[English]
Oh, sorry... Aah!
What the hell are you doing?!
You were running! You looked frightened!
I wanted to check if you were OK. Is that how you check
if people are OK?!
Is everything all right here? No, mate, no, it's not.
I was talking to the lady.
I'm just having a massively shit day, so I just...
I just want to go. Whoa, whoa!
You can't just hit someone and walk away. Calm down, mate, all right?
It's OK. I know her.
What?
Yeah, I walk past you on the way to work.
I think you're mistaking me for someone else.
No, I see you right here.
I just have one of those faces.
In this tunnel every day, I swear.
Yeah, well, lots of people look like me.
I mean, you always smile at me.
Do you know this man?
No!
Please don't make me look crazy.
It's OK.
It's OK, it's...
I'm just going to...
..go.
PHONE RINGS
Don't even ask.
Why? What happened?
Did you give Tunnel Boy the cake?
I...
punched him in the face.
SHE LAUGHS
