Alice: Oh, what do you do?

Michal: I'm a guide tourist.

Tim: It's your round Alice

Alice: What, again? Alright, what do you all want?

Helen: An orange juice please.

Michal: The same for me too.

Michal: OK then.

Tim: And the usual for me - a G & T, love

Alice: Em, OK.

Helen: Don't call Alice "love".

Tim: Why not, isn't she lovely? Michal, what do you think?

Episode 4 : Another round

Michal: She's beautiful.

Alice: What's wrong with you?

Helen: Nothing! You know I think Michal really likes you.

Alice: Don't be daft! He's only being polite.

Helen: Do you think so?

Alice: Yes, and why are you so interested all of a sudden?

Helen: No, no reason really. Look, I've got to get back to the flat, I've got loads of studying to do.

Alice: Oh relax! The books can wait. Tim's buying the next round. What do you want?

Episode 5: Helen at home

Helen: Hello?

Mum: Hello? Helen? It's mum here. How are you my dear? Studying hard? You know how much your degree means to your father and me.

Helen: I was studying before you phoned me! Listen, I need your advice. I'm in love! But he doesn't even notice me. He only has eyes for Alice. What can I do?

Mum: Love? Love! There's plenty of time for that later. Get your head out of the clouds and back into your books. Do you hear me?

Helen: Yes, yes mum.

Episode 6: Breakfast time

Tim: Morning, campers!

Alice: Ooh, not so loud, my head's killing me.

Michal: I'm feel awful too. I've got a pain stomach. My head hurts.....

Tim: Welcome to your first British hangover Michal! What you need now is a good fry-up.

Alice: Bleugh! Oh, morning Helen. You look as bad as I feel. Have you been crying?

Helen: No, no of course not. Just burning the midnight oil studying, studying, studying.

Tim: So, who's for eggs, beans and toast?

Alice: Urgh! You really are a pain in the neck sometimes Tim!

Episode 7: Paying the rent

Helen: Oh no, it's that time of the month again - time to pay the rent.

Tim: Comes round fast enough, doesn't it?

Alice: Yeah and I'm so broke just now. I don't know where my money goes.

Tim: You need to tighten your belt Alice. Well, I'm fairly flush this month, want me to lend you some cash?

Alice: Tim, would you?

Tim: Sure, you know me, always willing to help a damsel in distress. There's only one small catch......

Episode 8: The newcomer

Alice: Hi Michal! Look what I found in a box, near the rubbish bins outside the hospital. Can you believe someone wanted to throw her away! Isn't she adorable?

Michal: What are you going to call her? How about Bronka? That's a good Polish name.

Alice: Mm, I think she looks more like a Co-Co...Oh, hi Helen, meet our new flatmate. We just need to find a name for her.

Helen: Em, I don't think so. You know we're not allowed pets in the flat. It's against the rules.

Episode 9: The favour

Michal: I'm going to see a film tonight. Will anyone like to come with me?

Alice: Oh I'd love to Michal but I have to iron all these shirts for Tim.

Helen: Look, why don't you go with Michal and I'll iron the shirts?

Michal: Oh Helen, that's so kind of you.

Alice: But don't you want to go to the cinema too?

Helen: Yes but I need to study. I'll do the shirts, phone the landlord about keeping the cat and then I'll hit the books.

Alice: Oh thanks, we owe you. Bye!

Michal: Bye!

Helen: Oh Cat! What could I do? They seem made for each other.

Episode 10: Choosing a film

Alice: Oh, what do you fancy seeing? There's Must Love Dogs - a rom-com. Oh I love romantic comedies, don't you? Pride and Prejudice is on - I adore period dramas. You know all those fine ladies and gents from ages ago, long dresses and grand houses. What kind of films do you like - action, adventure, musicals?

Michal: Films about people living in the future, on other planets.

Alice: Oh, sci-fi - not really my thing.

Michal: Well, what about Nightmare on Elm Street? They're showing that again here.

Alice: No thanks, horror films don't do it for me.

Michal: Well, why don't you choose?

Alice: No, you invited me out, you choose.

Michal: No, I insist.

Episode 11: Phoning the landlord

Helen: Hi, dad it's Helen

Dad:

Hello my dear, how are you?

Helen: Studying hard as ever, dad. Can I ask you something as our landlord? Our lease says that we're not allowed animals in the flat. Well, is there a way that we could get around that? You see, Alice found this kitten and everyone really wants to keep her.

Dad:

You have a cat in my flat? Oh Helen, why can't you ever obey the rules?

Helen: Oh dad! Please, won't you bend them for me?

Dad: Well...

Helen: Please!

Dad: Just this once.

Tim: Kitty, did you hear what I just heard? She called the landlord "dad". What a dark horse Helen is!

Episode 12: After the film

Michal: Well that rom-com was much better than I expected. It was really romantic. Thank you.

Alice: Oh, it was my pleasure.

Michal: Would you like to do it again - go out on another date with me?

Alice: Another date? Michal, that wasn't a date we were on there.

Michal: It wasn't? Oh, I thought it was.

Alice: No, we're just good friends.

Michal: Yes, we are good friends and I'd like us to be better friends so I'm going to ask you: would you like to go out with me?

Episode 13: Tim spills the beans

Tim: So how was the cinema for you two love birds?

Alice: How many times do I have to say this - that wasn't a date!

Tim: Whoa, easy tiger! Hey this'll put a smile on your face. Guess who our landlord is?

Alice: How should I know? We give the money to Helen and she always sends off the cheque.

Tim:

Go on, guess.

Alice: Tom Cruise, the man in the moon, no idea!

Tim: It's Helen's dad!

Alice: Helen's dad! No way! Why would she keep that a secret?

Helen: I'm just putting the kettle on. Anyone fancy a cuppa?

Episode 14: Tim strikes it rich

Tim: Can I help you madam?

Customer: I'm looking for a man's watch.

Tim: Well we have a sumptuous selection here: sports, evening, everyday watches. Do you see anything you like?

Customer:

Oh, I rather like that one.

Tim: Impeccable taste, madam. Now, just take it over to the cash till there and they'll wrap it up for you.

Customer: Thank you, goodbye.

Tim: Goodbye...Oh, you've dropped something madam. Madam! Oh she's gone. Let's see 50, 100, 150 pounds! Well you know what they say Tim, a fool and her money..

Episode 15: A heart-to-heart

Helen: Hello?

Alice: Hi Helen.

Helen: What's up Alice?

Alice:

It's so quiet at work I thought I'd give you a ring. A little bird told me that the landlord is your dad!

Helen: How did you find out?

Alice: Never mind about that. Why have you been keeping it a secret for so long?

Helen: Well because as soon as people know how rich my parents are, they start treating me differently. When you and Tim came to live here I wanted to start afresh so I decided not to tell anyone.

Alice: Oh Helen you're such a silly goose! I promise, it won't make any difference to us! So no more secrets OK?

Helen: OK then.

Episode 16: A kitchen romance

Michal: Oh Bronka! I'm so miserable! Alice doesn't want to go out with me.

Helen: Oh sorry, Michal. Am I interrupting something here?

Michal: No, no, I'm just pouring my heart out to Bronka.

Helen:

Oh yeah, I found out that Alice gave you a knock-back but it's not the end of the world. There are plenty more fish in the sea you know.

Michal: Fish? I don't want a fish, I want a date!

Helen: Well, there's someone right in front of you!

Michal: You're always too busy studying. You wouldn't go out with a guy like me.

Helen: Oh wouldn't I? Why don't you ask first!

Michal: Would you?

Helen: I'd love to!

Episode 17: Booking tickets*

Agent: I'm sorry sir, is that Tuesday the first or Thursday the third?

Michal: Thursday the third.

Agent: Right, and what time would you like?

Agent: OK, just let me put you on hold for a moment please.

Alice: She's just gone for a break. What's the matter?

Man:

I don't know. It's my son. He's stopped breathing.

Alice: Oh no! Wait a minute, I'll just phone for the doctor.

Man: There's no time. You have to give him mouth to mouth.

Alice: But I haven't done it before!

Alice: No, not for real. Wait while I find the phone.

Man: No! No, you must do it now!

Not that I've noticed. No, nothing seems to be missing.

Tim: Well, you dropped £150!

Customer: Really!

Tim: Yes. Now, how can I return your money?

Customer: Oh how refreshingly honest! But I think a small reward is in order, don't you?

Tim: Oh I couldn't.

Michal:

You look lovely in the winter light too you know.

Helen: Oh Michal, you're so sweet.

Michal: It's true. You're beautiful Helen.

Helen: You're quite a hunk yourself, you know.

Michal: That might be true but suddenly I'm feeling a little sea-sick.
