Hey special K.

Hey.

Jen I have coffee. I have coffee, can't do that

And I'm light so you better look out.

Oh no... are you wasted?

I was enjoying the sun. Where are your shoes?

In my bag.

What happened, did the wife come back home?

Was it emotional?

Where there tears?

Did she drag you by your hair? Toss you the the curb?

Maybe.

- Whatever - Oh your hair looks good.

You know I love you unconditionally right?

So you're not gonna hate me when I tell you you should probably

fix yourself a bit more before our boss sees us

because I know what you do when your time zone.

And I don't think she really wants you,

and I don't really want you to get fired

because you're my best friend I love you.

So you gonna put on your shoes and your coat?

Oh don't you fucking...

Mam, mam...

There's a line you don't cross. Don't cross it, don't finish my coffee.

You've finished my coffee before.

But there's more inside your house so it's fine.

It's the principle of the thing I think.

[Whispers taking the piss]

Maybe not.

[Overlapping - general chit chattering]

Good morning ladies.

Jenna, I understand why you're late but Caitlyn, really?

Hey I'm off tomorrow, see you later?

Yeah!

Are we doing lunch today?

No not today, I'm having lunch with my dad. It's my mum's birthday.

Right, you said something about that.

- Another time. - Yeah.

Hello free financial how may I help you?

Hey you.

What's up with the late thing are you feeling OK?

I'm late one time and everybody thinks something's wrong. I'm fine.

What's y'all.

Hush, you're late.

So, don't you think I know that?

Hush, really?

Ok well, I have to get back to work so...

Hold on.

- Are we going out Friday? - Yes, yes and yes.

It's my mum's birthday today and I'm gonna need it.

Right, sounds like a plan.

Whore.

What.

Hey, I have.. those are for you.

Great.

So, when are you gonna talk to Tony.

He's hot, and he wants you.

Are you really talking about this at work?

He works you, you work here, why not?

Maybe because I don't want to talk to someone who just wants to have sex with me.

- Why don't you ask him out? - Sex?

You don't know that, he's gorgeous but... he wants nothing to do with me.

OK I'll talk to him, now will you get out of here?

Thank you for calling Valvery financial call center, this is Caitlyn

how can I help you?

Hey baby girl how's your day going?

Hi daddy how are you?

I'm looking forward to our lunch

Me too.

- How are you doing today - Hmm, I'm OK.

- You know. - Yeah I do know.

OK well I don't want to chew up too much of your time.

I still wanted to make sure we were on for lunch.

Yes you go it, where are we going?

Don't know, play it by ear you know?

I'll talk to you in a while. I love you.

I love you too daddy bye

[Ringing positive and emotional music]

I love you too mum.

- Hey Caitlyn. - Hey.

Oh I'm so sorry, Hey Tony, I have a question real quick.

Sure what's up.

I was curious if, maybe you wanted too...

Never mind I have to go out for lunch with my dad. Maybe next time.

Oh wait Caitlyn.

It's not like I know where you work.

Oh god I made a total ass of myself before I came here.

How did you manage that?

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Jenna she's been bothering me about asking this guy from work out and...

So did you ask him out?

Well...

Didn't go very well?

That's an understatement.

Why is this so hard for me dad I've had 3 serious relationships

in my life and they all split because I won't put out.

Baby girl when you find the right guy, that's not gonna matter to him.

He's gonna value you for you.

Can we talk about something else dad?

Fine, whatever. What do you want to talk about?

What are we doing tonight?

We'll go to the cemetery and pay our respects like we usually do.

And having dinner after-wards yeah?

It's our usual dinner night so...

Dad. It's been 13 years, maybe it's time you tried going on a date with someone.

We'll find a hooker.

Caitlyn Elizabeth!

Ok... I can't believe you said that.

But I will try.

But you have to promise me you'll try too.

- I... - You heard me.

Now finish your lunch.

You're gonna be late for work.

Oh right

Still can't believe you're eating off the kids menu .

That's personal.

I like my fried chicken OK?

You always have! .

Yes, OK Mrs Summer, I'll talk to you next week.

Bye.

- Hey Caitlyn. - Hi Tony.

Look I'm really sorry about earlier.

Hey, don't worry about it. I know what you were trying to ask me.

I hope it didn't seem too forward?

I don't know, I'd love to go out with you sometime.

- Really? - Yeah

How does tonight sound?

I can't tonight, I'm having dinner with my dad, we're celebrating my mum's birthday.

How about tomorrow or Friday?

I think tomorrow sounds great!

OK awesome, do you just wanna go from work?

Er I'll pick you up at your house if you're OK with that?

OK, yeah well, I have to get going so...

Alright sounds good.

There's a peach if I ever saw one.

Yeah, yeah she's something else.

I'd love to get with that for a night.

Easy buddy I'm taking her out tomorrow night.

Really?

Damn, maybe I should have hit that before you.

Are you fucking serious, have you ever heard of sexual harassment.

Every day. It doesn't mean shit to me.

OK well what if I take this to the boss?

Go ahead, no witnesses, no problems for me.

Except for me you fucking dosh bag!

Judas, you are such a sick fuck, no go do your shitty ass job.

Or maybe, I'll run your name through the FBI database.

Am I gonna find something there that you won't like?

Be nice to me you fucking whore!

Really ass hole?

Wow Tony, Tony! Come on chill. Dog you need to go.

Go, go walk it out.

You all saw that he assaulted me you're all witnesses.

Heck no, nobody saw anything.

So dude, really?

- You need to... - Fucking dyke.

Dude, what an ass hole.

Oh my god what happened?

That creepy ass Judas was making eyes at you when Tony was totally

ready to kick his ass.

Told you he liked you.

I know. He asked me on a date right before.

Really? You go wild woman! Woo!

Stop it .

So, you gonna get some of that right?

OK, bye Jenna!!!

You're gonna tell me!

Nope!

Hi Mamma.

Happy birthday.

Er...

I have some news for you this year.

Not the same old stuff.

Er.

I have a date, with a guy named Tony from my department.

He's so nice Mamma, and good looking and so respectful and...

Everything you ever told me I should look for in a guy.

I think you'd like him.

He's nothing like any of the other guys I’ve dated before.

He said... our princesses have to kiss a few frogs in life.

Jen and I... we're still friends.

We're going in out later this week.

We're gonna go dancing.

We do it every other week from Liz and Tash from work.

I told you about them, a few years ago.

It's really nice having them.

I'm here with dad, as always and before I let him talk, I'm gonna read you something.

I'll try not to cry.

My mum made me laugh.

Wiped my tears, hugged me tight.

Cheered me on as I succeeded.

And picked me up when I fell.

She was strong when I couldn't be.

And yes, drove me a little crazy, at times with all the worrying.

But... I know and understand it was because she loved me.

And wanted to protect me.

Mums are promised from God you will always have a place to call home.

A shoulder to cry on, and a friend to depend on forever.
