Guest House Paradiso Page #2

Synopsis: Richie and Eddie are in charge of the worst hotel in the UK, Guest House Paradiso, neighbouring a nuclear power plant. The illegal immigrant chef has fled and all the guests have gone. But when a famous Italian filmstar, Gina Carbonara, who is in hiding from a fiance she doesn't want to marry, arrives at the hotel, things get very interesting! Another family come to the hotel as it is the only one they can afford, and when Richie uses the many tunnels and airways to steal some of their rubber bikinis, then is caught by the family's dad, he tries everything to get the video back. When Eddie finds some radioactive fish and it's served to the customers, a bunch of power plant workers find out and a quaratine is on its way. Even worse, when Gina's estranged fiance arrives, all hell breaks loose! Just in time for Eddie, Richie and Gina to escape to the Carribean and spend all their new found money!

Aaaaaaarrrrgggh!

- Ah!|- Urgh!

Urgh! Urgh! Urgh!

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Aaaaarrrgh!

Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrgh!

ls there any danger of getting food?

- Breakfast's off.|- Off?

Yes. There is no breakfast.|You're both too fat, anyway.

Really! That's too much!|I've never...

Oh, do shut your gob, lard-arse!

This is preposterous.

You can shut yours, too.

- That's it.|- Darling, don't!

Do you want some, eh? Do you want...

- some?|- He's a black belt in karate!

More like a pink belt in hanging|about gentlemen's lavatories!

Richie...

Hello, bird!

Oh, Richie! It's Richie!

Oh, it's Richie!

Hello...other bird!

It's Richie! Richie!

Come saucy wood-nymphs, gather|from your groves - it is Richie!

Hello!

Hello! Hello! Hello!

Hello, birds!

Come, love-nymphs.|Out of respect for Richie,

let us take out our great knockers|and wobble them about.

Oh, yes, let's!

No, love-nymphs,|let us open our fairy briefcases

and shower him with unmarked tenners!

Erotically...

(All) Hurrah! Yes!|What a smashing idea!

But first, proud, firm young maidens|who are definitely on for it,

let us anoint him with pints|of super-strength illegal cider!

(All) Oh, yes! Let's!

(Giggling)

Settle, birds...

(Eddie) Ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

A-ha ha ha ha ha!

(Eddie's laughter echoes)

Oh, stop it! Stop it!

(Eddie) Richie,|you've been out for eight hours!

Eight hours?|What have you been doing?

Trying to rouse you with this.

How has the hotel|functioned without me?

Easily, 'cause the guests have gone.

Gone! Did any of them pay?

Er...no.

Did they find the safe?

I'm afraid so.

Damn! So they got|all their stuff back?!

(Cash till rings)

Oh...!

What about advance bookings?

Um, not too good.

Oh, God!

Oh, come on, Richie.|It's not that bad.

Yes, it is. I've just trapped|my penis in the till drawer.

(Cash till rings)

(Foxfur) Oh, Mr Twat?

It's "Thwaite!"

I thought you said|all the guests have gone?

I thought she was dead.

Ah, Twat.|My eggs stilI haven't arrived.

Because you went through|the menopause years ago.

I beg your pardon?

I said I'm afraid breakfast is off.

Oh, have some sherry.

Oh! ls it my birthday?

- Oh...yes!|- What, again?

It's the third time this month.

Yes! Have another one.

(Whispers) Eddie, mark the bottle.

I was just wondering, Mrs Foxfur,|given your increasing infirmity,

whether you might like|to take the opportunity

to pay your bill in advance?

We don't want you getting|so crippled by arthritis

that you can't sign the cheque.

I gave you five years advance|last week.

Yeah! And the week before that.

Oh, yes.

Silly old me.

(Sighs)

Hmm...

ls that gold in those teeth?

You should get those checked.

My twin is a dentist!

Your twin? ls that the same twin|who's a gynaecologist?

Huh?

Er, no, no. He's the third twin.

Yes, that's who he is. I'll get him|to come round this afternoon.

No, I'll get him|to come round right now.

- Yes, but I... I think I...|- No trouble, Mrs Foxfur.

Come along. Up to your room.|Come on, come on!

COME ON!

Right, I'll be...|HE'LL be along in a moment.

Come on! Come on!

Get me a doctor's coat,|some pliers and a hammer.

And your glasses as a disguise.

How do I look?

I don't know, I can't see.

Edward, have you been taking drugs?

Well, never mind depravity.|Let's kick the old bint's teeth out.

(Horns honking)

You're sure this is the right place?

- lt doesn't look nice.|- There's a nuclear power station.

Times are hard and this is|the cheapest hotel in Britain.

Let's make the best of it.

Come on, we're on holiday! Hooray.

- Oh! Oh!|- Go on! Drink it, you b*tch!

Good, that should've|loosened them up.

Eddie, get the croquet mallet while|I do some preliminary bridgework.

Righty-dokey!

(Bell dings)

Quick, Eddie, put your fingerprints|all over this hammer.

Righto.

Dr Twat, is that you?

Er, yes.

Have you completed|the root canal work?

- (Bell dings)|- Er, yes.

That's looking macfine.

I'll pop back in a week and give ye a|wee check-up. Come on, let's scarper!

(Dings bell)

(Dings bell)

Good morning,|good morning, good morning!

We were beginning to think|nobody was here.

lt looked like the Marie Celeste.

(Forced laughter)

How amusing! Ha ha! Oh, ha ha ha!

(Continues to laugh)

Now, what can I do for you?

Well, we were wondering...

(Laughs again)

(Straining to laugh)

I'm sorry, I was just remembering.|I must write that one down.

"Marie...Celeste."

Ha ha ha! lmplying that we run|the kind of hotel where...

nobody wants to stay.

Right, well, we were wondering|if you had any rooms.

Yes, we'd like two rooms, adjoining.

With a sea view, please.

Gosh, you're quite forthright,|aren't you, in your demands?

My word, Eddie.|lmportant people here.

Well, first things first.|Got any valuables...

that you'd like put in the safe?

- Not really, no.|- What about that ring?

Well, I never take it off.

The watch, then? ls that expensive?

No, it's a cheap copy.

That'll do.|The pawnbroker's very short-sighted.

Eddie!

..means you don't need|a watch in paradise.

Time...stops here.

(Richie chuckles) So watch, please.

- I'd rather keep it...|- Watch! Please.

- I won't be able...|- Watch!

Come along!

Mmm. There, better safe than sorry.

Eddie, take their bags.

But...they'lI see, won't they?

No, Eddie, take their bags|to their rooms.

And you'll keep 'em talking? Gotcha!

Whoo! Look over there!

And off we go!

Off to your rooms.

Uh-uh uh-uh uh.

- I beg your pardon?|- I'll say.

Have you stayed in a hotel before?|This is the corridor.

And this is the light switch.

I've depressed the light switch,|which is on a timer,

which has been|scientifically designed

to allow you plenty of time|to insert your key in the...

Arse.

(Boy) lnsert it in your arse?

(Richie) Never mind, I'm a|resourceful chap, so I find the...

Bastard! F***ing! Where is it?!

Ah, there we are.

And in we go...

Eddie! What on earth are you doing?

Uh...I...was...|just going to unpack for them.

Don't worry,|I'd like to do that myself.

Where's the sea view?

That'll be out the window.

Well, I can't see it.

Yes, you have to lean out.|Come along.

Lean out...lean out...|LEAN out of the window!

Hold on to the scaffolding

and you can just see|the sewage pipe in Dead Man's Cove.

I've had it checked by lawyers|so don't try anything funny.

And, as a backup...

I've got a picture of some sea,|so I've got you both ways.

Could I just ask,|is breakfast thrown in?

lt depends who's serving.|I sometimes bring it on a tray.

Eddie, a word.

I've told you before,|never talk to the adult guests.

Ow!

- What?|- He poked me in the eye.

No, she walked into my finger.

Ha ha! Look, what time is it?

Oh! Uh, why don't you let Eddie|take these little...nippers

off to the playground?

Come on, you little rascals!

(Richie chuckles)

And you two pop down to the bar|for a complementary sherry.

- That sounds nice.|- It is.

And only 75 pence.

Each.

In advance.

Oh, right. Sorry.

There we are. Oh, yes...

Uh...have a...nice...day.
