Shaun: I just wanted to say thanks. This has been the best day of my life.

  • Complete Monster: Lol's father who tried to molest Lol as a child, planned to do it to her sister, Kelly, raped her friend Trev and tried to rape Lol.
  • Funny Moments: The fight between the skinheads and the biker again.
    • Complete with Flip hamming it up with the immortal line "You are all standing in the danger zone!"
