7 scenes Fergus Fergus Fergus So who's he?
He's what she should run a mile away from.
Fergus Then why doesn't she?
Who knows the secrets of the human heart?
You gonna tell me what it is?
Jude
What is it?
Do you know her, Jimmy?
Jude
Jimmy, is it? Do you know me, Jimmy?
Fergus Dil, this is Jude.
Are you following me?
Jude
Yeah! Just checking. Is he being nice to you, Dil?
Ever so nice, aren't you, Jimmy?
Jude
That's good. I'm glad. Young love, as they say?
Absolutely. The younger the better. Doesn't come YOUR way much, I suppose.
Jude
Don't go looking for it, Dil.
Well, maybe you'll get lucky... someday.
Jude
Bit heavy on the powder, isn't she?
A girl has to have a bit of glamour.
Jude
Oh, absolutely. As long as she can keep it. Isn't that right, James?
What you thinking of, hon?
Fergus I'm thinking of your man.
Why?
Fergus I'm wondering why you keep his things.
I told you. I'm superstitious.
Fergus Did he ever tell you you were beautiful?
All the time. Even now.
Fergus What do you mean?
He looks after me. He's a gentleman, too.
You could always make it up to her. When a girl runs out like that, she generally wants to be followed.
Fergus She's not a girl, Col.
Whatever you say.
Fergus Do they know?
Know what, honey?
Fergus Know what I didn't know? And don't call me that.
Can't help it! A girl has her feelings.
Fergus Thing is, Dil, you're not a girl.
Details, baby, details.
Fergus So they do know?
Alright, they do.
Fergus Don't. I should've known, shouldn't I?
Probably.
Fergus Kind of wish I didn't.
You can always pretend.
Fergus That's true. Your soldier knew, didn't he?
Absolutely.
Ask to meet me again, Jimmy.
Fergus Do you think that's wise?
Nothing's wise.
Fergus I didn't mean to hit you.
I know that.
Fergus I kind of liked you as a girl.
Well that's a start.
Fergus So I'm sorry.
So make it up to me.
Fergus How?
Ask to meet me again.
Got you the multivitamins and the iron tablets, hon.
Fergus Don't call me that.
Sorry, love. Now, the white ones are magnesium supplement.
Fergus Stop it, Dil.
I've got to keep you healthy, Jimmy. I'm counting the days. Two thousand three hundred and thirty-four left.
Fergus Thirty-five.
I'm sorry, darling. I keep forgetting the leap year. What am I supposed to call you then, Jimmy?
Fergus Fergus.
Fergus. Fergus my love, light of my life.
Fergus : Please, Dil.
Can't help it. You're doing time for me. No greater love, as the man says. Wish you'd tell me why.
Fergus As the man said, it's in my nature.
