Devon Seas 2006

EXT: Red Rum Pub

Patrick’s cab pulls up outside the Red Rum pub. He opens the door, goes to the boot and pulls out his suitcase. He then goes back to the door.

Patrick: Now are you sure that you’ll be ok going home alone?

Blonde: Course I will, babe.

Patrick: (to the driver) now make sure she gets home safely. Wouldn’t want anything to happen to my angel, would I?…. thanks for a fantastic weekend, gorgeous. Hope we can do it again soon.

Blonde: Sure will.

Patrick leans into the cab, gives the blonde girl a kiss, then leaves and shuts the door. The cab pulls away, and the blonde girl is clearly visible blowing Patrick a kiss. Patrick smiles, and turns to walk to the pub.

Val: Well look who it is. Nice golf trip?

Patrick: Ah, Val. Golf trip? What golf trip?

Val: The golf trip you just got back from. Amy told me all about it, after we went to the doctors. Poor thing, she was in bits. Surely you remember?

Patrick: Erm, yeah it was…great. Very relaxing. Did I hear you right? You went with Amy?

Val: Sure did. As I said, she was desperate for a shoulder to cry on. Bless her; I dunno if she’ll ever get over it.

Patrick: Well I’m sure it wont take her that long to get over going to the doctors!

Val: You have no heart, do you? She won’t get over not being able to have any children! But you didn’t even remember that that was the reason she went, did ya? You’re too busy thinking of ya blonde, to care about what she’s going through!

Patrick: (Shocked)….no children?? You mean, she’s….

Val: Infertile. Yeah, got it in one. The one thing she thought she could give ya, and she can’t. Anyway, I’m sure she’ll be thankful for your compassion.

Patrick: Val, I never said I didn’t care about it, or her. It just slipped my mind, so I’m sorry if I’m not perfect but…

Val: (mockingly) slipped ya mind? (Shouting) slipped ya mind? How the hell could something like that “Slip ya mind”? Patrick. You don’t deserve her, not a hair on her head. And if you think that your going to keep her, then you’ve got another thing coming. Get your act together, Patrick, before someone else gets in there before you. She needs you right now, Patrick. Just do us all a favour, and be there for her, or get out of her life.

Val turns and goes to walk off, when Patrick grabs her on the shoulder

Patrick: I don’t need any of your advice, Val. She’s my wife, and I know what’s good her. So get your nose out of my business, and my marriage.

Val looks horrified, so turns once again, and walks off

Patrick: (Shouts) and do us all a favour and get some dress sense!!

INT. JENKINS MANOR – NIGHT

Richard and Hilary are eating a delicious meal in the dining room. The table is laid out with a fancy table cloth, lighted candlestick and the finest china.

Richard: More wine?

Hilary: Anyone would think your trying to get me drunk and lead me astray…

Richard: (Laughs) Would I do a thing like that?

Hilary: No… because I wouldn’t let you…give me some credit…

Richard: I don’t know, I invite you up here…give you one of the finest meals cooked in Devon and your still not happy…

Hilary: A bottle of vino and a slap up meal isn’t going to undo years of hurt Richard…

Richard: No…but it’s a start to rebuilding our relationship…

Hilary: Relationship?…We have no “relationship” Richard, and I don’t intend us to either…

Richard: Cant you just forgive me and forget about all that?

Hilary: “All that”… as you so innocently put it…ruined my life… every problem in my life…all these years of misery…depression…are all because of you…so I hope you appreciate why im not jumping back into your arms, expecting everything to be ok again…

Richard: And I appreciate that…I just want you to know how much I regret that one kiss…and I promise you Hilary it was just that…one meaningless kiss…you always were, and still are the only woman I have ever loved…and when I lost you…ever since I lost you…my life hasn’t been complete…I love you Hilary Taylor…

Hilary: Blackstock…Hilary Blackstock…and do you know what Richard…id probably say the same back to you…it isn’t necessarily that you kissed her…its what has happened to my life ever since…it all went wrong, I have lived thirty years of unimaginable uncomfort…that someone like you could never imagine…and it all boils back to when I left you…how can I say I love you when I resent you for making my life a misery!?

Richard doesn’t answer this…the pair eat their meal silently. The clanging of cutlery against the china is haunting.

Hilary: (Reminiscent) God I miss this place you know…the one place that I’ve ever considered home…its just so beautiful…much better than that run down bed and breakfast down in the village…

Hilary smiles, knowing Richard’s next move.

Richard: You know…you could always move in here….as friends I mean…I mean it’s the least I could do for you…save you having to spend the rest of your life in the B & B.

Hilary: No thank you….I’m fine…once I’ve settled down ill get myself a job and a flat…I don’t need to rely on you Richard….

Richard: Look you’ve said yourself you don’t like the B&B…and well I really don’t mind…what with Ed gone and Nick always away with his lady friend it gets quiet lonely up here…I could do with some adult company around here…id really appreciate it…

Hilary: IF…and only If I decided to stay here, it would be rent free, and I would have no obligation to form any relationship with you what so ever… I would merely be doing it just to spend more time with Nick…

Richard: Look I know all this…and its fine…if you don’t want a relationship…then that’s fine…over time when we’ve got to know each other again that might change…who knows…

Hilary: It wont change…I don’t fancy a cretin like you now and never will… I’ll get Nick to bring my bags up tomorrow morning…and I expect freshly pressed bed linen by the time I arrive…. (pause) pass the salt please…

Hilary smiles triumpathly.

Strick one.. Hilary get back into the manor and on her terms with invite from Richard.. no fool like an old fool...

Red Rum upstairs Flat

Patrick opens the door to the flat, to find Amy sitting on the sofa, shredding pages from baby magazines up. She’s obviously been crying. He slams the door, and puts the case on the floor. He then stands there, emotionless, staring at Amy, you doesn’t react to him coming in at all.

Patrick: Val told me.

Amy: Yeah, I thought she would. And..?

Patrick: And what? Am I meant to feel something here? Anger? grief? Sadness?

Amy: Well I thought you might feel something. Or was that asking too much from m,y husband?

Patrick: Do you wanna know the truth?

Amy: Go on. Hit me.

Patrick: I’m glad. I’m glad you can have children, because you’d be a crap mother. You’re already a crap wife, what would be different about a kid?! Its had a lucky escape. After all, who’d want to be anything to do with you for the rest of their lives?!

Amy: You, Patrick. You did. The day you asked me to marry you.

Patrick: Well that was a mistake, wasn’t it

Amy: Don’t you know what this meant to me? This was the future, this child was everything to me. To us, I thought. How dare you say it had a lucky escape

Patrick: Well it’s the truth, or can’t you face that?

Amy: I’d have given a baby anything. Everything. I’d have died for a baby. I still would…

Patrick: So why you then? What’s left here for you? (Comes close to her, and faces her one on one) Your nothing Amy. You have no baby. No life. Why don’t you just die,

Amy pauses, facing him in the eyes, with tears running down her cheeks.

Amy: I hate you Patrick. I hate the day I even met you.

Patrick: Coming straight back at ya, love

Amy runs out of the flat, and slams the door. The shot still stays on Patrick, however the footsteps and sobs of Amy can be heard clearly. He looks harsh, and still unemotional. He grabs his phone, and makes a call.

Patrick: (on the phone) Hey babe, you get home ok?

Blonde: Just stepped through the door this minute. Yeah I’m fine hun, and yourself?

Patrick: Been better, to say the least!

Blonde: Looks like someone needs cheering up…

Patrick: Sure do. How about tonight? My place?

Blonde: I’m there. Bye sexy

Ok, I offically hate Patrick.. Poor amy, she is not a crap wife, a stupid wife for putting up with him but poor woman, she would have found something in her life that had meaning.. :crying:

Dang I am not allowed to cuss on the boards, oh I wanted to call Patrick every name in the book, the ******* !!! :angry: Poor Amy, I wanted to run after her and give her a shoulder to cry on.
