The Flatmates Episode 31-35

Episode 31: The photocopier

John:      Hey, Helen, look what I've found on the photocopier - the answers for next
              week's test!
Helen:   The answers? You'd better hand them in to the office.
John:     You're kidding, aren't you? I think you should wise up.
Helen:   What do you mean?
John:     We've both been struggling with the work this term; here's our chance to pass
              with flying colours. If I were you, I 'd make the most of it.
Helen:   What? Cheat? We can't do that!
John:     Why not? Do you want to fail? Your parents won't like it if you do.
Helen:   No, I don't want to fail. But, if we get caught.
John:     We won't get caught. Come on, what do you say?
Helen:   Well, I'm not sure..

Episode 32: Baby talk

Dr.Laver:     Okay, well in this room we monitor the babies overnight. Now, the
                    important thing is to talk to them.
Alice:          Talk to them? What do I say?
Dr.Laver:    Well, watch me. Hello, you are a handsome boy aren't you? You're gorgeous.
                    Now you try. Speak to the baby next to you.
Alice:          Oh, okay. Hello little one! Who's a handsome boy then?
Dr.Laver:     Erm, that's a girl.
Alice:          Oh! Who's a pretty little girl? What a lovely smile! Aren't you lovely?
                    Oh, oh, oh!
Dr.Laver:    Excellent, excellent - you're a natural. You'll make a very good nurse
                   here and a lovely mother one day I'm sure.

Episode 33: The dripping tap

Michal:     Hey Tim, what are you doing?
Tim:          I'm fixing this tap. I can't put up with that drip-drip noise anymore.
Michal:     Have you turned off the water?
Tim:          I told you. That's what I'm working on.
Michal:     I mean the main water supply? Have you cut it off?
Tim:         No, I haven't. Stop worrying and let me get on with this.
Michal:    I don't think you should carry on doing that!
Tim:         It's okay, just one more turn of the spanner.
Michal:    I really think you should stop.
Tim:        Oh, go away Michal. You're putting me off. One more turn and then ...
                aaaaaargh! Oh no! Michal! Help! Stop the water! Aaaaaargh!

Episode 34: Helen to the rescue

Michal:      I told you so!
Tim:          Hurry up, I'm getting soaked!
Helen:       What's going on here? What a mess! Dad'll kill me.
Michal:     It's the water. Tim didn't turn off it before trying to fix the tap.
Helen:       Honestly Tim! You're as thick as two short planks sometimes. Michal, turn
                  the water off. Tim, give me the spanner. I'll soon have this sorted.
Tim:          What shall I do?
Helen:       Get the mop, of course! I want this floor as dry as a bone now! Dad's coming
                  round later to check the flat.
Tim:          Is he?
Tim and Michal:  Oh no!
Helen:       No, I'm just winding you up!
