-
Dale Jennings : Party started an hour ago.
Helen Norville : I've still got half an hour worth of dressing to do.
-
Val Jennings : And the Carlisles. They rang before it had even finished. They said it was fascinating.
Dale Jennings : It's just filler, Mum.
Val Jennings : It wasn't. You could see Geoff Waters was impressed. He very pointedly said, 'Thanks, Dale.'
Dale Jennings : Oh, he always says that. It's in the script.
-
Tim Ahern : Hey, so I notice you and Helen are keeping a low profile. Is it over or has it just kind of gone underground?
Dale Jennings : Nothing ever happened.
Ross : I heard she stayed at your place. And I heard you made out with her in Murray's edit booth.
Dale Jennings : She stayed at my house on one occasion and we had a career discussion. That's it. I don't know why you find it so fascinating.
Tim Ahern : You know it's not just us, right? It's the talk of the entire office.
Dale Jennings : Why?
Tim Ahern : I don't know. People like to gossip about Helen.
-
Dale Jennings : Don't leave on my account.
Lindsay Cunningham : Mate, I don't think I'd ever do that.
-
Tim Ahern : So, you and Helen, eh? When did that happen?
Dale Jennings : What?
Ross : She a bit of a goer? I reckon she would be for sure.
Dale Jennings : Uh, there's nothing happening between Helen and I.
Tim Ahern : Oh, right.
Ross : Okay.
-
Helen Norville : Are you sure that you can't come with me tonight?
Dale Jennings : You're not still going, are you?
Helen Norville : Yeah.
Dale Jennings : Don't you think you should take a couple of days off work? I mean, I was worried about you last night.
Helen Norville : Geoff's stepping down. Lindsay said he was gonna make the announcement at the party, so I really want to be there.
-
Tim Ahern : Who made the first move?
Ross : She the big spoon or little spoon?
Tim Ahern : Big spoon, I reckon.
Ross : Big spoon, for sure. Definitely.
Dale Jennings : Can we focus please?
-
Helen Norville : Are you sure you can't just come? Just maybe until the speeches?
Dale Jennings : No, I actually have a thing.
Helen Norville : What, like a... like a date?
Dale Jennings : No. No. Tim from Camera is having a thing for the comet.
Helen Norville : What, just the two of you?
Dale Jennings : No, I think it's all the camera boys.
Helen Norville : Are you sure about that?
Dale Jennings : Yeah.
Helen Norville : Are you sure he's not just testing the waters?
Dale Jennings : I'm talking about Tim Ahern, the cameraman.
Helen Norville : [laughing] Yeah, I know! Gay Tim from Camera!
Dale Jennings : Tim's not a homosexual.
Helen Norville : [laughs] All I'm saying is that every other guy in that camera department's checked me out except Tim.
