Episode 3

This is set two days after the last episode.

LEECH IS ON THE PHONE.

LEECH: Yes Maud, and then he said "have a nice weekend" and smiled, such cruelty! I spent all yesterday worrying that that daughter of his, Caroline Yates, was going to ring me and call me every name under the sun!

MAUD'S VOICE: Did she ring?

LEECH: No, but I know what she's thinking about me.

MAUD'S VOICE: Why don't you go round there and explain everything?

LEECH: I don't know the address!!

MAUD'S VOICE: I am sure my friend Pam knows.

LEECH: Really?

LATER ON - PAM, MAUD, AND LEECH ARE IN LEECH'S CAR DRIVING DOWN THE STREET.

PAM: Just down the lane, right....left.....right....straight on....here we are....

LEECH: Very good Pam, how did you know?

PAM: I was a post woman for 20 years, I know who lives in every house in the area! I must be going now.

LEECH: Bye Pam.

PAM LEAVES.

LEECH: Ooh, I am scared.

MAUD: Why?

LEECH: Well look at the house, it's very posh and huge, it's almost a mansion, I'll feel very inferior talking to her and trying to explain...

MAUD: There's no need to feel inferior, she was brought up by that scumbag Mr. Hall, so it's obvious that it's her husband, Mr. Yates, who's the posh one, Caroline will be just as common as the rest of us.

LEECH: OK, I hope everything goes alright, fingers crossed.

THEY GET OUT THE CAR, KNOCK AT THE LARGE DOOR AND THE BUTLER ANSWERS.

BUTLER: Hello?

LEECH: Mr. Yates, I suppose.

BUTLER: No, I am the butler, ma'am.

LEECH: Ooh.....er....er...goodness...

MAUD: We would like to see Mrs. Yates please.

BUTLER: Walk this way, please

BUTLER LEADS THEM INTO THE PORCH.

BUTLER: Wait here, please

BUTLER WALKS OFF.

LEECH: Look at it all, the tables, the chairs, the jewels, and this is just the porch!

MAUD: Gail! Stop worrying, there's nothing to worry about!

LEECH: I hope you're right.

CLEANER APPEARS.

CLEANER: Can I help you at all?

LEECH: Mrs. Yates, I suppose.

CLEANER: No, I am the cleaner (looks over her shoulder) but Mrs. Yates is coming right now.

CAROLINE APPEARS.

CAROLINE: Who are you? I was told you were expecting me, halfway through dinner if you please!

LEECH: Sorry about that. I am Mrs. Gail Leech and this is my friend Mau...

CAROLINE: WELL WELL WELL, if it isn't the Famous Mrs. Leech, if you're looking for Walter he's not here, he's living at his brother's house, I kicked him out yesterday. Are you satisfied now?

LEECH: No No No, you've got it all wrong. Your husband is not having an affair with me...

CAROLINE: So you said on the phone, but he was in love with you before, well now we're separated you can take advantage of his love.

LEECH: I've never met your husband before in my life, there's a 35 year age difference between us!

CAROLINE: Oh, but the phone call...

LEECH: I thought I was talking to your mother, and before you ask, I am not having an affair with your father, I was trying to get him into trouble because he was being rude and horrible to me when I tried to apologize for yelling at him when I found out he was married because that was not the impression I had got the night before when we were having dinner - to celebrate the fact he was giving me £500 to fix my crippled leg - because he was drunk on wine and spoke to me in a sexy James Bond voice......

CAROLINE: OK OK, slow down, mistake or no mistake, you've more or less torn me and Walter apart, he's not going to want to come back to me now unless someone apologizes....

LEECH: Well, I wish you the best of luck, goodbye.... (turns to leave)

CAROLINE: Where do you think you are going? I think the person who caused the entire disaster should be the one who apologizes...

LEECH: You mean I've got to go round to Walter's brother's house and apologize to him?

CAROLINE: Yes, and you better make a good job of it, because if you don't convince Walter to come back to me then I'll tell my father not to give you the £500 you need to get your leg fixed!

LEECH: OH NO!!!
