Excuse me. I hope you don't mind me saying,
but that blusher is actually wrong for you.
You need this one. Do you mind?
No.
It'll actually go much better with your skin tone.
See, it's a lot softer. It's nice.
It's like a nice natural flush.
Um, oh.
You should get this lipstick if you're going out for,
It's much more pigmented, dramatic.
You'll love it. It'll stay on
Actually matches the dress you've got on.
It does. Thank you.

She always laughed at my jokes.

Jamie and Harvey had a fight during phonics.
Okay.
A physical one.
Jamie,

Tell me.
No lies.
I kicked him.
Repeatedly.
He stole my pencil.
Well, you take Jamie's pencil?
Why are you asking my son?
Why not? You got something to hide?
- MUM: This is ridiculous. - Mr. Tilson, please.
TEACHER: Mr. Tilson, can I have a word, please?
Yeah.
Alright, don't move, yeah? Stick there.
Jamie has been exhibiting bullying behaviour.
Now, as you know, we have
I don't want to take it further, because
I understand things have been difficult for him at home.

If you're struggling, we have support systems.
No, I don't need no fucking support system.

You alright? Really?
So, you found a missus yet?
[Scoffs] No, no.
Oh, um...
I'm going to Margate next weekend.
A mate of mine's away, said I could use his flat.
You should come.
Poppy can't come, she's working.

It's cute.
Mm.
It's a bit too big for me.
ASHIQ: In what world?
Oh, fuck you, and fuck your energy drink.
Babe, seriously, you need to stop drinking that shit.

Look at the back. It has taurine in it.
It's the bile of a bull mixed with the blood of a pig.
- Blech. - You chat so much shit. Move.
This is cute. What are you talking about?
It didn't look like that on me.
Promise me you're gonna stop drinking that shit.
I don't want you to go to hell,
because you need to be up in heaven with me.

Keep your voice down.
Don't twist that story. You know I was depressed.

Mm, cute.
So, how was the basement gig?
This crazy thing happened.
I met this guy.
He was white, straight, from Essex.
He had these, like, mysterious green eyes
and these big arms.
We kissed.
Sounds hot.
He didn't know I was a queen.
Was he blind?

Googled Luke Tilson,
Tilson Mechanics, Essex.
Hi.
Sorry to show up like this, but it's kind of an emerge..
My friend who drives me to my shows,
well, he's pulled out last minute.
And like I said before, I don't drive,
I'm meant to be driven.
[Chuckles]
So, this is gonna sound crazy, but now I can't actually
which is a really big deal, 'cause this Asian millionaire
is throwing a one-off private mujra party.
It's just dancing. It's not sex work.
Well, we just... we just dance.
But now I can't get to this party tonight
because if I don't make my rent by Tuesday,
well then, I'll have to get kicked out of my flat,
and then I'll be evicted, and then...
Alright, alright, alright. Yes, well...
What's... what's this got to do with me?
I need a lift.
You want me to take you?
Yeah.
I'll pay the petrol.
[Huffs] Not a chance.
And I'll give you 200 quid.
Come on, it'll be fun.
It's only Birmingham.
Birmingham?
I have nowhere else to go.

Well, wait here.
She's a bit tasty, isn't she?
You kept that quiet. What does she want?
Eh?
Uh, a lift.
Tonight. To Birmingham.
She's... she's doing some show. She's a dancer.
Oh, good on you, boy.
You deserve it.
Go and get hold of it.
No. I don't know.
- I mean... - What?
- What about you and Jay? - What? You didn't say no,
Eh? Listen, if you don't drive her there
and give her a good banging, I'll do it myself.
[Chuckles]
[Gentle piano music]
I raised you, didn't I?
Eh?
Emma has moved on.
Alright.
[Music ends]
[Traffic hum]
So, tell me more about you.
Not much to tell.
What do you want to tell?
Nothing.
You're honest. I hate that.
Imagine if everyone in the world was honest
It would be messy.
But exciting. [Chuckles]
I like your style.
It's manly.
Manly really suits you.
Alright, just 'cause I'm driving you,
Okay.
I'm a top anyway.
So, now that we've got that out of the way,
let me tell you more about me.
When I was younger,
I used to think that White City
And that turkey ham was pork,
but it's actually just turkey pretending to be ham.
How tragic is that? So weird.
I can't be the only one that thought that.
You talk a lot, don't you?
Yeah, I do.
I mean, why not?
I've got a lot to say, you know.
And I like talking.
How old are you?
I'm 26.
No way.
We're the same age.
Uh, no, I'm 27.
Been a mad year.
[Sirens approach]
Can I ask?
Hmm.
Like...
What are you, like, a tranny?
No.
And it's best you don't use that word ever again.
Like ever.
Sorry.
I'm a drag queen.
But fuck labels.
My only pronouns are icon and legend.
Made you laugh.
When I was younger, I was super scared
that my family would find out about the real me.
So, I secretly went to my imam to be cured.
He said I had to marry a woman.
I said, "Well, can I marry your daughter?"
He said, "No."
I said, "Exactly."
No man in their right mind
would let their daughter marry a femboy like me.
What do your folks think about what you're doing now?
They're dead.
Sorry.
Sorry to hear that.
It's okay.
My mum...
She died.
I'm sorry, too.
Thanks.
It was...
It was mental health. That shit's fucked.
Yeah.
Yeah, it really is.
Thanks.

He's so handsome.
Is his mum still around?
Sorry.
Silly me.
It's alright.
No, she ain't.
[Gentle piano music begins]

AYSHA: Don't worry, it's all there.
- LUKE: Yeah, right. - [Aysha chuckles]
LUKE: Not long now, you'll be home soon.

Would you have had sex with me the night we met?
If I was a woman?
Yeah.
But you're not.
[Gentle music begins]
Thank you.
For everything.
It's cool.
Alright, bye.
Wait.
I could clear 1200 quid a week.
If you drove me regularly,
I could get to more venues faster.
I could do like four private parties a week.
You need money.
I need money.
I'll agree to a 70-30 split.
I already work like every day.
Exactly.
All my shows are at night.
We'll only do London and Essex.
They're best paid anyways.
I can't be away from Jamie.
I thought you were saving for Disneyland.
Fine.
But I'll only work after my boy's asleep
65-35.
No.
Alright, Del Boy, 60-40.
[Playful music begins; Aysha chuckles]
You know, you can make like 480 a week,
and you won't be needed for more than two hours,
so that's like 60 pound per hour.
Jesus, your maths ain't half bad.
Honey, I'm Asian.
[Chuckles]
Alright, I better go.
Okay.

Yeah. I'm dropping him off
But I had an idea first.
[Squeals]
Hi.
I'm Aysha.
What's your name?
[Aysha's jewellery jingles]
LUKE: Don't just sit there. Go on.
Tell her your name.
Jamie.
Nice to meet you.
Do you want to shake my hand?
LUKE: Well, go on.
AYSHA: Oh, um.
[Touches Jamie] It.
Hm.
It.
- It. - It
- [Jamie chuckles] - AYSHA: Missed me.
- It. - LUKE: It. Oh, I see.
Is it? It.
It.

Who's it now? I'm confused.
I don't know. You. It.

AYSHA: Yeah, he needs to sit down.
You having a good time, then?
Yeah. Thanks for asking me to come.
- Oh yeah, that's alright. - I came for this one.
- Oh, yeah. - Yeah.
LUKE: She's trying to steal you from me.
JAMIE: I want her to steal me.
- AYSHA: Oh! - LUKE: No, you don't.

Oh, save me, Jay!

Ashiq, beta.

- There you go. - Thanks.
Why didn't you say you were coming?
Baba and Hammad are at the mosque.
I wanted to surprise you.
Best masala chai in the world, you know.
Hmm.
You're trying to butter me up.
I'm not a bloody piece of toast.
[Both chuckle]
I'm still mad at you.
For three months, it's...
It's too long not to see your mum.
Sorry.
But I got you this.
[Shamim gasps]
I know.
Oh.
That is so beautiful.
Yeah, and look at all the gems.
- Oh. - My colour?
Yeah.
And this kajal eyeliner.
- Oh. - It's waterproof.
Thank you, darling.
Oh.
[South Asian dance music begins]
[Ashiq chuckles]
Quick.
Before those boring men come home.
Come on, you used to love this one.
Oh yeah, let's see your hands, Mum.
- Mm-hmm. - Oh, new moves.
[Laughs]
Come on, push your hip out. Come on.
- Booty. - [Both laugh]
[Music ends; Shamim hums]
ASHIQ: Stay close to the water line.
I am.
Don't worry, it won't sting your eyes.
You do it.
Fine.
Come here.
Look up.
No, but keep your head down.
- But just look up. - [Shamim laughs]
Oh my God, do you want me to do it or not?
Okay. Just stay there. Okay.
Yeah.
You seem different.
Happy.
[Chuckles]
Have you met someone?
You have, haven't you, you sneaky bugger?
Now tell me all about her.
Who is she?
I hope she's treating you like a prince.
There's nothing to tell.
I know when you're lying.
You know, you should wear eyeliner
- Mm-hmm. - It actually suits you.
- Mm. - Mm.
Changing the subject.

HAMMAD: We're back!
SHAMIM: Avi giya.

This is what the Jane Malik has, huh?
Zayn Malik?
Zayn, Jane. Same-same.
Still last century.
Dad.
Dad?
Sorry. Papa.
[Clock ticks]
Let's all eat together.
Oh, no, I can't.
I've got to get the train back to London.
I've got a shift tomorrow morning.
Aree, beta. It's good you're working
but bad that you won't stay for dinner.
- Chaal khaalay. - No, no, no.
Come.
Come, I'll make you a doggy bag.
Chaal.
Aa su che? Huh, huh.
Doggy bag.
LUKE: Tilson on the ball.
- Are you kidding? - I know, I know.
You have to pick it up.
I'm doing it.
Oh, come on, Jay. Kick it back.
Oh. What a stop.
Come on, come forward, that's it. Good lad.
Well, kick it back.
Mummy!
EMMA: Hi!
Oh, come here.
[Kisses]
EMMA: I've missed you so much.
Did you miss me?
- Yeah. - Yeah, I've missed you
JAMIE: Did you get me a present?
EMMA: Yes, I got you a present.
But we've got a lot to catch up on first, yeah?
Your hair's different.
Barely recognized you.
[Breathes heavily]
I'm done up north.
I've moved back down.
I'm staying with Becky.
Why didn't you say anything?
Well...
I just want to be closer to Jamie.
Oh. What shall we do?
JAMIE: Um, go and play.
EMMA: Yeah, go and play. Yeah.
JAMIE: Yeah, yeah.

[Roars]
Oh my God.
Oh God, you scared me.
Daddy, you scared Mummy.
Yes, he did.
LUKE: I didn't know Mummy was coming over, mate.
Where's Gary?
EMMA: He said he wanted to go shopping.
Shopping?
Yeah, he asked me to do bedtime.
He said you were working late.
Okay, right, my little chicken wing.
Two more minutes then we're getting you out.
He wouldn't let me go till he was asleep.
Who's that for?
I don't know. Dad left it.
That's sweet.
So what's this new night job that you're doing?
Just a bit of cash-in-hand on the side, driving gig.
Nice.
I've been thinking.
And I've... I've already spoke to Gary,
but I think we should just forget
I was just angry before.
I thought we could just come to an agreement.
You know, ourselves,
about when he's with me and when he's with you.
And...
As friends.
But he lives here?
Yeah, of course.
I don't have a flat yet, but one day when I...
When I get one, he could stay
[Sniffs]
I want to be a better mum.
And I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry to you and I'm so sorry to Jamie.
[She breathes heavily]
As soon as I got up north,
I realized I'd made the biggest mistake.
It was never about him anyway.
It was always about us.
You know that.
This has all just been a lot, hasn't it?
[Sighs]
[Luke pours a glassful]
Thank you.
[Sombre music]
So, what's Gary been saying?
What's he not been saying?
He said, "Life is like a penis,
and women make it hard for no reason."
Oh, fuck off.
[She laughs]
- He didn't say that? - Yeah, I swear on my life,
[Laughs]
Fuck's sake.
[Laughs]
[Both laugh]
[Sombre music ends]
And then she goes, "Who? Who killed her?"
And I said, "Oh, well, you know,
No one's sure,
but most people think it was the paparazzi."
Nanny jumps out of her chair,
runs into the other room shouting to her mate Doris,
"Doris! Doris! Princess Di
Doris goes, "No fucking way.
Who killed her?"
Nanny goes,
"It was Pavarotti, the fat bastard."
[She laughs, he chuckles]
- You don't find it funny? - No, it was good,
It was so funny.
Yeah, the opera singer.
She got a hearing aid as well?
No, yeah, she does.
But that's not the point.
You don't get it.
I do, I do, I do.
- Yeah, yeah. - It's funny, it's funny.
- I'm not funny. - Yeah, you're not funny.
- That was funny, though. - Yeah.
It was, you had to be there. Obviously.
[Gentle pop music in background]
JAMIE: Mummy.
Do you want to sleep in there with him?
Hm.
- Yeah. - JAMIE: Mummy.
I'll crash on the sofa.
It's cool.
JAMIE: Mummy?
Thanks.
EMMA: Hello, darling.
[Sighs]
[Traffic hum]
I assume you don't want to come in for a drink?
Like a quick after work drink?
Yeah, as colleagues.
Okay.
Ignore the mess.
Oh, you can just dump it here.
[Tense music]
- Just there. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, cool.
Cheers.
Sorry, yeah. Cheers.
Let's play a game. I'll go first.
Truth or dare?
Truth.
Okay. Um...
Ask me a question.
Any question.
Um.
- I don't know, I can't think. - [Aysha chuckles]
Okay.
You go first.
Very good. Truth?
What do you find sexiest about me?
[Music evokes a heartbeat]
Your eyes.
[Panting, heavy breathing]
LUKE: Fuck off.
[Music increases in intensity]
- [Music ends abruptly] - Wait, wait, wait,
[Luke sighs]
Sorry.
[Sighs] I do want you. It's just... it's just...
It's just what?
No, it's not, come here.
Come here.
AYSHA: Go home.
No. Just shut up, come here.
Go home.
Don't fuck with my head.
[Groans]
LUKE: Fuck it.
[Tender music]
What?
LUKE: I'm sorry. I'm...
AYSHA: Am I just a dirty fantasy
What? I mean... Why are you?
No. Why?
Why are you saying all this shit?
Look...

[Luke, softly:] I ain't done this before.
Hey.

Ashiq is staying with us for a while.
I'll take my bag up.
You okay?
[Ashiq cries softly]
Why did someone do this to you?
How?
My baby.
I don't understand.
Su che?
Su che, dikro?
Do you remember when I was 77
And you found me crying?
You asked me why I was so upset.
I said it was my best mate Tom.
He had a girlfriend.
You said I should be happy for him.
But what I didn't say was...
I wanted to be his girlfriend.
[Shamim breathes heavily]
Mummy, I've...
Shhh.
Enough.
Never say this again.
Papa must never know.
Never.
I love you so much.
[Sombre music]
[Sobs]
I love you too, Mummy.
IMRAN: Ya Allah, thank you.
It's okay.
For bringing our family together
And for having Ashiq under our roof,
where he belongs where he's safe.
- [Beep] - LUKE, ON VOICEMAIL:
Yeah, I went to the hospital
and they... they said that you were discharged.
- [Sombre music] - So, can I come see you?
I don't understand what's going on.
DANNY: Now don't get me wrong. Like I love her and all that,
Get in there, you slag.
Aren't any fucking cherries...
But I don't need the stress.
I'll just leave her a couple of days
Let her miss me.
And then I'll go around and say sorry, buy flowers.
Bring her home and treat her like a wifey.
[Beep]
LUKE, ON VOICEMAIL: Hi, it's me. Again.
Yeah, just, you know, just seein' how you are.

I'll be back soon, I promise.
Yeah. [Kisses Jamie]
- Love you. - Love you.
Okay, goodbye.
IMRAN: Ya Allah, please give him the strength
and guidance to once again rise up his head with pride.
Bring the rest, beta.
Ameen.
That's what he needs to do. He needs to pu..
Go on, go on.
Oh, for fuck's sake, ref.
Should have gone to Specsavers
Look. Oh, get up. You're like a bird.
You broke your eyelash, love, have you?
Hey, hey, you broke it. Come on, you Hammers.
Show me, show me. Come on, you Hammers.

Can we talk privately?
Girls, can you give us a moment, please?
Thanks.
ZINA: Thanks.
Where is she?
Out of hospital.
Is she back at the flat?
No, she's at her parents.
Nothing like your mummy's cooking to make
[Sniffs]
ZINA: What?
I'm... I'm...
I'm going mad.
She ain't answering my calls. I don't... I don't know
Listen, the Aysha you know doesn't exist.
She's Ashig now.
I don't even think she leaves the house.
Well, can you give me the address?
No.
- No, I can't. - Come on.
Mm-mm. She'll kill me.
She's miles away.
I don't care, please.
[Zina sighs]
LUKE: Alright.
[Door opens]
Hi.
Uh, I'm Luke.
I'm a mate of Ashig's from London.
Can I see him?
Wait.
Alright, I'm Luke.
I'm a mate of Ashiq's.
Is he in?
My dad's not home.
And uh, he doesn't like strangers in the house.
So...
Right. But I'm here to see Ashiq, aren't I?
Not your dad.
So, can you tell him I'm here?
Like, now.
Like, right now?
Thanks.
[Door closes]
I understand that you and Ashiq are friends.
Yeah.
How long have you known each other?
Umm.
Well, it's been quite a while.
Uh, a couple years or so.
Hm.
How did you meet?
We met at the... at the garage.
Uh, my... my dad runs... [Clears throat]
Sorry. My uh... my dad, he runs a garage and um,
I work there.
[Tray tinkles]
Juice?
Yeah, thanks.
You're welcome.
Yeah, so I-I...
He came into the garage and um, we just got talking.
Ashiq doesn't own a car.
Right, yeah.
Uh...
It... it wasn't...
It was his mate's car.
He came in with his mate and um,
yeah, the exhaust was done in.
IMRAN: Do you know
Yeah.
I heard, yeah.
That's why I wanted to see him.
[Breathes and sighs]
If Allah brings you to it, He can bring you through it.
[Clock ticks]
It must be tough on all of you.
I've got a son.
He's 5.
Here he is.
Thanks.
I can't imagine if anything like that happened to him.
Yes.
I'm sorry to question you.
You're a father.
You understand.
We must always protect our children.
Hammad, bring your brother down.
No.
Let him go up.
Hammad, take him up.
Come on.
He's in there.
[Knocks]
[Sighs]
LUKE: I got your address from Zina.
She made me work really hard for it.
Don't be mad.
Not as hard as your dad just made me work, though.
You've changed.
You're suddenly funny.
Miss Teddy.
Cute.
It's healed pretty well.
I don't need your pity.
I don't pity you.
I miss you.
Can 1?
I deserve what happened.
No, you don't.
It's God's way of punishing me.
Everything happens for a reason.
What?
Well, why did we meet then?
What's the reason for that?
That's bollocks.
You're just being a victim now.
Fuck off.
I know you. And you don't believe
I know you don't.
- What are you doing? - What the fuck.
- No, if my dad sees this... - Well, he's not gonna see.
Come on, let's go. We can drink in the car.
No, I'm not going out.
Yes, you are.
No, I'm not.
Sitting in here won't do shit for you.
Come on.
Seriously, this isn't helping the situation.
Alright, fine.
Drink 'em in here then.
[Ashiq chuckles]
[Ashiq and Luke laugh]
LUKE: One of my faves, yeah.
Alright, that's me done.
We better go.
If we're too long, my mum will think
LUKE: I got you a little something.
ASHIQ: Thanks.
Well, aren't you gonna try it?
Okay.
What?
I think this is the end.
Of Aysha.
She wasn't real.
Well, she felt pretty real to me.
Shut up, come on.
Don't make me choose between you and my family.
I'm not.
Aren't you?
You're the one who said your parents are dead.
I'm sorry I lied about them.
Yeah, it was fucked up.
I was telling you about my mum.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I really am.
But this...
You...
Aysha...
I can't do this anymore.
It's all about you, isn't it?
You'll find someone.
[Luke scoffs]
You will.
They'll love Jamie.
Don't talk about my son.
