OK, so Sugar's worked out that I'm a rug-muncher.
Oh, my God. You fancy me?
Gotta... go.
At least I can rely on my loving family.
Dad's an emotional wreck, my brother's a freak,
and Stella's playing happy families with the decorator.
Slut.
I've been holed up in my room for a week now.
Well, maybe you like me then.
Kim?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. You fancy me.
Gotta... go.
Kim.
Oh, Kim.
I know you don't feel well but it'd be nice if you could come downstairs for a bit.
Spend some time together as a family.
It was time to come out and face the music.
What are you doing?
I've started my period.
- Where are you going? - Out.
I think you should spend a bit more...
I think you should take notice of the fact that your son has started menstruating.
There's only so long you can escape from reality.
But still, coming out to Sugar wasn't something that could be approached easily.
You could hardly describe Sugar as being particularly sensitive...
Oh! Jammed, the bastards!
Oi, gaylords. Did you do this?
... open-minded or PC.
- No kicking the machines. - Shut up, you fat dwarf.
Your fucking machine's broken, innit?
Broken, is it? Is that why you haven't been calling?
Look, Kiz, I know you fancy me,
so you might as well just stop acting like a twat about it.
I had a dream about...
curvy pink aliens.
And when I woke up...
I think you may be a little confused about menstruation.
Er... See, we're not like Kim or your mum.
We're boys. We're different.
Big, reliable and strong.
We should start hanging out together, you and me.
And do things. Man together stuff. Yeah?
Stop! Stop! My back! My back!
Ooh! Ow!
So this was it. I was out.
She still hasn't said what she thought about it.
But at least we were still speaking.
Did you just drop one? Cos that really stinks.
What was unnerving was how normal she was about it all.
I saw them together, out driving.
Her in the passenger seat, feet up on the dashboard. Huh!
He used to go mental when I did that.
She must be all of what, 14? All teeth, no tits.
Going on about Darren as though nothing had changed between us.
Hello. Are you listening?
- Sorry. - It's perverted.
- What is? - Daz with a 14-year-old.
Just cos you're a pussy lover, don't make you deaf as well,does it?
Ooh, there. There. Yeah. Just...
Harder. Ow!
- Dale! - You said go harder!
Oh! OK, forget it.
- So. - So.
What do you want to do?
We could try talking.
PlayStation.
Road Wreck or Cop Chase? We've got hours till PJ's.
- PJ's? - Yeah.
Paul Jones. Lizard Lounge. Fresh mix for the weekend.
We're going clubbing. It's Friday.
Great.
See, when you're a man, life can be tough.
Specially these days, when the roles are less defined.
Less obvious.
Have to be a provider. A defender.
But at the same time, care for your family.
You have to be tough, but also be soft.
Now, with all these conflicting demands,
it's easy to start bottling things up.
To let the stress build.
And sometimes you need an outlet for all the pent-up, aggressive,
lonely, depressed bitterness.
- My family are freaks. - You said it.
Matt started his period this morning.
I blame Stella. She's always made public events of her bodily functions.
Nathan still reckons she's coming back.
She will. He'll soon get bored of her and start chasing after some younger ass.
It's like Darren. 16 and he thinks you're past it.
He just can't stomach the fact that you've got more GSCEs than he has.
Metalwork and a U in Computer Science.
Urrr!
He's a wanker. I'm through with him.
And Donkey. He was only worth it to cheat on with Daz.
Ray's a little tart and all.
Of course there is always Tom.
Trigger-happy Tom with the fastest gun in the west.
Sod off.
So, what do you do, then?
- What? - Lesbians.
Come on. You must have a few tricks.
How else are you gonna make up for the fact that there's no cock?
- Oh, my God! - Well?
What?
You don't know, do you? You haven't even done it before!
How do you know you are one if you've never even given it a whirl?
-Can we talk about something else? -Why?
Cos.
- Are you embarrassed? - No.
Yeah.
Men. I'm through with them.
More trouble than what they're worth.
I reckon it's time I found other ways to enjoy myself.
I love that twirly thing.
Look at my cock!
- What do you think? - Nice.
Nice?
Amazing.
Gorgeous.
- Come on. Jeans off. - I am so not wearing that.
I'd look like a tart.
What are you saying?
- Dyke. - Slapper.
- Rug-muncher. - Slut.
I'm going to get those jeans off!
- I'm not wearing it! - Yes, you are.
If it starts again, just put your head right back.
God, I really made a mess there, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
I've been trying so hard since Stella left to keep things going
and hold it all together.
I guess I lost it. You shouldn't have had to...
I never meant...
Do you want the peas over your eye?
I feel like dancing. Does anyone wanna dance?
Isn't that what you're meant to do at nightclubs?
Dale, come on.
Whoo! Shit.
- Good shit, guys. - Just chill, all right?
- Chill. - You're embarrassing yourself.
-The only person I'm embarrassing is you. -Come on.
Please! I'm old enough to be your mother.Stop treating me like a child.
I've got something for you.
- I've never done one before. - We'll half it.
Whoo!
Some people say their first time on E
made them love everybody, anybody who was around.
Mine wasn't like that. I mean, I liked them.I was glad they were there.
But only as witnesses to the one love I was feeling now.
Are you two lesbians?
Yeah. Yeah, we are.
Two vodka mixers.
Normally I don't like going to the bar.
Normally I panic, expect to get caught out,have underage written all over me.
But tonight was different. I was living the dream.
I was buying my girlfriend a drink and nothing could stop me.
No. Onions.
- No onions? - No. Onions!
She wants onions.
I suppose in many respects, now was the kind of time that you want your mum around.
I'm not hungry. Thanks.
Bastard.
He beat me, Kim.
- He beat me. - Dale hit you?
No! He beat me. He won.
Too young. Different. Immature.
He was only good for fucking. You know, I got bored.
I actually got bored.
Not to mention sore.
Couldn't keep up.
It's easy being the dynamic one
when the only person people have to compare you with is Nathan.
Maybe you shouldn't have cheated on him then.
18 years we've been together.
Can you imagine how hard that is?
How it sucks the lifeblood out of you?
- Course you don't. - I was there for 15 of them.
When you've been with someone for that long, it changes things.
What used to be special becomes normal
and what you used to respect gets annoying.
Yeah, well, people don't always turn out quite how you'd expect.
Do you hate me?
It would make things a hell of a lot easier.
I thought I'd found the woman of my dreams tonight.
You and her are quite alike.
There are some moments in life you know you'll never forget.
I had a feeling this was one of them.
I guess we'd all been deluding ourselves.
