It's the Lord, Lord Kitchener, live and direct,
strong from the Kitchen on Kitchen Radio.
Bad news, guys. They've gone and done it. Water in the West Wing is out.
- I repeat, water in the West Wing is out. - [church organ music playing]
Water is still available in the east, but only go if you need.
Only go if you sweat in your sleep.
Only go if your mattress is drenched.
[Kitchener laughs]
You hear me?

[woman shouting] Get out!

[Kitchener] It's time for birthday shout-outs.
Happy 45th birthday to Sherry-Ann.
Love from Todd, Neilson, and the whole family.
[banging continues]
You've got 30 minutes to send in all your birthday shout-outs.
[music intensifies]
What a fucking...
[woman 1] About time, mate.
[shouting continues]
[woman 2] Finally. Better late than never.
[man] Need to make a shower.
- [sucks teeth] - [woman 2] No water.
[woman 3] Seriously?
[Kitchener] Messages coming in. Remember that at 10:00 p.m...

[automated female voice] Isaac, after your eight-month wait,
your new Buena Vida single-occupancy flat is ready.
- [suspenseful music playing] - [motorcycle engine revving]
- [man 1] Yo, bust that door. - [man 2] Everyone together...
[Kitchener] Okay, listen, the food is coming in
on the north side of the market.
Food coming in north side of the market.
[man 3] No! We don't want money!
[Kitchener] If you've got extra tins, stay back.
It's still there. It's still there. Just wait. Wait.
[Kitchener] Only go if you need.
Only go if you need. We gotta look out for each other.
- [man 3] Take it. - [man 4] Turn it off! Turn it off!
[man 5] Take that! Take that!
- [man 4] Hey! - That's how we like it!
[Kitchener] I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
[woman] Take that.
[Kitchener] They can't stop we.
You hear me?
[unsettling music builds]
[music fades out]
[Isaac] At times like these, it's important to think about yourself.
After your transition,
your tree will spend a few weeks here in our incubator.
We call that the mourning period.
So, during that time, family can visit as much as they like.
Where you going to put me?
The trees get sent to a... ecological restoration project.
[man grumbles]
Somewhere you can, um... lay your roots.
- You don't have a clue. - Dad!
I don't want to be a fuckin' bush!
Uh, Jase, um, do you mind showing this family our selection of urns, please?
My pleasure. Could you just follow me this way, please?
[Dad] Won't have a grave to visit.
- Won't know where I am. - [softly] Yo.
You're from the Kitchen, right?
Do you really think your family wanna be here?
No.
Do you not think if they could afford to do more,
they would do more?
I wish my dad prepared me way more for his death.
'Cause it was like
one moment he's there, next minute gone,
and anything that was left around, like money or whatever, had to go
all on a funeral.
You know?
You ever been to a Nigerian funeral?
Last one I went to lasted three weeks.
[Isaac chuckling]
Exactly.
You know, imagine a nine night on top of that.
You know, it's a lot.
["Holding On" by Tirzah playing]
[Jase] What'd you say to him?
- Dad's Nigerian funeral. - [Jase chuckling]
[Jase] You're a cunt.
Well, commission ain't gonna make itself, is it?
[Jase] Serious?
Tellin' you, that's why I ain't staying in that shithole
for one second longer than I have to, mate.
"Shithole"?
- Yeah, shithole. - It's our home.
"It's our ho..." You always say that.
Bruv, keep that same energy when they drag you out kickin' and screamin'.
Yeah, but we're not doing that. They are.
Aight.
Cool.
I'm just letting you know, innit?
When shit gets real, I'm saving myself out here.
They won't get the Kitchen.
They will get the Kitchen.
- It ain't happenin', fam. - It's 'appening.
[Jase] I'm telling you.
[Isaac] It is.
I don't give a shit anyway.

"We ain't goin' nowhere."
They cut our water, they cut our supplies, and we said, "No."
"Fuck you. We ain't goin' nowhere."

Trust me. They will leave you.
Eat your fuckin' breakfast, man.
You left me.
Aight.
When I was your age, who do you think looked after me?
Go on.
Who bought you that little red bike?
I didn't even know my mum.
Real world.
But no one cares.
You're on your own.
Hey, get used to it.

[automated female voice] Hello, Isaac James.
Congratulations.
Your single-occupancy Buena Vida flat will be ready tomorrow.
Please provide proof of your ability to pay a four-month deposit on arrival.
Thank you.
Anything else we can help you with today, Isaac?
[Izi] Double occup...
Can I inquire about... double occupancy?
Would you like to change and apply for double occupancy?
Yes.
I didn't quite hear that.
[louder] Yes.
Would you like to change and apply for double occupancy?
Yes!
No need to raise your voice.
Yes.
Great news.
In order to continue with your double-occupancy application,
you will need to release your single occupancy flat. Is that okay?
Isaac.
[indistinct chatter]
Is that okay?
[poignant music playing]
You all right, Mum?
Sorry I haven't come and seen you for a while.
I'm stayin' with Izi now.
He's been lookin' after me.
I'm sorry I couldn't say anything at your funeral.
I love you, Mum.

Come on.
[Benji] Izi?
- Know where they're gonna plant my mum? - No.
Can you not... find out?
Benj, it's a fucking tree!
[calmly] A tree.
Ain't got fuck all to do with your mum anymore.
All right?
You ain't got money, they fuckin' dump you.
Yeah? That's it.
Please, man.
[Izi sighs gently]

Are you gonna go to Buena Vida?
I can't pay rent, but...
I don't even know how rent works around there.
But I can cook... um...
clean, and I will never buy anything without your permission--
[Izi] Benji, stop.
Izi?
[mouthing]
My... my mum...
she... she told me.
What she say?
She said you worked at Life After Life.
Lived in the Kitchen.
You never loved her, but... you would've loved me.
