ALISHA: What the *** is going on?
Since when did you run around jumping off buildings?
Ever since I travelled back from the future.
ALISHA: So what happens now?
SIMON: You fall in love with me.
You can't die, I love you.
I'll still be here.
-Where did you get that? -The guy in the mask.
-Who is he? -It's you.
All that matters is us, here, now.
(GRUNTS)
MAN: Give me your phone.
Come on, come on. I ain't got all *** day!
Come on. Give it over.
I'll *** hurt you, man.
Who the *** are you?
Let him go.
Stay there.
What's with the mask?
Look at this ***.
You look like a ***.
(GRUNTS)
(GROANS)
Let's have a look at you.
(GROANS)
You're a superhero.
I know you can't tell me who you are
but that's why you have a secret identity, right?
Look, it's a bit cheesy but,
well, can I get a photograph of us together?
Oh.
Oh, ***. It's broken.
(SIGHS)
Oh, ***!
Simon? Simon!
What happened?
Someone stamped on my hand.
(ECHOES BY THE RAPTURE PLAYING)
I did it.
I actually saved someone.
I didn't think I could do it.
Yeah, but you could've been seriously hurt.
If I don't take risks, I'll never learn.
I'll never become him.
Why are you so obsessed with becoming him?
I have to save you.
You don't have to do anything. You already saved me.
I'll always save you.
It's like you're excited about it.
Look, if you become him, you're going to leave me.
You're going to travel back in time and you're going to die.
And if I don't become him and travel back in time, you're going to die.
I can't die in the past if I'm alive in the present.
I don't know anything about this
Terminator time-travel ***, but even I know that.
(SIGHS)
You're going to stay here with me.
Because you can dress it up any way you like,
but if you travel back in time, you're dumping me.
And I don't get dumped. So it's not going to happen, okay?
I didn't... I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm sorry.
How does it feel?
It hurts.
Good.
What's going on?
Probation worker told us to put them out. Some ***.
I think we're playing musical chairs, man.
Yeah, that seems likely. The probation worker's big on party games.
Ah, maybe he's changed.
Right, you sacks of ***. Here they are.
-Who are they? -Another bunch of ***-ups.
Right, everyone grab a seat.
The sooner we start, the sooner we can all *** off.
What is this?
Uh, it's called Preventative Intervention.
Sounds ***, doesn't it?
Oh! Jesus!
Okay. They're going to tell you how they *** up.
And you're going to tell them how not to *** up again
so they don't end up as big a ***-ups as you.
Do you think you can manage that?
Who's he calling a ***-up there?
Right. Who's first?
You. You're up.
Well, go on.
-My name's... -SHAUN: No one cares.
Just get on with it.
(LAUGHS)
PETER: There's this girl I like.
She was in a club, I...
I pretended to steal her handbag.
Why would you pretend to steal her handbag?
So I could give it back to her.
'Cause girls love it when you steal their bags, yeah?
Do you want me to read it from the file?
'Cause it's all in here.
(SIGHS)
I thought if I stole it and said that I caught the guy that took it...
(YAWNING)
Sorry, mate, go on. I thought you'd finished. I thought you'd finished.
You were saying summat about a chicken. Or summat?
No?
Why would I be daydreaming about a chicken?
Go on.
I'm dying to hear how this thrilling story ends.
(SIGHS)
I thought if I got her her bag back...
I thought...
Well, I thought I'd be a hero.
Jesus Christ.
All right, yes. Whatever.
Any pearls of wisdom for him, help him out?
Uh, don't go around stealing other people's handbags.
Brilliant.
Right. You're done.
Okay, Tubs. You're next.
It won't be like this forever.
You'll meet a girl who likes you.
You won't have to steal her bag.
You're the guy in the mask.
I don't know what you're talking about.
It's you. I recognise your voice, the cut on your hand.
You can't tell anyone.
No one can know.
I won't. I won't tell anyone.
How did you become a superhero?
I want to know everything.
We should go for a beer.
That isn't a good idea.
I think its best you just forget you ever met me.
RUDY: (LAUGHING) Whoa, hey!
(LAUGHS) Brilliant.
Glad you and your boyfriend have finished.
I hope you've washed your hands and your genitals.
-I'm not gay. -Mmm.
So you were showing each other your *** because...
We were just looking...
At each other's ***.
It's a perfect...
Oh! It's a perfectly natural,
everyday part of being a gay man.
It's like window shopping.
Window shopping.
We didn't have sex. I'm not gay.
I didn't say anything.
What's this?
I don't know. What is that? What is it?
It's ***.
Is it?
(LAUGHS)
-Hi. -Hi.
I bought my first Superman comic when I was five.
And after that, I was hooked.
My life was so boring and normal.
Suddenly, there were all these incredible people
with these amazing powers doing incredible things.
I used to spend hours making up stories, doing the artwork.
I've always been obsessed with superheroes.
And now I've actually met one.
I'm not sure I'm really a superhero.
You wear a costume and you jump off buildings.
And you save people from muggers.
Trust me. That makes you a superhero.
Most people would think I was a freak.
Those people are idiots.
They don't understand what it means to be prepared to risk your life,
to be prepared to die for what you believe in.
Would you like to be my best friend?
Great.
What's up with him?
Hmm.
He thinks he's got cancer.
(SCOFFS) Wait, if he has cancer, won't you have cancer?
No. Because he doesn't have cancer.
Honestly, there's something new every week.
He's like the boy who cried tumour.
I have a lump. Feel it.
I don't... I don't really want to finger-*** your armpit.
I think I'm going to pass on that.
No, don't...
-You stop... -Feel it!
(ARGUING CONTINUES)
SHAUN: Oh!
Who the *** is this?
It's me auntie. Who do you think it is?
What, you've got a twin brother?
Well, nowt's getting past you, is it, today?
Check out the big brains on probation worker here.
Why is he wearing a jumpsuit?
Because sometimes I do my Community Service, sometimes he does it.
We like to mix things up and...
-It keeps it interesting. -Mmm-hmm.
This isn't a job share.
Whoever does the crime does the boring, mindless ***.
I have a question, right?
What if we're conjoined twins, yeah, with our heads, they're all mashed together
and we go out into town for a few beers.
Some bloke sees us, right, and he's like,
"Oi! You two-headed ***!"
And he flips out, goes mental
and batters the guy.
Who does the Community Service then?
Because they... They are conjoined
with like one massive head,
but with two personalities.
Well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
All right.
I'm going to pretend like I never saw this
because I really can't be arsed.
Just make sure one of you turns up.
Oh, man. That's insane.
The old conjoined twins mindfuck.
Works every time, doesn't it?
What are you doing?
I'm just talking to Peter.
-Why? -What do you mean?
Why were you talking to him?
He's my friend.
He's your friend?
I do have friends, you know.
Yeah, I know. I didn't mean it like that.
What are you doing later? I'm going to hang out with Peter.
Okay. Well, I was going to see some friends anyway, so...
You have a secret lair?
This is totally superhero.
How did you find this place?
I didn't find it.
It was my future self. He lived here.
You have a future self?
Tell me everything.
SIMON: He's chasing Alisha through the warehouse.
He catches her and he's pointing a gun at her.
I'm just waiting up on the roof.
I jump as he pulls the trigger.
I die saving her.
You die?
Well, if you know what's going to happen,
why don't you wear a bulletproof vest?
Because if the future me doesn't die,
she'll never fall in love with me as I was then, in the present.
And if she doesn't fall in love with me, I'll never become my future self.
And if I don't become him, I won't be able to save her
and she'll never fall in love with me.
It all has to happen exactly like it happened.
It's my destiny.
That is so *** cool.
What are you doing?
Why is that out?
I was just showing it to Peter.
Have you told him?
It was Peter I saved from the mugger.
He recognised me.
What, so you just tell him everything?
It's okay.
I won't tell anyone.
This has got nothing to do with you.
Can you just leave?
Go!
I think you should probably go.
-ALISHA: Why are you telling him all this stuff? -SIMON: He's my friend.
ALISHA: He's not your friend! You only just met him.
We have talked about this. I don't want to see that *** suit ever again!
(SIGHS)
Do you want any toast?
I have to face my destiny alone.
Okay. Is that before or after you have breakfast?
Being a superhero is a heavy burden.
So now you're calling yourself a superhero?
Right.
I have to terminate our relationship.
What?
Why are you talking like that?
I have to sacrifice our love for the greater good.
What the *** has got into you? Where's all this coming from?
Goodbye, Alisha.
Where are you going? You can't just walk away, Simon.
What the *** are you doing?
One day, you will come to see that I did it all for you.
Simon, wait!
Simon!
What did he say, exactly?
He was talking ***.
He said we can't be together.
Everything was fine.
It's like it's just come out of nowhere.
What's going on? You all right?
Her and Simon have split up.
What? I thought you two were well loved up?
-Yeah, so did I. -Oh. Oh.
-What? -(STUTTERS) I can't tell you.
-Tell me what? -(CLEARS THROAT)
The other day, I walked in on Simon,
shy "stealing handbag" kid there in the toilets...
Do you know what, I can't tell you!
-I can't. -What is it?
They were showing each other their ***.
That's ***.
No, I think I know what two blokes in a public toilet
look like showing each other their knobs.
All I'm saying is maybe your boyfriend is a proud, beautiful gay man
who likes to rub and touch other men's penises.
He's not gay. He's the best *** I ever had.
Oh, I'll just pretend I'm not here, yeah?
You know, I've got a lot more control since that was my first time.
I am in full control of me *** now.
All blokes say that.
Next thing you know, you've got come all over your face and in your hair.
That's a lovely image.
He's not gay.
I'm not saying you turned him, but maybe you did.
You're deflecting.
It's all right, take it out on your Uncle Rudy. Do it!
Jesus!
*** is your problem?
-She's deflecting. -RUDY: Jesus.
Did he tell you he split up with me?
I'm sure you're really happy about that.
You've got your little friend all to yourself now.
Being a superhero and having a girlfriend,
they don't mix. They never have.
Very few superheroes have successful relationships.
He's not a superhero. He's my boyfriend.
He was your boyfriend.
*** you, you little prick!
What's that?
Are you obsessed with him or something?
-What else have you got in there? -Get off!
What is this?
Have you done something to him?
What's going on?
The kid from yesterday. I think he's done something to Simon.
-Where's Alisha? -CURTIS: She said she'd meet us here.
You can buy us a drink if you want.
I could do that.
What do you want?
A pint of lager.
The expensive French stuff.
A pint of lager. The expensive French stuff.
And a gin and tonic, please.
(CHUCKLES) A gin and tonic?
I can't drink lager. It's too gassy.
Are you for real?
You sure you don't want one of those little pink umbrellas in it?
What's wrong with gin and tonic?
It's what my nan drinks.
Well, look, maybe me and your nan should go out sometime.
Cheers.
The last bloke she was seeing fell over and broke his hip.
She's on the market.
What about you?
I'm not seeing anyone.
How about you?
I'll tell my nan you're available.
You do that.
-What's going on? -The usual ***.
I don't know what I did with my life before all these powers came along.
You probably hung out in bars drinking expensive French lager,
talking to good-looking guys.
-Something like that. -ALISHA: Kelly.
Ah!
Thanks for the drink.
Any time.
You made Simon break up with me, didn't you?
I had to. You don't understand.
It all has to happen.
We ain't debating it with you. It's over.
Yeah, so you either play ball or you play hardball.
What does that even mean?
You know, hardball. It's like a threat, innit?
-I'm threatening him with physical... -(PETER YELLS)
Look, I don't want to hurt you but I *** will.
It all has to happen like this.
Where the *** have you been the past few weeks?
-Who's... Who's he? -CURTIS: He's this guy.
He shows up sometimes and helps us out with ***.
Right. Well, it's nice to meet you, man.
I'm, uh, Rudy and I'm new so...
He doesn't say much, does he?
Now you're here,
you can help us kick the *** out of that little prick.
Kelly, don't. Just leave it, yeah?
What, you're protecting him now, yeah?
This is ***. Come here, man.
(GROANS SOFTLY)
What the *** just happened?
I thought he was supposed to be on our side?
I have never even met the guy.
(STAMMERING) I am new!
I don't know what, I don't know what's going on.
What's going on?
Anyone?
No?
When I see that *** in the mask, I'm going to beat the *** out of him.
Ah, the guy in the mask.
I think I know who he is. I know who he is.
Who is it?
It's the probation worker.
The probation worker?
Yeah, because that would be *** ridiculous, wouldn't it, eh?
Because he wouldn't *** on us if we were on fire
and if he was really desperate for a ***.
Well, it's definitely not him, is it?
Do you want to stay over at mine?
Maybe we should all stay over.
*** off.
Another time, maybe.
I'll have to pick that up later.
Pick it up, then.
-Seriously? -Use a bin.
Sorry.
Sorry that I had to leave the other night.
Maybe we could do it again some other time?
Um...
I'm kinda busy.
(SCOFFS) What, you're busy all the time?
Look, I can't see you like that.
What is it with you?
Yesterday you were buying me drinks,
talking flirty *** about my nan.
And now you're too busy?
Look, I'm sorry.
Has this got something to do with the dead girl at the cemetery?
How do you know about that?
I saw you leave flowers on her grave.
And yeah, I followed you 'cause I fancy you.
So let's just stop all the ***.
Who is she?
She's my girlfriend.
Uh...
She was my girlfriend.
What happened?
She died.
Drugs overdose.
Before the storm,
I was a regular dealer.
I gave her the gear.
I could have stopped her. She *** OD'd and it's my fault.
I'm sorry, yeah?
Look, she's dead. There isn't anything you can do about it.
I still love her.
I'm sorry.
I never meant to mess you about.
I don't think he's showing up.
This reminds me of when I met this girl, right?
And we go back to her flat and we spent the most amazing night together.
I was head over heels.
I loved her more than I ever thought
it was possible to love another human being.
All right? Anyway, in the morning I had to go court
and she makes me promise that I come back.
So when I were done, I rushed all the way back
to her flat and she's not there.
I wait and I wait. But she never comes.
Right? I went back to that flat
every single day for a month, sometimes twice, even three times a day.
But she was gone, so...
Did you ever find out what happened to her?
Oh, no, nothing happened to her, man.
It turned out I had been going to the wrong flat.
That is *** heartbreaking, though, innit?
Come on love, it's all right.
-Oh, *** off! -All right. Fair enough.
Look but don't touch. I hear you, sweetheart.
ALISHA: I'm going to see where he is.
SIMON: I like the sequence when his arm gets ripped off.
(GASPS)
He's with the weird kid, looking at comics in our flat.
Yeah, very romantic.
Oh no, we've moved on from all them cheap innuendos about his sexuality.
Go on, carry on, I'm listening. Now, what is the plan?
(ALARM BEEPING)
-Oh, ***. -Bup-bup-bup, it's all right.
(BEEPING CONTINUES)
I can handle this.
I've got a B-Tech in Computer Science.
-(ALARM BLARING) -What are you doing?
I'm trying to turn off the alarm.
Oh that's a shame, that's a shame, it's broken.
Is that what they taught you on your B-Tech in Computer Science?
I never said I passed it.
KELLY: Get out of the way.
(ALARM STOPS)
You're a *** rocket scientist.
Yes, I *** am.
This guy really needs to get out more.
RUDY: Mmm-hmm.
Try some internet dating or a salsa class.
(CHUCKLES) We're...
We're not here to sort out his social life, are we?
ALISHA: I told you.
Whatever he draws, it actually happens.
Rip them up. Maybe that will stop it.
You okay?
I'm fine.
I'll see you later.
(SHOUTING)
(BREATHING DEEPLY)
Alisha.
(LIFT DOOR OPENS)
I split up with you.
Why would I do that? What was I thinking?
Look at you.
I want you back.
Let's get back together.
Can we do that?
Don't say no. Please don't say no.
It was Peter's drawings.
Whatever he drew, it came true.
He made you break up with me.
I hurt you.
It wasn't your fault.
I'm so sorry.
I know what you did.
I was just trying to help you.
How can you say that?
You manipulated me.
Alisha doesn't want you to be who you need to become.
She doesn't understand.
I did it for both of you.
You made me split up with her.
I had to do it.
You told me...
You told me if you don't go back in time,
she'll never fall in love with you.
And if she doesn't fall in love with you...
Well, you won't do what you have to do.
You know it better than I do.
Maybe I was wrong.
I thought I had to become him to protect Alisha.
And all I did was hurt her.
I know you can do it.
You can save her.
You're a superhero. It's your destiny.
I'm not a superhero.
They're a fantasy.
It's your fantasy.
Not mine.
I won't ever leave her.
So which one of you is it today?
I'm the good-looking one.
You're both equally ***-ugly as far as I can see.
Right.
I pity you, mate.
Your anger, your bitterness, your hatred
for all that is good and pure in the world.
Now, don't take this the wrong way or anything,
but I think you might have been
sexually abused as a small child. (CHUCKLES)
What?
(GRUNTS)
What's up with you?
Right, a word of advice.
Don't ever suggest
the probation worker was sexually abused as a small child.
He did not like that at all.
-Funny, that. -Oh!
Looks like those two made up.
Yeah, you know, in many ways that is a real shame
'cause I reckon I could've tapped that, off the rebound.
You know what I mean? Nowt better than a teary ***.
(MOCK CRYING)
(CHUCKLES)
Wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do that.
The thought never even crossed me mind.
No one is happier than me that we are all back to normal.
(RATTLING)
(BIRD WINGS FLAPPING)
(PANTING)
(ALISHA GASPS)
Alisha?
(PANTING)
Why are you doing this?
What do you want? Please, will you just let me go.
(MUFFLED SCREAMING)
(MUFFLED SCREAMING)
(BOTH GRUNTING)
(GRUNTING)
Are you okay?
-Did he hurt you? -I'm fine.
Why?
Why did you do it?
You did it.
You saved her.
A superhero has to be prepared
to die for what he believes in.
(SIGHS)
Alisha?
It's like watching you die all over again.
I don't want you to become him.
I want you to stay here with me.
You don't have to go back.
Promise me you won't go back.
Promise me.
I promise.
I don't want you to put that suit on ever again.
Burn it...
with him.
(THUNDER RUMBLING)
I did it.
(BARKS)
