Épisode Cauchemar au Maroc S06E01 - Skins Saison 6

On retrouve Alo, Mini, Nick et Liv sur des mobylettes dans le désert marocain. Ils crient, roulent à fond. C'est Alo qui est sensé les mener là où ils doivent aller, mais la carte dont il se sert est un vieux morceaux de papier sur lequel il a dessiné quelques traits. Alors que Mini l'engueule, il en profite pour jeter un coup d'oeil à sa poitrine, ce qui lui vaut encore plus de remarques cinglantes. Liv se met à crier car elle a une bestiole dans son haut de maillot de bain. Un avion passe au dessus d'eux et les garçons décident de suivre sa direction.

Devant l'aéroport, Rich et Grace se prélassent au soleil. Rich est dans un t-shirt rose avec un coeur, complètement à l'opposé de son style habituel. Ils s'embrassent. Un jeune homme, qui parle en français, invite Grace à lui montrer les alentours, en ce moquant de Rich, le traitant de travesti.Sur ces paroles, Alo et Nick arrivent, Alo lui saute dessus, et Mini et Liv arrivent, ils se serrent tous dans leurs bras, les vraies vacances commencent. 
Ils prennent une voiture pour se rendre jusqu'à la villa, tout en fumant et en criant. Mini remarque que Alo semble plutôt excité.

Ils arrivent à la villa mais ce n'est pas vraiment ce qu'ils croyaient. L'endroit est délabré. Alo se déshabille et cours vers la piscine, il saute et s'étale par terre: la piscine est vide. Rider arrive de la villa, et c'est à lui que Mini s'en prend pour l'état de l'endroit. Mini finit par lui mettre une gifle.

Plus tard, avec de gros sachets de shit qu'ils ont trouvé sous le sol de la cuisine, et des bang, ils sont tous installés au bord de la piscine. On entend le klaxon d'une voiture, qui entre dans l'allée. C'est Franky et Matty, qui sont en train de se disputer violemment. Ils arrivent devant leurs amis en se disputant, tout le monde est ébahi. Franky part de l'autre côté de la villa, les filles la rejoigne. Elles se serrent dans les bras les une et les autres.

Les garçons sont dans la piscine vide, Alo est nu et Nick, debout sur une échelle, l'arrose avec une bouteille pour le laver, ils rigolent. Alo ne s'est pas rendu compte que les filles sont revenues, alors il se retourne, et se détourne aussitôt, honteux.
Mini leur dit que Franky veut parler à Matty, Franky s'excuse et le largue gentiment devant les autres.

La nuit est tombé, Rich est désespéré de l'état de l'endroit, sans eau ni électricité... Grace, pour le calmer, met une magnifique robe et lui chante une chanson. Ils dansent et s'embrassent.Ils entendent de la musique.

Ils prennent la voiture et décident d'aller là d'où vient la musique, c'est Alo qui, à pied devant la voiture, les mènes jusqu'à une magnifique villa. Ils sonnent à la porte, c'est un jeune garçon blond qui ouvre la porte et Franky demande s'ils peuvent entrer.
La fête bat son plein, ils dansent et boivent. Le garçon et Matty regarde tous les deux Franky danser. Matty la rejoint, l'interrompt dans sa danse, à son grand mécontentement. Mini surprend Alo en train de fouiller dans les vestes des gens.

Matty discute avec Franky, elle esquive son bisou. Matty ne comprend pas pourquoi elle est si distante alors qu'ils ont passé du bon temps. Franky lui dit qu'elle s'est ennuyée et qu'elle n'en peut plus. Elle repart. Dehors, elle croise le garçon blond. Il la drague, ils discutent puis ils dansent ensemble.

Le lendemain, Mini se réveille à leur villa, dans un lit avec Franky et Liv. Elle sort dans le jardin, découvre un petit robinet, le tourne, l'eau coule enfin dans la piscine, elle en profite pour se doucher.
En serviette de bain, elle va dans la chambre d'Alo. Elle s'approche de lui, s'assoit sur le lit, et l'embrasse. Alo est surpris, il se pince pour être sur qu'il ne rêve pas et Mini l'embrasse à nouveau.

Rich et Grace sont allongés dehors, Grace lui dit qu'elle est vraiment heureuse et l'embrasse. Tout le monde se prélasse au soeil ou joue dans la piscine. Les filles sont sur les transats, Nick discute avec Matty au bord de la piscine, il a l'air désespéré.
Quand Liv parle à Franky de lui nuit passée, elle le prend mal et dit qu'il ne s'est rien passé. Grace lui dit qu'elle devrait être claire avec Matty, ce qui énerve Franky. Alors qu'elle s'en va dans la villa, le garçon blond, Luke, et son ami Jake, arrivent. Ils commencent à s'embrouiller pour une histoire de drogue qu'ils auraient caché là avant leur arrivée, et d'argent. Luke ne veut pas la récupérer mais en contre partie leur demande de venir à une fête sur la plage.

Ils se rendent à cette fameuse beach party, dansent avec tout le monde, boivent, fument... Grace et Rich sont allongés sur le sable, Matty part dans son coin.
Luke est au téléphone, on voit deux garçons arriver en voiture à la villa délabrée et récupérer la drogue, que le groupe avait caché sous les matelas.

Liv va a la rencontre du jeune garçon français qui avait parlé à Grace le jour de leur arrivée. Elle l'invite à danser, mais ils partent en courant vers la mer.

Luke rejoint Franky. Il lui dit que la vraie vie, c'est maintenant, et qu'on ne connait jamais les gens, les choses. Qu'il fait faire ce que l'on veut quand on veut. Il lui demande de partir avec lui, loin.

Mini croise Alo aux toilettes. Elle lui dit que ce qui s'est passé n'est jamais arrivée. Alo lui dit qu'il veut recommencer, Mini et hésite puis lui dit que personne ne doit savoir, et on voit Alo se baisser.

Jake rejoint Matty au bord de la plage. Il lui propose un marché: Luke ne touchera pas à Franky si Matty va jusqu'à Marrakech vendre la drogue. Ils se frappent, Jake repart.

Liv se ballade avec le garçon, ils s'embrassent. Il lui qu'elle devrait faire attention, à propos du garçon qui propose de la drogue. Il lui dit que Luke est très dangereux, qu'elle ne doit pas s'approcher de lui. Elle lève la tête et voit Franky et Luke se diriger vers une voiture.

La voiture démarre tandis que Matty est dans la sienne et les regarde partir. Grace monte dans la voiture pour lui parler et il lui dit de descendre. Liv arrive en même temps en courant et en criant que Luke est dangereux et qu'il faut les arrêter. Matty démarre en trombe, s'ensuit alors une course poursuite. Franky supplie Luke d'arrêter la voiture, tandis que Liv et Grace font de même avec Matty. Mais leur voiture dérape et s'envole dans les airs.
Pendant ce temps, on voit les autres, Mini, Alo, Rich, Nick, continuer de danser. Rich cherche Grace du regard.
La voiture est écrasée et en morceaux sur le sol. Grace est étendue sur ce qui reste du capeau, évanouie, avec du sang partout. Matty se réveille et s'enfuit, tandis que Liv se réveille petit à petit.

Trois semaines plus tard, au lycée Roundview, le choeur du lycée interprète un morceau à l'occasion de la rentrée.
Doug arrive et annonce qu'il a une lettre à lire de la part du directeur David Blood, le père de Grace. Dans la lettre, il les remercie pour tous les mots de soutiens et les fleurs qu'ils ont envoyé, mais leur demande de ne plus se rendre à l'hôpital, de ne pas rendre visite à Grace, qu'il les avertira si il y a du changement. Assises ensemble, Mini et Liv sont blêmes, Alo et Nick également, et Franky, elle, est toute seule.

Nick est chez la conseillère d'orientation/psychologue, elle lui dit que si Matty l'appelle, il n'a qu'à la prévenir et elle appellera la police pour lui. Elle lui demande s'il s'agissait d'histoire de drogue, il dit que ce n'était pas de la faute de Matty. Mini le rejoint à la sortie de la salle. Elle essaye de lui remonter le moral. Il lui dit qu'il sait que Grace ira bien, que ce qui ne va pas, c'est qu'il ne comprend pas pourquoi Matty s'est enfuit, pourquoi il ne donne pas de nouvelle. Mini lui dit qu'il doir vraiment aimer Franky, et qu'elle est là pour lui, s'il a besoin de lui parler.

Nick s'assoit et regarde Franky, qui croise son regard. Il lui sourit mais elle détourne le regard, coupable. Au même moment, le téléphone de Nick sonne, c'est Matty, il né répond pas.

Rich se rend chez le chef d'orchestre. Il lui donne un CD, en lui disant que ce sont les performances de Grace, qu'elle s'était enregistrée et que lui et Alo ont fait les accords, pour qu'elle puisse quand même être évaluée. Il refuse. Rich se rend à l'hôpital et discute avec l'infirmière, qui semble être vraiment désolée de ne pas pouvoir le laisser entrer. Il lui laisse les fleurs et le CD.
L'infirmière entre dans la chambre, Grace est plongée dans le coma, elle lui parle tout de même, en disant que son copain est adorable. Elle met le CD dans la chaîne hi-fi, et c'est la chanson que Grace avait chanté à Rich qui est lancée.

Franky est toute seule et pleure.

Morroco, In the desert.

Mini: All right, Ginger Minge? Which way?
Alo: Yeah, I-I think this map might be a bit shit.
Mini: This isn't a map. It's a multiple choice test for retarded twats.
Alo: Yeah, I confuse easily.
Mini: Yeah... You find the fucking airport Alo, and I'll check to see if my tits are still there.Teamwork, right?
Alo: Yeah.
Liv: Uh, fuck! It's moving! Oh, shit! They're all over me! Fuck! Oh, fuck!
Mini: For fuck's sake.
Liv: Oh, my God - get them off me!
Mini: Chill out! What the fuck's going on, OK? Stop moving, stop moving OK, OK, OK?
Liv: Get it! I think it's in here.
Mini: Just stop moving, let me check.

Plane's noise.

Nick: Say it.
Alo: Follow that plane!
Mini: Oh, fuck! You tossers!


At the airport.

Rich: Everyone seems friendly.
Grace: Honestly Rich, do you have to wear your cousin's hand-me-downs?
Rich: Look, I'm not gonna buy clothes I'm not gonna wear again.
Grace: Your cousin's gay, right?
Rich: Rufus? No! He's just imaginative.
Grace: Right.
Rich: Look, you don't get heavy metal beachwear. It's just not our scene. What was that for?
Grace: Just don't change.
Rich: OK. Where the fuck is everyone!?

At the villa.

Nick: Here it is, guys - Chateau Rider.
Rich: I don't know why you had to bring so much stuff.
Grace: I don't know how people dress here. I need options.
Alo: Now, about the bedrooms... It was all decided democratically.
Rich: Yeah? How?
Alo: Mini chose her room and then we all drew lots... and... Well, you weren't here.
Rich: Right. It's not that bad... What's the problem?
Alo: You've got the penthouse. Sorry, mate, but we got you a mattress.Yay!
Rich: For fuck's sake! It doesn't even have a roof.

Liv: It is a lovely pool.
Alo: Here we goooooo!

Liv: I don't think Rider put the water on yet.
Alo: For fuck's sake, Rider, you useless bastard!
Rider: Mate. You're making a lot of noise. Get up here. I'm getting stoned like a whore in a burqa.
Alo: I think that might be a little bit racist, mate.
Rider: Racist? Or is it Ace-ist?
Mini: Oi! Rider! You said the fucking pool would be filled up by the time we got back.
Rider: You went already?
Mini: Put the water on, Rider. Otherwise I'll have to mess you up.

At the other villa.

Liv: Let's crash it man.
Luke: Silly French left the top...
Franky: Er excuse me, you speak English, right? Thank god cos we're lost.

Mini: Fucking idiot!

Matty: I'm sorry I talk too much about stuff.
Franky: It's OK, Matty. It's fine.
Matty: We were having a fucking classic summer holiday.
Franky: I know.
Matty: So what's going on?
Franky: Do we have to do this?
Matty: What? It's us. We're great together.
Franky: Is this what it's like, being with someone?
Matty: You loved it. Tunisia, the beach. Making love to me.
Franky: It gets boring, Matty. All the fucking and the talking. And... and just all the stuff. OK?
Matty: That's not fair.
Franky: What's fair got to do with it?

Luke: Hey there.
Franky: I'm sorry. I was just looking for somewhere a bit quiet.
Luke: That's cool... It's never that quiet when we're here.
Franky: We?
Luke: My mates, we like a good time.
Franky: I should go find my boyfriend.
Luke: OK. Boyfriend, sure... Where are you staying?
Franky: In the villa over the hill. It's a bit of a wreck.
Luke: Really?
Franky: Yeah, it's a bit shit. It's been empty for a while.
Luke: Tell me something I don't know, weird girl.
Franky: That's hard. You seem so wise.
Luke: OK. Then I suggest we dance our fucking dicks off.


Next morning.

Mini: Hey. What are you doing, Farmboy?
Alo: Um... Well... I suppose I was seeing if my porn app will download onto this iPhone that I nicked.
Mini: And you have no particularlevel of shame about that?
Alo: Er, no, I always steal from people who make me feel inferior.
Mini: Like who?
Alo: Well, pretty much anyone, er, especially if they're rich, good looking and having a lot of sex.
Mini: And that evens it out, huh?
Alo: Yeah, you should try it sometime.
Mini: Why don't you just try having some sex.
Alo: Yeah, don't be stupid. Who'd want to have sex with...

[Mini kisses him.]

Alo: Whoa, hang on.
Mini: If you tell a soul, I'll fucking kill you, all right? Stop pinching yourself. You're awake and it's time this ship set sail.
Alo: I'm awake. I'm awake. I'm awake. I'm awake. I'm awake. I'm awake.
Mini: Oh, my God. You've got to be fucking kidding.

Rich: This is the only room I've ever had where you have to wear sun block.
Grace: It's heavenly.
Rich: Yes, heavenly. If I die tomorrow, then I'd go happy.
Grace: What about me. I wouldn't be happy.
Rich: Oh, yeah. Well, I'd just come back and do knob jokes to cheer you up.
Grace: I'd like that. Your knob's always been a bit of a joke.
Rich: It has.But, usually, it's ready for a bit of stand-up.
Grace: Nice.
Rich: Nice.
Grace: Rich?
Rich: My love?
Grace: As long as you're here, you may as well know... I've had a number of orgasms today and right now I'm completely happy.
Rich: Don't knock it, kid.

Nick: I had to drive your truck back, last night.
Matty: Yeah, cheers. I walked.
Nick: By yourself? What's going on, bro?
Matty: She was so into it in Tunisia but then after a while... I think maybe she can't do it.
Nick: Do what?
Matty: Be with someone.
Nick: Mate, sort it out.

Liv: Where did you get to... last night?
Franky: Nowhere.
Liv: Yeah?
Franky: Nothing happened. He drove me home, that's all.
Mini: Oh, the relief!
Grace: You should sort things out with Matthew.
Franky: Yeah? Why?
Grace: Well, because he's your boyfriend and, well, last night you were acting like... a bit of a slut.
Franky: Is that what's life's all about then? Not upsetting our boyfriends? Fuck sakes!
Mini: I liked her better when she might or might not have been a lesbian.
Liv: Yep.
Mini: Oh, yeah. Right on cue.
Liv: Fucking hate this wanker.Yeah, I'd still shag him though.
Mini: You're such a massive slut.

Luke: Hi, kids.
Mini: Uh, hi, older dude.
Luke: Yeah, we just wanted to drop over.
Jake: Yeah, friendly, y'know. Anyway, we had a kicking time last night, right?
Mini: Did he just say kicking?
Luke: Yeah, yeah, Jakey's retro. Anyway, thing is, it's a bit embarrassing but you guys have got something that belongs to us.
Nick: What?
Luke: This. We thought the place was empty and we stashed it here.
Mini: Finders keepers?
Luke: I'm sorry. It's just, we owe a little cash on it.
Matty: Well, take it and fuck off then.
Luke: I tell you what, how about we chuck in some eighths to say sorry?
Alo: Yeah, or you could chuck in some ounces. I mean, we do a lot of spliff.
Luke: Yeah, yeah, sure, man.  And come to the beach party today.VIP list. We're sorted for E's. What do you say?

Liv: Come and dance with us.
Man: Ah... My friends. They will tell tales on me.
Liv: Why?
Man: I'm a God-fearing boy.
Liv: Yeah, yeah, it ain't cool.

Luke: You're thinking... Why is life so fucking predictable? You're 17.
Franky: I'm 18, actually.
Luke: You're 18, you've got to go back to school, go back to your mum and dad.
Franky: Not exactly.
Luke: It's all inevitable. It's all going to go down.
Franky: And?
Luke: You don't owe anybody anything. You owe nothing. Come with me.
Franky: Where?
Luke: Anywhere. Until we get bored.Then... whatever. This... is real life. This is it.
Franky: And we go right now?
Luke: Right now.

Alo: Whoa!
Mini: Oh, uh... yeah. It's me, Farmboy.
Alo: Coincidence?
Mini: Unhappily. No. Er, I just came to reiterate what will happen to you if you mention that...
Alo: I banged your brains out.
Mini: No, you didn't.
Alo: I fucking did.
Mini: It's never happening again.
Alo: Why not?
Mini: Well, because... Because... Well, basically you're not worthy of me. OK?
Alo: Don't you like having your brains banged out?
Mini: No-one can know, Farmboy. Oh! Ah!

Jake: Oi.
Matty: What?
Jake: Nothing. Nothing much.
Matty: So...?
Jake: We want a favour.
Matty: We?
Jake: Yeah. Yeah, Luke and me. We'd like a favour.
Matty: Why should I do anything for him?
Jake: Because, er... the girl. You've been fucking her. And now Luke's going to fuck her.
Matty: Oh, piss off!
Jake: Sit down.
Matty: Nah. Why should I?
Jake: Well, mainly because I strapped about six kilos of dope into the bottom of your truck. Not that you'll find it.
Matty: You what?!
Jake: You want the girl back? S'easy. You drive your truck into Marrakesh for us. Boom. Luke leaves her alone. Everyone's lovely again. There's an address there.
Matty: You're fucking kidding me. It's 300km away.
Jake: The roads are quiet. No cops about at this time. Safe.
Matty: What if I said fuck you?
Jake: I ring them. You know, whatever it is, www.moroccancrimestoppers. Tell them you got a load of gear strapped into your... I think you should get going.

Man: When I am lawyer, perhaps I will come to London and marry you.
Liv: Hey. Hey. Cut the plausible Arab malarkey.
Man: That's what I have to be careful of. English girls.
Liv: Everyone should be.
Man: You must take care too.
Liv: Why?
Man: There's this guy who hides drugs in holiday houses.
Liv: Yeah? Who?
Man: You found drugs, yes? He is bad. Very bad. English boy. His name is Luke. Very bad. You must not know him.
Liv: Shit!

Franky: What about my things?
Luke: What about them?

CAR ENGINE STARTS

Grace: Hey. I want to talk to you.
Matty: Grace. Not now.
Grace: You're not handling the Franky thing...
Matty: Leave me alone, OK! She's gone.
Grace: What?

Liv: Hey. Hey! Stop them! Matt, you pussy, stop them!
Grace: What? Liv!
Liv: Drive, for fuck's sake! Come on, Matty!
Grace: What's going on?
Liv: That new guy's dangerous.

Franky: Do you always drive too fast?
Luke: Don't pretend you don't love it.
Franky: What are you doing?
Matty: Come on, fucking thing!
Liv: They went that way. There they are.
Franky: Stop the car! Stop it.
Luke: This is it, kid. This is it!
Liv: Just fucking stop them!
Grace: For fuck's sakes, slow down!
Liv: Just stop the car, please!
Grace: Please slow down!
Liv: For God's sake, Matty, hurry up!

CRASH.

[Matty wakes up, and run.]


Three weeks later, at Roundview.

Music Teacher: Thank you, Marvellous Marimbas. I'd like to think Vivaldi would've been stoked had he been able to hear that. Well done, the Little Glocks, as well. Right, we can have some lunch.
Doug: Excuse me, kids. Can we have some quiet, please? Yes... simmer down, look you! Thank you. I have a letter here from the Principal, Professor Blood. I hope you'll let me read it. Dear Pupils, I want to thank you for the concern you have shown, to my daughter Grace and to me and my wife in the last three weeks. You will have heard that Grace is still not well and this is going to take some time. Obviously, we are very concerned, but I would ask that, for the present, you do not visit the hospital. I will let you know if the situation changes, and thanks, everyone, again. for their concern. Professor David Blood. There it is. I'm sure we would all like to... yes...... give Gracey... a great big... Oggy Oggy.
Music Teacher: Right, you heard the Acting Principal. Oggy Oggy Oggy!

In the office.

Josie: So... you understand this, right, Nick?
Nick: Yes.
Josie: If your brother contacts you, you come and see me and I'll call the police for you, cos I'm your Responsible Adult. Well, obviously I have my moments, but...
Nick: He hasn't called me.
Josie: They found a lot of drugs hidden in his car. Like dope, kuh-tah-mine... You know how... people get a bit upset.
Nick: It wasn't Matty's.
Josie: And your brother ran away from the accident...
Nick: I know, Jose!
Josie: If he rings, right... I mean - you would tell me if he rang you, wouldn't you?
Nick: To be honest, Josie, I wouldn't fucking tell you.
Josie: Right... Right. Right. You want to go for a few drinks?
Nick: You're a Responsible Adult, Jose.
Josie: Responsible fanny fucker!

Mini: Hey.
Nick: Hey.
Mini: Right, erm... you OK?
Nick: Not really.
Mini: No. She's going to be all right, you know.
Nick: Yeah... I know, she'll be fine.
Mini: Why did he run like that?
Nick: The stuff in his car, I... suppose. I guess he'll explain it. I guess he... got a bit obsessed with Franky.
Mini: Yeah. I... kind of wonder how that feels. Weird, I suppose. Um... this probably sounds a bit fucked coming from me but, erm... if I could help you with anything... I would, Nick.
Nick: Tell me why he doesn't ring.
Mini: Because he loves her.

MOBILE RINGS

[Later]

Music Teacher: Yes?
Rich: Erm... I'm Grace's boyfriend... Rich. Richard. Oh...
Music Teacher: How can I help you, Richard?
Rich: Right... The thing is, race couldn't complete... couldn't finish her music coursework, so, erm...
Music Teacher: Grace was very talented.
Rich: Is. She is very talented.
Music Teacher: Yes, but, er...
Rich: So that's why I've finished off her music coursework for her. She's already done the vocals, er, me and my mate, we've put some...
Music Teacher: I'm sorry, it's for Grace to pass it when she's ready.
Rich: She just needs the grade.
Music Teacher: I'm sorry, Richard. Grace has to do it.


At the hospital.

Nurse: This is no good.
Rich: Five minutes, nobody will know. What harm can it do?
Nurse: That's not the point.
Rich: So, what is the point? Can you tell me that?
Nurse: Don't go aggro on me, Richard. Her father says no.
Rich: I have to give her something.
Nurse: I'll give it to her. You go home and wait for her to ring you. OK?
Rich: Here... Tell her I did my best, and tell her that Alo helped me cos he does computer shit on his PlayStation.
Nurse: All right.
Rich: And tell her that you're a mean old cow who probably never gets laid.
Nurse: I will.

Nurse: I gotta say - that boyfriend of yours is super nice. You totally lucked out, did you not, Gracey? He says his mate helped him with it. Whatever. I guess we'll listen, beautiful.

ACOUSTIC GUITAR INTRO

(GRACE)
Shades of wine
Love keeps dancing through my mind
No, I can't escape this time
All because of you
Yesterday, love was just a word to say
Overnight a holiday
All because of you
So unreal, life was just a Ferris wheel
Till you told me how to feel
Things I never knew...

Franky is crying.


END.
