00:00Look, has anyone seen my biology folder?
00:1520, 40, 60, 80. Carla, I'm right out of 10s and 50s for my float.
00:20Don't look at me, Dad. I'm in the agency all morning, then I've got a massage client coming in the afternoon. I'm chuck all day.
00:27Gemma, come and sit down.
00:29Jake, eat. And can we keep human biology off the table, please?
00:36Eight wishes left.
00:38Anything in the whole world. Anything, Frank.
00:42Food, that's the best bit. Can't go wrong with nosh.
00:45Frank, you've got a one-track mind.
00:47Yeah.
00:48Think about this thing. It's incredible.
00:51You really need to stop this talking to yourself thing, Jake. It's weird.
00:55No, it's not weird. I'm just talking to Frank.
00:59Oh, yes, the ferret. So that's OK.
01:03I thought I said no ferrets at the breakfast table.
01:07Really, it's fine, look. It's got a leash on.
01:11What is it? My table manners? Cheeky.
01:13It's Jake that needs a leash. He's dippy.
01:19Chief, shop.
01:22OK, I'll go.
01:28Hi, only me. Ready.
01:30Oh, hi, Jake. Are you coming with us?
01:33I'm not going to school with him in that coat carrying a stoat.
01:38I don't think so.
01:40Jake, you are not taking Frank to school.
01:43Put him back in his cage.
01:46I'm sorry, I have a reputation.
01:49I cannot be seen walking on a public highway with Mr Sadow here.
01:53Why not?
01:54What's that down there?
01:55Toes!
01:59I rest my case.
02:01Oh, just once, just one day, I wish we could have an extra pair of hands around the place.
02:07It's the most stupid thing I've ever heard in my whole life.
02:12Hey, what's that going to be? Pet food store, maybe?
02:15Frank!
02:16What?
02:17What?
02:18Look, here's the deal.
02:20You're the pet, you stay in your cage and lounge around.
02:23I'm the kid, I go to school and get picked on.
02:27OK, seems clear. Just keep quiet in there.
02:31I think, um...
02:34Oh, look who it is.
02:36Um...
02:38Oh, look who it is.
02:40Freak boy walking past my bus shelter.
02:43Yeah, look at him. Look at that coat.
02:46I never knew fluorescent strips could be so cool.
02:49What have you got under there, then, eh?
02:52Wow. Is it yours?
02:55No wonder everyone thinks you're a weird weasel, boy.
02:58It's because you are weird.
03:00Now, about that money you owe me.
03:07So, how much?
03:09£1.50. Protection money.
03:13Just to walk past his stupid bus shelter.
03:16Why can't I stand up to these people?
03:19Have a bit of dignity for once.
03:24I need a new image.
03:27What a day.
03:29Do you ever just wish you could start the whole thing again?
03:34No, but you could.
03:37You're right.
03:39I could, yeah.
03:42Yes.
03:44OK.
03:46I wish I could start the whole day again.
03:49But this time...
03:51I want to be the coolest boy in school.
03:57It worked.
03:59We're back.
04:01Hey, does that mean we get to have breakfast again?
04:04I'm sorry, I have a reputation.
04:06I cannot be seen walking on a public highway with Mr Sadow here.
04:10Why not?
04:12OK, Frank, remember, don't jump off the chair.
04:15Why would I jump off the chair? Because there's toast on it.
04:18Toast!
04:25I rest my case.
04:28Just once, just one day, I wish we had an extra pair of hands around the place.
04:33I don't get it. I don't look any different.
05:00SOPHIE I don't feel any different. I don't look cool.
05:04I'm supposed to be cool.
05:05NICKY It's not working.

05:07NICKY Oh, look, Nicky. It's Jake. Jakey.
