Skins (2007–2013): Season 6, Episode 6 - Nick - full transcript

If your brother contacts you,
you come and see me

and I'll call the police for you.

I just spoke to Matty
and you're torturing him.

Look, you're his girlfriend.

I'm no-one's fucking girlfriend,
all right?

He's only got us now.

No, Nick, he's only got you.

You think the crash was my fault,
don't you?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Come on!

What the fuck are you doing?!



Saving your arse!

I don't need fucking saving!

Mates, then?

Cos I could really do with one.

What are you doing to me, Franky?

Well, though, that is the theory.
But, I digress.

Of course, I what I mean is,

why shouldn't two seemingly
disparate forms merge - clash?

Yeah?

Absolutely. Tell me more.

Old boundaries, they're like,
totally obsolete.

It's time to... cross-pollinate.
Do you get what I mean?

This is fascinating.

I can't wait for you to hear it.



Me neither.

So, er... Neil, are you four...?

Nick.

Course. Are you four couples?

Oh, God, no.

Um... No, I have a very... rare
condition. It's, um...

a sealed vagina.

She's, er... smooth.

Like... Ken.

It's sort of a membrane.

Ken?

I know.

It's tragic.

Jesus. So brave!

Well, I'd... I'd better go
and... tune up.

Right. They're out of booze,
and those are guitars.

Time to do one.

Give me two minutes.

There are some seriously fucked-up
people in this house.

Depressives, STDs,

sleeping pills,
hormone replacements,

some fucking heavy painkillers.

It's awesome.

That looks nasty.

It is. That's the point.

Right.
Let's take this baby for a spin.

I'd like to thank you all for
sharing this moment with us.

Oh, God, you're kidding.

This is Digital Appalachia.

* Tear down the walls and let it
Tear down the walls and let it *

* Tear down the walls and
let it *

* Tear down the walls and
let it

* Blend *

* Tear down the walls... *

* Tear down *

* Tear down the walls... *

Oh, my God, that is foul.

This music is a twat.

Cool, Neil!

Now can we go?!

Sorry. Gotta go.

Sorry, mate. You're crap.
Uber-crap.

Are you sure this is a good idea?

Don't be a twat, Franks.
You can't just steal.

One fucking minute.
It's not stealing, it's borrowing.

That is so fucking cool.

Nice one. Awesome!
Alex, we need to go. I'm freezing.

Give you a backy? My treat.

Ugh!

Fuck, you're heavier
than you look!

It's my massive balls.

Go on. It's not far now.

Hey!

It's my turn.

Let's do this. Hold tight.

Whoa!

Oh, fuck! Oh!

See you soon!

Fuck it, come on!

OK!

Hello? Franky?

Is that you in?

This place is awesome!

It's just my room.

Stick some music on, yeah?

Course.

Nick. Eyes front?

Yeah.

Fuck!

Shh!

Oh!

Have you still got that joint?

Mm!

It's a bit damp.

Oh, it'll live.

Nick...

What?

Franks...

Don't spoil it.

Why?

Because I can't, all right?

Is it about Luke, or...?

No! I just can't, so leave it.

Yeah, course.

Look, it's stopped raining, so...

Maybe you should...

Yeah. You're right.

Uhh...

Nick?

Nick, can you... Can you hear me?

Matty! Fuck!

You...

You look like shit!

Of course I fucking look like shit.

Look, the net's crap here,
so I need to be quick.

Mate, I'm coming home!

I'm coming back.

Nick! Did you hear me?!

Oh!

Can you concentrate, please?
This is important!

I am, I am, I just got...

Listen, it doesn't matter. All
right, I met some people, some guys,

and they're gonna get me home
this week.

How...?

They're getting me a passport,
flights, everything.

Wow.

And, and... it's legit?

What do you think?

Jesus, Nick, will you just go to
the guy and pay him?!

Pay him?!

Have you got any money?

Fuck. Dad's away on tour.

He left me some for the house.

That's a start, then.

"A start"?! How much is this
going...?

Look, I'll send you the address.

You need to go today, Nick.
Today. OK?

I've got college.

Well, miss a fucking class!

This is important!

Sorry.

I'll sort it.

Course.

And Franky! You need to tell her.

Tell her I'm coming home!

Tell her I...

I will.

Promise.

Oh, God!

Fuck.

Fuck.

I'm... here to see The Doctor.

Da li da ga posaljem gore?

The Doctor will see you now.

Top floor.

Hello?

Ah...

I'm Nick.

Sit, my friend.

Sit.

Your brother tells me
you are resourceful.

Smoke?

No, thanks, I've got my own.

Have one of mine.

Drink!

Strong cigarettes, Nico...

for strong men.
Are you a strong man, Nico?

I need you to be strong.

We are not playing here, my friend.

Of course.

I need 2,000. Cash.

And I need it tomorrow.

Two grand?! I...

I don't have that much. I've got...

700, maybe.

Put it away.

No. You get 2,000.

He gets passport and travel.

You want your brother back,
you get it.

He can be here in three days.
Three days.

Your choice, my friend.

Magnesium, right. Magnesium.

So, what do we know about magnesium?

No-one?

Fine, right, OK.

Inert through passivation.

It dissolves in seawater.

You might say it's a pussy...

Sorry, I got held up.

Fine, cool. Find your partner, sit.

Right, where was I?

You OK?

Fine, yeah.

Yes, magnesium.

Lacklustre.

Uninteresting.

Unremarkable. Or is it?

For one thing, it's the 11th most
common element in the human body.

It's forged in the explosive
death throes of supernova stars!

Can you imagine the power,
the pure fury of that?!

It makes you feel helpless.

And yet, look at it now...

Are you sure you're all right?

I said I'm good.

In a layer of grey oxidisation.

You'd never guess the fury
of its true soul,

until... you put it under pressure!
Put on your goggles!

Nick...

I'm fine! Fuck's sake!

Your goggles.

Er...

Yeah. Right.

Turn on your burners!

And... watch.

You see? Its true self

bursts forth with the force of

the dying stars that brought it
into creation!

Like...

fuckin' magic!

That, my friends, is inside
each and every one of you!

Waiting to be set free!

You just need the spark!

Aah! Fuck's sake!

Nick.

Nick!

What?

What's wrong with you?

I'm fine, all right?

No, because that's bullshit.

Look, I can tell something's
the matt...

You know what the matter is.

Look...

Right then, who's gonna get smashed?

What?

You know, the Caravan.

Two days, one club, one DJ.

Gonna be awesome.

Flangemeister's playing
for 48 hours straight!

It'll be, er... legendary.

Shall I just come back?

No. It's fine.

See you later.

So?

Huh?

Fuck it, let's get smashed.

Kapow, kapow!

Who's ready for the Meister?

OK, so the rules are...
Number one, no-one goes home.

In.
Agreed.

Number two, we match each other -
drink for drink,

line for line, toke for toke.

Done.

No drugs here.

You're gonna stay up for 48 hours
on booze alone?

I plan on some blow jobs.

Nice.

OK, fine. You opt out on drugs.
We opt out on blow jobs.

Can I have both?

Yeah, good luck with that!
Number three, you vom, piss, shit

or foul yourself in any way,
you lose.

Isn't that always a rule?

Shut up, Alex.

Whatever. More drinks, who's up?

I'm actually a bit short, mate.

Me too.

Maybe the drink for drink rule
might have to be reconsidered.

Fuck it.

I've got this.

Whoa!

Fuck me! Where did you get that?

Does it matter?
Or do you wanna get messed up?

Give you a hand?

Course.

Definitely.

So you're good?

Perfect.

And, um, you and Franky earlier,
that was...?

Nothing. Exactly right.

OK.

It didn't look like nothing.

Look, mate, can you not take a hint?

Yes. I just chose to ignore it.

Look, she's just head-fucking me
a bit. I'm dealing with it.

One bottle of champagne. ?35.

I don't get it.

I mean, it all seems so... fraught.

Keep the change.

The way I see it,
you shouldn't get hung up on people.

You just take them or leave 'em.

You know, have fun, say thanks,
move on.

Here, check this out.

All these blokes, in this club now,

right now,

and I could probably fuck...
any of 'em.

In fact, I'm gonna fuck him.

I just select "poke"

and... send.

Yeah, well, I don't have that app.

You don't need one. Come on.

Look.

There.

Her.

Fit.

Perfect.

Fuck it, you're right.

Wish me luck.

You won't need it, champ.
Take what's yours.

Bollocks.

Ich bin Flangemeister.
I will fuck you with my techno bass!

Oh, Jesus!

Ahh!

Morning, sleepyhead.

Morning.

What are you doing?

Watching you sleep.
I like it!

OK.

How long have you been... up?

Oh, I haven't slept.

I've been awake all night,
just thinking...

thinking, thinking.

About you, me, life.

What's it all about, eh?!

Right.

Shit. Um... Well...

I can't believe this is your house,
this is your room.

It's so... real.

So normal.

Is it?

Where do you...?

You know, boarding school, the farm,

boarding school, the farm.
Blah, blah, fucking blah!

Boarding school? Heavy.

Yep.

Kind of got suspended.

Kind of in the shit.

Sort of haven't told anyone yet.

Sort of ran away.

Hey, maybe I could just stay here!

I'm joking.

Yeah, funny!

What were you...

Suspended for?

God! Now, that's a story.

Whoa!

I need the toilet...

Course, he'll never understand,
not really.

Not with Delia around. Fucking Delia
and her fucking plastic tits

and her fucking stupid
little whore dog.

Sorry.

It's just all a bit... raw, you know?

Who's Delia?

Spend the day with me.

Mm...

Please.

I'd love to, but...

Oh, come on, Nick.
We can have so much fun.

We can do drugs, do acid in the zoo.

Fuck on the Downs.

Come on! We can do anything.
Anything you like.

One day. Please.

Well, I...

I'd better...

I'm fucking coming!

Hey.

Hi.

Can I come in?

What, now?

Er, yeah.

Why are you being weird?

I'm not. I'm just, um...

Nick?

Carly, Franky. Franky, Carly.

Hi.

What are you doing?

Nothing. Just...
you know, chatting.

Right, are you...? You're not...?

No.

No. God, no!

OK, so, um... I'm gonna...

Yeah, well, thanks for that.

I'll leave you to it.

I'm going.

You don't have to go. She's just...

Don't.

Look, Nick... I can tell you're into
that girl. I'm not stupid.

And she's into you.

Carly, wait.

Shit!

Nick? Nick, that you?

Yes, mate. How are you?

Did you do it?

How much do you know about this guy?
He seems messed up.

Course he's messed up.
This is a messed-up situation.
He's not fucking Expedia.

I know, I know, but...

I don't think I trust him.
He... he's pretty scary.

Don't you want me to come back?

Of course I do. I do!
But there's some people who.

Fuck's sake, Nick.
Why don't you just spit it out?

People. They think I killed Grace.

Fine, they hate me.
But I didn't kill Grace!

I know. I know.

Did you tell Franky?

Mate, she's dumped you, OK?

I know. But I'm not accepting that.

Understand?
I need her, Nick, all right?

You need to tell her that.

You know what? Fuck this.

Either you help me or you don't.
Do whatever the fuck you like.

Matty...

See you around, Nick.

'Please enter your customer number.'

'Thank you. Please wait.

'Good morning.
Can I have your name, please?'

Hi, I'm Leon Levan.

'Thank you. Just getting
your details now.

'Can I have your memorable word
or phrase, please, Mr Levan?

'Do you have it?'

Of course I have it.
It's my... password.

'Mr Levan?'

Siobhan. It's Siobhan.

1,940.

1,960.

1,980.

And that's ?2,000 exactly.

You've done well, my boy.

Amazing what can be achieved
if you want it enough, no?

Sure.

So, er... what now? Do I...?

Ah-ah-ah. All in good time, Nico.

Patience.

Nico, there have been some
complications.

Complications?

I'm afraid our costs have risen.
We need an extra 1,000.

That's all I've got, and you said...

I say many things,
but then these things change.

Like when I told my wife
I wouldn't fuck her sister.

But such is life.

No! This is bullshit! I...
I want my money back. It's off.

The money is already accounted for.

Accounted for? Fuck's that mean?

It means you should sit down.

Listen, mate, back off, yeah?
Ah, fuck!

The situation is what it is, Nico.

Now, you can get us
extra money, or...

you can say goodbye
to what you already paid.

And your brother.

Understood?

'Hey! Nickosaur!'

Ah, fuck... Where are you?

'Still here, mate. Still here.'

Still where?

'The club, mate. 48 hours.
You fucking cheated!

'Cheat, cheat, cheat!'

I was hoping I could talk
to you, mate.

'Always, mate.
Come down, everyone's here.

'Yeah, knock me one out.'

Yeah. But, mate...

'No, no, no. A big one.
Oi, Nick's coming down! Wa-he-hey!

'Can't hear you, mate.
Come down. See you!'

So we're not dancing, then?

Mr Nick! You made it, man.

I've been dancing for 18 hours.
I have blisters.

Yeah, my bum is so chafed.
It's painful.

Speak for yourselves.
We've just got here.

You can tell
because we don't smell like balls.

So! What's the big shit, mate?

Plop it out.

Said you... wanted to talk?

No, I didn't.

No, you did! You said... you said,
"I wanna talk to you"!

Oh, come on! We're all mates.
All right?

Share the wealth. Yeah?

A problem shared is a problem...

Se-seven...?

He obviously doesn't wanna
talk about it, you fucking Joey.

Are you all right, mate?

I'm in trouble.

What sort of trouble?

Some guys...
I owe some money to some guys.

What kind of guys?

Dodgy guys. Really fucking
dodgy guys. I don't... have it.

For Matty, for a... passport.

W-Why?

I paid two grand and I need another.
Otherwise.

Otherwise what?

Alo's right. Why? Why the fuck
would you want to do that?

That's not what I meant.

Cos he's my brother, Mini.

Your brother who killed Grace.

Fuck you! He did not kill Grace.
And how the fuck would you know?

Well, she's not fucking here,
is she?

Mini...

How about you give Rich a grand?
Hey, Nick?

Give him a grand and get
Gracie back? You like that, Rich?

Don't, Mini. Just don't.

Rich, he didn't kill her.

Nick, I don't care.

And this...
just leave me out of it, all right?

Look, maybe we all need
to calm down, yeah?

What about you, Franky?

Honestly?

Yeah.

He can go fuck himself.

Well, you know what?

Fuck it, then. Fuck all of you.

Nick. Nick!

What?!

I might be able to help.

Yeah? Why don't you just stop

trying to fucking help me,
all right?

Hey, dude, I was...

Back off, yeah, mate?

Ahh!

Nick. Let me in.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Getting high.
Fuck does it look like?

Hey! Fuck!

Why didn't you tell me?

I can't believe you fucking
did that!

Don't push me, Franky. I swear...

I said, why didn't you
fucking tell me?

Oh, you care now, do you?

I care about you, Nick.

No, you don't.
You don't give a fuck about anyone.

You're a head-fuck, Franky.

You haven't spoken to him
for months.

He's your fucking boyfriend!

Oh, is he fuck!
He's a selfish, messed-up pussy.

And you are letting him
fuck you again.

I have to.

And you always will.

Yeah. Yeah, I will.

Then what the fuck are you doing
here with me, Nick?

You know what? You're right.

Oh, that's right - just run away!

I wish I fucking could!

But I can't.

Cos you're in here. And here.

And part of me would give anything

for you to just disappear,
just be fucking...

gone.

But it's a tiny part.

The rest of me...

The rest of me would take even this,
even this shit feeling right now,

over any other feeling
about any other girl.

Because compared to this,
I haven't felt

a single fucking thing in my life.

Shut up.

I love you.

Franky. I do.

Yeah, and when he comes back?

It doesn't fucking matter.
Nothing does.

Cos you don't want me, do you?

No.

You're lying.

Fuck you!

Hey, what are you doing?!

I'm sorry I'm a cunt.

Hey! You can't...

Where's my fucking money?

I told you, Nico.

It's all been accounted for.

Family, Nico.

You protect them because you have to.

But it's a weakness.

Every good man has it.

Da li je sve uredu?

Everything's just fine, Savo.

In a moment,
Nico is going to walk out that door.

And we will never see
each other again.

Right, Nico?

You looking for these?

Can I come in?

Yeah, s'pose.

You all right?

Not really.

He's called me six times.

I want you to tell him to stop.

Why?

Because it's over, Nick.

It's all there.

Where d'you get it?

Sort of an inheritance.

It's for you, Nick. Not him.

Ohh! Keep it.

It was a fucking awful idea
and I knew it was.

And now I'm pretty fucking certain
they won't take it.

Shit.

What did you do?

Doesn't matter, Franks.

What do you want from me, Nick?

Franky...

you are the most beautiful person
I've ever seen.

So what now?

Maybe we just enjoy it.

Sounds good.

Sounds perfect.

Nick...?

Nick?

Franky?
