Melody - Miscommunication Over a Latin Translation
Mr. Dicks:
Now, why are you here, Ornshaw?
Ornshaw:
Because you invited me, sir.
Mr. Dicks:
And why did I invite you, Ornshaw?
Ornshaw:
Well, because I couldn't translate the Latin, sir.
Mr. Dicks:
Why, Ornshaw? Why?
Ornshaw:
Because it's a bloody silly out-of-date language do you mean, sir?
Mr. Dicks: [trying to hold his temper]
Two was it, Ornshaw... I think we'll make it four... ...And why do you think it's a... silly out-of-date language, Ornshaw?
Ornshaw:
Well, because I couldn't speak to a dead Roman even if I knew the bloody lingo, sir!

Melody - Debating the Value of Pursuing Girls
Daniel: [about Melody]
I've got to dance with her.
Ornshaw:
You're mad! What do you want to do that for? She'll only say "Buzz off!" or something. She's a bit stuck up that one. This whole girl-nonsense is rubbish. Girls are a load of snotty-nosed little so-and-so's.
