It's 6 o'clock and time for the weather with Rock Thrust!
With Rock Thrust.
NICK [Rock Thrust]
Oh, me. Oh, I’m ready.
ANNIE
The weather? Rock Thrust?
HECTOR
Nick!
NICK
Hi! I'm Rock Thrust. And here is the weather - big smile. And here is the weather. In the south, it will be hot. (Sun, sun.)
Oh, sorry. Hot. So put on your beach clothes.
And in the west, it'll be windy.
And in the east, it will rain, so don't forget your umbrella - ha! And there could be some...,
Oh, no, not lightning. Ha!
And that's the weather with me, Rock Thrust.
HECTOR
Ah, come in and sit down. Close your eyes. Now, are you ready for a taste of paradise?
Chocolate so smooth it will melt a beautiful lady's heart. Ready?
ANNIE
Hmmm!
"Chocolate mousse, the chocolate dessert for lovers". Oh, Hector, that was so much fun! I love doing adverts, especially with your delicious chocolate mousse.
HECTOR
Oh, I'm glad you like it.
BRIDGET
Well, hello! It's Rock Thrust. Would you like your messages, Mr Thrust? As your agent, I take 10 per cent.
ANNIE
Oh, poor Nick. You must be very tired now.
NICK
Yeah, I am.
ANNIE
Working in television must be exhausting.
NICK
Yes, because I had to run all the way from the studio.
HECTOR
Run?
Why?
NICK
Because I was chased.

Episode 6
Narrative
BRIDGET [reading horoscope]
Taurus: "Today you will have a change in career which will give you more money."
BRIDGET
More money!
Ohhh! It's my lucky day.
Now where was I?
99, 100. Good, that's done.
Now the cushions. In my special order: orange, pink, purple...
HECTOR
Hi, Bridget.
BRIDGET
Oh, hi Hector. Red.
HECTOR
Hi, Annie.
ANNIE
I'm just... Bridget, no!
It's OK, Bridget, you didn't see it. You didn't see it!
BRIDGET
What are you wearing? Take it off!
HECTOR
What?
BRIDGET
Your shirt, it's that colour. Take it off.
HECTOR
This shirt? What is wrong with the colour? What's wrong with yell...
ANNIE
Ahhh!
BRIDGET
Don't say it!
Don't say that colour. Just take it off and throw it out!
HECTOR
OK, OK.
BRIDGET
Done?
HECTOR
Done.
ANNIE
Bridget must not see anybody wearing that colour.
HECTOR
Why?
BRIDGET
Because that colour - urghhh! - is very unlucky for me and today is Lotto day!
HECTOR
Lotto day. What's...
BRIDGET
The Lottery.
I pick 5 numbers. My numbers are: 66, 11, 89, 18 and 69.
If my numbers are the same as the Lottery numbers on television, I win millions!
HECTOR
I've never heard of it.
ANNIE
Bridget gets very excited.
HECTOR
Oh.
BRIDGET
But I know how to keep calm.
ANNIE
Yoga.
So, there we are, Hector.
HECTOR
Great. I am going shopping. Do you need anything?
BRIDGET
Yes.
Could you get my dress from the dry cleaner's, please?
HECTOR
Dry cleaner's? OK.
BRIDGET
The blue ticket is on the board.
HECTOR
Oh. Got it. See you later, Bridget.
NICK
4-6-4-7. Hector!
HECTOR
Hi, Nick. I've just been to see Bridget.
NICK
Yes, I can see. Anyway, where are you going?
HECTOR
Oh, I am going shopping.
NICK
Ah, yeah. Wait, wait, wait.
Come in here. 7-9-4-6-4-6-4-7. 7-9-4-6-4-6-4-7.
Pen, pen, I need a... aha! pen. 7-9-4-6-4-6-4-7. Paper. Paper! 7-9-4-6-4-6-4-7. Hoo! Thanks, Hector.
HECTOR
What is it?
NICK
Aha! Today I met a girl called Emily. She is very beautiful - long blonde hair, big...
HECTOR
Yes?
NICK
...blue eyes, and she is crazy about me.
HECTOR
Where did you meet her?
NICK
She was in her sports car. [Imitates car revving noise]
At the traffic lights.
HECTOR
Oh!
NICK
I asked her for a lift. She said 2No”/ but she shouted her phone number – 7-9-6-4-6-4-7.
