Genres: Comedy
Demolition - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Rik makes the knocking sign with his hand, in the next shot his hand is on his knee. (00:15:25)
Mike: Where's Vyvyan?
Rik: Well, he said he was going inside to water his plant. Strange that such a ruthless and sadistic maniac as Vyvyan should care for a begonia. Must have had it two years now.
Mike: And it was dead when he got it.
Rik: Yes... Still, give him his credit - he's watered it every day!
Mike: Only because he can't be bothered to go upstairs to the lavatory.
