Effie: Sadie, they really must go to bed now!
Sadie: Oh – just one more kiss…
Daniel: Night night, Daisy – see you soon. And you, Jessica – sweet dreams.
Sadie: Can’t we borrow them for a weekend? You could have a few days away, and –
Effie: Sadie, I’m going to check your handbag before you leave, so don’t try to smuggle them out.
Will: Honestly, I don’t know why you two don’t just have one of your own! Back in a minute…
A brief pause…
Sadie: Um – that was a little embarrassing, wasn’t it?
Daniel: D’you think so? I was just thinking it was a pretty good idea!
Sadie: Really?
Daniel: Well, yeah – we started off just having a laugh together, didn’t we? But I think we’re in it for the long run now, and I can see us with our own family in the not too distant future.
Sadie: Oh yes! I mean, not necessarily straight away – but – yes!
Daniel: I think we’d do a pretty good job of it, don’t you?
Sadie: I’m sure we would. But I’ll tell you one thing, Mr. O’Hara –
Sadie: – you will have to put a ring on my finger before I agree to have your baby. Just because your sister only got married a month before she gave birth, it doesn’t mean I’m going to follow suit! I’m far more respectable than people realise, you know.
Daniel: Oh well, if that’s how you feel about it…
Daniel: Sadie Roberts – will you marry me?
Sadie: Oh my god! Oh – er – really? I wasn’t expecting you to ask right away – really?
Daniel: Yes really! So – will you?
Sadie: Oh yes, Dan, yes! Of course I will!
Daniel: Whoah – steady on –
Sadie: Oh I love you I love you I love you – oooh!
Sadie: Sorry – I guess I got a bit over-excited!
Daniel: S’okay, I think I’ll live…
Effie: Can’t you two keep your hands off each other for five minutes?
Sadie: Oh darling – this is SO not how it looks…
