Episode 34: Helen Saves the Day
Michal: I told you so! Tim: Hurry up, I'm getting soaked! Helen: What's going on here? What a mess! Dad'll kill me. Michal: It's the water. Tim didn't turn off it before trying to fix the tap. Helen: Honestly Tim! You're as thick as two short planks sometimes. Michal, turn the water off. Tim, give me the spanner. I'll soon have this sorted. Tim: What shall I do? Helen: Get the mop, of course! I want this floor as dry as a bone now! Dad's coming round later to check the flat. Tim: Is he? Tim and Michal: Oh no! Helen: No, I'm just winding you up!
