Harry Pendel:
Oh, yes. The lies. Very, very sorry about the lies. Louisa, I never did work in Saville Row, did I? Not as such. I learned the tailoring in prison. I burned down my Uncle Benny's warehouse to help him out. And then when I done my time, Uncle Benny, he gives me my portion, sends me out here so I can't get into trouble. I pretended he was Arthur Braifwaite. You see, lying's what we do in prison, luv. It's instead of love, really. You tell a thing the way it ought to be because that's so much better than how it is. Well, it's that bad. If you follow me.

Louisa Pendel:
Why didn't you just tell me from the start?

Harry Pendel:
[sobbing] Because I fell in love with you, my princess, and I knew that I wasn't good enough for you. Not as I stood.

Louisa Pendel:
Harry, you are such a fool.

Sarah Pendel:
[Coming downstairs] Dad, you promised to tell me a story. Where were you?

Harry Pendel:
Oh, Sarah, I'm so sorry.

Sarah Pendel:
No need to cry about it, Dad.

Mark Pendel:
[Coming downstairs] Hi, Dad.

Sarah Pendel:
Hi, Mum.

Harry Pendel:
What do you want me to do?

Louisa Pendel:
What do I want you to do? What you always do. [pregnant pause] Make breafast.

Mark Pendel:
Can we have pancakes?
