Hey, pardon me for asking, but who's the little old man?
Paul Uh, what little old man?
Paul Oh, that one, that's my grandfather.
Paul Yes.
That's not your grandfather.
Paul It is, you know.
But I've seen your grandfather. He lives in your house.
Paul Oh, that's my other grandfather, but he's my grandfather as well.
How do you reckon that one out?
Paul Well, everyone's entitled to two, aren't they, and he's my other one.
We know that. But what's he doing here?
Paul Well, my mother thought the trip would do him good.
Paul He's nursing a broken heart.
[cheerfully]
'Ello, grandfather!
PS Paul's Grandfather
Hello.
He can talk, then, can he?
Paul Of course, he can talk. He's a human being, isn't he?
Well if he's your grandfather, who knows? [chuckles awkwardly]
And we're looking after him, are we?
PS Paul's Grandfather
I'll look after meself.
Paul Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of.
He's got you worried, then?
Paul Him? He's a villain. A real mixer. And he'll cost you a fortune in Breach of Promise cases.
Paul No, straight up.
M Man
And don't take that tone with me, young man. I fought the war for your sort.
I bet you're sorry you won.
M Man
I shall call the guard.
Paul Ah, but what? They don't take kindly to insults you know. Come on, let's go have some coffee and leave the kennel to Lassie.
Yeah, you're a window rattler, son.
That's just your opinion. Do I snore, Paul?
Paul With a trombone hooter like yours, it would be unnatural if you didn't.
Grandfather Now, Paulie... don't mock the afflicted.
Paul Ah, come off it, it's only a joke.
Grandfather Aye, it may be a joke to you, but it's his nose. He can't help having a hideous great hooter. And the poor little head, trembling under the weight of it.
Do you often see your father?
Paul No, actually, we're just good friends.
Paul [Ringo has gone missing.]
Split up and look for him.
[Paul goes one way, John and George follow him. Paul turns around, sees them right behind him.]
We've become a limited company.
