Rita:
Will they sack you.
Frank:
[lying flat on the floor] The sack? God no; that would involve making a decision. Pissed is all right. To get the sack, it'd have to be rape on a grand scale; and not just with students either. [Rita gets up and moves across to look at him] That would only amount to a slight misdemeanour. For dismissal it'd have to be nothing less than buggering the bursar.

Frank:

Rita:
Did y' bugger the bursar?
Frank:
Metaphorically.
