Ah! On time as always, mon petite fromage.

0:00:250:00:28

Now, we have the table at 2:15,

0:00:280:00:30

which gives us plenty of time to stroll over...

0:00:300:00:32

I'm sorry, Heston, I haven't quite finished.

0:00:320:00:34

Do you want to go on through, Helen? I'll be right with you.

0:00:340:00:37

-Thanks, Ruhma.

-OK.

0:00:370:00:40

You have another patient?

0:00:400:00:41

Oh, look at your little face.

0:00:410:00:43

Look, Mrs Mathews, she called this morning.

0:00:430:00:45

Her previously-very-lovely partner

0:00:450:00:47

has become all distant and moody since she's got pregnant,

0:00:470:00:49

so I agreed to fit her in.

0:00:490:00:51

-We'll lose our table if we're not there in...

-We won't be late!

0:00:510:00:54

I just need five much-needed minutes to give her moral support.

0:00:540:00:58

Oh, you are a wonderful woman.

0:00:580:01:00

Yeah, well, it has been said. OK!

0:01:000:01:02

So, er...how are things?

0:01:050:01:07

Really, really well, thanks.

0:01:070:01:09

That's very good. And Mark?

0:01:090:01:12

He's great.

0:01:120:01:13

OK, Helen, I don't mean to burst your bubble or anything,

0:01:140:01:17

but the last time we met, you were thinking of ending things.

0:01:170:01:20

-What's changed?

-It's hard to explain.

0:01:200:01:23

I just feel like I understand him better now.

0:01:230:01:25

Did that book on prescription help?

0:01:250:01:27

I did read this one and, not that it was bad or anything,

0:01:270:01:30

I'm sure it works for other couples, it just wasn't the one for us.

0:01:300:01:34

It mainly suggested we sit down and talk, and you know Mark!

0:01:340:01:37

Getting him to tell me what he had for lunch is like getting blood out of a stone.

0:01:370:01:41

Right. Er...so, if it wasn't the book...

0:01:410:01:43

It wasn't this one, but while I was waiting for you last time,

0:01:430:01:46

I saw this one on your shelves.

0:01:460:01:49

How To Speak Man: A User's Guide For The Modern Woman.

0:01:490:01:52

-Is this on prescription?

-If it's not, it should be.

0:01:520:01:55

I'm not kidding. This book has totally changed our relationship!

0:01:550:01:58

How are you, Mrs Tembe?

0:02:030:02:05

Oh, er...it's just... Well, the hernia, you know.

0:02:050:02:09

Is it still painful?

0:02:090:02:10

Well, no, not really.

0:02:100:02:12

It's unfortunate that my appointment at St Phil's is not for another few weeks.

0:02:120:02:15

Well, if it gets worse, you can always come and see me.

0:02:150:02:19

Oh, I appreciate that, Dr Carter. Thank you.

0:02:190:02:21

The delays for these appointments can be ridiculous!

0:02:210:02:25

Yes. Well, I do not mind the wait.

0:02:250:02:28

Yes, well, I do. Why is Ruhma taking so long?

0:02:280:02:31

Well, I really don't...

0:02:310:02:33

I am feeling like a cheeky burger.

0:02:330:02:36

That's strange, because you look like a dog's dinner! Ha-ha!

0:02:360:02:38

Ah, you're some kind of comedy genius.

0:02:380:02:41

-For goodness' sake!

-What? I thought it was funny.

0:02:410:02:43

Ah, about time!

0:02:430:02:45

-Right, well, I will see you soon.

-Absolutely.

0:02:450:02:48

And thank you again for the book.

0:02:480:02:49

Ah. Well, it's nothing to do with me, but I'm really glad it helped.

0:02:490:02:52

Everyone should read it. Especially men!

0:02:520:02:54

If we leave now, we could still get a starter and a main course.

0:02:540:02:58

Was she referring to a book on prescription?

0:02:580:03:00

No, no, no, she got this one from our library.

0:03:000:03:02

-How To Speak Man.

-How to speak man what?

0:03:020:03:04

Ruhma, you know how many weeks it's taken me to get this table! Can we please just go?

0:03:040:03:08

Right, just a second, listen, this is amazing.

0:03:080:03:10

Helen swears this book has given her a fresh perspective on men.

0:03:100:03:13

-Join me for lunch?

-Oh, I suppose so.

0:03:140:03:17

Well, don't sound too excited(!)

0:03:170:03:19

Huh! You do realise that at this point in the relationship,

0:03:190:03:22

I already know everything that you're going to say,

0:03:220:03:25

and I'm bored of the Icon's menu, too.

0:03:250:03:27

But Carlos is making his tiramisu cupcakes this week.

0:03:270:03:30

Oh, well, in that case, I could force myself.

0:03:300:03:33

Right. Trumped by a cupcake. Makes me feel special(!)

0:03:330:03:36

-Ha-ha!

-What a load of monumental claptrap!

0:03:360:03:39

The idea that reading a book once can turn a relationship around...

0:03:390:03:44

-But it did.

-What's going on?

0:03:440:03:46

Dr Carter seems to have taken exception to this book.

0:03:460:03:50

Forget research, forget scientific rigour.

0:03:500:03:53

Apparently, all one needs to understand the complexities

0:03:530:03:56

of the opposite sex is a superannuated pamphlet(!)

0:03:560:03:59

If you would just listen to me for a moment...

0:03:590:04:01

I don't want to listen, I want to be at Chez Margot,

0:04:010:04:04

where I have fought to get us a table

0:04:040:04:06

so we can enjoy their spectacular menu.

0:04:060:04:08

And we soon will be, but you can't dismiss something out of hand without reading it first.

0:04:080:04:12

-Look, Helen...

-Could not be more wrong.

0:04:120:04:15

-Oh, really?

-Now it's getting interesting.

0:04:150:04:16

We could've sold tickets for this.

0:04:160:04:18

The self-help book is the bane of my existence.

0:04:180:04:22

Written by some illiterate moron

0:04:220:04:24

who won't know his hyphen from a semicolon.

0:04:240:04:26

I really don't need you to lecture me, Heston.

0:04:260:04:28

I'm not lecturing you, I'm simply trying to explain

0:04:280:04:30

that this book could not have turned your patient's relationship around in a matter of days.

0:04:300:04:35

-And I will tell you why.

-Mansplaining.

0:04:350:04:37

-Textbook!

-Man-what?

0:04:370:04:39

-Heston, have you even read it?

-I don't need to.

0:04:390:04:42

Typical man.

0:04:420:04:43

Oh, the cliche used by all women down through the centuries.

0:04:430:04:47

-Heston...?

-Look, see what you've done?

0:04:470:04:49

We may miss our table. So, can we please go?!

0:04:490:04:51

I'm suddenly not very hungry, thank you.

0:04:510:04:53

Ayesha? Mrs Tembe? Shall we...?

0:04:550:04:58

-Shall you what?

-I thought we were having lunch?

0:04:580:05:00

Well, suddenly, all women seem to have lost their appetite.

0:05:000:05:04

Ahhhhh.

0:05:040:05:06

-What just happened?

-Er...Ruhma just dropped the mic.

0:05:110:05:14

Yeah, then Zara picked it up and dropped it again.

0:05:140:05:17

-Translation?

-You've riled the sisterhood, Heston,

0:05:170:05:20

and now we're all in trouble.

0:05:200:05:22

But don't worry. We're going to need sandwiches, any kind.

0:05:220:05:25

And coffee, please.

0:05:250:05:27

Don't worry, Heston, we won't let you go through this alone.

0:05:270:05:30

-Through what?

-That's the spirit.

0:05:310:05:33

You...you saw that, right?

0:05:350:05:37

Well, Dr Carter could have, er...

0:05:370:05:39

-well, behaved better in the discussion.

-You think?!

0:05:390:05:43

We are going to need salad and fruit.

0:05:430:05:46

Oh, who am I kidding?

0:05:470:05:49

We're going to need cake.

0:05:490:05:50

I'll go. To be honest,

0:05:500:05:51

I'm not exactly sure what all the fuss is about. It's just a book.

0:05:510:05:54

Well, my thoughts exactly.

0:05:540:05:56

Instead of getting me some cake, can you just get me some fruit, please?

0:05:580:06:01

-Carlos is doing tiramisu cupcakes.

-Really?

0:06:010:06:04

Well, just get me a little one and maybe some...

0:06:050:06:07

Can you just go and we'll explain when you get back?

0:06:070:06:09

Look, you don't have to all get involved, OK?

0:06:090:06:11

This will all blow over once he calms down.

0:06:110:06:14

This isn't about you two any more. This is about all women.

0:06:140:06:17

-It is?

-Let's have a look at this book.

0:06:170:06:19

We're going to need ammunition.

0:06:190:06:21

Ammunition?

0:06:210:06:23

This is no longer a lunch break, ladies.

0:06:230:06:25

This...is war.

0:06:250:06:28

-Sandwich run?

-Yep. You, too?

-Cake.

0:06:280:06:32

-Hm!

-What was all that about in there?

0:06:320:06:34

-I don't know, you tell me.

-They're just bored, if you ask me.

0:06:340:06:37

Grown-ups bickering about some stupid book.

0:06:370:06:40

Besides, the whole men and women thing

0:06:400:06:42

speaking different languages is so last century.

0:06:420:06:45

Everything's out in the open now, or at least it should be.

0:06:450:06:48

-Why do you think I dumped Tyler?

-Er...

0:06:480:06:51

He gave the whole spiel about having to protect me because I'm a woman.

0:06:510:06:55

Like I need any of that!

0:06:550:06:57

-Yeah.

-Unreconstructed, that's Tyler.

0:06:570:06:59

I looked it up. Not like you.

0:06:590:07:01

You're totally constructed, aren't you?

0:07:010:07:03

Thanks to this book, Helen has finally been able to understand

0:07:030:07:07

how scared and vulnerable Mark's been since she got pregnant.

0:07:070:07:10

It's really helped her to encourage him to talk about his feelings.

0:07:100:07:14

Heston is very happy to express how he feels,

0:07:160:07:18

but doesn't always understand why.

0:07:180:07:20

-READS:

-Women share, men hide.

0:07:200:07:22

I'm afraid I understand Dr Carter's position.

0:07:220:07:26

Some of these self-help books offer no help whatsoever.

0:07:260:07:30

-READS:

-All women know that men are incapable

0:07:300:07:32

of uttering those three little words.

0:07:320:07:34

I...don't...know.

0:07:340:07:37

Now, that is very true.

0:07:370:07:39

The problem is, Heston and I are rubbish at arguing.

0:07:390:07:42

Didn't look like that to me.

0:07:420:07:44

You hear about people that are able to argue in a very constructive way.

0:07:440:07:47

Well, we both shout at each other, then he sulks and that's it.

0:07:470:07:51

-Probably thanks to our history.

-Your history?

0:07:520:07:55

Er...Heston's heart condition.

0:07:570:07:58

So I'm always very super-careful not to upset him.

0:07:580:08:01

Well, that is very wise.

0:08:010:08:03

But it means that we can never argue when we need to

0:08:030:08:06

and it is impossible for me to win, especially when I know I'm right!

0:08:060:08:09

-OK, that is it!

-What is?

0:08:090:08:11

Good arguments are at the heart of successful relationships,

0:08:110:08:14

and it's about time you won one!

0:08:140:08:16

-I'll be your coach.

-Sorry, what?

0:08:160:08:19

I am going to coach you how to win the next round.

0:08:210:08:24

Is that not going to exacerbate the situation?

0:08:240:08:27

It can't be any more exacerbated!

0:08:270:08:28

Do you think this is a good idea?

0:08:280:08:30

-Have you ever seen me lose an argument with Daniel?

-Where do we start?

0:08:300:08:33

OK. You're going to need a sparring partner. Someone to role-play with.

0:08:330:08:37

Well, perhaps I might be able to help.

0:08:370:08:39

I don't think this is really your field, Mrs Tembe.

0:08:390:08:42

Oh. I think you'd be surprised, Dr Carmichael.

0:08:420:08:48

OK. OK.

0:08:480:08:50

So, Ruhma, you stand here, Mrs Tembe, here, face-to-face!

0:08:500:08:53

-Right.

-Right, like this?

-Yeah. That's perfect.

0:08:530:08:56

Now, look each other right in the eye.

0:08:560:08:58

-Now, Mrs Tembe?

-Yes?

0:08:590:09:02

Give us your best Heston.

0:09:020:09:03

Me? Do Dr Carter?!

0:09:050:09:08

I can't argue properly with Ruhma!

0:09:090:09:13

You seemed to be doing pretty well in there.

0:09:130:09:15

Well, that's just shouting.

0:09:150:09:17

And then Ruhma stares at me, like I'm some petulant schoolboy,

0:09:170:09:22

which I prove by sulking.

0:09:220:09:23

How do you usually resolve things?

0:09:230:09:26

Well, I calm down and, er...then we forget about it

0:09:260:09:29

and carry on like nothing has happened.

0:09:290:09:31

I just wish I could get a bit better at it.

0:09:310:09:34

It'd be good if Jimmi was here.

0:09:340:09:37

Jimmi is very composed in an argument.

0:09:370:09:39

-Daniel?

-What?

0:09:400:09:43

Come on, you live with one of the world's most argumentative women and you seem to do all right.

0:09:430:09:47

It's years of dedicated practice, but...

0:09:470:09:49

I would appreciate any tips.

0:09:490:09:51

All right. You're overcomplicating it.

0:09:520:09:54

OK, how do I not overcomplicate things?

0:09:540:09:57

You have to make her believe that you are listening.

0:09:570:10:00

Then you wait for the right moment, when her guard is down

0:10:000:10:03

and she thinks she's won,

0:10:030:10:04

then you quietly make your point and win her over.

0:10:040:10:08

It's a waiting game.

0:10:080:10:10

-Like chess?

-Yep.

0:10:100:10:12

-Or trout-tickling.

-Is it?

0:10:120:10:14

No, no, carry on, Daniel, I could do with your help.

0:10:140:10:17

All right, you're going to need to be put through your paces.

0:10:170:10:20

And you will need a sparring partner.

0:10:200:10:23

Whoa! Role-play! Brilliant!

0:10:230:10:26

Me? No, I...I couldn't play Ruhma!

0:10:280:10:31

I really wish you'd listened to the whole story before you jumped in.

0:10:330:10:36

-AS HESTON:

-Sister Hanif, you are...

0:10:360:10:38

No, no. Because he wouldn't call me that, would he?

0:10:380:10:41

OK. Well, let's just not worry about names, let's just worry about content.

0:10:410:10:44

Mrs Tembe. Dr Carter, your move.

0:10:440:10:47

-AS HESTON:

-Sister...

0:10:470:10:48

You are a strong and intelligent woman.

0:10:500:10:53

Perhaps we could discuss this over a nice cup of Lapsang Souchong?

0:10:530:10:59

Er...the point is that if you had listened,

0:10:590:11:02

you'd have understood the quality of the book is not the issue.

0:11:020:11:06

-The issue is...

-You need to interrupt her.

0:11:060:11:08

But I do not want to be rude.

0:11:080:11:10

-You're not you, you're Heston.

-Dr Carter is never rude!

0:11:100:11:12

Are we talking about the same person?

0:11:120:11:15

You need to interrupt her, so go on!

0:11:150:11:17

Right, the issue is that Helen clearly got something from that book that she found helpful.

0:11:170:11:22

-AS HESTON:

-Right, yes, you make a very good point here.

0:11:220:11:24

What?! No!

0:11:240:11:26

You are making a very good point and, er...I would like to apologise.

0:11:260:11:30

Mrs Tembe, what are you doing?

0:11:300:11:32

I am being Dr Carter, like you asked!

0:11:320:11:33

But you're being too nice!

0:11:330:11:35

Dr Carter is a nice man!

0:11:350:11:37

-This is never going to work.

-Well, I am sorry!

0:11:370:11:39

I refuse to be a nasty version of Dr Carter if I do not believe it!

0:11:390:11:43

All right, Mrs Tembe, you may stand down.

0:11:430:11:45

You are relieved of being Dr Carter.

0:11:450:11:48

Well, thank you. I was finding the whole thing very stressful.

0:11:480:11:51

What are we going to do now?

0:11:510:11:52

I suppose I'm going to have to do Dr Carter.

0:11:520:11:55

Whilst I appreciate that your patient reported a positive outcome,

0:11:570:12:03

that is in no way connected to

0:12:030:12:05

the book's efficacy as a relation...

0:12:050:12:09

-Are you listening to anything I'm saying?

-AS RUHMA:

-Of course, love.

0:12:090:12:12

I hang on every word you say.

0:12:120:12:14

But since neither of us have read that book,

0:12:140:12:16

how can we make any comment on its efficacious nature?

0:12:160:12:19

Al? What are you doing?

0:12:190:12:21

-AS RUHMA:

-I'm doing the Ruhma...Ruhma Hanif voice.

0:12:210:12:24

-She doesn't sound like that.

-She sounds like that.

0:12:240:12:26

-AS RUHMA:

-Al, can I have a cup of tea?

0:12:260:12:28

She sounds much more...like this.

0:12:280:12:29

-DEEP VOICE:

-That...that...that's how she sounds.

0:12:290:12:32

That's Mrs Tembe.

0:12:320:12:33

-AS MRS TEMBE:

-Dr Carter, what are you doing?

0:12:330:12:36

Wait, wait, wait!

0:12:360:12:37

Boys, um...can we get back on track?

0:12:370:12:39

Fine, you do it.

0:12:390:12:41

-No.

-Come on, we've both done her.

0:12:410:12:43

OK. All right. Um... Hm!

0:12:450:12:48

AS RUHMA: You can't just dismiss a book like that.

0:12:480:12:50

That's very good, but this is not really helping me.

0:12:500:12:53

This isn't really my bag.

0:12:530:12:54

I prefer fact-based arguments, I can't do emotional mind games.

0:12:540:12:58

Can you do Ruhma?

0:12:580:13:00

-OK, if that's what you want.

-Without the voice.

0:13:000:13:02

Absolutely. OK, fine, let's go.

0:13:020:13:05

Um...I'm going to make a point and I want you to challenge me...

0:13:050:13:09

Can we just get on with it?

0:13:090:13:10

Without losing your temper. OK?

0:13:100:13:12

-AS HESTON:

-That is a textbook example of female nonsense!

0:13:120:13:16

And what about men and their nonsense?

0:13:160:13:18

Every war in history was started by a man.

0:13:180:13:20

-AS HESTON:

-What's that got to do with anything?

0:13:200:13:22

We're not talking about war, we're talking about this...this ludicrous book...!

0:13:220:13:25

-Will you just stop saying ludicrous?!

-That's really good, but don't raise your voice.

0:13:250:13:29

If you lose your temper, you lose the argument. It's a sign of weakness.

0:13:290:13:33

Mrs Tembe?

0:13:330:13:34

-Yes?

-Thoughts?

0:13:360:13:38

Well, er... Yes, er...

0:13:390:13:42

Well, I listened to what you have said

0:13:420:13:45

in terms of the general conversation and I, er...

0:13:450:13:49

Well, you are probably right, Dr Carmichael.

0:13:490:13:53

See?

0:13:530:13:55

OK. So I...I don't raise my voice.

0:13:550:13:58

I stay calm, no matter what.

0:13:580:14:01

And I give him enough rope to hang himself.

0:14:010:14:04

And then I do Dr Carter.

0:14:040:14:07

What if she doesn't have any weaknesses?

0:14:090:14:11

Everyone's got weaknesses.

0:14:110:14:13

It's just a question of you letting her think she's right

0:14:130:14:15

until she reveals what hers are.

0:14:150:14:17

OK. Try me again.

0:14:170:14:20

OK. Hm!

0:14:200:14:23

AS RUHMA: Men have to be seen to be right.

0:14:230:14:26

That is simply not true, and I thought we said no voice?

0:14:260:14:30

Don't change the subject.

0:14:300:14:32

OK, fine. All right, um...

0:14:320:14:34

You can't acknowledge when you're wrong because it makes you seem weak.

0:14:340:14:38

That's complete nonsense!

0:14:380:14:39

OK, don't raise your voice. The moment you do that, she's won.

0:14:390:14:42

Let her be the one to lose her temper and then you win, right?

0:14:420:14:46

Keep the high ground.

0:14:460:14:47

-AS HESTON:

-I...I absolutely don't accept what you're saying!

0:14:470:14:51

I realise, Heston, that you find this new concept difficult to understand,

0:14:510:14:55

which is completely unsurprising, since you are a man!

0:14:550:14:58

Better! But be careful not to give him any ammunition, though.

0:14:580:15:01

Cliches, generalisations, they are all grist to his mill.

0:15:010:15:04

What mill? What's going on?

0:15:040:15:07

Well, er... Well, Dr Carmichael was just offering

0:15:070:15:11

the benefits of her experience of how to, um...

0:15:110:15:14

-Bake better bread.

-Mm.

0:15:140:15:16

OK.

0:15:160:15:17

You had better get those sandwiches to the boys.

0:15:190:15:21

They'll be starving. They're in Heston's room.

0:15:210:15:23

-Oh, OK. I guess I'll see you later, then.

-Hm-hm!

0:15:230:15:27

-OK, what is....?

-Uh-huh!

0:15:280:15:30

-OK, the coast is clear.

-It's a great relief to us all(!)

0:15:330:15:36

-You have to stop jumping in all the time.

-Mansplaining.

0:15:360:15:39

-That's not even a word.

-See?

0:15:390:15:41

-Sandwiches, boys.

-Ooo, finally. I'm ravenous!

0:15:410:15:44

Something very strange is going on in the staffroom.

0:15:440:15:47

Tell us something we don't know.

0:15:470:15:48

No, no, um...Zara was arguing with Ruhma.

0:15:480:15:50

-About what?

-Something to do with baking.

0:15:500:15:53

-Women!

-Except the funny thing was, Ruhma was calling Zara a man

0:15:530:15:57

and saying that's why she didn't know anything about baking.

0:15:570:15:59

Hey! They're role-playing, too!

0:15:590:16:02

You're right.

0:16:020:16:04

Don't be ridiculous! They've probably forgotten all about it.

0:16:040:16:06

No. No, no. Zara's got her teeth into this one, there's no chance of that.

0:16:060:16:10

Why don't I just apologise?

0:16:100:16:12

Why would you do that? That's exactly what she wants you to do.

0:16:120:16:15

I really don't care.

0:16:150:16:17

No, no. You've got a chance of winning this one, OK?

0:16:170:16:19

We need to know what they're planning.

0:16:190:16:20

We need some insider info.

0:16:200:16:23

How are you going to do that, send a spy into the staffroom?

0:16:230:16:26

-ZARA AS HESTON:

-I simply don't agree!

0:16:330:16:34

RUHMA: Just because you don't agree with something, it doesn't...

0:16:340:16:37

I'm sorry, I can't take it seriously.

0:16:370:16:39

-MRS TEMBE:

-Yeah, well, I'm not surprised!

0:16:390:16:42

-AYESHA:

-After this, arguing with the real thing is going to be a piece of...

0:16:420:16:45

-ZARA:

-OK, look, everyone, please let's just try and focus.

0:16:450:16:48

-ZARA AS HESTON:

-Ruhma, as I have said before,

0:16:480:16:50

I simply think that you are misunderstanding me.

0:16:500:16:52

RUHMA: And if you would just listen to me, Heston,

0:16:520:16:54

when you speak over me, it's a real clear sign that you are wrong.

0:16:540:16:58

-AYESHA:

-Like that isn't going to wind him up much(!)

0:16:580:17:00

-MRS TEMBE:

-Nurse Lee is right. We have taken this far enough.

0:17:000:17:03

Oi!

0:17:030:17:05

-Hi!

-What are you doing?

0:17:060:17:08

-Well, I was just, um...

-Right, that's it! Come on!

0:17:080:17:11

-Did you lose something, gentlemen?

-No comment.

0:17:110:17:15

Worst spy ever.

0:17:150:17:16

Heston, you and I need to have a chat, don't we?

0:17:160:17:19

-OK, now's your chance.

-Show her who's boss.

0:17:190:17:21

-Heston!

-Coming!

0:17:210:17:22

-What happened?

-I-I-I got caught.

0:17:340:17:37

-(They're coming.)

-Hm!

0:17:380:17:40

I was practising on it.

0:17:520:17:53

I look like a potato.

0:18:000:18:02

It's not supposed to be accurate.

0:18:020:18:04

Is there anything you want to say to me?

0:18:060:18:09

I'm happy for you to go first.

0:18:090:18:11

No, don't let her go first!

0:18:110:18:13

-He's a fish in a barrel.

-This is painful!

0:18:130:18:15

..Hear me out earlier. Helen has had a very tough time,

0:18:150:18:18

and this book, it's clearly helped their relationship.

0:18:180:18:21

I thought you'd be at least interested...

0:18:210:18:23

-I appreciate that, but...

-Can I just finish, please?

0:18:230:18:26

You seemed to have taken it as a personal affront that a book even exists

0:18:290:18:32

suggesting men are somehow different to women.

0:18:320:18:34

That's not what I said!

0:18:340:18:37

Heston, you invited me to speak first.

0:18:370:18:40

Do you want to change your mind?

0:18:400:18:41

Go ahead.

0:18:430:18:45

In this one lunch break, you've displayed all the characteristics

0:18:470:18:50

this book describes, proving that what it's got to say is correct.

0:18:500:18:54

-I haven't.

-You've been afraid of challenge and change.

-I am not.

0:18:540:18:57

You've been too scared to admit your own vulnerabilities.

0:18:570:19:00

And, yet again, unable to accept that you are wrong.

0:19:000:19:03

But I'm not wrong! I am right!

0:19:030:19:05

And this whole argument proves my point!

0:19:050:19:09

-You're doing it again.

-Sue me! Because I am right, Ruhma!

0:19:090:19:12

Because of this stupid book, you have spent the day

0:19:120:19:15

arguing with my picture on a chocolate cupcake!

0:19:150:19:19

-It's a tiramisu.

-The flavour's irrelevant!

0:19:190:19:21

Right, that is it, I am going in there.

0:19:210:19:24

No, Dr Carmichael!

0:19:240:19:25

This is not your fight.

0:19:250:19:27

A chocolate tiramisu cupcake versus a sandwich.

0:19:270:19:30

Right, that evens it up.

0:19:300:19:32

Everybody, place your bets! Who's going to win?

0:19:320:19:34

You've just put my face on a bacon sandwich.

0:19:340:19:37

I am not falling for that mock-offended...

0:19:400:19:42

It could just have easily been egg and cress, the point still stands!

0:19:420:19:45

As does mine.

0:19:450:19:47

I suggest that we agree that you were wrong, which you are,

0:19:470:19:50

and we move on like rational, sensible adults.

0:19:500:19:53

What do you say?

0:19:530:19:55

So, that didn't go so well?

0:19:560:19:58

What makes you think that?

0:19:580:20:00

Well, there was all that shouting and petulance for a start.

0:20:000:20:04

Yeah, but every crisis is an opportunity

0:20:040:20:06

so why don't we review the failure and learn from it?

0:20:060:20:09

OK. Next time I won't give her any more ammunition

0:20:090:20:13

by losing my temper and putting her photo on a bacon sandwich.

0:20:130:20:17

Is that enough "learning" for you?

0:20:170:20:19

I appreciate you're upset...

0:20:190:20:21

I'm not upset. I'm mortified that I let myself down.

0:20:210:20:26

Yes, you did. And, quite frankly, you let the team down.

0:20:260:20:29

No, I don't think you've let anyone down.

0:20:290:20:31

I just think this is a stupid argument that's got way out of hand

0:20:310:20:34

and you should probably just apologise and move on.

0:20:340:20:37

Whoa, hold your horses. Who said anything about apologising?

0:20:370:20:40

No, no. We know their tactics now. I bet you the next time you'll win.

0:20:400:20:44

I don't care. There's less than an hour's lunch left.

0:20:440:20:47

Sid is right. I'm going to go and apologise.

0:20:470:20:50

No, no, no, I'm afraid we can't let you do that, sunshine.

0:20:500:20:53

No, no. This isn't about you and Ruhma any more.

0:20:530:20:57

You're arguing for men everywhere.

0:20:570:20:59

Now, you're going to go back in there and you're going to win.

0:21:010:21:04

But we're not going to send you back in there empty-handed.

0:21:040:21:07

We're going to get you some inside information.

0:21:070:21:09

OK?

0:21:090:21:11

Oh, no, no, not again. No.

0:21:110:21:13

Yeah, Sid. We need some information from that book.

0:21:130:21:16

Forget about it! I'm not going back in there.

0:21:160:21:18

Me?

0:21:210:21:22

-Yeah, you.

-No, I...

0:21:220:21:24

I couldn't possibly do that.

0:21:240:21:26

I so wish I could have seen his face.

0:21:260:21:29

Well, I must say I did feel sorry for Dr Carter.

0:21:290:21:32

He brought it on himself.

0:21:320:21:33

No. You're right, Mrs Tembe. I went too far with the bacon sandwich.

0:21:330:21:38

You didn't start it.

0:21:380:21:39

No, but I'm going to finish it. I'm going to go and apologise.

0:21:390:21:43

Finally!

0:21:430:21:44

If you do that, you will simply perpetuate the idea

0:21:440:21:47

that women are the weaker sex.

0:21:470:21:49

Dr Carmichael, do you not think you are overreacting?

0:21:490:21:52

Just for a change.

0:21:520:21:53

It's over, Zara.

0:21:530:21:55

I cannot believe you're going to apologise.

0:21:550:21:57

After all the hard work we've done,

0:21:570:21:59

-you're just going to roll over and let Daniel win!

-Heston.

0:21:590:22:02

Heston. Whatever.

0:22:030:22:06

Well, I want no part of this.

0:22:070:22:09

You can apologise for all I care. Good luck with your loser afternoon.

0:22:090:22:13

Zara...

0:22:130:22:14

There you go. Sanity finally restored. Took long enough.

0:22:140:22:18

-I thought you were going to apologise.

-Yeah, I will in a bit.

0:22:210:22:24

I'm going to just let him sweat it out a bit longer.

0:22:240:22:27

We'll have a nice cup of tea before I make the peace.

0:22:270:22:30

Well...

0:22:300:22:31

-I think you are doing the right thing.

-Thank you.

0:22:310:22:34

I am very proud of you, Sister Hanif.

0:22:340:22:37

It feels good, you know? Being the bigger person.

0:22:370:22:40

Let bygones be bygones. Take the higher ground...

0:22:400:22:43

What the...

0:22:430:22:44

This isn't what it looks like.

0:22:460:22:48

Something's wrong. It shouldn't be taking this long.

0:22:510:22:53

Maybe he's being cautious. After all, he doesn't want to get caught.

0:22:530:22:57

All right, don't rub it in.

0:22:570:22:59

Oh! Thank goodness.

0:23:000:23:02

We thought, um...

0:23:020:23:04

You got caught, didn't you?

0:23:040:23:06

Sister Hanif requests the pleasure of your company on the patio.

0:23:060:23:10

Requests?

0:23:100:23:11

More like demands.

0:23:110:23:13

OK. It's the moment of truth, Heston. Third time's a charm.

0:23:130:23:17

We're all counting on you, OK?

0:23:170:23:19

OK.

0:23:210:23:22

I'm confused.

0:23:290:23:30

So am I.

0:23:320:23:33

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you or not listen to you...

0:23:350:23:40

..or anything.

0:23:410:23:43

I know. I'm sorry too.

0:23:430:23:46

I have to get better at this...arguing.

0:23:470:23:50

We both do. It's not just you who finds it hard.

0:23:500:23:54

Just because I disagree with you,

0:23:540:23:55

it doesn't mean that I don't love you or respect you.

0:23:550:23:59

Snap.

0:23:590:24:00

I promise I will try and get better at it.

0:24:020:24:05

That's not good enough.

0:24:060:24:09

What do you mean?

0:24:090:24:10

You can't promise to try.

0:24:100:24:12

You might as well promise to fail.

0:24:120:24:14

All right, I promise I will get better at it.

0:24:140:24:18

So do I.

0:24:180:24:19

I didn't know you kept a picture of me in your wallet.

0:24:220:24:25

Always useful for putting on a bacon sandwich.

0:24:250:24:27

Aren't we missing something?

0:24:310:24:34

I don't know. Are we?

0:24:340:24:35

Well, if this is us kissing and making up...

0:24:350:24:39

shouldn't we...?

0:24:390:24:40

KNOCK ON THE WINDOW

0:24:430:24:45

You know, I can't help feeling

0:24:460:24:49

we would have got through this much sooner...

0:24:490:24:52

..if we didn't have a little help from our friends?

0:24:520:24:55

I think you're right.

0:24:550:24:57

That is the nicest thing you have ever said to me.

0:24:580:25:01

What is?

0:25:010:25:02

That I'm right. Can I have it in writing?

0:25:020:25:05

All this trouble for a stupid book.

0:25:120:25:13

How do you know it's stupid? Have you read it?

0:25:130:25:15

-I don't need to...

-Oh, please. Please do not start this again.

0:25:150:25:18

Can't we all just agree to disagree?

0:25:180:25:21

Not when we're right and you're wrong. Which, by the way, is always.

0:25:210:25:23

That's the trouble. You tar us all with the same brush,

0:25:230:25:26

-just like the book.

-Well, there can be no argument

0:25:260:25:28

about who did the best impersonation of Ruhma.

0:25:280:25:30

Mine was absolutely inspired.

0:25:300:25:33

Yeah, by Monty Python.

0:25:330:25:34

Which is why I had to take over.

0:25:340:25:36

All right, Ronni Ancona, let's hear yours.

0:25:360:25:39

I've got to hear this!

0:25:390:25:40

No. No. We have to get back to work in a few minutes.

0:25:400:25:43

I want to put this whole lunch break behind us.

0:25:430:25:45

The whole thing has been a spectacular waste of my time and energy.

0:25:450:25:49

I wouldn't say that.

0:25:490:25:50

We found it very useful, didn't we?

0:25:500:25:52

-Invaluable.

-That's because you had the best coach.

0:25:520:25:55

No, let's put that to bed right now.

0:25:550:25:57

Ruhma had the best coach and I did the best impersonation hands down.

0:25:570:26:00

I never cease to be amazed by the scale of your sheer conceit.

0:26:000:26:03

The scale of my sheer conceit? Are you kidding me?

0:26:030:26:06

Are you kidding me, Dr Vain?

0:26:060:26:07

Are we seriously doing this again?

0:26:070:26:09

I wouldn't get involved.

0:26:090:26:11

Oh, what's up Sid? Have you finally developed a backbone?

0:26:110:26:14

Who rattled your cage? What have I said?

0:26:140:26:16

I could try making another reservation but

0:26:160:26:18

I think it'll be quite some time.

0:26:180:26:19

I can't wait. I hear they do a spectacular Eggs Benedict.

0:26:190:26:23

-Oh, is that wise?

-Well, it might help another couple.

0:26:250:26:28

You know, I think you might be right.

0:26:290:26:31

I know that I am.

0:26:310:26:33

-ZARA:

-Just you say that again, Daniel Granger!

0:26:330:26:35

-DANIEL:

-I will if you stop shrieking at me!

0:26:350:26:37

-Oh, undercutting me with a whisper?

-(Let's go.)

0:26:370:26:39

Just you say that again, Daniel!

0:26:390:26:41

So you condone what he's done?

0:26:530:26:55

No, not the act. No, I don't.

0:26:550:26:57

But you think it's fine

0:26:570:26:58

for him to go on working with and teaching women?

0:26:580:27:01

I can't help wondering, though, what the baby would have been like.

0:27:010:27:06

What it would have been like, maybe bringing them here.

0:27:060:27:09

And what is so wrong with Christian virtues?

0:27:090:27:12

You think it's an exclusively Christian thing?

0:27:120:27:14

No, I do not!
