Lizzie Snoopes in Dystopia
Prepare for a wild ride through the winding lanes of middle-aged suburbia. This time, our two divorcees are trapped on a boat in a murky corner of East London. Oh, the folly of it all!
Attempting to escape the depths of the Thames, they find themselves ensnared by Jonny, a heartless crook with no mercy. Oh, the horror! The pressure mounts as these poor souls realize the direness of their predicament. Their brows furrow, their minds race, and panic sets in like a swarm of bees in a jam factory.
Amid this chaotic whirlwind, clarity dawns upon our protagonists. Like a light bulb flickering to life in the darkest attics, they are reminded of their painful past intertwined with drugs. Ah, the follies of youth, dancing like mischievous imps in their memories!
Picture these two bewildered souls standing before their captors, babbling on about an unfortunate tryst with the law and a nasty little file on the computer system at the local cop shop!
But there's more to come! Listen and be bewildered, just like our middle-aged duo.

Is there anything else I can help you with?
No. Now, that will be all today. Thank you.
Are you sure? Nothing. Nothing at all.
Thank you.
Please completed the customer satisfaction survey at the end of
this call. Goodbye.
Here, I got my eye on this Subaru. EV superstar, lime green it is. Let me show you a picture. Goes from nought to a hundred in seconds. I was planning on bringing my bird to Bognor, staying in a nice hotel, over there on the seafront.
I see Five stars, all in?
Yeah, with spa treatment. Keep her sweet if you know what I mean.
Oh sure.
Oh, and a stack of credit cards, I gotta pay off too.
No more. Not until you keep YOUR side of the bargain.
Yeah, right. How do I know it won't go up in smoke?
We had an agreement. It's a matter of trust, old boy. On the other hand, if you try to get clever or send someone in pursuit, I'll reverse the code
and put my little angel off to sleep. Your account would be wiped clean, POOF. So what's it to be, Charlie Boy?
RIGHT, here's what we do.
Well, what's the plan?
Says he wants it to look real. Just tie him up.
Yes, Yes and yeah, Yeah. Bash. Bash him over the head with Not too hard. Not too hard with the old flask, over there. This one here. He wants us to bash him over the head with the flask. This one sitting on his desk, is it?
Yeah, not too much to ask is it?
Not at all. I'd be delighted.
Yeah, but not too hard. Let me finish the coffee. Oh, take my uniform or else you'll never make it out of the yard. Oh, and you better tie me up good and proper. Make it look real.
Ladies. Look away!
But how are we to tie you?
Mm. Here, try this. 44 g. It ought to be enough rope.
Mhm. Ingenious.
Millie, That's your bra!
Needs must Lizzie!
And they dropped like two hanged men. Extra lift. Cost me a fortune
All in a good cause.
His uniform is too small for you, Reg. What a squirt.
Yes A bit of a dilemma. A bit of a draught really around the old GOOGLE, google, you know, and trousers only come up to the calves.
Hurry up, I'm freezing. Give me something to wear!
Take my skirt I'll wear the pants.
Okay. The pass. Charlie's Security Pass! Quick, Quick, quick! Good. Hallelujah! Just plain old Q code. I've forgotten how cheap this unit really is. No OCCKIT? Thank the Lord.
OCCKIT?
It scans the eyeball and checks the brainwaves for lies and cover ups. Reggie knows all about it. He invented it back in the day before he became a hacker.
Hurry along. There's no time to waste.
You're like a herd of buffalo. Calm down. Walk slowly. Walk slowly.
Make your mind up a minute ago you said to hurry?
Yes, yes. But not like that, to draw attention. And that's the last thing we want.
Single file, please. Single file. Head up, Shoulders back. Be dignified like soldiers of the highest rank.
Where to now?
To the van, of course, But where is it? My eyes fail me.
Put your specs on, dummy. It's over there. Next to that boat deck.
Get in quick!
Ouch! Goddamn roof. I have a bump the size of a golfball in one minute!
Blimey, don't they ever clean these vans? Stinks of onions.
Sssh! Keep it down! Someone's coming.
Excuse me. Where do you think you're going with THAT VAN?
