A line from Emelia [to Jonathan]

You haven't lived a bloody day since, have you? I mean what else have you achieved in the last 20 years? I've read your other work, and it sure ain't Tolstoy. Unless it's the sequel: "Bore and Cease".

Emelia

Good morning, Mrs. Fisher. How's it hanging?

Emelia
[in college cafeteria]

I have never seen so many ugly men in all my life. I mean look at them, they're trying to wear their brains on the outside.

[caught masturbating]

You don't need to clean here.

Emelia

Are you sure? It's pretty dirty from where I'm standing. Filthy actually.

Beth

Do you need to call your mom to check?

Emelia

I would but, she's a bit dead.

Beth

Oh. Sorry.

Emelia

It's okay. Not very fair for you to take the blame. She did kill herself.

Clerk

Have you got any ID?

Emelia
[takes out her compact and looks at herself]

Yeah, definitely me.

Clerk

No. Are you 18?

Emelia

Yes.

Clerk

Can you prove it?

Emelia
[flashes him]

There. Are those not the breasts of an 18 year-old?

Clerk

That'll be 2 pound 99, please.

Emelia

So, tell me about the cliff house. I want to know everything.

Mm. There's not much to tell. I came over here to go to Cambridge. Saw a beautiful young actress in a touring play, and whisked her away to the cliff house. Just for the weekend. Really just ignorance at 22. Struck gold. And now it hangs around my neck, drawn to me with its excess.

Emelia

Yeah... I meant the house. Like the actual building. Is it Victorian?
[Joa laughs uncontrollably]

Female Customer

Uh, excuse me. I am a vegetarian.

Emelia

That isn't something to boast about.

Why are you being so cruel and childish?

Emelia

Because I am a child. I'm best friends with your daughter, in case you hadn't noticed.

Emelia, we don't need to do this.

Emelia

I can't do this to Beth any more. And I hate you for being able to.

Emelia
[her first book]

Hi. Um, can I get this printed and bound?

Copy Shop Attendant

Yeah, no problem. Just take a seat.
