1
When you won’t love and you won’t let it out, the thing comes out in the form of self-destruction.
2
The alternative to self-love, in other words, is self-destruction.
3
Because you won’t take the risk of loving yourself properly, you will be compelled… Don’t!
4
… instead to destroy yourself.
5
Don’t make me hate you.
6
Loving you is painful enough.
7
Why is that? When we meet Fleabag for the first time in season one, she’s… a mess.
8
Still reeling from the death of her best friend, Boo, all of her other relationships are in various stages of disrepair.
9
She is dishonest, impulsive, emotionally repressed, and always horny.
10
I’m not obsessed with sex… I just can’t stop thinking about it.
11
Her guinea pig-themed café is floundering, if not outright sinking… Can I get you anything?
12
No, thanks. I’m good.
13
… but she’s already asked her family for one too many parachutes.
14
I’m just going to ask her. I’m just gonna come, I’m just— Do you need to borrow money?
15
No. I can’t do it. I can’t do it. I can’t do it. I can’t do it.
16
She’s tried and failed spectacularly to get a small business loan.
17
Perv. Slut.
18
Wow. And she doesn’t seem to like anyone. Not her— —super high-powered, perfect, anorexic, rich, super-sister— Claire. Or, Claire’s husband.
19
I need to speak to Martin.
20
Martin? Martin. Martin!
21
Not her father, who pretends he doesn’t see… So, the party’s moved to the hallway. Always a good sign. Or her step-mother… To be fair, she’s not an evil stepmother. She’s just a cun— And, particularly, that is to say most especially, not herself.
22
Ah, f*ck it. I have a horrible feeling that I am a greedy, perverted, selfish, apathetic, cynical, depraved, morally-bankrupt woman who can’t even call herself a feminist.
23
And this is a problem. We could even say it’s the central problem of the first season: Fleabag doesn’t like herself.
24
I hate myself.
25
We all have things we don’t like about ourselves.
26
Perhaps we tend to say the wrong thing at the wrong time— I mean there’s nothing wrong with your— Say that again.
27
I mean there’s nothing— What?
28
I don’t know. AHHHHHH!
29
Oh my God. I always say the wrong thing. Or we don’t know how to let others take care of us— Okay. If you want.
30
Well, I don’t want to, but I think it’d be easier for everyone if I could just— Okay.
31
I mean I’ve done it. It’s done. It’s this Friday at 7:30 at mine.
32
Great. Or maybe we just really can’t stomach the thought of being alone— Do you ever feel lonely?
33
Yeah. ‘Course.
34
Fleabag is different, though. She seems to believe she doesn’t deserve love. Which likely stems from… She spends the entire season trying to get away from the question: How could she deserve love after betraying the person who loved her best?
35
Let’s never ask anyone for anything, they don’t get it.
36
Deal. Deal.
37
This question is seemingly answered when, in the last episode, Claire chooses to believe Martin’s version of events over Fleabag’s.
38
How can I believe you?
39
Because I’m your sister!
40
After what you did to Boo?
41
There’s an implicit battle taking place in the background of season one between the notion that Fleabag is, indeed, a greedy, perverted, selfish, apathetic, cynical, depraved, morally-bankrupt woman who can’t even call herself a feminist… You know I’ve really tried to be there for you through this.
42
You can't say I haven't tried.
43
Your father and I often say, when you’ve had a few drinks, you’re so like your mother.
44
I’m sorry.
45
Think you should go.
46
… and the possibility that she is a good person who made a mistake.
47
Are you okay?
48
Sad face. I’m fine.
49
Yeah, but he’s obviously not happy. Happy people wouldn’t do things like that.
50
Fair point.
51
And anyway, that’s the very reason why they put rubbers on the end of pencils.
52
What? To f* hamsters?
53
No. Because people make mistakes.
54
People make mistakes.
55
And it’s ultimately the latter sentiment that wins out. Fleabag is able to get the small business loan, revitalize her café, and begin to take herself seriously.
56
But the idea isn’t that she made a mistake and the shame caused her to hate herself.
57
Actually, it’s quite the opposite. Because, you see, she says: And sometimes I wish I didn’t even know that f*ing existed.
58
And that I know that my body, as it is now, really is the only thing I have left and when that gets old and unf*able, I may as well just kill it.
59
And somehow there isn’t anything worse than someone who doesn’t want to f* me.
60
Fleabag has found her sense of self-worth from the use of her body for longer than we’ve known her.
61
Without sex, she feels worthless. Which explains why she felt compelled to… And in this way, we see how an inability to love one’s self culminates in destruction.
62
“I give myself to you.
63
Take me. Do anything you like with me… That’s quite mad.” This is a love story.
64
When I was young, my favorite book was called What is Love?
65
by Dar Draper. It went: “What is love? What does it look like? Can I see it? Can I find it? … And where is love? Where does it come from? When is love? When should I get some? Why is there love? Why do we need it? Who is love? How can I meet it?” Fuck you, then.
66
Eric Fromm, the author of The Art of Loving, says love has four vital components—without which, the act we call love would be wholly unrecognizable. Those components are: care, responsibility, respect and knowledge.
67
It’s the responsibility aspect of love that the second season of Fleabag explores.
68
What you did at the restaurant was unforgivable.
69
I know. Thank you.
70
After all of her mistakes, Fleabag seems determined to love well.
71
—and because I spent most of my adult life using sex to deflect from the screaming void inside my empty heart. I’m good at this.
72
Although I don’t really do that anymore.
73
Even if she’s not entirely sure how.
74
I’m just trying to get to know you.
75
Well, I don’t want that.
76
And it’s not like she has a ton of great examples, either.
77
Her father squirms under the thumb of an apparent tyrant.
78
Please, please! She mustn’t see it! She mustn’t find out!
79
While her sister languishes in a dead marriage with a man who represents everything she hates.
80
Yes. You pop to the loo, pull down your knickers, and then I will come in and F* YOU.
81
Traditionally, romance absolves us of our responsibility.
82
To others and to ourselves.
83
I made a promise to a man. He gave me a ring and I gave him my word!
84
And your word is shot to hell now, don’t you think?
85
I don’t—I don’t know! I’ll find out when I talk to him.
86
My whole life is you. I can’t breathe because I’m waiting for you. You own me! You control me! I belong to you!
87
YOU OWN ME! You control me! I belong to you!
88
Love is a “get out of jail” free card. No explanations needed. It’s a reason to treat the people you don’t love badly and to be incredibly selfish.
89
Love is awful… Makes you selfish.
90
Makes you creepy.
91
Makes you obsessed with your hair.
92
Makes you cruel! Makes you say and do things you never thought you would do!
93
What is less often shown are the mundane, often tedious responsibilities which love requires.
94
The small or large acts, which can so easily become burdens, that we have the honor of performing for those we love.
95
I want to take clean cups out of the dishwasher, put them in the cupboard, at home. And the next morning, I want to watch my wife drink from them. And I want to make her feel good.
96
Responsibility isn’t easy. It can feel heavier than the whole world sometimes.
97
When we don’t know how to love, or we haven’t been in the practice of loving lately, the responsibility we’re faced with seems insurmountable.
98
Because it isn't enough to say you love someone.
99
I want someone to tell me what to believe in. Who to vote for and who to love and how to tell them… And it isn't enough to feel it either.
100
The moment you enter into any kind of human undertaking in relationship… …what an act of faith? See, you’ve given yourself up. But this is the most powerful thing that can be done—surrender. See, and love is an act of surrender to another person.
101
Kneel. Love is… Knowing how to make someone laugh, even when they want to cry.
102
Don’t make this fun.
103
Love is the sound of their voice, after they’re already gone.
104
Hi, this is Boo. I can’t come to the phone right now, but please leave me a messiagio and I’ll get back to you. Love is encouragement, when we can’t seem to pull ourselves together.
105
Buck up. Smiles. Charm. Off we go.
106
Off we go. Love is bumbling idiocy.
107
I’m not nervous. I’m being completely— Claire!
108
Oh, hi! Oh.
109
Love can mean telling a white lie.
110
No, it’s chic!
111
It’s unsalvageable! Claire, it’s French.
112
Really?
113
Love can mean going to bat for someone, even though they’re wrong.
114
Show her the reference.
115
Love is running through an airport.
116
The only person I’d run through an airport for is you.
117
Love can be more than we know what to do with.
118
I don’t know what to do with it.
119
With what? With all the love I have for her.
120
I’ll take it.
121
Love is being seen.
122
We’ll last a week.
123
What was that?
124
What? Where’d you just go?
125
What? That thing that you're doing...
126
It's like you disappear.
127
What? What are you not telling me?
128
Nothing! Tell me what’s going on underneath there.
129
Nothing! Tell me. Come on!
130
No! Tell me.
131
Nothing! THAT!
132
Nothing! I think Fleabag teaches us that, although love is hard— I can’t have sex with you because I’ll fall in love with you.
133
And, if I fall in love with you, I won’t burst into flames but my life will be f*ed.
134
You know the worst thing is that I f*ing love you… I love you.
135
I think you know how to love better than any of us. That’s why you find it all so painful.
136
–it is one of the most honorable endeavors we can undertake as human beings.
137
Learning to love develops us in every way imaginable.
138
… it takes strength to know what’s right.
139
And love isn’t something that weak people do.
140
And it starts with loving ourselves. In Fleabag: The Scriptures— Phoebe Waller-Bridge wrote: “Harry was convinced that the greatest love story we had to tell was that between Fleabag and herself.
141
I shuddered at the sentimentality of it, but I knew it was true.” Harry, Fleabag's director, played a huge role in convincing Phoebe to write a Season Two and continue Fleabag’s story of self-love.
142
There’s no perfect love, just as there are no perfect people, but if we start with the basic building blocks of: care… Look at me.
143
Listen. People are all we’ve got.
144
Respect. I loved her, but—.
145
That’s all that really matters.
146
No, I don’t think it is.
147
Knowledge. Are you okay?
148
Yeah. Tell the truth.
149
And responsibility.
150
It’ll pass.
151
We’re sure to end up with something pretty great.
152
I love you, too.
153
Here's to love!
154
TO LOVE! So, I’m just now realizing that I never introduced myself.
155
Hi. My name’s TVHead.
156
I was born with a tv for a head.
157
Kind of a miracle, if you think about it.
158
Oh my GOD. What is that?
159
I have a near-encyclopedic knowledge of all television and film.
160
Whenever I feel sad, or happy, or – Cut the cameras.
161
Whenever I feel anything, it shows on my face.
162
So when you watch my videos, you’re watching… me.
163
And I guess I just wanted to say…

「Fleabag」の背景と愛についての考察
このビデオでは、テレビシリーズ「Fleabag」の主人公が愛と自己受容に苦しむ様子を分析しています。彼女は友人の死や壊れた人間関係に翻弄され、自己嫌悪に陥りながらも、徐々に自分自身と向き合う過程が描かれています。このような感情的なダイアログは、英語の発音やイントネーションを学ぶ上でも貴重な教材です。特に「shadowspeaks」や「英語シャドーイング」の練習に最適です。
日常会話で使える5つのフレーズ
- 「I'm good.」（大丈夫です）- 断りながらも親しみやすい表現
- 「I can't stop thinking about it.」（考えるのを止められない）- 強い印象を表す
- 「Do you ever feel lonely?」（淋しいと感じることありますか？）- 深い話題を始める時に
- 「I hate myself.」（自分が嫌いです）- 直球的な感情表現
- 「How can I believe you?」（どうしてあなたを信じればいいの？）- 不信感を伝える
シャドーイングのステップバイステップガイド
「英語の発音を良くする」ためには、まずビデオを10秒程度再生して止め、そのまま真似て発音してみましょう。特に主人公の絶望的なイントネーションや、短い発言のリズムに注目します。「IELTS スピーキング対策」にも役立つのは、感情を込めて話すことです。2回目は字幕を見ながら、単語のつながり（リンキング）を確認し、3回目は完全にシャドーイングしてみます。「shadow speak」のコツは、自分が主人公になったつもりで話すことです。繰り返すことで、自然な会話力が身につきます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
