Ă propos de ce livre
At seventeen years old, Scott is facing a future that is as uncertain as his past. The death of his adopted mother throws his life into chaos, and now he finds himself having to fit in with a new middle-class family, and the birth-mother he never knew. Class differences soon reach fever pitch, and guilt has the winning hand. Whoever thought change would be this difficult, and what is Scott hiding under the bed?

Act One
SCENE 1
Friday evening. A Liverpool couple, LISA and DANIEL, are in their kitchen, preparing a meal. There is a table and chairs. LISA is breathless and nervous; DANIEL gives her a reassuring squeeze, or embrace. She drops a fork.
LISA: Damn.
DANIEL picks it up. Pause as they look at each other.
DANIEL: Take it easy.
LISA: Yeh.
Pause. They carry on.
DANIEL: Itâs fine.
Silence as they continue to prepare.
LISA: Shall I do the table?
DANIEL: Go âead then.
LISA does so but cannot make up her mind how to set it out.
LISA: (Trying different arrangements.) Maybe... I dunno.
She re-arranges it.
Do ya think... which side should we sit him on?
DANIEL: I donât think he cares.
LISA: Maybe I should sit next to...
Pause.
I hope itâs gonna be all right. I hope...
DANIEL: Take it easy. Getting worked up over nothing.
LISA: Nothing?
DANIEL: You know what I mean.
LISA: Not really.
DANIEL: Lisa...
He goes over to her. They hold hands and look at each other.
LISA: And what about the...you know...the ashes; where the hell could they have got to? Itâs driving me crazy.
DANIEL: Theyâll turn up. Anyway, itâs nearly ready. Do you wanna give him a shout?
LISA: Yeh. Iâll just finish...
She finishes setting the table as DANIEL lays out the food. LISA goes off stage right and shouts up.
Scott! Scotty â ya teaâs ready! Come on down lad.
DANIEL: (Making fun of her.) âCome on downâ...
LISA: What?
Eventually a 17-year-old boy, SCOTT, enters. He wears a hooded top and is carrying a small tank with a towel over it. There is a book on top of the tank.
LISA: All right lad?
DANIEL: Sit down mate.
He puts the tank down in the corner.
LISA: Whatâs that?
SCOTT: Dr Who.
LISA: What â in that thing?
SCOTT: No â I mean me book.
LISA: Gonna say...
DANIEL: Sheâs pulling ya leg Scott. She meant the box. Whatâs in it?
Pause.
LISA: Have you gotta nice big cake in there for us?
SCOTT: Whaâ?
LISA: Never mind.
Silence as DANIEL puts the dinner out. SCOTT does not look impressed. DANIEL sits down and both he and LISA look on at him, relishing and expecting a challenge.
DANIEL: Well?
LISA: Try it.
They start eating, SCOTT tentatively.
SCOTT: (After a pause.) What is it?
LISA: Mushroom risotto.
SCOTT: (Playing with it.) Whaâ â like, rice anâ stuff?
LISA: Yeh. Itâs rice. Nice rice. Try it.
Pause. SCOTT takes a mouthful.
SCOTT: Can I âave chips?
DANIEL looks at LISA.
LISA: No...remember what we said...youâre gonna...just give it a go. Itâs nice.
SCOTT: I always âave chips on a Fridee.
LISA: You âave chips every day...used to...
DANIEL: Go easy...
Pause.
Look, Scotty, I love chips too. But we canât have chips all the time now, can we?
SCOTT: Why not?
LISA: They make you sick.
Pause.
SCOTT: Iâve never been sick from eatinâ chips.
LISA: I mean...itâs not...theyâre not good for you...all the time. Youâll get scurvy.
SCOTT: Whaâ?
LISA: Remember. Youâre gonna try and eat more like what we do...remember?
SCOTT eats more risotto.
SCOTT: I donât like mushrooms.
LISA: Theyâre only small ones.
SCOTT: Mushrooms are poisonous.
LISA: Not these ones.
SCOTT: How do ya know?
LISA: Theyâre from Marks and Spencer. Go on â try some.
He does so. Silence.
SCOTT: I can make chips meself.
DANIEL: Can ya? Thatâs handy...handy to know, eh Lisâ. Tell ya what...next time we make chips, you can be in charge, eh Lisa...canât he?
Silence as SCOTT attempts to plough on through the meal. LISA is pleased that he is having a go.
SCOTT: Whereâs Leo?
DANIEL: Gone to his nanâs mate. He sometimes goes on a Friday.
SCOTT: Where does she live?
DANIEL: Maghul...
