00:00I'm going to go around the front of you in case I get sunburned.
00:04Oi, I want a word with you.
00:08Owen, what's the matter?
00:09With me?
00:11Plenty, by the sounds of things, from what you told Jenny.
00:13Oh, yeah, I've got a string of girlfriends, apparently, which is nice.
00:16I just wish somebody could have told me.
00:19Oh, and Jenny was well impressed to hear that you called her a bunny boiler.
00:22So come on, what have you got to say for yourself?
00:27If you'll just let me explain.
00:29What possible explanation could there be?
00:31Why would you tell Jenny a pack of lies about me?
00:34That's a good question.
00:37I'll go get a brew.
00:40Look, Owen, I've had a long career in business.
00:43Oh, I'm glad you're using the past tense.
00:45And I've seen how romantic complications can affect a business relationship.
00:50I wanted to go out with Jenny, not with you.
00:52Well, Jenny's had a difficult few years.
00:56I mean, she lost her husband.
00:57Another guy walked out on her.
00:59She's been in a bad place.
01:01I didn't want her breaking your heart.
01:03Oh, well, that's very touching, Stephen.
01:05What's it got to do with you?
01:07Well, romantic complications can affect business decisions.
01:11Now, if it all went wrong, you might have backed out of the deal or sold up later on,
01:15rather than live cheek by jowl with your ex.
01:19Did you used to play American football without a helmet on or something?
01:22Because I have never heard so much tosh in all my life.
01:25Well, perhaps I was overthinking it.
01:29I'm sorry.
01:30You're sorry.
01:30You're not half as sorry as you're going to be.
01:33You see, I am going to go out with Jenny.
01:35And I am going to buy underwear.
01:36And as soon as I do, you are finished there.
01:39That'd be a big mistake.
01:41Yet not half as big as trusting you.
01:44Come my first day, consider yourself fired!
