Episode 5 - Yellow Pages 28.4.04 14.<br />

SAM<br />

RUTH<br />

No, he’s not ... someone we’re<br />

looking at because he’s done<br />

something. He’s someone we’re<br />

looking at in case someone does<br />

something to him. It's<br />

Housekeeping. He sits on various<br />

committees. Boards in the City.<br />

All kinds of people cross his path.<br />

SAM<br />

He sounds important.<br />

RUTH<br />

Oh he is. Very. He’s a powerful<br />

*<br />

man. And therefore a very<br />

*<br />

vulnerable one. People who HAVE<br />

been bad tend to call his phone, so<br />

it’s tapped, as is his office.<br />

(thinks)<br />

He works so hard.<br />

SAM<br />

Is he just really ... nice?<br />

RUTH<br />

He has a PhD in economics. He was<br />

an athlete at university but he<br />

hurt his knee playing tennis in<br />

Spain in '92. A ligament. Very<br />

painful. And he's a singer. I<br />

don't know why that should make a<br />

difference to me. I just ...<br />

really like singers.<br />

SAM<br />

You have been busy.<br />

Ruth looks at Sam for a moment - there's the slight feeling<br />

from Sam's tone that suddenly puts Ruth on the defensive.<br />

RUTH<br />

Not as if I'm ... doing anything<br />

wrong. Really. Just looking at<br />

them.<br />
