you so much.

Reckon she's got PMT.

Yeah.

What is PMT?

Close the door.

You know I said I thought that
Jake was up to something? Well, there's been a development.

Yesterday, he bought a new jacket.

Hang on, I'll ring CNN.
Thursday, he didn't have any money.

Suddenly, hey presto, new jacket!
Something's going on.

This cleanliness obsession of hers
is very bad for our health

because it means I won't
get into contact with enough germs

which means my immune system
will collapse,

which means, basically,
she could give us AIDS.

Look, why don't you just ask him
about the new jacket? I tried.

Oh, right. Jokily.

I said, "So, did you steal the money
to buy the jacket?", jokily.

Right.

So, now you have a go,
but steer clear of the jokey stuff because he doesn't like that.

Jake! Dishwasher!

Oh? Yeah, it's broken,
it won't start.

You haven't hit the on button.

Right, that's it,

I'm giving you boys
a crash course in household skills.

Let's start with the ironing.

This is an iron.

Now, the first thing

you have to remember is to take
special care because it's dangerous.

This is an electrical
appliance it gets very hot.

Actually, let's start with cooking.

Dad?

Yes?

When you were fired,
did people gang up on you?

We've been through this,
I wasn't fired... Yeah, but did they gang up on you?

Yeah, well, a bit, maybe.

Has someone been ganging up on you?

Well, yes, because

Molly said that Megan
said that I was talking to Maisie

about Katrina saying bad things
about Katherine to Stacey.

Right. Which isn't true, because
I didn't say anything to Maisie.

She's just making it up to make
me look bad to Molly.

And Megan told Tanya,
because she wants to be

friends with Tanya and Molly

and then they're all
on Megan's side, which isn't right.

Do you get what I'm saying?

So you're cross with...

Megan? No! Weren't you listening?

You take one egg.
This is ridiculous.

You can't spend your whole life
eating crisps.

Well, you can, actually,
but you will die of scurvy.

And this pan,
it still isn't clean enough.

Any cleaner than that
and we are definitely getting AIDS.

What?

And then Katrina told Megan
that she was a pig

and Megan told Miss, but, then,

Katrina told everyone
it was my fault

because of what I said to Maisie.

But I didn't even say
anything to Maisie.

So, now Tanya's telling everyone not
to be my friend because

I can't keep a secret, which is
really, really, really unfair on me.

No, you're right, sweetheart.
But, you see,

girls your age...

Have you heard the word 'clique'?

No. No, well a clique
is like a little

private gang,
but the cliques keep on changing,

so the best thing
is not to let it bother you.

You've just got to ignore it,

OK?

Do boys have cliques?

No, boys don't form cliques, they're
too busy punching each other. Oh.

So these are our ingredients.

We don't need this lesson,
in cooking or cleaning

because, let's face it,
it's easy stuff.

Easy? Yeah.
Well, it can't be that easy,

neither of you have managed it.

It's not difficult at all, Mum.

You just make it seem
difficult because when

you do it you make a big
song and dance about it.

Jake, that's not... Come on, Dad,
I've heard you say that.

I've no idea what he means by that.

He's, erm... He's... Karen!

Get your shoes on, we're going out!
Yay!

What? Well, there's no point
hanging round

when there's so much
male competence at hand.

Karen and I are going to
have a girl's day out.

We'll be back about 5.30pm, ready to
eat a nice hot meal cooked in clean,

salmonella free pans

in a lovely clean house
with no urine scented floors

and a hall that doesn't
resemble war torn Baghdad.

Shouldn't take you more than
20 minutes, provided you don't make a song and dance about it.

Pete, you're in charge. Bye, boys!

Well, played.

We haven't done much mother
daughter stuff recently, have we?

So, we could go to the park
or the zoo, whatever.

Whatever you want to do,
that's what we'll do.

I'd like to go
to the shopping centre.

Shopping centre?

Why on Earth do you want to go to
the shopping centre?

To hang out.
Right, and what does that involve?

Hanging out. Bit of shopping,
bit of... Come on, Karen!

We could go to Richmond Park.

We could see if we could
have a ride on the horses.

So, when you said we could go
anywhere I wanted

that was just another
Mummy promise, was it?

This is nice. Yeah, lovely.

We could do this every
Sunday, couldn't we?

You can put the meat in,
but I'm the chef.

Of course you are.
You've got the hat.

I've always fancied being a chef.
can I swear? No.

Can I tell everyone they're useless?
No. But I can use knives?

I think I'd better supervise
everything involving knives,

hot liquids or flames.

Now, we need to do some vegetables.

No, we don't. I'm a chef that thinks
vegetables are a cliche.

Well, we need something green.
I can make a gargantuan salad.

Salad, that is an excellent idea,
no flames.

Now, next on the list
is the Hoovering.

Shotgun the Hoovering!

I can do that. I can do the
laundry, as well. Really?

Oh, OK. So, Jake you do

the decluttering in the hall,
urine removal... Bloody hell.

Hey, that is not the attitude, OK?

Failure is not an option.

We are representing the male of the
species here,

so no negativity,

no losing focus and no ringing
your Mum for help.

Ben, stop sniffing the gas.

So, what's it to be? Some art stuff?

DVDs? Some books, some toys?

Some shoes.

Shoes? But you've got shoes.

Yes, but a woman can never
have too many shoes.

That's what Tanya says.
Ah, Tanya, eh? Yeah,

she goes shoe shopping
every weekend.

Last weekend she went with
Molly and Maisie and Megan

and they all bought shoes.
Tanya's mum took them.

Well, good for her.

Hi there, just asking for one minute
of your time to beat heart disease?

Beating heart disease sounds
quite hard. Well, yes, it is...

So, it's going to take more than
a minute of my time, isn't it?

Karen. Because first I need
to become a heart doctor

and that's going to take
at least five weeks.

Hey, Mum? Do we have any panko?

Panko? Yeah, panko.

What's it for?

I'm preparing dinner.

Does it involve flames?

No, I'm making a big salad.

Have we got any yam paste?

No, I...

Japanese sweet rice wine,
preferably organic?

No. Sumac?

No. Porcini? No. Pancetta? No.

Pecorino sardo? No.

Cream frashay? Creme fraiche? Yeah.

No.

The Welsh man that does the news

always says it's the fat people
that get heart...

Can I speak to your Mum? ...disease.

You should go in to the pub and tell
the fat people that when their

hearts explode

it'll be your doctors
that put a nice fresh healthy,

like, baboon's heart
in there for them.

Baby ruby chard?

We haven't even got any
adult ruby chard.

Frangelico?

No. Udon noodles?

You're using the Nigella
cookbook, aren't you?

Yeah. How did you know that?

Don't bother, no-one knows
what any of that stuff is.

Also, you should bring a

patient with you that has
heart disease...

I don't... ...with tubes

coming out of them and looking all
pale and blue

and their eyes are white,
and then say,

"This is Betty, she'll die
if you don't donate money".

I'm not sure that would be
very good for Betty's health.

Well, then you dress
someone up like Betty.

Yes, I'm not sure I'm not sure
of the point...

And then...
Can we just speak to your mum, maybe?

How about...
You heard what Dad said,

we can't call Mum,
that's an admission of failure and failure is not an option.

"Failure is not an option, Chef!",
now get out of my kitchen.

'Ben, what's happening?
What's going on there?'

No, everything's fine, Mum.

Do the heart doctors and stuff,

do they get all the money
or do you get to keep some?

Can I just go and speak to your mum!
Maybe about...

But do you get
to keep some of the money?

I mean, that's a big question. Do you
get the money that I give to that.

We should really wait for your mum.

Sorry, pushed for time, can't stop.
No, that's fine!

Ben, everything going OK?

Yeah, Dad, everything's fine.
Good lad!

Is it the Grand Prix? Yeah,
it's the usual high speed procession.

I tell you what would bring
the excitement back to Formula 1,

two words - zebra crossings.

Yeah! And maybe a couple
of mums on the school run.

Unexpectedly
stopping at the chicane.

"Oh, sorry I won't be a minute."

"Oh, sorry,
just let me manoeuvre."

"I've a right to park on this
corner because I have children".

Hey, what you doing?

Oh, it's just some homework.

Well, not in front of the telly.

It's just an essay, it's easy.

Well, what's it about?

The Romantic poets.
And why is that easy?

There's just not much to say.

"The Romantic poets
were a bunch of Emos".

They were a major movement
in literature.

You can't just, sort of, diss them.

Well, you know, I like daffodils
and I appreciate them

but it doesn't mean I have to
go on about them the whole time.

I can think, that's a nice daffodil,
and then move on with my life.

Have you any idea how long
The Ancient Mariner is? But...

Coleridge got 320 verses out of
some idiot who shot a bird.

Why are all these poems
about shooting birds?

You can think it's rubbish,
but you have to have

a coherent argument as to why.
OK, well, my conclusion...

How can you come to a conclusion?

You've written a sentence!
You can't have a conclusion.

I'm planning ahead! Wordsworth

had a very bland life,
the most interesting thing he did

was sleep with his sister,
but rather than write about...

"A very bland life"?
"The most exciting thing he did was sleep with his sister"!

If that's your
definition of bland.

He couldn't write about
sleeping with his sister, he'd have been put in prison!

Well... He'd be in the next
cell to Oscar Wilde!

But they're so nice.

I'm sorry, darling, but there are
certain basic things you need

in a shoe and being able to walk
is one of them.

But they're leopard print,
I love leopard print.

They're not real leopard, are they?

No.

Look, we've got this lovely bag,

which is lovely. Why don't we
call it a day on the shopping

and go out in to the sunshine

and away from this music
which is doing my head in.

I guess I could forget
about the shoes.

Good girl.
I just need some lipstick.

Lipstick? You're nine!

Exactly.

Just put some effort in!

But English is pointless and it
doesn't qualify you for anything.

Education isn't just
about getting a job.

It should be!
If you want to be a plumber

then you study Advanced Plumbing.

But to be a plumber you need,
chemistry

to understand about corrosion,

physics to know all about
the dynamics of water,

maths to bump up the invoice.

It is all part of the same thing.

Yeah, and then you don't need any
of the poncey stuff like history.

History isn't poncey!

Look, the point is
by the time I've...

Wow, that mechanic's on fire!

Well, now we're talking!

I mean, that's terrible. Poor man.

Other girls
in my class wear lipstick.

Really? Yeah!

When the going home time bell rings

they sneak into the toilets
and put it on.

My God!

Well, look, you've got a beautiful,
natural face that you...

Yeah, well, you wouldn't understand.
Well, what does that mean?

You wouldn't understand because
you're one of the lucky ones.

The lucky ones? Yes, Tanya's mum
says you're lucky because

you don't care about how you look.

Is that right? She says
she wishes she could be like you.

She wears lots of lipstick.

Yeah, tons.

She has all different colours.
She even has black.

That would look good on you because
you've got such a white face.

Hey, we could do you
a whole new makeover!

That would be a good
mother daughter thing.

I don't want a makeover, I'm
perfectly happy with the way I look.

Well, you're just being silly now.

These commentators are so bland.

Bring back Murray Walker,
that's what I say.

Do you remember
Murray Walker, Jake? No, Dad.

I don't remember any
of the people that you remember.

He was fantastic.
He was the perfect commentator

because he sounds like a racing car.

"And there goes Emerson Fittipaldi"!

I heard you bought a new jacket.

Yeah, it was going
cheap in Camden Market.

I just thought...
Has Mum put you up to this?

Mum? No, no, no,

not at all, no.

No.

I just wondered how you, er...

Zach's Dad gave each band member ã30

because we're
playing at his birthday party.

Oh! Oh, right.

Excellent.

"I wandered lonely as a cloud"!

How is a cloud lonely?

You never see clouds on their own,
you see them with other clouds.

Maybe it was a maverick. That's
the trouble, they just don't think.

You can't just dismiss
the Romantic Movement.

It represented a rejection

of the certainties
of 18th century classicism

and it heralded a social movement
that challenged

the conservative notions
like the Divine Right of Kings.

Can you say that slowly so I can
write it down? Oh, for God's sake.

I don't want to buy anything new.
If you didn't want to ever

buy anything new
then we'd all still be in togas.

I don't need anything!

You do.

Since when did you get
so interested in fashion?

Think about the people
that would be out of work.

The little children of Vietnam
poking the holes in the trainers

and all the grannies
cutting the holes in balaclavas,

and she'd have no job!

What about the models?
They'd starve.

Karen! Can we just...?

Look here, see, this
is the kind of thing you need.

It's got nice birds on it.

Actually, that's in the sale.
And it's only... Please, don't speak.

It just stopped a few minutes ago.

Why didn't you call me?
I tried pressing all the buttons.

Well, don't press any more.
Let's just tackle it logically.

Why don't we turn it off and on
again? No, that only works with computers, and no-one knows why.

So, this is the first load, yeah?

Yeah, and the second.
You put both loads in?

Mmm-hmm.

Why did you do that?

Actually, how did you do that?

Well, first I used my feet

and then I used the broom as
a sort of ramrod thing.

And then
I used my feet and the broom.

Your Mum is going to go nuts.
I don't know...

Try this!

Ben, the answer to every problem
is not whack it with a hammer.

Just a bit of thought,
that's all that's required.

You'll have to get a man in.
We do not need to "get a man in".

That's what Mum does. No, that's
what Mum does when I'm not available.

Often far too readily and at
great expense. We need someone who knows what they're doing.

I know what I'm doing!

You're going to break it!
I will find a solution.

Manual. Where is the manual?

Ah!

All shall be revealed.

Here's a bigger hammer. No.

I've just spent half an hour
combing through this manual.

So, have you fixed it?

No, because this is the manual
to our last bloody washing machine!

Why have we kept..? Get a man in!

Proper men don't pay to get men in.

It is a simple engineering
problem and I will fix it.

Like when you fixed the radiators
and they ended up full of sewage?

Hot sewage?

That was a systemic design flaw.

This is a washing machine and I'm
good with washing machines.

And this one is not going to beat me!

BLENDER WHIRS

STOPS BLENDER

You stupid, bloody, bloody machine!

Stupid...!

STARTS BLENDER

Oh, Karen, can we please
stop shopping?

I've stopped shopping.
I'm browsing. I'm so...

Ooh, Tanya's got a top like that,

and Molly and Megan.
Can we please stop browsing and go back to shopping

because I really like this top?
Listen, Karen,

if you only ever remember one thing
I tell you I'd like it to be this.

Life is too short
to spend it looking for a top.

Please, please don't waste it
acquiring stuff

just because you happen to be
a woman and some other women told...

Oh, that's Tanya, isn't it? Yeah,
and Molly and Maisie and Megan.

Did you know they
were going to be here? No.

Tanya said they were going to
Westfield for her birthday treat.

Ah, her birthday treat.

You invited Tanya
to yours, didn't you?

Yeah.

Do you want to and say hello? No.

OK.

Tanya's Mum looks nice, doesn't she?

I like her jacket.

But it's not real leopard, is it?

Do you know,

I think it might be.

Hello!

Blimey!

That hall is spotless. Yeah.

Did you have a nice time, Karen?

No. Mum wouldn't try on
the hot pants. It's a long story.

Well, this all looks
very impressive.

Ben has put an enormous
amount of effort into this meal.

You let Ben cook our meal?
Are you mad?

Karen! I'm not eating that,
it's going to taste like cat sick.

Why's she in a bad mood? Don't ask.
You all right? You sound...

I'm just coming
down with something.

Have you done your homework?
Oh, yes, indeed.

Have you opened the wine? Yes, chef!

"The Romantic Poets
were a bunch of Emos,

"but they also represented

"a rejection of the certainties
of 18th century classicism..."

OK, places, everyone, now!

So, everything got done?

You managed OK? No problems?

No, no. No problems, whatsoever.

Oh, the, um...

The, er...washing machine went
on the blink,

stopped mid cycle, don't know why.

I've, um... I've got a...

man coming in.

Oh, well, that's very efficient.

Usually, I have to do that.
So, Chef, is this a Nigella recipe?

No, I found something better.

I found it in a magazine
that came with Dad's newspaper.

There was this man and he's
not a chef, he's a food scientist.

He does science with food.

His name was Heston something.

I thought we were having salad?

You are having salad.

Well, where is it, then?
I put it through the blender.

You put the salad through
the blender? Not just the salad.

All the other things.

I think it's called a puree.

Heston says if you want
to be a great chef

you must be prepared
to experiment with lots of flavours.

Ta-da!

Ooh.

Right, um...

That...

Unusual texture.

Now this puree is made of

pork, onion, cheese, garlic,
rocket, cucumber,

erm...Toblerone,

rhubarb, ice cream,
cabbage and marzipan.

And this is the vegetarian option,

without the pork.

Well, it certainly
seems like a lot of work.

Did Daddy supervise you, at all?

Nope. Did it by myself.

Besides, Dad was busy. Really?

Busy doing what?

Mum, the washing machine's covered
in, like, big dents,

like someone's been whacking it
with a hammer.

So, tuck in.
