I just have a bad personality

Tirade mémorable, de Ben, l'antipathique beau-frère de fleabag :


I mix up birthdays and I have an alcohol problem, just like everyone else in this fսcking country. But I am here and I do things. I pick up Jake up from shit, I make dessert for Easter, I organise the downstairs toilet, I fired the humming cleaner. You enjoyed that. I hoover the car. I put up all your certificates and I don't make you feel guilty for not having sеx with me. I am not a bad guy! I just have a bad personality, it's not my fault. Some people are born with fսckеd personalities. [...] 

The main fսcking problem here is that you don't like me. And that has been breaking my fսcking heart for eleven years. I love you. I make you laugh. I'm a douche, but I make you laugh. You said that that was the most important thing! I think the thing that you hate the most about yourself is that you actually love me.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Fleabag S2E06

The difference between a good day and a bad day

Fleabag, série drôle, rythmée, sensible et intelligente, dotée d'un artifice de réalisation qui s'avérera ne pas en être un (cette phrase cryptique est destinée à ceux qui ont vu la série).
Ecrite et jouée par l'excellente Phoebe Waller-Bridge, elle passe bien entendu haut la main le test de Bechdel, et se retrouve fréquemment dans le peloton de tête des meilleures séries ever.
La scène rapportée ci-dessous est emblématique.


“Hair is everything. We wish it wasn’t so we could actually think about something else occasionally. But it is. It’s the difference between a good day and a bad day. We’re meant to think that it’s a symbol of power, that it’s a symbol of fertility. Some people are exploited for it and it pays your fucking bills. Hair is everything.”

Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Fleabag S2E05
