Bunny and the Bull Page #6

It's unnaturally close.

Yeah, this is what's wrong

with the world, isn't it?

A couple of buddies can't cuddle up

together in the middle of the night

without tongues wagging,

people judging...

- Have you been drinking?

- Yes.

Look, Bunny,

can you just get off me, please?

My God. Why are you naked?

Yeah, I had a bit of bad luck.

What happened?

Where's the suit?

I can't lie to you, dude.

I lost it to a fat gypsy.

What?

It wasn't my fault. He cheated.

Well, I'm pretty sure he cheated.

Either that

or he's just really good at cards.

- You've got to get it back.

- No dice, dude.

The f***er wouldn't

let me keep my pants.

Technically that's not even

part of the suit.

But you try reasoning with

a big fat gypsy at 4 am in the nuddy-nud.

- It can't be done, dude.

- Javier's gonna go mental.

I know.

I know he's gonna go mental.

That's why we've gotta get out of here

before he wakes up. Pack!

I'm not going,

Bunny.

What?

Sorry.

Come on, buddy.

You've gotta help me out here.

I'm staying.

You can't abandon me.

Look at me.

I need you.

I'm sorry.

At least give me some pants.

And buy me a train ticket.

Give me some pants, dude.

Give me some pants!

Train's not for a couple of hours.

Sure I can't tempt you

into one last little drinkie?

I've got to go, Bunny.

I want to be there when she wakes up.

Explain what's happened.

Look, why don't I give her a call?

Bunny, don't.

Seriously, I'll explain what happened.

I'll smooth things over. It'll be fine.

Really.

Please.

OK.

Well...

Have a good trip.

Yeah, you too.

I hope everything works out for you.

- S?

- Eloisa.

It's Bunny

Listen,

there's something I need to tell you.

About your brother's suit.

Hey.

What's up?

I just spoke to Bunny.

- He told me everything.

- What?

You can't abandon me.

I just spoke to Bunny

I need you.

Hey buddy.

What am I gonna do without you?

I can't believe

she flew off at you like that.

I fessed up and everything.

Guilt by association, I suppose.

I mean, there were a couple of things

I could have been clearer on,

in hindsight, but it was a very bad line.

You know, very crackly.

And I was very drunk.

Throw all that into the equation...

whole thing was a bit of a blur,

to be honest.

The important thing is,

we're back on the road.

Boys on the train.

Olive?

Come on.

Feel like I'm hogging them here.

No?

Come on. Chin up, dude.

You'll be over her in no time.

I mean, honestly, hand on heart,

can you even remember

what she looks like?

I know I can't.

And I was closer to her face

a hell of a lot more often than you were.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but...

We both know what I'm talking about.

There's no need to dwell on that

at this stage.

Yeah. Yeah.

Tell you what,

we can go anywhere you want.

Anywhere you want.

No. Listen to me, being insensitive.

I'll choose.

Let Bunny take charge for a change.

Here we go.

What is it you actually do, Bunny?

You talk about me not doing anything,

but what have you ever achieved?

You go to Spain to fight a bull

and what happens?

You get pissed,

f*** around in a car park, nick a suit,

and then head out to play cards.

- You want me to fight a bull?

- I don't...

- I'll fight a bull now.

- It's not about the bull.

I thought you said it was dangerous

and morally repugnant, but what the hell!

There's bulls out there now.

Fields chock-full of them.

Let's go, amigo.

I don't...

I don't want to do this any more.

You can't help it.

I want to go home.

Hey... Stop.

There's one. Got him.

This is f***ing ridiculous. Let's go back.

I'm not going to save you, Bunny.

You won't have to.

Hey.

Toro!

Have I missed anything?

- No.

- Toro!

Again.

Not long to go now, buddy.

Come on.

I'm sorry.

What for?

I should have stopped you.

You couldn't have.

Anyway, it was a pretty good way to go.

Gored by a bull.

I mean, I had always hoped

to be sucked out of an airlock

or gunned down by some demented fan.

But... I'll take a bull.

It was a great bet.

You wanna do something for me?

Go get laid!

Have you any idea of the mileage

you can get out of this?

"Hi, my name's Stephen."

"My best friend just died.

I don't know if I'll ever love again."

Balls in, balls in, balls in.

Fun time!

If you'd have been killed, I'd have

shagged a thousand women by now.

I don't want to shag a thousand women.

I don't wanna shag any women.

Apart from Eloisa.

I haven't spoken to her in a year.

Last time she saw me,

she kicked my arse, remember?

You can talk her round.

I wouldn't even know what to say.

Just tell her that I died

and you had a really tough time

dealing with it,

and...

you hope that somehow

she can find it in her heart to...

Boom! Boom-boom-boom.

Wokachika, wokachika.

Naughty, naughty, naughty.

Boom-boom-boom.

Wokachika, wokachika...

At least give her a call.

Have a good trip.

You not coming?

No.

I don't think that's the deal.

I'll miss you.

Listen...

Will you do one last thing for me?

Yeah, of course.

Bunny...

What? Anything.

There's a horse running

in the 5:
05 at Epsom.

It's lost its last 3 races,

but they just lowered his handicap.

He's blinkered for the first time.

The jockey's face is a real nightmare.

- How much?

- Everything you've got. Seriously.

Put the house on it. It's a shoo-in.

Well, got to be at least worth a fiver.

OK.

Well... you ready?

Yeah.

LOVE:

Alone Again Or

Yeah

I said it's all right

I won't forget

All the times

I've waited patiently for you

And you'll do

just what you choose to do

And I will be alone again tonight,

my dear

Yeah

I heard a funny thing

Somebody said to me

You know that I could be in love

with almost everyone

I think that people are the greatest fun

Yeah

I heard a funny thing

Somebody said to me

You know that I could be in love

with almost everyone

I think that people are the greatest fun
