[bunniefuu]

Argh! Argh!

HE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY How

could that be a ghost?

The building isn't

even that old.

Get it together,

Stanley. Get it together.

Remember, you are Stan the man

with the master plan.

Come on.

Let's get some food, innit?

Said you were hungry.

All right, let me whip

us something, man.

You know, I'm a young

Ainsley Harriott, innit.

All right, check if they've

got any eggs in there.

And salmon as well.

Chardonnay, caviar.

What we got?

Fishcakes. Sorry, bruv.

Fishcake? Mm-hm. Hundred bag

education for a fishcake, bro?

Don't ask me. I'm not paying.

I'm cutting, bro.

They are onto me, man.

Ain't taking it to

court either, no way.

You're on bail? Yeah.

It's a bit tecky.

Yeah, it's long.

I've just got to

..lay low elsewhere, you get me?

Obviously, man ain't

working at the moment, so

..I ain't going to be able to

run Caleb that bread no more.

Leave Caleb to me, man.

Now's not the time to be

warring with Caleb, you know.

He'll be fine.

Bruv, if man's not

there supporting him,

do you want him

chilling on the block?

You can't let that happen.

DOOR OPENS H—hello?

OK, that is our cue. Let's go.

Hello? Who's that?

MUSIC: Repeat, by Sways

It's quite a grainy image, so

it's pretty hard to see who

those two reprobates even are,

but I can ask around for you.

We've had the video sent

off for further analysis.

Great. Well, please keep me

posted with your investigation

and do let me know if

I can be of any help.

Hmm.

SNORING

Yo.

It won't be long. Promise.

Just a few days.

HE GROANS

Oh, God. All right.

Yes!

Stay put, man. Do

not leave this room.

What's she got? Nothing yet,

which is why we really need to get

that b*tch gone before she comes out

with the receipts. OK, don't worry.

OK? I got you.

You've got me in a whole

lot of trouble. Listen.

This next plan,

it needs to work.

OK. Anarchism has much to offer

the black liberation movement,

IF we are bold enough to

seize it. Who said that?

You know full well it was

Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin, girl.

Oh, OK.

And

..look how many people are coming

to the ACS meeting at lunchtime.

I didn't I didn't know

there was an ACS today.

Yeah. Yeah, I texted you.

There, you see. Four-five-two,

that's you, right?

Hm-mm, that is not me.

Oh.

It must be the British

numbers, you know.

Same numeral system as the US.

Anyways, you need to be there. OK?

Of course. Yeah? We're going to

rally the troops. Mm-mm. Right?

And we're going to

get that b*tch

TOGETHER: gone.

I know, I know. Right, so see

you at lunch? At lunch. Oh, wait.

And bring ideas, OK? Of course.

I'll get more people. Mm.

It's a movement!

It's a movement.

It's a movement It's a what?

It's a movement It's a what?

It's a, it's a,

it's a movement. ♪

I'll see you. In

a bit, in a bit.

Why don't you just text Dilton

hi? I can't just say hi.

I bailed on him.

No explanation, nothing.

What's going on?

Omar is struggling

to text Dilton.

How he stepped further away

from d*ck is beyond me.

Look, it's not that

simple, right? Not after

Look, you've got to keep this

proper hush-hush, all right?

But the Raisinettes, they have

this, like, wall of secrets

and Dilton is up there.

Oh, sorry. At the

same time? Yeah.

G'wan, Dilton! Oh, my days.

HE SIGHS Right, you

know what you do?

Message him, yeah? Be like,

"What you saying? When we

going to link up and paint

"paint with our dicks?"

Toby, why you got

to be so crass?

Crass? Yes.

How? This is my cue.

I'm crass?

Later.

PHONE VIBRATES

I just don't think

it's that deep.

Look, I don't care how

many people he's been with,

but how do I compete with

all of his experience?

Pass me your phone.

You've got to be like,

"Hey, Dilton, I am truly humbled

"by your experience

"and I was thinking maybe

you could teach me"

No, he doesn't need

to know I'm a loser.

Virgins aren't losers, Omar.

GIGGLING

PHONE VIBRATES

Anyways, why in the bloodclart

is Rupert messaging you?

He wanted me to bring

him his homework.

Come again?

Obviously, I said no.

He bullied you!

Promise me you won't

go to his yard.

I just want to check if he's OK.

Argh! Leah, you're hurting me!

Promise me, then. OK,

OK. Fine, fine, fine.

I promise.

Why don't I believe you?

What are you even

doing here anyway?

You're not even in this class.

Dear Black Jesus, hook a

brother up with a tasty hookup.

I swear, I'm churching

every Sunday.

Toby!

My G! Obviously,

not every Sunday.

My man.

Devonye.

Nice to meet you. Lovely

to meet you, Devonye.

Uh, how may I help?

Are you free now?

For you? Always.

That's what I like to

hear. OK, let's go.

So, I hear you're the

man with all the ideas.

Leah! You're here. Hey.

What's going on?

OK, so we have the dopest

idea for the next event.

Sick, so do I.

Basically, this is my

Let me get it up.

My f*ck Carol speech.

It's not really needed cos

we have the wheels in motion.

It's called

Sleepover For Change.

OK. Is it, um

It was Toby's idea.

Toby, you've joined ACS.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I wonder why.

Tell her your idea.

Yeah, yeah. OK. OK.

It's a sleepover. Hm-mm.

Everyone will rock up

in their jimmy-jammies.

We'll ask for a small donation,

then we'll put on a film.

Something like, uh, 12 Years A

sl*ve or something like that.

Basically, a film that makes

white people feel bad for being

themselves. Yeah. So,

a bunch of upper years

in a dark room,

pillows, blankets.

I don't know, it sounds like

a orgy to me. Yeah, but

..it's for charity, innit?

SHE GASPS We should do

it in the school yurt.

Yeah. Guys, it is

lit, but one question.

What has this got to do

with our scholarships?

To entertain, to engage.

Artists are the

gatekeepers of truth.

We are civilization's anchor.

We are the compass for

humanity's conscience. Mm.

Again, who? Oh, thank you.

It was Paul Robeson,

you funny girl.

You knew that, didn't

you? Yeah, 'course.

OK. Let's get to work.

OK, I completely

underestimated her.

I love her.

So, Mr Adebayo If this

is about the medical room,

I have no idea about it. I

actually even saw it on

I-I know, Mistress.

I know this stuff. I do.

I-I-I think it's just

the pressure and I panic.

I don't think it's beneficial for

you or the school to prolong this

..very painful experience,

wouldn't you agree?

Yes, Mistress.

Tried to contact your parents.

I don't seem to have their

current number on file.

It's missing a

dialling code. Ah.

Plus

..two

..three

..four.

I wasn't aware your

family were living abroad.

My dad's business is

in Lagos, and here

..but mostly there. Global.

It does beg the question why you're

on a fully funded scholarship

when he seems to

be doing so well.

Though I suppose it would

be unfair of me not to take

these panic attacks

of yours into account.

If I can see a steady

improvement in your work,

I see no reason why you have

to leave immediately. Really?!

A lot to improve on.

History, maths

I'll improve on all

of them, I promise.

You've also signed up

for the drama society.

Eeee Yeah, yeah.

Er, but work is more

important, so I can No.

I think drama would

be beneficial for you.

I trust you'll be

performing at the showcase.

Showcase?

I mean, yeah, the showcase!

Great. Of course.

And do not throw away

this second chance.

Is that clear? Yes, Mistress.

Well

Thank you.

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

Hello. Can I speak

with Mr Adebayo?

INTERCOM: Well, are you going to

come in or are you just going to

stand there with your mouth open

like you're waiting for a d*ck to

Wait, wait, I'm sorry.

Look, come in

..please. The door's open.

MUSIC: Local X Global,

by Matthew James

I swear this job

said formal wear.

Yeah, what, this ain't formal?

If you say so.

Maybe Xiang's got

something you can wear.

There it is. Controller's in

the drawer. Biscuits are there.

They're Xiang's. Do whatever

with them, I don't mind.

Xiang's, but it don't matter?

You know he's going to hate me

even more if I take his stuff.

Please, don't move,

right, or I'm f*cked.

Love, bro. Yeah?

Love. Thank you.

I'll be back soon.

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

HE SIGHS

Carol says that

pottery is therapeutic.

You should try it.

It's very relaxing.

Just quickly, er

..get a little wiggle

on it. There you go.

Some length to it.

Give it a go.

Is is therapy

..therapeutic stuff

what you need?

How are you?

So, has Dilton put

it up your arse yet?

I haven't seen you for weeks and

that's the first thing you ask me?

Take that as a no then.

What's the issue?

It's complicated.

Sounds like you're

making it complicated.

Then why am I here?

If it's relationship

advice, I don't need it.

Oh, my God, look, I

just needed homework.

OK? But Florence didn't want to

bring it and I haven't really

been speaking to Spencer

or Bishop, so, yeah.

Your stuff's still in our dorm.

I'm guessing you're coming back.

Look, I've not been

feeling my best.

So, Carol thought it'd be

good if I had a little break.

Appearance is everything.

Where's your bathroom?

You'll find it.

Just wank him off!

It's not that hard.

KNOCKING AT DOOR

I've come to apologise.

I'm not usually

that kind of kid.

We came for a laugh

and I got carried away.

What I said was

out of order and

..I'm sorry. Really.

Noted. Anything else?

I was also wondering if

..maybe I could

..rejoin Drama Society?

I'm not in the habit of teaching

obnoxious little pricks.

Please. I

..I'm begging you.

I was a prick.

I know. And I'm

so, so, so sorry.

But I have been

f*cking up like crazy

and I've been given

another chance.

And I need this.

Please.

So, you need me?

This will be fun.

Do you have a nail

brush or something?

I can't get this

out of my nails.

What did you do?

How'd you get into my phone?

Easy. It's your birthday.

The fact I remembered, shows how

strong our friendship is, right?

What did you text him?

Just trust me, it'll work.

I mean it when I say it, don't

ever f*cking contact me again.

Oooh!

HE SIGHS

Yes! Woo!

Can I help you?

Oh, hi. I'm I'm Jaheim

Marsham, I'm working the

Oh! Jaheim Marsham.

Yes. Hello, hello.

Thank you very much for

following the uniform brief.

Very dapper, very

dapper. Thank you.

Oh? Uh, oh, sorry, um

I'm Alan,

both host and protagonist of

this dreadfully garish birthday.

Well, happy birthday.

Oh, it's not a big birthday.

It's a birthday, nonetheless.

Um, now, some people call

me a perfectionist, I'm not.

You'll be working the cloakroom.

Have you worked a cloakroom before?

No. No?! I can learn

fast. I promise, I'm

Coats.

There are two tokens.

One token stays on the hanger.

The corresponding token

goes to the owner.

Got you.

Shall we practise?

OK. Yeah, sure.

May I? Yeah. Um sorry.

Here you go.

I do hope they have a cloakroom.

Good evening. Hello. Hi.

Here, let me take that.

Thank you.

Um, pop this on here.

Number eight, was it? I think

it was number eight. Yes.

There you go. There you are.

I don't suppose we have

time to do it again.

You can just run it through

a few times yourself.

Cool. Yeah.

Um, sorry to be like this,

but pay, when do we get paid?

End of the evening. But I really

need you to focus on the coats!

Jaheim?

Bea! Oh, my Um,

sorry, I just, um

Sorry, I didn't expect

to see you here.

Yeah. Quite quite the outfit.

Uh, yeah. I do try

sometimes, don't I?

Um, you work here?

Uh, yeah.

Now I feel underdressed.

My bad. Um

..you do this often

or is it just a?

Oh, no, it's, like,

a fairly new thing.

Yeah. Sorry, I didn't

know. I wouldn't have

No, no, it's not something

that I shout from the rooftops.

"It girl has a part-time job."

Yeah. Understandable. Yeah.

First guest! Places,

places, big smiles.

Just less teeth.

Much less teeth.

Well, some teeth. Come on.

Just smile like a normal person!

You know, relax!

We're working, but it's a party.

Alan!

SHOUTS: Coming!

SINGSONG: Coming!

There we are.

BEA LAUGHS

Oooh! Oh, dear. Right, I'm

going to leave you to it. Yeah.

You do you.

APPLAUSE That

was great. Great.

When I said, "Pick a

monologue," I meant from a play,

not Cruel Intentions.

OK. Who's next?

Over here! Here, Miss!

Let's welcome Femi to the stage.

I don't have a speech. Why not?

Uh, I-I was, um

Oh, of course.

Because you were acting like a

c*ck ring last time you were here.

From one of my first plays.

I was reading a lot of

in-your-face theatre at the time.

Absolutely panned by the

critics, but I still love it.

Page one.

When you're ready.

I see him looking at me,

desperate to take me,

desperate to put

himself inside of me.

It's actually the character's

first sexual experience,

so she should

sound more excited,

Hmm.

Desperate, desperate,

desperate to be all over me.

Grab my t*ts and

LAUGHTER ..shower

his liquid love

all over me.

She's actually turning

herself on as she speaks.

HE MOANS

LAUGHTER

I imagine his seed is silky

HE MOANS

..soft, warm to the touch.

Maybe add some

visuals to the words.

Hmm.

HE GROANS

Soft, warm to the touch.

OK.

That was quite poor.

I'd like you to work on that.

OK, who's next?

Would you like to come up here?

Thank you. Thanks, Miss.

Did you enjoy that? Mm

..not really. Quite humiliating.

But I guess that was the point.

It's not nice being embarrassed

in front of everyone, is it? No.

I was thinking

..if I could do something different

for the showcase? Oh, don't worry.

I'm not going to

force you to do that.

I want to. Like, I need to.

No offence, Femi, genuinely,

but you are an awful actor.

I'm willing to put in the work.

Please, Miss

..Carol wants it.

Do you even know what the

showcase is for? Yeah.

It's so Headmistress can show

the board how amazing she is.

All the seats will be filled with

students, parents, board members.

It's a big deal.

And if it goes wrong,

she will have your ba*ls.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

yeah. I'm up for it.

Well if you look

bad, I look bad,

so let's find you

something more appropriate.

Come back tomorrow and

we'll find one and practise.

Argh, tomorrow is

the sleepover

..which I won't be

going to, obviously.

See you later, Miss.

PHONE VIBRATES

WHISPERS: Yo.

Bro, what's going on?

Bro, I need to use the toilet,

but man can't leave the room, bro.

You know I can't afford

to get kicked out. Please.

Jaheim! Yo. Sorry, bro,

I need to go, actually.

Off the phone, Marsham!

Sorry

I hate you, you dickhead.

Here, I stole you

this from the kitchen.

Oh, yeah? What is it?

Cannoli. Oh, very cheesy.

HE WRETCHES Oh,

that is terrible!

Oh, my God. That is terrible.

Right, so you

don't like cannoli.

I'll add that to my list of

things that I know about you. Hmm.

Am I that bad? Yeah,

no, you are that bad.

Well, I think you're digging

for something that ain't there.

Right? Hmm. Yeah, what

you see is what you get.

I actually think you've

got more to you than that,

but it's your call if you

want to share it, so

Well, I do have one

question, though. Mm-hm.

How are you going

to explain that?

What? Look.

Oh, shi

Er Um

..get the water, get the water.

Here, here, here.

OK, here's some napkins.

Oh, no, stop, stop!

You're making it worse,

you're making it worse. How?!

I'm cleaning it up. No, stop.

Stop it.

You ain't going to

do nothing better.

Aargh! Eurgh! What's going on?

I'm just trying to make it

better! HE CLEARS HIS THROA

The guy showed me

how to take coats

and wasn't even impressed

by the way I did it.

At least you didn't get shown

how to properly tie up a bin bag.

Wait, what? I was really sh*t.

How do you not know how

to tie up a bin bag?

I had a cleaner, growing up.

We actually had

two Of course!

..just in case one of

them got sick. Mm-hm.

SHE GROANS Well, um, I'm sorry

for getting you fired.

No, no. It's all right.

It was never going to, like,

make up the school fees.

It was just a bit

of pocket money.

Keeping up appearances.

Expensive being popular.

You going to be all right?

Oh, no, I'm screwed.

Where are my manners?

Would you like a backie?

Go on.

You're cool, you're

cool. I got you.

I told you. Oh, my God.

You need to stop doubting me.

What did I tell you?

Uh-huh. Here we go.

To St Gilbert's we go!

How much do I owe you?

On the house. Mm.

You did get me fired, so I guess

that's the least that you can do.

Well, if you ever need

another one, let me know.

Oh, no, I think this should be

the last one, for obvious reasons,

but thanks.

See ya.

Oh, yeah.

I just I just

felt really bad.

Where were you?

Rupert asked me to

drop some homework off

and I stayed more than needed,

but not for long. It's just

..I think he needs a friend.

Rupert is not your concern.

It's just

..I know about

the pottery thing.

Well, it's just dicks, Mistress.

I'm not saying I

know the whole thing,

but being in that house alone,

I don't think it's good for him.

You were not granted permission

to leave school grounds.

I won't even mention

going to MY house.

You will attend

detention this evening,

as well as catch up on

the work you missed.

Am I clear?

Am I clear?

Yes, Mistress.

This is hot.

Be excited! All right,

Lead the way, innit.

Hey. Oh, hey, um

No, no, no. It's fine.

There's, um, no space in here.

Are you sure?

No, I'm pretty sure there's

space at the back, right?

Not that I can see, you know.

No, no, are you sure there's

no space at the back, Toby?

Nope. OK.

What? What, are you lot

not chopping no more?

I'm joking, I know

you're not chopping.

I'm just enjoying this

awkwardness, you know.

Yeah, you enjoy it.

Anyway, I'll go

get some popcorn.

Mm-hm.

Do you want some?

Nope. Don't say yes.

What an event,

I got a space over there

You always look so

I know a lot has been going on.

The divorce, your

And it was my suggestion that you

stayed at home till you felt better.

But maybe being with

And you being headmistress?

I know it's hard for

Exciting things are happening,

So many skimpy jim-jams.

Oh, um, I downed a

half a bottle of vodka

and now I'm steaming.

HE RETCHES

Lightweight! Loser!

Yeah, I've got to sleep it off.

Make sure you send me

all the frisky pics.

Of course, baby! We'll

send all of them, darling.

Got some paracetamol in my bag.

I'm fine. Thank you.

Do you want to take

it from the top?

Yeah.

Er

Aye, that I had not

done a thousand more.

Even now I curse the day,

and yet I think few come

within the compass of my curse.

What? Is it sh*t? Am I sh*t?

No, nothing.

I'm smiling.

It's really good. Keep going.

Wherein I did not

some notorious ill

as k*ll a man or else

..devise the his Hmm.

Er, I feel like I want to move

towards the audience here.

Maybe talk to them directly?

See what it feels like.

Wherein I did not some

notorious ill as k*ll a man

or else devise his death.

Toby, I need you.

Spring Ball tickets

aren't selling like this.

Yeah, well, not everyone's

Toby. I got that sauce.

Yeah. And I need the sauce.

You need to join

the social committee

Pass. Please.

It needs to be bigger and

better than last year.

Don't know why

you're asking him.

He might know how

to get a big act.

We've already got one.

Felix, what's the

name of the band?

Clean Bandit.

Nobody knows who they are.

Yeah, exactly.

And, er, in my opinion,

nobody wants some boring-arse

skinny-jean-arse wearing band.

Toby is right.

I want to shake a*s.

Well, Felix knows the Clean

Bandits personally and can get them

at an affordable price.

Thank you, by the way.

You're so sweet.

We could be. Mm.

What's the budget?

More than enough. More

than enough for who?

One of my London connects.

Who's your connect? Adele?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Not Adele.

I can't shake a*s to

Adele, huh? Obviously.

Why are we entertaining this?

Fam, what about Unknown T?

He's from London, right?

I love him. He wishes.

Unknown T? Not a problem.

What? Yeah, me and

Unknown T go way back.

His mum used to invite

me around for dinner.

I knew you had the sauce.

Welcome to the committee.

Fair enough, fam.

If you think I'm

impressed, I'm not.

Well, not everything's

about you, Abby.

Well, I know you're

bullshitting.

And I for one can't wait to

see your spectacular downfall.

Oooh.

Wow.

What a turnout.

Tonight we've taken a

huge step together towards

a progressive future.

I'm proud of us all.

I think we've

collected, like, £500.

These whites be guilting.

OK, sorry, I'm not

really one for speeches,

so I wrote a poem instead.

WHISPERED: Jesus Christ.

Something I was going to

save for the showcase,

but thought I'd give you

a little sneak preview.

Mother, May I.

Mother, may I

break these chains that bind,

Erase the hate,

The walls that blind?

Mother, may I dream

Without the fear, embrace

the love and hold it near?

Mother, speak the

truths long concealed.

Heal the wounds, let

scars be revealed.

WHISPERED: Is it just me,

or do you find this, like,

super, super cringe. Sssh!

Mother, may I

Be who I want to be

See who I want to

see WHISPERED: What?

..give what I want to

Mm. Mm-mm give.

Mother, may I cry

SHE GIGGLES

..for a cry?

Mother, may I?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

What did you think? That

was amazing. I filmed it.

We can put it on the Just

Giving page. Excellent.

I have it all planned.

Mm-hm. Yeah. Cool.

WHISPERS: Why did you

end things with him

since you're clearly

still obsessed?

I'm not obsessed.

Babe I'm not!

It was just so hard

to get a read on him.

He's so bloody hard to talk to.

LAUGHTER Yeah, it seems so.

So what was all that

about with Xiang?

Nothing. You promised

you'd tell me.

All right. Well, I may or may

not have had someone over that

I shouldn't have.

SHE GASPS

I know. He told me.

I convinced him not to

say anything to Stanley.

It'd be pointless, as he'd be

gone by the time he got back.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

PHONE BEEPS

WHISPERS: Phones on

silent. These people!

Sorry.

Give me give me a second.

PHONE LINE RINGS

What's up?

Your little brother

hasn't come home.

Why didn't you tell me?

And worry you for what?

Yeah, he's, um he's probably

at a friend's house. Exactly!

Look, don't worry about us.

Go to your bed.

PHONE LINE RINGS This is

Caleb. Leave a message.

Caleb if I have to come

to London to find you, bro,

I swear down

Just just go home

and call me back. Yeah?
