  • C: It started after Bushra's party, back in June.

  • We went back to the Unit. We argued... Z: Do you really think that I want to hear about your sick obsession?

  • C: It's true, Zainab. We were a couple. We were together until just before Christmas.

  • Z: What, so all this time, while he was planning on marrying Amira? C: He wanted to tell her! He was going to call it off.

  • Z: Yeah but he didn't, did he, Christian? Because it never happened, none of it.

  • C: Do you know what, you believe what you want to believe.

  • Z: Yeah, well, I believe you probably did try and seduce him. It would be typical of people like you. C: People like me?

  • Z: Yes. Promiscuous. Predatory. Thinking that you can just thrust yourselves on all and sundry.

  • What was it? Never had a Pakistani before? C: Don't be so ridiculous.

  • Z: No, you see a closed door, you give it a push, and when it slams shut in your face, you concoct this miserable fiction.

  • C: He kissed me first. Z: Oh, you are sick, Christian. C: And we fell in love.

  • Z: You don't know the meaning of the word. C: He's gay, Zainab. Syed. Is. Gay!

  • Z: You, you're a liar! You liar! I don't believe a word you say, Christian!

  • C: If you don't believe me,

  • you talk to him.

  • Z: You come near me, or my family again, and I will tear you to pieces!

  • D: Where have you been? Hold on, it's not the baby, is it? Z: No, no: of course not.

  • D: Alright, you okay? Z: Never better.

  • L: Alright. Z: Thank you.

  • Q: Don't worry, we will wait for you mother. I've been to shaadi's that are four hours late.

  • T: Um, can I just say... that you look... absolutely beautiful.

  • A: You're such a cutie.

  • C: I need a cab. I'll be waiting opposite the Minute Mart on Bridge Street. Walford to Heathrow. Fine.

  • S: What is it, Christian? C: Your mother came 'round. She went crazy, attacked me.

  • I've told her everything. I am so sorry, Sy.

  • C: Change of plan. Take me there.

  • Z: You want to come in? You pay.

  • Background: Fiver! Twenty quid!

  • A: More.

  • Background: More! Yes! No. More! Better, much better.

  • A&Z: More!

  • S: I'm cleaned out.

  • Background: Congratulations, congratulations.

  • S: Mum, can we talk, please. Z: Just smile.

  • M: Oh, hello.

  • Z: Is it true?

  • S: Is what true? Z: Don't toy with me, Syed. I saw your face when I got out of the car. He must have rung you.

  • S: Who?

  • Z: Christian.

  • S: Well I don't know what he's told you.

  • Z: So what did he just phone you for a quick chat, then? 'How you doing, Syed, hm? On the way to your wedding.

  • Oh, by the way, I just told your mother that you were a h-

  • a homosexual.'

  • S: He shouldn't have said that.

  • Z: Because he's lying? Or because he's breaking a confidence?

  • Is he lying?! S: Yes!

  • Z: So you and he... he made it all up?

  • Syed!

  • S: Not all. I have been... tempted.

  • Z: Life, is always throwing up temptations.

  • What sets us above is that we resist them.

  • I knew he was lying. I knew it. And for him to torture me with this deceit on this day of all days?

  • Oh, I tell you, you wait until I get ahold of him, I am going to ring his neck! S: Mum, I...

  • Z: Do you know, that he actually fabricated an entire relationship?

  • That he just.. he, he... made up this sick, imaginary affair in his twisted, perverted, mind of his.

  • And this wasn't just some top-shelf fantasy, oh no, he used the word 'love', Syed.

  • He actually believes that he loves you. How sick is this man? S: Don't talk about him like that!

  • Z: Syed...

  • S: I'm gay, mum.

  • I'm gay and I love him.

  • T: Contact lenses? A: Zulekha would like them.

  • T: Really?

  • Yeah, look, um, it's good of you to pimp your best mate, or whatever, but she is way out of my league.

  • And even if she wasn't, I'd probably muck it up. Mainly because I've never kissed a girl before, but, well, no probably...

  • A: I'll do you a deal. You put those contacts in and I'll give you a lesson.

  • B: A mixed-sex nikah? And the walima on the same day? You're being very daring, Masood.

  • M: Yeah well danger is my middle name. S: What's wrong with having them both on the same day, anyway?

  • B: Well, traditionally the marriage is consummated between the two ceremonies. A: And how do you know it won't be?

C: It started after Bushra's party, back in June.
