Eastenders 20230711 transcript
Keanu Taylor: I wonder what little Peggy’s into.
Sharon Watts: With her gene pool, bigger bombs and bullets, I expect.
Keanu Taylor: Yeah. Oh, Lisa’s bringing her over at lunchtime. Are you going to be around?
Sharon Watts: Me’s Albie meeting his sister? Try and stop me.
Keanu Taylor: Um, it’s the wedding venue. They, uh… They didn’t receive the deposit by their deadline, so they’ve… They’ve given our date away.
Sharon Watts: What?!
Keanu Taylor: Well, the bank transfer must have failed or something.
Sharon Watts: No! I had my heart set on it.
Keanu Taylor: We’ll find another place, all right? Even better. I promise.
Matin Fowler: Right…I read online that pregnant women should grate dark chocolate on granola. It helps their blood flow for the baby, apparently.
Stacey Slater: Oh. Lil! Breakfast!
Matin Fowler: I was just trying to help.
Stacey Slater: Oh, will you just check over Arthur’s jungle project to make sure he hasn’t drawn any willies on the warthogs?
Eve Unwin: Yeah. Sorry. Sorry.
Stacey Slater: Did you order the seafood sauce for the fish finger baps?
Eve Unwin: Oh, damn, no. I forgot.
Matin Fowler: Don’t worry, just do what I used to do. Just mix up mayo and ketchup… There you go.
Stacey Slater: Mayo and ketchup! Cheap and tasty!
Matin Fowler: Thanks! What about the sauce?
Stacey Slater: Oh, Mum, will you pick Hope up after school and take her to gymnastics? I’m working.
Jean Slater: But you’ve got a date with Theo.
Stacey Slater: Oh, yeah. No. Don’t feel right.
Matin Fowler: Yeah, he’s a creep.
Jean Slater: He’s an intellectual.
Matin Fowler: Same thing.
Stacey Slater: Mum, look, I’ve got enough on my plate without you setting me up with Mr. Charisma. 有夠忙/ 給我介紹對象
Matin Fowler: Good decision.
Stacey Slater: You can shut up and all! All right? I don’t expect you and Theo to be mates, but he’s been very good to Lily. And I could do a lot worse, actually.
Matin Fowler: What?
Stacey Slater: Get Freddie to cover the van. I’m going to go on a date with Theo. Because I want to. Lil!
Denzel Danes: Kim. I was thinking you could do an Instagram Live about the disproportionate sentencing of black women. I mean, you have a platform. I mean – use it!
Kim Fox: Yeah, that’s a great idea, Denz. Great idea. Now, do you know what Mummy missed the most when she was away? Tickles! Ticka-ticka-tickles! Ticka-ticka-tickles!
Howie Danes: Room for a little one?
Kim Fox: Now, now! There’s time for Mr and Mrs Tickles later, if you know what I mean.
Howie Danes: Want me to take the kids to school?
Kim Fox: Oh! You are a prince amongst men. OK, you’ve got your…Mica? Mica! Please do not run away from Mummy. Anything could happen!
Mica Fox: I’m not a baby.
Kim Fox: Mica, you will always be my baby. Mica!
Matin Fowler: All right, stranger?
Liza Fowler: Oh, all right, Mart?
Matin Fowler: You’re sight for sore eyes! What you doing here?
Liza Fowler: Just thought I’d pop back and see some old mates.
Phil Mitchell: Oi! Lisa!
Matin Fowler: Mates? You OK?
Liza Fowler: Yeah, I’ve been fighting the men of Walford for years, Mart. Don’t you worry. Phil, you’ve met Keanu, ain’t you? Keanu, meet Phil.
Phil Mitchell: I can’t get hold of Louise. What are you hiding?
Liza Fowler: Nothing.
Keanu Taylor: So what time you bringing Peggy over?
Phil Mitchell: You’re letting him see her? After everything you said?
Liza Fowler: Yeah. I am. Cos he’s Peggy’s dad. And after everything you put me through trying to get access to Lou, I though you of all people would understand. But then empathy was never really your strong point, was it, Philip?
Phil Mitchell: You mess my granddaughter around and you’ll be sorry.
Liza Fowler: I’ll bring Peggy over at lunchtime. Mart, I’ve…I’ve got to go, cos I’m…I’m late for something but we’ll catch a cup of tea soon, yeah? All right?
Matin Fowler: There goes Hurricane Fowler.
Keanu Taylor: She was married to your brother, weren’t she?
Matin Fowler: Mark, yeah, yeah, a long time ago. He was bringing Louise up as his own. That’s where she got her name, actually, after our gran. The legendary Lou Beale. Lisa broke his heart when she left him.
Keanu Taylor: I didn’t know all that.
Matin Fowler: Look, I love Lisa. But she’ll make promises and then flake out. So take my advice – keep Peggy close. Don’t make the same mistake Mark did.
Mystery 1: Keep the change, babe.
Harvey Monroe: So where you taking Kathy on honeymoon?
Rocky Cotton: Greek Island Cruise, Bit of a touch. Got it half price. 有點感動
Mystery 1: You’ll have to apologize to Kathy after we have had our epic stag night, baby!
Bobby Beale: Steady on, lads. What’s exactly on… On the cards for this epic stag night anyway?
Harvey Monroe: Never you mind, my son. Never you mind.
Bobby Beale: Er…I couldn’t come, could I?
Harvey Monroe: No way. You’re the bride’s grandson.
Ben Mitchell: Motley Crue look rough. 睇落似倦
Mystery 4: Why are they being so shifty?
Ben Mitchell: Oh, Mum’s asked Bobby to infiltrate the stag and make sure nothing gets out of hand. How you getting on, Bob? 失去控制
Bobby Beale: Terribly.
Ben Mitchell: Do us a coffee will you, Marie?
Bobby Beale: Actually, can you help me?
Mystery 4: Go on, then. Why not?
Kim Fox: It’s a referral from the prison psychiatrist. It wasn’t exactly the Ritz, but it did send me crackers. PTSD. Anxiety disorder.
Sonia Fowler: Well, at least you got a diagnosis.
Kim Fox: They said that I should go to therapy.
Sonia Fowler: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy will help with your anxiety. Yeah, but EMDR will help you get to the root cause of the problem. Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing.
Kim Fox: Reprocessing? What am I, a laptop?
Sonia Fowler: Imagine, right, that your brain is an office filing cabinet, but the secretary hasn’t done any filing in years. There’s papers everywhere, yeah, nothing in the right order, but the trauma files are at the top of the pile, replaying images and sounds over and over, to stop you living your life.
Kim Fox: OK, so do you have X-ray specs?
Sonia Fowler: EMDR is like asking the secretary to do the filing, so everything’s in the right place.
Kim Fox: OK. Well, I’m going to call my secretary…Jeff. Yes, Jeff, cos my head is an equal opportunity work space.
Sonia Fowler: OK. So Jeff would put all the trauma files back in the memory filing cabinet, leaving you space in your head to live your life.
Kim Fox: Wow! Good old Jeff. So where do I sign up?
Sonia Fowler: Well, the waiting list is approximately two years.
Kim Fox: What? I’ve got a letter!
Sonia Fowler: Yeah. And all that letter does is get you to the front of the first queue. There are a lot of queues.
Kim Fox: Really. OK. Not a word, yeah? Oh! There he is, Mr Lover-Lover! 唔好同人講
Howie Danes: All right, Son? Kathy called, wanted to see if you were up for a shift at the Albert.
Kim Fox: Why didn’t she call me?
Howie Danes: Well, she didn’t want to put any pressure on you.
Kim Fox: Pressure? I was born for pressure. Listen, you tell Jeff I’ll see him soon. Sonia’s mate. Terrible shoes做唔掂去造鞋算啦的人. See you later.
Keanu Taylor: Albie is going to love having a sister. I bet she’s into, like, unicorns. Or Lego, you know. What’s she like?
Reiss Colwell: Well, like, erm…a female child? Oh, it’s Sharon. Shall I answer it? I don’t mind.
Keanu Taylor: No. I said no! I’m sorry, mate, all right?
Reiss Colwell: It’s OK.
Keanu Taylor: Can I ask your advice? As the manager of this place, if I wanted to take money out of the business, how would I go about that?
Reiss Colwell: What, as in a director’s salary? Or as in a dividend?
Keanu Taylor: As in … I need three grand in cash. Now.
Stacey Slater: Do you remember back in the day when you’d spend hours getting yourself tarted up, and now it’s just a wet wipe and a chewie?
Matin Fowler: Look, I’ve been told to back off, right, but, um, I’m worried about Stace and Theo. Yeah?
Eve Unwin: Look, I think she’s…She’s a big girl, Martin. You know? I think she deserves her own life.
Matin Fowler: Yeah. Yeah, I know. It’s just that… I don’t trust him. I don’t like him. And now he’s hanging around like a fart in a lift, and it just doesn’t feel right, you know?
Eve Unwin: Hmm…you sound a little bit jealous.
Matin Fowler: She’s the mother of my kids. Yeah? We’re co-parents. That’s it. And that’s…That is how we like it.
Eve Unwin: Yeah. Are you sure about that? Stacey and Martin sitting in the tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
Stacey Slater: Grow up! All right? That just proves why he’s had it in for Theo. Right. Let’s do this. 同Theo 過唔去
Eve Unwin: All right. Have a good one.
Sonia Fowler: Oh, I’ll have a sarnie, if you’re making one.
Reiss Colwell: Sonia, something terrible’s happened. Keanu’s asked me to move money round the business.
Sonia Fowler: Oh right…Well…least he ain’t asked you to hid a gun of something.
Reiss Colwell: Yeah, gun. What, Keanu has a gun?
Sonia Fowler: Well, it was a long time ago. Him and Ben were playing cops and robbers. Well, just robbers, really, and they weren’t really playing. And they kidnapped a cop. But don’t worry, it was only Callum.
Reiss Colwell: I’m going to faint.
Sonia Fowler: Well, people change. I mean, look at Lisa.
Reiss Colwell: Well, what did she do?
Sonia Fowler: She shot Phil.
Sonia Fowler: Oh, I’ll have a sarnie, if you’re making one.
Reiss Colwell: Sonia, something terrible’s happened. Keanu’s asked me to move money round the business.
Sonia Fowler: Oh right…Well…least he ain’t asked you to hid a gun of something.
Reiss Colwell: Yeah, gun. What, Keanu has a gun?
Sonia Fowler: Well, it was a long time ago. Him and Ben were playing cops and robbers. Well, just robbers, really, and they weren’t really playing. And they kidnapped a cop. But don’t worry, it was only Callum.
Reiss Colwell: I’m going to faint.
Sonia Fowler: Well, people change. I mean, look at Lisa.
Reiss Colwell: Well, what did she do?
Sonia Fowler: She shot Phil.
Reiss Colwell: So.. I’m working for a gun-toting gangster and living with an attempted murderer?
Sonia Fowler: Reiss, breathe, all right? It’s just sharks swimming with other sharks. They leave tadpoles like you and me alone, as long as you keep what I said to yourself. Now, this thing with Keanu – is it illegal, or just on the line?
Reiss Colwell: Well, it’s on the line, but just.
Sonia Fowler: Well, you can put the knife down, unless you’re planning on buttering him to death.
Liza Fowler: Right, I’m taking Peggy to see her dad. You fancy The Vic later? I could murder a drink.
Sonia Fowler: Oh yeah. That’d be lovely. Good luck!
Reiss Colwell: I’ve got to sort Keanu’s money.
Mystery 5: Oh. We don’t usually see you in here at lunchtime.
Stacey Slater: I’ve got a date.
Mystery 5: He can read.
Stacey Slater: I can read, snotty cow.
Mystery 5: Let me show you to your table.
Stacey Slater: Oh, right! Ravi got you fetching and carrying now, has he?
Mystery 5: It’s all hands on deck when the family empire spans so many industries.
Stacey Slater: Whatever, waitress.
Theo Hawthorne: You look beautiful. Is that a new perfume?
Stacey Slater: Er, oh, yeah. Lil must’ve nicked mine, so…I had to borrow some spritz. It’s Eve’s. Do you like it?
Mystery 5: Amazing the different flavors of chip fat you can get these days.
Theo Hawthorne: That’s a bit rude.
Mystery 5: Did I say that out loud? I’ll get some water for your table.
Theo Hawthorne: Right, this is on me. What we having?
Stacey Slater: I tell you what, let’s get one portion of chips, extra ketchup, extra mayo, just to annoy her.
Theo Hawthorne: You’re joking, right?
Stacey Slater: No.
Theo Hawthorne: I’ve got to say, it’s nice to spend time with you away from the books. That’s one of the advantages of home tutoring is getting to know the family.
Stacey Slater: Especially the mums. Erm, look, I need to ask you this. Are you just tutoring Lily to get close to me?
Theo Hawthorne: Will you excuse me for a minute?
Stacey Slater: Blimey! I thought you’d got lost in there. Anyone’d think you didn’t want to answer my question.
Theo Hawthorne: Stacy…I’m a teacher because I care passionately about the next generation. These days, I care even more about the kids society forgot about. The marginalized. The excluded. I was one of those kids.
Stacey Slater: You? What’re posh. You’ve got a book in your back pocket!
Theo Hawthorne: No. Proper council estate kid me. Look, my mum died when I was a baby, and then my dad got ill and I was his carer. I slipped through the cracks in the system. But I had a wonderful teacher. Mrs Eggo. She went out of her way to inspire me. She put me on the right path and made me see opportunities rather than limitations. That’s why I love tutoring Lily. She deserves to know what she can achieve.
Stacey Slater: I wish I’d had a teacher like you.
Theo Hawthorne: Lily’s education remains my priority. I’m mortified that I confused the boundaries.
Stacey Slater: No. No, you haven’t. I just let people get in my head.
Theo Hawthorne: Can we start again?
Stacey Slater: Chip?
Theo Hawthorne: I mean, when you think about it, the gulf between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat is not something that everybody takes…
Stacey Slater: Right, That’s me. Thanks for the date.
Theo Hawthorne: Thanks for the chips. You’re wonderful. Please…can we do this again?
Stacey Slater: Yeah.
Theo Hawthorne: That was nice.
Stacey Slater: Yeah. Call me.
Theo Hawthorne: Will do.
Sharon Watts: Peggy’s going to love it. You’ll be fine, OK?
Keanu Taylor: Hello. You ready to meet your brother?
Keanu Taylor: And the dinosaur’s name is called Phil…ippa. Philipa! ”Why are you so grumpy, Philippa?”
Liza Fowler: Anyone’d think you had two kids, not one.
Sharon Watts: Let it go, Lisa.
Liza Fowler: When my daughter finally dusts herself down from the pain you two caused, then I’ll let it go. Right, I’ll leave you to it. Make sure you look after her.
Keanu Taylor: Right, bye, Nan! Say bye!
Liza Fowler: Bye, darling. Bye!
Keanu Taylor: Mummy! Auntie Sharon! Yeah. Albie and Peggy want you to come play with us. Come on.
Sharon Watts: Oh, what have we got there, then? Hey.
Keanu Taylor: We’ll, um… We’ll find a new wedding venue, I promise.
Sharon Watts: And wherever it is, I’d love Peggy to be our flower girl. Where’s Mr Bunny? He’s going to hop on your head.
Mystery 4: There you go, gents. I heard there’s a stag night coming up.
Mystery 1: Well, we’ve got something big for the Rockster.
Harvey Monroe: Going to make Vegas look like a night out at the bingo.
Mystery 4: Oh, wow! I won’t waste your time, then.
Rocky Cotton: What did you have in mind?
Mystery 4: I was going to offer free cocktails to start the night. I was taught how to make them the mixologist at The Beverly Hills Hotel.
Mystery 1: Don’t tell us…
Harvey Monroe: You’ve been there.
Rocky Cotton: Yeah, I have. Twice.
Mystery 4: And you guys, you’re the clientele he needs to launch his new cocktail to a worldwide audience. If you guys start your night here with my mate’s cocktail, I’ll tag you on his socials and you’ll be seen by everyone in Hollywood.
Rocky Cotton: I’m going to need a new profile pic. ‘Stag-nigh of 1,000 stars.’
Mystery 4: Oh, my friend would expect Gen Z to be involved. For his brand. But…Bobby, you’ll be joining them, won’t you?
Bobby Beale: Oh uh…Only if you don’t mind, Rocky, er…
Rocky Cotton: Uh, no no no. It’s err.. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely.
Mystery 4: Sweet!
Ben Mitchell: Bobby Beale, you absolute beauty. You’ve put me in the mood for some sport here. Well, Rock. That’s the stag night sorted, then. But, um, you know Mum is expecting you to organize the hen as well.
Eve Unwin: Howie. Hey. Um… Is Kim OK? The Albert should be open, and there’s no sign of her.
Howie Danes: Well, she said she was all right, but…What was she telling you yesterday?
Eve Unwin: Why don’t we find her and she can tell you herself?
Howie Danes: Won’t be long, folks.
Eve Unwin: Where do you reckon she’s got to?
Howie Danes: Bad week?|
Kim Fox: I’m fine.
Howie Danes: Looks like it.
Kim Fox: I don’t want to bother you.
Howie Danes: Why don’t you try me?
Kim Fox: In prison…I saw a psychiatrist…and he confirmed it. I have PTSD. I said to him, “‘Do me a favour, Doc. I just crashed a car in the Argee Bhajee, I didn’t serve in Iraq.” Post-traumatic stress disorder. That’s why I fell apart in court. This explains why my head always hurts. My brain is always in two different places at the same time. I’m either in the past, crashing the car, or I’m locked away in a cell re-living the traumas. Over and Over with the pain, the panic, the noise. Or I’m living in the future. You know, I’m fearing the future. I’m…just waiting for something bad to happen. Waiting for something to hurt me or…for the people I love, to hurt them. It’s…The phone calls, the…The bang on the doors. It’s..I’m never just here. I’m never just in the moment. Talk about being needy. I didn’t want to admit it. You’ve only known me when the dial’s turned up to 11. You know, The Kimfluencer. I’m supposed to be the Fun-Foxie. But I’ve let you down. I’m just some massive pain in the butt. And I’m sorry. I’m giving you permission to run to the hills. 走難去山坡
Howie Danes: I’ve got a confession too. I don’t care about Fun-time Foxie. It’s not why I’m with you. I’m with you because of your massive heart. Now, unless you’re hiding a secret heart bypass from me and all…then nothing’s changed. You’re still the woman I love. You’re not needy. You’ve got a mental illness. Please let me take care of you.
Kim Fox: There’s not an appointment for two years. Do you really want to be stuck with me, with this, for years?
Howie Danes: Yeah. As long as it takes. Look, we’ll go private. I’ve, erm…got some money I’ve been stashing away for a rainy day. 私人醫生
Kim Fox: Really? Cos Sonia was talking about this therapy with…Something to do with this…guy called Jeff who does the filing. Secretary or something. I don’t know.
Howie Danes: Well, if it gives you hope, it’s happening. I love you, Kim.
Kim Fox: I love you, Howie.
Keanu Taylor: We, uh, we couldn’t drag Peggy away from Uncle Zack’s story time. Her and Albie are besotted with him, but she’s ready to pick up whenever you are.
Sharon Watts: She ate all her dinner and a bit of Albie’s. Takes after her dad.
Liza Fowler: Right, well, I’m going to get her back to Sonia’s. Thanks for looking after her.
Keanu Taylor: Lisa, I’ll never be able to make things better with Louise, but I’m so grateful you let me get to know Peggy. One of the best days of my life. Can I see her again?
Liza Fowler: Yeah. Sure. For a price.
Keanu Taylor: I gave you three grand yesterday.
Liza Fowler: That was just for starters, Keanu. You want a relationship with your daughter? It’s going to cost you another 20 grand. And two grand every month till she’s 18. Call it maintenance.
Keanu Taylor: You’re ridiculous. I don’t have that kind of money, Lisa.
Liza Fowler: Sharon does. And Peggy deserves everything that Albie has. It’s the least you can do.
Keanu Taylor: You’re mad. I’m telling Sharon.
Liza Fowler: You going to tell her you gave me her wedding money and all? You want another day with Peggy, you know what you got to do. See you.
Keanu Taylor: Reiss is doing a great job at the Arches.
Sonia Fowler: Oh, I’m pleased to hear that. I bet it’s all dodgy motors and topless calendars over there!
Keanu Taylor: Actually, Sharon, I was, um…I was thinking maybe he could take over your other accounts. You’re always moaning about the state of the boxing gym books.
Sharon Watts: We could talk about it, Keanu.
Sonia Fowler: Well, you’d like that, wouldn’t you?
Keanu Taylor: Great. Good. Right. More drinks? Come on. Reiss, give me a hand.
Reiss Colwell: Please don’t ask me for anything dodgy.
Keanu Taylor: Look, me and Sharon are getting married. Her businesses are my businesses, soon anyway.
Reiss Colwell: The UK uses international accounting standards, which don’t recognize…what you’re describing.
Keanu Taylor: Lisa’s blackmailing me. If I don’t fork out 20 grand by tomorrow, and then two grand every month, I’m never going to see my daughter again.
Reiss Colwell: That’s awful.
Keanu Taylor: You have no idea what she’s capable of.
Reiss Colwell: I do.
Keanu Taylor: Good. So you’re going to help me? Yeah?
Liza Fowler: Nanny going to get you that cuddly toy you wanted?
Liza Fowler: Come on. Come on. Come on.
Liza Fowler: I’ll get it you tomorrow, darling. All right? I promise, I will.
