Clare Quote #77

Quote from Clare in The Agreement

Clare: I've had a shocker, girls!
Erin: Clare, what happened?
Clare: I lost my timetable, the bus broke down, fan belt snapped. All these old women were taking their tights off and handing them to the driver, and he was like, "This isn't a film, I'm not a mechanic." Then I finally get to the parish hall and I get cornered by your Uncle Colm.
Erin: Christ.
Clare: I managed to free myself, then some wain told me you went to Jenny Joyce's house, and when I got there, the weirdest thing happened...
[flashback:]
Clare: [v.o.] Well, I'm looking for you lot when I bump into Jenny, who tells me...
Jenny: Oh, no, they all left, I think. It was probably a bit upsetting for Erin, realising the entire year chose my party instead of hers. I did try and warn her.
Clare: [v.o.] And I thought to myself, wouldn't it be a pity if there was a blackout?
[present:]
Erin: Blackout?!
Clare: So I said to Jenny, "Either the party's over, or we relocate it."
The Commitment: Jesus, Clare, where the hell is this gaff?
Erin: Oh, my God!
Clare: Looks like your party's gonna be the biggest night of the year after all, girls!
James: Clare, you little lesbian legend!
Michelle: Let's go, motherfuckers.

 ‘The Agreement’ Quotes

Quote from Aunt Sarah

News Anchor: [on TV] Some of the proposed reforms have proved extremely controversial, particularly the early release of paramilitary prisoners. And now, with only days until the referendum takes place, voters across the country must get to grips with this booklet, a 30-page document laying out the Good Friday Agreement in simple terms...
Joe: Simple terms! Simple terms my arse. I've read through thon introduction 30 bloody times. I'm still none the wiser.
Mary: [opens microwave] Wow.
Aunt Sarah: Well, according to Shauna Sharkey, if you vote yes, you're allowed to swing both ways.
Gerry: What's that now?
Aunt Sarah: Well, you can be Irish, you can be British, or you can be bi.
Gerry: OK, I don't think "bi" is the correct term.
Joe: Says here you can hold both passports.
Mary: Two passports? That'd come in handy. I'm forever losing mine. I think I wouldn't mind being bi, you know.

Quote from Granda Joe

Joe: Er, the release of all paramilitary prisoners, both flavours.
[Joe points to two different packets of Tayto Cheese & Onion crisps]
Gerry: Both flavours?
Mary: Loyalist and Republican.
Gerry: Of course.
Mary: This is what I don't understand. What happens to the lads when they get out? I mean, what does an ex-paramilitary do?
Joe: Gardening.
Gerry: Gardening?
Joe: Have you any better suggestions?

Quote from Granda Joe

Joe: Right, as far as I can make out, this thing has two main aims. Firstly, to stop us all killing one another.
Aunt Sarah: Fair enough.
Joe: And secondly, to allow us to govern ourselves from here, rather than England.
Aunt Sarah: From Derry?
Joe: I would say so.
Gerry: Would it not be more likely to be Belfast? Belfast is the capital.
Mary: Aye, but that was an oversight, Gerry.
