Why would anyone want to steal your shoes?
:46:04
I could see I had to tell the truth.
:46:06
The problem was,
the truth would lead to a lot more questions.

:46:09
They were nice ones.
:46:11
They were just ordinary brown lace-ups.
:46:13
No, they weren't. They were cool new trainers.
:46:16
Where did you get cool new trainers?
:46:18
She had loads more questions.
:46:20
Will bought them for me.
:46:23
Will?
:46:26
-The guy who took us to lunch?
-Yeah.

:46:28
He's sort of become my friend.
:46:31
He's sort of become your friend?
:46:33
She kept repeating
the last thing I said.

:46:35
Except she shouted it.
:46:37
I go round to his place after school.
:46:39
You go round to his place after school!
:46:42
-You see, he doesn't really have a kid.
-He doesn't really have a kid?

:46:46
Can I play computer games now?
:46:48
Where does he live?
:46:49
He's not there at the moment.
He's out to dinner.

:46:54
Christine had asked me to dinner
for a pep talk.

:46:57
You will end up childless and alone.
:47:00
Both fingers crossed, yeah.
:47:04
You must have a lot of courage.
:47:05
Why is that, Christine?
:47:08
Most people need something in their lives
to keep them afloat...

:47:11
...and you have absolutely nothing.
:47:15
Doesn't that scare you?
:47:17
Do you know what you want?
:47:21
Yes, I do. I'll have the steak...
:47:22
What the hell are these little
after-school tea parties about?

:47:26
Hi. Sorry? What did you say?
:47:28
I was just wondering why a single,
childless man would want to hang out...

:47:32
...with a 12-year-old boy every day?
:47:35
You didn't tell your mum
that you've been coming round?

:47:38
-I think I forgot.
-Tell me what?

:47:41
What are you doing with my son?
:47:43
Wait a minute. What are you suggesting here?
:47:45
-I'm not suggesting anything.
-I think you are.

:47:47
You were suggesting that
I've been interfering with your son.

:47:51
I'm simply asking you
why you entertain 12-year-olds in your flat.

:47:55
-My God!
-Oh, my God!

:47:58
What do you have to say for yourself?
