131
At 00:07:22,442, Character said: Oh.

132
At 00:07:27,113, Character said: A cool half million.

133
At 00:07:29,115, Character said: Should keep you in guitar
strings for a couple of years,

134
At 00:07:31,284, Character said: you bloody mercenary.

135
At 00:07:32,660, Character said: -Well, hang on. That's not...
-No, I'm just--

136
At 00:07:34,287, Character said: ...the reason
I'm doing the gig.

137
At 00:07:35,621, Character said: No. No, no, no. No, no, no.

138
At 00:07:36,956, Character said: This is all jokes.

139
At 00:07:38,624, Character said: I'm just joking.

140
At 00:07:39,876, Character said: Jokes included.

141
At 00:07:40,960, Character said: It's just, um...

142
At 00:07:42,462, Character said: I-I'm not really used
to having guests.

143
At 00:07:44,130, Character said: I'm just trying to get some
atmos going.

144
At 00:07:46,549, Character said: Uh, there's a case in point--

145
At 00:07:47,800, Character said: I've made myself a tea
and not you.

146
At 00:07:51,888, Character said: Yeah, look,
can I get changed, please?

147
At 00:07:54,640, Character said: -It's-- I'm drenched.
-You are.

148
At 00:07:56,225, Character said: Dame Judi.

149
At 00:07:58,144, Character said: Dame Judi Drenched.
