“Phil, sorry for calling so late. I know you got the family. Do you have twenty bucks that you could lend me? You know I wouldn’t phone you otherwise but they say it’s going down to minus 17 tonight. And I’ve gotta get a bed.”
PHILIP
“OK. Whatever. You’ll get it back to me tomorrow? Never mind. It’s Christmas. Come over.”
TONY
“Five minutes. I’ll be over in five minutes.”
PHILIP
“Where are you?”
TONY
“On Ronces. You know, around Geoffrey. I’ll be there in five minutes.”
PHILIP
“OK, five minutes. I’ve got some bananas for you here I think. Maybe something else too. I’ll look.”
TONY
“I’ll be there in five minutes.”
PHILIP
“OK, bye.”
TONY
“Bye.”
