Two pots, a caffe latte, a scotch and dry, a vodka lime and lemon, and a small antipasto with 5 forks

Waitress Elaine finds herself face to face with ex boyfriend, Rory, when he turns up to her yuppie watering hole for a drink. On her break she describes the decline of the relationship to her co-worker, and before the shift is over she is able to wreak revenge thanks to a stolen mobile phone and a cleverly procured visa card. Cast includes Caroline Bock, David Cotter and Elena Mendalis.
