VON: He'll lead a wonderful life.
He'll raise the kids
we'd never have.
He'd be happy like we'd never be.
It isn't fair!!
Don't you ever, ever
bring me out here again.
We were having a nice
We were having
a hideous night, Jared!
I think we broke up.
Oh, mate.
You should be concerned with
patients, not members of staff.
Get a life.
You know, Jared,
we would've cancelled the opera
if we'd known
you were coming home last night.
What, and waste 200 bucks?
Well, at least you might've
let Amanda know you were here.
Why?
You're engaged.
Mum, we broke it off.
Oh, come on, everybody fights.
Look at your father and me.
Still married after all these years.
Mum, I've got to go.
Well, I'll see you tonight, then.
Tonight?
Well, it's Friday night.
Friday night's the one night a good
Jewish family should be together.
Oh, come on, Mum.
Don't be cynical.
It was different
when everyone was here.
But now you've left I want to
make sure the family stays close.
I have to drive nearly three hours
if I'm going to go to work
and come back again.
I just spent the night.
I'll see you about eight.
If Jared would bless us
with his presence
I'm here, I'm here.
You've got a mum and bub in one.
Mum came via Emergency with systemic
lupus erythematosus and mastitis.
Baby's starting to
BUZZER SOUNDS INSISTENTLY
I'll get it.
You get up to speed.
Mrs Phillips.
Who's that?
Stephanie Markham.
What's wrong? Is it hurting?
Who's Stephanie Markham?
I'm one of the nurses
looking after you, Mrs Phillips.
Is something wrong?
Well, I'm hungry.
Breakfast won't be long.
Gets later every day.
Okay. If you could
just keep it down a bit.
Can't you do something
about that baby?
Why is it in this ward anyway?
The mother's sick and she has to
have the baby with her
All night long. Cry, cry, cry.
A dummy would shut it up.
Okay.
(loud wailing)
Did she have both sides?
Hurts too much.
Is there someone who could take her?
I'll be pretty busy
for the next half hour or so
I don't just mean for a break.
I'm going to be sick for ages.
How can I look after a baby?
I want to see a social worker.
I know how bad you feel
at the moment
She'd be better off
with someone else.
Let's take everything one step at
You're not listening to me.
I don't want to keep her.
She's pretty exhausted, isn't she?
She's in a lot of pain.
The baby keeps crying.
She's been diagnosed
with a chronic illness.
She probably doesn't mean it.
Hopefully once the antibiotics
kick in she'll feel better.
What did Terri say?
She referred her to Peter to check
for post-natal depression.
Are you doing
Mrs Phillips' dressing?
I was going to set up
ice packs first.
I'll do that.
Make sure Mrs Phillips'
graft site is ready.
Sure.
She doesn't think I can't
set up ice packs?
Don't worry about it.
It's a girl/breast kind of thing.
I'd say it definitely
needs changing.
Von, can I have a word?
Mmm. After we get you back to bed.
Who's been checking that dressing?
It will be seen to shortly.
She doesn't look very happy.
Hey, come on, Lyn!
How would you like it if a patient
told you what was wrong with you?
I AM a nurse.
No, now, you're a patient.
Up you go.
Oh, here. You can change back
into your own nightie if you like.
Oh, it's clean.
Who washed it?
I did.
You're a great nurse, you know that?
No big deal.
Well, thank you.
Nice to see a bit of old-fashioned
caring for the patient.
Knowing which end of the catheter
goes under the tongue
You mean thermometer.
Yes, thermometer.
What did I say?
Catheter.
Catheter? (Chuckles)
These drugs might fix
the pancreatitis,
but they addle your brain
half the time.
My doctor thinks I drink too much.
But what's a couple of drinks
after a long day on the ward?
You don't work any more.
Okay.
There we go. All done.
How did this happen again,
Mrs Phillips?
How did this happen again,
Mrs Phillips?
My husband put water on to boil
and left the hand
My husband put water on to boil
and left the handle sticking out.
Idiot.
I think he knows
how unimpressed I was.
I mean, how stupid?
I haven't been able to see
for months.
You'd think he'd know by now.
Mmm.
Well, how is it?
It's a little wetter
than I would've liked.
We might not get 100% take on this
graft. We'll have to wait and see.
Sounds like someone messed up.
I'm not even sure I needed a graft.
Mrs Phillips
Even last week I was saying
Mrs Phillips,
it's a full thickness burn.
A skin graft was the only way
to avoid scarring.
Jared, can you swab it, please,
and keep up the daily dressings?
Jared, can you swab it, please,
and keep up the daily dressings?
Keep me informed.
Sure.
Keep me informed.
Sure.
I'll see you tomorrow.
What, that's it? That's all I get?
Who's that?
It's me - Jared.
I just have to redress this, so
if you just hold still for a while.
No wonder people complain
about the public health system.
BABY CRIES
So, have you had any visitors?
I feel like an old bag
with all these swollen joints.
My boobs are killing me.
I'm stuffed from lack of sleep.
What will I say to anyone?
I think they'd understand.
How did you get in here?
Did you drive yourself
or get a lift?
The ambos came.
I suppose they'll bill me for that.
Oh, well, I wouldn't worry
about that right now.
Do you want me to sign something?
What for?
So you can take the baby.
I can't take your baby
for you, Tracey.
Then what are you doing?
I'm a psychiatrist.
I counsel people.
I didn't ask to see a shrink!
It's important to talk about
I'm sick of talking!
I'm sick of talking!
Just get me someone who'll listen!
Just get me someone who'll listen!
(continuous howling)
Ah, Mrs Brown.
Mrs Brown?
Yes, yes!
Sorry. You're in the wrong bed.
Am I?
Take a few minutes.
I'm fine.
Which is my bed?
That one there.
Of course.
Of course.
Ah, Connor, I'll do Lyn's obs,
you can do Kate's, alright?
No problem.
When I was a ward nurse we used to
have brandy we could give patients.
I don't suppose
No. I can't help you there, Lyn.
DISTRAUGHT CRYING
Oh, there's that poor
little mite again.
Why isn't it in the nursery?
They all used to go to the nursery
in my day.
Mums got a break
and we could keep an eye on them.
I don't know why
they changed that system.
They changed it because
mothers would get home
They changed it because
mothers would get home
and not have a clue what to do.
And not have a clue what to do.
Besides, it helps the bonding.
Oh, yes, the famous bonding process.
Don't get me started.
Well, it's true.
Well, our generation didn't know
anything about the "bonding process"
and it didn't seem
to do us any harm.
(dry) Yes.
She's very desperate.
Angry, frustrated.
But how much is due to the lupus
and how much is PND?
It's difficult to say.
Do we encourage her
to look after the baby
or do we accept the fact
that she can't?
I can't force her to talk to me and
I can't make a call until she does.
Get her off! OW!
We'll try again later.
I don't want to try again.
Let's calm down.
Want to try the other breast?
NO!
I told you it'd hurt!
Get her out of here!
Just get her out of here!
Calm down for me.
Okay?
Now, would you like to go
for a walk with Jared?
Get some fresh air?
We've got to get her breast feeding.
Jaz, chase up some cabbage leaves.
Make sure they're really cold.
Maternity should have some.
If not, try the kitchen.
Cabbage leaves?
Yep.
What's with cabbage leaves?
Secret nuns' business.
They're the right shape,
they're cold.
And the chlorophyll is soothing
on engorged breasts.
Got it.
I might give her a bottle of water.
Keep her quiet without
filling her up too much.
Can you find a lactation nurse?
Can't anyone shut that kid up?!
How are the rest of us meant to get
better with this racket going on?
We're doing what we can.
Which is not enough.
I'll help you back to bed.
That woman is hard work.
Yeah, tell me about it.
Do you know her?
Yeah. A while ago in Outpatients.
Yeah. A while ago in Outpatients.
Then you know what she's like.
Her condition only excuses so
Then you know what she's like.
Her condition only excuses so much.
Funny thing is,
she isn't really blind.
What do you mean?
There's nothing physically wrong
with her eyes.
In one sense,
she's not blind at all.
There it is.
Hello.
Who's that?
It's Dr Morrison, Barbara.
I'm a psychiatrist.
You saw me months back
in Outpatients.
It's alright,
I'm not here to hassle you.
Although I was upset when you didn't
return after our first appointment.
I'm here for a skin graft, Doctor.
Yes, I'm aware of that.
I just thought I'd let you know
I have some time this afternoon
if you wanted to pick up
where we left off.
Well you let me know then.
Apparently she was referred
to him a month ago.
So, it's all in her head?
Can she see, or is it a con job?
No, not entirely.
She suffers from a disorder
called hysterical blindness.
Certainly hysterical.
It's a reaction to something she
found too shocking to deal with.
It's a reaction to something she
found too shocking to deal with.
Why weren't we notified?
Would've been a big help.
Why weren't we notified?
Would've been a big help.
Slipped through the system.
Two sets of notes -
ours had nothing on them.
Typical. If Peter hadn't come in
we'd never have known.
But she thinks she's blind and
we have to treat her that way.
So, it's not like she's pretending?
I reckon it's subconscious.
I wonder what she saw.
You should get a bit of energy back
once the antibiotics work.
Who knows?
Maybe it'll change things.
Why? Why do you think
it'll change anything?
I I don't know.
I suppose I thought
you mightn't feel so
..whatever it is you feel.
If you weren't so tired.
It's not because I'm tired.
No? Alright.
Why, then?
Not that you have to tell me.
Have you got a smoke on you?
You shouldn't smoke
with lupus, anyway.
Oh, right.
What CAN you do with lupus?
I mean, Jesus!
I had a job
and a boyfriend last year.
Now all I've got
is a disease and a baby.
And you're all wondering why
I feel like I do?
Must be pretty hard, eh?
Can we just go back now?
Yeah.
Do you want something, Lyn?
Oh, yes, my, um oh, you know.
What?
My, um my thing.
What are you looking for?
Oh, my thing
um, for doing my hair.
Your comb?
Yes!
You could probably try
a walk around the ward soon.
Trying to get rid of me now, eh?
No, not quite.
You'll want the bed as soon as
you can, I wouldn't mind betting.
Some things never change.
Although, it didn't used to be
such a problem.
I'm talking back in the 60s,
of course.
I'm talking back in the 60s,
of course.
You'd have been around in the 60s.
You'd have been around in the 60s.
Just.
In any case, in those days,
if a doctor felt another day
or two in bed would help someone -
they stayed in bed.
You could always
find a bed somewhere.
Yes, you could.
It was just a matter of
the proper organisation.
Right. Back in a sec.
Oh, no, wait.
I will be back later.
Okay?
I always found the time
to talk to my patients.
It's funny how she remembers
the good old days,
but forgets those
other little things.
Well, you try knocking back
cocktails every afternoon
and see what it does to your brain.
Do you think that's all it is?
Yeah.
I reckon it's more than that.
Oh, it's the grog, Connor.
Hey, we could stick with nursing
and let the doctors diagnose.
That's one thing
Lyn was right about.
I thought you two got on
like a house on fire.
Yeah, well, it gets a bit boring
when every day for two days
the conversation
only stays on nursing.
That was her whole life, Von.
Even so.
What are you going to
talk about when you quit?
I've got lots of other interests.
And I know I won't be knocking back
three gin and tonics in a row.
Well, you might when you quit.
I don't think so.
What?
You're just like her, aren't you?
Don't be ridiculous.
When can I see a social worker?
We're seeing what we can do.
How's the pain?
Yeah, better.
Except I smell like coleslaw.
I was always told
babies came from cabbages.
That'd make it a lot easier.
Let me know if she wakes.
I'm glad you decided to come,
Barbara.
You're not going to tell me I've got
hysterical blindness again, are you?
I'd like to know how you feel.
About what?
Oh, anything.
Things, people.
This is ridiculous.
It's alright.
Do you think I chose
to be like this?
You seem very stressed, Barbara.
Oh, aren't you a genius?
I'm blind, Dr Morrison.
I'm blind.
They said you could help me
and you haven't done a thing.
You only kept one appointment.
The problem is with my eyes.
Something is wrong with them.
How long will it take to find
an eye specialist
who can tell me what's wrong?
You want to know why I'm stressed?
That's why I'm stressed.
I really needed some fresh air.
It's a beautiful view.
Will you be here tomorrow?
You'll be stuck with me, I'm afraid.
I thought so. I'd always work
the weekends, too.
Somebody drop out?
Yeah.
Typical.
The more we say,
"Alright, I'll take that shift"
the more parties young people
seem to be invited to.
They think the ward can run itself.
Yes, I used to say that, too.
But, I never really minded.
Either I'd be at home
twiddling my thumbs,
or I'd be in here -
doing what I did best.
We know what it's like,
don't we, Vonnie?
Has your husband been to see you?
A couple of times.
Phil's a very busy man, of course.
You still angry with him?
No, he can't help being a klutz.
So, there's no anger at all there?
I just said no, didn't I?
Did you ever want any children?
What's that got to do with anything?
I'm just chatting.
I know you don't have any.
I'm just chatting.
I know you don't have any.
I wondered if that
was a mutual decision.
I wondered if that
was a mutual decision.
Well, it hasn't been easy,
I'll grant you that.
Was Phil supportive?
It was his problem.
Oh.
Not that he ever seemed
overly devastated, I have to say.
I always wanted a child
much more than he did.
In fact, there was a time
when I would've given anything.
But, it wasn't to be.
God's will.
That must've been hard for you,
not having anyone to lean on.
I had Dad.
Your father?
That's who I call Dad.
Who do you call Dad?
You must've been
very close with him.
Mmm.
How long is this going to go on for?
Well, not much longer.
Another five minutes or so.
Would you say you were close to him?
Barbara?
What?
Do you get upset
when you think about him now?
No.
Has he been in to see you?
Why should he?
I can look after myself.
I'm sure he's got lots of things on.
Have you seen him
since you lost your sight?
Look where's this getting us?
What are we talking about him for?
I'm the one with the problem,
aren't I?
If you want to see him, you can
If you want to see him, you
Oh, forget it, just forget it!
Just forget the lot of it.
Forget everything.
Nurse!
I want to go back!
(sobbing)
Oh, Steph, it suits you.
It doesn't. Not yet.
Hello.
You're so cute.
Oh, yes, you are.
You won't think that
after your shift.
Who's the mum?
Tracey. Room one.
You're looking after her.
And this is Kim.
Mum wants to give her up.
Oh, it's alright.
Aunty Bron's going to
take care of you.
Should we take her back
or give Tracey a break?
They need a holiday from each other.
We could park her in Terri's office.
Sssh.
All set?
(loud) Is that the little baby
Sssh.
It's okay, Mrs Brown. She's fine.
Oh, good.
Poor little poppet.
Guys, I've got to
duck to the pharmacy.
Yeah, okay.
Can you give me a hand
getting Mr Koski into a bath?
Do I have a choice?
No.
Then I'd love to.
Hi. I'm Bronwyn.
I'm looking after you
for the rest of the day.
I've just taken out your IV
because your temp's right down.
We'll keep you on
antibiotic tablets.
We'll keep you on
antibiotic tablets.
Should help you sleep better.
Should help you sleep better.
Where's Kim?
Sister Sullivan's office.
If she needs a feed
we'll bring her in.
This way you can sleep.
She won't wake you up
every time she stirs.
Good girl.
(heavy breathing)
UNSETTLED MUSIC
Hey, I got a postcard from Bob.
"Dear everyone.
Hugs and kisses all round with a big
juicy kiss to Connor, that hunky"
Give me, give me, give me.
Guys, settle, settle.
"Gone fishing. Bob."
That's a veritable essay.
I've got another one just for me.
Give us a look.
Make yourself useful.
His T cells are up.
Yeah?
He's complaining a lot,
but he's really happy.
Silly bugger.
Ow!
Damn, I cut myself.
You right?
My hands.
Should I call the trauma unit?
You should.
I may never operate again.
Come on.
You can't be serious?
I don't see the problem
in asking Peter to look at her.
Because it's a waste of time.
And I don't see where you, a nurse,
think you can diagnose
better than a doctor.
KIM CRIES
There she goes.
Shouldn't someone see her?
Okay, Lyn. It'll be alright.
Don't worry.
You're fighting and bubba's crying.
It'll be okay.
Here
Von, it's more than alcohol, okay?
Stop playing doctors.
PHONE RINGS
Doesn't anyone but me
hear the phone around here?
So, what's the diagnosis?
I think you're going to live.
Good, because I'm going to sue.
When you finish playing doctors
can I see you outside?
I need a referral.
Yeah, sure.
Is Kim okay?
I thought I heard her crying.
I don't know. I just got back.
Your mum called AGAIN
and it sounded urgent.
It always does with her.
I told her you'd call her back.
I will, I will. Back in a sec.
What?
I saw you coming back.
Thought you might want something
before I knock off for the day.
Sure?
I just went to the loo, alright?
Tracey
Can't I even go to the toilet?
We're supposed to collect urine
for 24 hours, remember?
Oh, yeah. Sorry.
Gidday, gidday.
That was a quick nap.
Couldn't get comfy.
A bit hard, you know.
Your breasts?
Yeah.
Are they sore?
You should give
breast feeding another go.
I know you don't like it,
but the antibiotics are working,
you're feeling stronger,
not so tired.
Yeah, I know.
Okay.
Did we find a lactation consultant?
Yeah.
You track her down and I'll take
..I'll take where is she?
She was just there.
Oh. Hi. What's up?
Ah, we left Kim here
about 20 minutes ago.
Where is she?
Ah dunno.
I mean, this is ridiculous!
We can't have just lost a baby!
I want her found NOW!
We don't know what's happened.
There's every chance she's still
in the hospital somewhere.
She wasn't gone longer than five
or ten minutes before we realised.
We've got everyone looking for her.
I'm sure we'll find her.
Tracey?
Hey.
Oh.
I suppose I ought to
express then, hey?
STEPH: It's my fault,
I'm the one in charge.
We all thought Jaz
would be around.
It's not Jaz's fault!
I'm not saying it's Jaz's fault.
Can we do this later?
If someone wanted a baby, they
wouldn't look in a general ward.
It's unlikely to be
someone off the street.
It's unlikely to be
someone off the street.
I hate to say this,
but shouldn't we consider
I hate to say this,
but shouldn't we consider Tracey?
No.
Why not? She doesn't want the baby.
If you'd seen her reaction
when I told her she was missing.
She didn't flinch.
So what?
I don't know
I'm going to check on her.
Yes. Yes.
Jared.
It's Mum, right?
Give her 30 seconds.
She'll keep calling.
Alright. Okay.
Can you make that quick?
Yeah.
Mum.
Ah, darling!
Did I give you a time for tonight?
I'll probably be late, okay?
This one.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Mum, what are you doing?
Darling, I'm with a client.
I'll probably be late tonight.
The rest of the family
will be ready to eat at eight.
We've got a crisis in here.
Can't someone else handle it?
You're only a nurse.
I'll see you tonight, right?
No later than 8.30.
Bye.
Given your drinking history
over the last few years,
I'd say that was the cause
of the pancreatitis.
I have never been a binger.
Well, you don't have to be.
Four or five drinks every day,
over a prolonged period
Executive drinking
they call it these days.
Still, we're here to talk about
the problems you've had
remembering things lately.
Yes, I know I'm getting
confused a bit.
I'm a bit of a duffer sometimes.
I suppose that's having
one too many as well, is it?
Well, it could be.
I'd like to do some memory tests.
See if we can get a clearer picture
of what's going on.
Alright, just relax.
I'll just ask a couple of questions.
Nothing tricky.
Do you know what the date is today?
Friday.
No, not the day - the date.
Ah, the tenth.
Do you know the name of
the Prime Minister?
Is it the tenth?
Ah, no.
That's okay. We'll move on.
Alright.
What was the question?
Do you know the name of
the Prime Minister?
Not in 12 or 13, Terri.
We'll check fire escapes.
Check all cars leaving the hospital.
Anything?
Not down there.
Double check the rooms.
Yeah.
Let me know if Security calls.
SIREN BLARES
I'd just
I'd slipped out for a smoke,
that's all.
That's why I was creeping around.
You don't think I had
something to do with it?
No.
You do.
Well you've been saying all day
how you don't want to keep her,
and, you leave your room
and she disappears, you know.
She's my baby, Jared.
How can anyone think
I'd hurt my little girl?
I didn't want to hurt Kim.
I wanted to give her away because
I knew I wouldn't be a good mum.
What if some crazy's just come in?
You read about that stuff,
sickos who just want a baby.
They wouldn't hurt her, would they?
Would they?
No.
It's a classic case of
early onset Alzheimer's.
Are there any more tests you can do?
We can do a PET scan to confirm it,
but there's little doubt.
She'll need all the support
she can get.
Does she realise
what you've diagnosed?
Well, she was a nurse, Von.
How does it feel?
There's plenty of time.
Will it stay now?
It'll stay.
You'll be fine.
Hello, Vonnie.
Such a lovely lemon smell.
Did the hospital wash this?
No, I did. Remember?
Yes, of course I remember.
How'd you go with Dr Morrison?
He asked me a few questions.
Silly questions.
A bit of a waste of time actually.
Doctors didn't go around wasting
people's time in our day.
Did he say why he was
asking you these questions?
He thinks I've got Alzheimer's.
Have you ever heard of such a thing?
Just because my memory's
not what it used to be.
You don't agree with him?
Why, do you?
There's a lot of running around
going on here.
There's a bit of a situation,
but I think it's under control.
Sounds like someone's gone missing.
Yes, in a word.
It's the baby, isn't it?
The one who kept crying.
Yes, but don't you worry about it.
Oh, the poor girl.
I thought it went home.
No, no, it didn't go home.
Why do you think it went home?
I didn't want anything
to happen to her.
I was just so mad
Did you look at her mouth?
She's got my mouth.
Do you think, when she grows up,
she'll be like me?
If she's lucky.
If she does, she'd better get used
to being on her own, then.
No-one's going to understand her.
Except me.
I'll know what she's on about.
It'd be cool, I reckon.
Her and me doing stuff together.
If she doesn't come back,
what am I going to do?
Hey, uh, get Terri.
I think we've just found her.
Terri, it's Jaz.
Can you remember,
before you saw me this afternoon,
you took a little baby for a walk?
The baby.
Yes.
Yes, poor little mite.
Yes, yes, I know.
Um, but where is she?
Whereabouts did you leave her?
Well, I heard her crying and
what's happened to her?
Well, you see,
we can't find her, Lyn.
Can you remember where you put her?
N no no I must've
It's alright.
I can't
It's alright, Lyn, it's alright.
It's okay.
It's okay, Lyn.
I can't push her any more, Terri.
The harder I push her, the longer
it'll take for her to remember.
Look, Kim is 12 weeks old
and she's sick, for God's sake.
We can't just stand by and wait
for Lyn to get her memory back.
There's nothing else I can do.
They've got her!
Who?
Maternity.
They just realised
they've got an extra baby.
Maternity.
Where are Tracey and Jared?
Still outside, I think.
Yeah. Thank you so much. Okay.
Yep, they're coming down. Bye.
What on earth did I think
I was doing?
It made perfect sense.
It was very good nursing.
Come on, a baby was in distress
and you took it to Maternity.
That's the correct procedure.
She was well looked after there.
Is this going to
happen all the time now?
I have told you,
we're going to work it out.
It will be alright.
I can remember when I bought this
overseas, eight years ago nearly.
I can't remember this morning.
Lyn.
It'll be alright. I know.
It isn't the end of anything.
Right? It can be delayed
for a long time.
There are things you can do.
But you are going to need someone
living with you, helping you.
You know I've got no-one, Von.
Well, let's see
what we can organise.
Let's not kid ourselves, eh?
NURSE: Mrs Brown,
back to the ward now.
Von, are you alright?
Are you worried about Lyn?
All those years.
Working hard
looking after other people.
She did the right thing.
What's it all for in the end, huh?
To go out like that,
all on your own.
It's a cruel enough disease
when you've got someone,
but to be on your own
Von, she'll be alright.
No, she won't!
I adored my mother.
So did my father.
He and I became very close
as a result.
Then, one day last year,
I went around there.
I'd cooked him some dinner.
When I couldn't find him downstairs,
I went up to their bedroom.
He was in there, in the bed he'd
shared with Mother all those years.
I think I could've handled it
if she was his girlfriend.
But the smeared red lipstick, the
clothes, money on the bedside table,
my mother's bedside table!
He looked up and saw me
and I screamed and screamed.
He didn't care.
I ran out.
The only clear thing
I remember feeling is betrayal.
Then loneliness.
Like I didn't know my father at all.
I'd lost my mother and my father.
Complete loneliness.
How does it feel?
It doesn't hurt as much.
But it's still kind of weird.
It's because your breasts
have settled right down.
She looks like you.
Yeah? You reckon?
She's going to be a stunner.
Yeah, better than her mum.
No!
Are you going?
I've got to have dinner with my mum.
She's feeding.
Hey, that's great.
Do you reckon she'd go for
one of these guys?
She hasn't got a teddy.
She'll love them.
Well, see you all later.
Hope you get some sleep.
I'll be right.
See you.
Just think, your mother used to
hold you like that.
That's a very scary thought.
I'm off now, Lyn.
Lyn?
Mmm?
I'm going now.
Would you like me to wash these?
Oh, thank you, dear.
You're very sweet.
You will use the lemon detergent,
won't you?
Somebody's been washing my things
and they come back
with a lovely lemon smell.
Yeah, I'll use the lemon detergent.
Sorry I'm late, Mum.
I'm just glad to see you.
We're having cocktails upstairs.
The way you carried on this morning,
I thought you might not come.
The way YOU carried on, I thought
you'd ignore me and invite Amanda.
DOORBELL RINGS
I'll get that, shall I, Mum?
Hello, Amanda.
Hi.
