DARREN, pissed, struggles to strip off the jacket ANDRZEJ

gave him and throws it to the floor. Seeing this, JAN steps

over to OLLIE trying to intimidate him. OLLIE just smiles,

not scared at all and pulls the cigarette from his lip.

OLLIE:

He’s made his choice.

He flicks the cigarette on the jacket which instantly

bursts into flames.

DARREN:

(Pissed but happy)

Ha! Woof like dog.

He tries to stand up but is too pissed and weak. OLLIE

takes his hand.

ANDRZEJ:

But Darren... You were like my son.

DARREN stares at him is disbelief then points to JAN.

DARREN:

He’s your son...!

ANDRZEJ’S turns to JAN like looking at him for the first

time.

JAN:

Pappa...

ANDRZEJ:

My son...

And suddenly the are embracing. DARREN smiles at them.

Arrrrrh. Then his legs give way and he nearly falls to the

floor.

OLLIE:

I’ve got you, Darren. I’ve got you.

(Their eyes meet and Ollie

smiles)

You’ve got work tomorrow!

He scoops Darren up off the floor and into his arms.

And with that “LOVE LIFT US UP WHERE WE BELONG” by Joe

Cocker & Jennifer Warnes kicking in, OLLIE, dressed in

WHITE OVERALLS OLLIE begins to carry DARREN off into the

distance - An Officer and A Gentleman style.

FADE TO:

228 INT. OAK PUB - EVENING 7 - 20:00 228

The music fades to become the music playing in the

background of the pub.

LIZ, EMMA and TONY all stare at the sight before them with

shocked, bewildered and amused faces.

They watch OLLIE and DARREN, drunk off their faces at the

bar trying to stand up and doing shots. They keep putting

their arms around each other and hugging in happiness and

joy.

EMMA:

(To Tony)

They’ve been drinking how long?

TONY:

Since about three.

EMMA:

(Smirking)

I hope they remember this tomorrow.

LIZ:

(Filming it on her phone)

Oh, they will. I’m keeping this

forever.

They burst out LAUGHING as DARREN loses his footing

slightly, crashing to the floor. OLLIE, equally as drunk

looks at him on the floor and then to the bar.

OLLIE:

More tequila here, please.

LIZ, TONY and EMMA LAUGH louder and harder than ever. Then

HARD CUT TO:

229 EXT. TONY’S HOUSE - MORNING 8 - 08:00 229

Bang. The front door is opened, by OLLIE (looking like

death).

He finds DARREN leaning against the side of the van looking

incredibly ill.

DARREN:

Just so you know, I’m really

hungover, so I’m doing no work

today.

OLLIE:

Err, no, you’ll do the work I tell

you to do. I’m the boss.

DARREN:

You’re not the boss. Your Dad’s the

boss.

OLLIE:

No, Darren. What I say goes.

DARREN:

We’ll see...

They pause for a moment and look at each other.

OLLIE:

Darren...

DARREN:

What?

OLLIE:

(Smiles subtly)

Get in the van.

Darren, can’t help but smile too as together again, they

climb in the van.

TONY, smiling, watches from the window.

FADE TO BLACK.
