Scenes
Will (Vincent Friell) is riding on a bus with his girlfriend, and they hear the school girl behind them (apx. 8 years old) complaining that she is busting. "I could fair go for a pee myself," says Will. In the next scene he is shown emerging from behind a bush where he has apparently peed. He says, "I really thought she was going to make it, I really did. It was so close," implying that the girl had eventually wet herself.
