  • Right, your dad can't get any more time off work, so he's said he has to come and pick you up tomorrow.

  • What does it look like I'm doing?! It's tomorrow or you're making your own way home.

  • Ivy? I'm just ringing to check up on you. Your landlord, Len, I think it is...? Well, he rang your father and said we should probably make sure you're alright... Look, why don't you come home, love? It doesn't seem like you're very happy there... I can't imagine there's many of your friends left--
