Thank you.

What are you doing here?

What do you think?

Huh?

So what happened?

Nothing. Oh, tell me.

I just did. Nothing happened.

Nothing happened?

No. I've just had her on the phone.

So what does that prove?

You can't go on behaving like this.

It's my flat, isn't it?

It's incredible.

You burst in on me. I have no idea who
she is, this woman.

I never asked her for anything.

She's here to help you.

Tell me do what?

I don't need her. I don't need anyone.

She told me you'd called her a little
bit.

I don't know what else.

Maybe. I don't remember.

She was in tears.

Why, because I called her a little bit?
No, she told me that you'd threatened

her physically.

Me?

Physically?

Obviously,

she has no idea what she's talking
about. This woman is raving mad. Believe

Best if she does leave. Believe me.

Especially as, um... As what?

Hmm? Ah.

I didn't want to tell you this, but
since you must know, I suspect she was,

um... She was what?

She was stealing from me. Angela?

Of course not. What are you talking
about?

I'm telling you, she stole my watch.

Your watch?

Yes. Isn't it more likely you just lost
it? No.

I already had my suspicion.

So I set a trap for her.

I left my watch somewhere in the open to
see if she'd pinch it.

Where? Where did you leave it? I don't
know and I don't remember.

All I know is there's nowhere to be
found. I can't find it. There's your

That girl stole my watch. I know she
did.

What's the matter?

I don't know what to do.

We have to talk, Dad.

Well, that's what we're doing, isn't it?
No, I mean seriously.

That's the third one you've... I'm
telling you, I don't need her. I don't

her or anyone else. I can manage very
well on my own.

It wasn't easy to find her, you know.
This isn't easy.

I thought she looked really good. Lots
of great qualities.

And now she doesn't want to work here
anymore.

You are not listening to what I'm
telling you.

That girl stole my watch.

I'm not going to live with a thief.

Do you understand?

Have you looked under the bath?

What? Under the bath by the pipes where
you hide your valuables. How do you know

that? And tell me the truth.

I don't know. I just know. Have you been
looking inside my hiding... No.

Then how do you know that sometimes
that's where I keep my valuables? I

know. I found it by accident.

You. Dad.

Found it, then.

What? Your watch.

Oh, yes.

So you realised Angela had nothing to do
with it?

Only because I hid it, luckily, just in
time. Otherwise I'd be sitting here

talking to you with no means of knowing
what time it was.

It's five o 'clock if you're interested.

Myself, I am interested.

Pardon me for breathing.

Have you had your pills?

Yes.

Why do you keep looking as if there's
something wrong? Everything is fine,

The world is turning.

You've always been a warrior.

Whereas your sister... Where is she, by
the way?

Have you heard from her?

I'm asking you a question.

I'm going to have to move, Dad.

I'm going to have to leave London.

Really? Why?

We talked about this. Do you remember?

Ah, is that why you're so keen on this
nurse living with me? Obviously it is.

The rats are leaving the ship.

I won't be here.

I won't be able to come here every day.
You need to understand that, Dad.

Yeah.

So you're leaving.

When? I mean, my... I've met someone.

You? You mean a man?

Yes.

Really?

You don't have to sound quite so
surprised.

No, no, it's just that, I mean... You
have to admit that since, um...

James? James.

There hasn't been a lot of, um... What
does he do, anyway?

He lives in Paris.

Oh. I'm going to go and live there.

Were you in Paris?

You're not going to do that, are you?

I mean, wake up, they don't even speak
English.

So if I understand correctly, you're
leaving me.

Is that it?

You're abandoning me.

Dad.

What's going to become of me?

Honestly, this is very important to me.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be going.

I really love him.

And I can come back and see you often at
the weekends.

Yes. But I can't leave you here on your
own.

It's not possible.

And that's why if... If you refuse to
have a carer, I'm going to have to... To

what?

To what?

You have to understand, Dad.

Anne, you're going to have to what?

Is there anybody there?

Everything all right?

Who are you?

Sorry? Who are you?

What are you doing here?

What are you doing in my flat?

Anthony, it's me, Paul.

Paul?

What are you doing here?

I live here.

You?

Yes. You live here?

Yes.

You live here in my flat?

Well, that's the best yet.

What is this nonsense?

Huh?

I'm going to phone Anne.

Your daughter?

Oh, yes, thank you. I know who Anne is.

Do you know Anne? Are you a friend of
hers?

I'm speaking to you!

Do you know Anne?

I'm her husband.

Her husband?

Yes.

But since when?

Coming up for ten years.

Ah, yes, yes.

Of course, yes, yes.

Obviously.

Ten years already.

But I thought, aren't you separated?

Who? Anna and me?

Yes, you aren't?

No.

Are you sure?

Yes.

But this thing about France, wasn't she
supposed to be going to Paris too?

Hello, darling. Yes, it's me.

No, it's just your father isn't feeling
very well. I think he'd like to see you.

Fine.

Don't be too long.

She's just doing some shopping. She'll
be up in a minute.

Father.

Yes, she told me...

The other day she told me she was going
to go and live in Paris. She told me the

other day. Paris?

Yes. What was she going to do in Paris?

Well, she met a Frenchman.

I don't think so.

Yes, she did. She told me the other day.
I'm not an idiot.

She told me she was moving to go and
live with him. And I even remember

her it was a stupid idea because, you
know, they don't even speak English.

You don't know about this?

No. Oops!

What? Have I put my foot in it? Don't
worry.

She hasn't mentioned it to me, but I'm
sure she's intending to. So you don't

know about the Frenchman? No.

Oops -a -daisy.

Never mind. Shut up!

Ah, they all end up... I speak from
experience.

Do you want something to drink while
we're waiting?

Glass of water? Fruit juice?

No, it's just I was... No, it's just I
was going to say something.

Yeah. No, it's because of that girl,
that nurse.

Laura? I've forgotten the name of that
girl. Your wife insisted on handing me

over to the nurse. I mean, you know
about this as if I'm unable to manage on

own.

She told me, your wife told me that I
needed the help of this, um...

Even though I can manage perfectly well
on my own, even if she does have to go

abroad to Paris.

Your wife.

See, I don't understand why she persists
in... I mean, look at me. Just take a

look at me.

Paul.

That's right, Paul. Take a good look at
me.

See, I can still manage on my own.

Don't you think?

I mean, I'm not completely... You agree?
Of course you agree.

But her... I don't know where this
stupid obsession

comes from.

She's always been that way, ever since
she was little.

The thing is, she's not very bright.

You know, she's not very... Not very
intelligent.

She gets that from her mother.

I think she tries to do the best she can
for you, Anthony.

Oh, the best she can, the best she can,
yes.

I never asked her for anything.

I don't know what she's cooking up
against me, but she's cooking something

She's cooking something up, that I do
know.

See, I suspect she wants to put me in a
home for, um... I

have seen the signs.

But let me be absolutely clear.

I'm not leaving my flat!

I am not leaving my flat!

It isn't your flat, Anthony.

Sorry?

If you remember, you moved here. I mean,
you moved to our place while you were

waiting... For what?

For a new carer, because you quarrelled
with the last one, with Angela.

Oh, did I?

That's why you're staying in our place
while you wait.

Sir James... Paul.

Right, Paul.

So you're telling me this is your place?

Yes.

Ah, now I've heard everything.

It's me. Ah, that's you.

What's happening?

Oh, nothing much. Your father seemed a
bit confused.

Something wrong?

Ah.

What is this nonsense?

What are you talking about?

Oh, where's Anne?

Sorry? Anne, where is she?

I'm here.

I just went down to do some shopping and
I'm back now.

What did you buy?

Chicken. Does that sound good? Are you
hungry?

Yes, why not?

Here, let me have it. I'll be back soon.

Paul said you weren't feeling very well.

I'm fine, thank you.

You look... worried.

No, it's just, uh... Just what?

Hey.

I was making a cup of tea in the
kitchen.

I was alone in the flat and suddenly I
heard a noise and I came in here and

there was your husband.

Who?

Your husband.

What husband?

Well, yours, my dear, not mine.

James.

Your husband.

I'm not married, Dad.

I'm sorry.

I got divorced more than five years ago,
you remember.

Well, then, who is he?

Who?

Are you doing this on purpose? I'm
talking about him who just left with the

chicken. The chicken? Did you not hand
over a chicken to someone minutes ago?

Are you on about that?

Did you not hand over a chicken to
someone? A chicken! What chicken?

What are you talking about, Dad?

He was here just now.

I think you're mistaken, Dad. There's no
one here.

He's vanished.

Who?

The man with the chicken?

Your husband.

Why are you smiling?

Nothing. I'm sorry.

Sorry.

All this nonsense is driving me crazy.

There's something funny going on.

Believe me, Anne, there's something
funny going on.

Come sit down. Come on.

Don't worry.

Everything will sort itself out.

I don't know.

Have you taken your medication?

What's that got to do with anything?

Let's give you your medication. The
evening dose.

Then you'll feel better.

You know, it's been going on for some
time.

Strange things going on around us.

Haven't you noticed?

There was this man claiming this was not
my flat.

Really unsympathetic.

Looking, man, a bit like your husband,
only worse.

It's the best yet, don't you think? In
my flat.

He told me.

But, uh... This is my flat.

Isn't it?

Tell me, and this really is my flat.

Isn't it?

Yeah. I know.

I know.

I know. You can't imagine how difficult
it is sometimes.

The other day he didn't even recognise
me.

Oh, I know.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Well, as long as he likes her, I mean,
that's the main thing, isn't it? And to

know that he'll be happy.

Yeah.

No, that's a good idea. Yeah,
absolutely.

Hope so.

She seemed nice on the phone.

Well,

I'll let you know how it goes.

Here.

Okay.

Right. Okay,

speak soon. Lots of love. Bye.

Hello. Hello.

I'm not too early, am I? No, no, not at
all.

Come in.

Come in. Thanks.

Come in.

Thanks for coming round. It's OK.

My father's just in his room. Would you
like something to drink?

No, thanks. OK. Please make yourself
comfortable.

I, um... Yeah, so, I was telling you, my
father, I think, is quite upset by the

whole idea.

So it can cause him to, um...

I think he's quite annoyed with me.

I'm just telling you this because he is
capable of reacting unexpectedly.

And has he lived on his own up till now?

Yes, he was in a flat not far from here,
which worked, and I was able to pop in

on him practically every day.

But we've had to come to another
arrangement.

It just wasn't viable anymore. I
understand.

He's had several carers, one after
another.

He finds it difficult to get on with
them.

He has his ways.

So that's why I moved him in here with
me, but I'm finding it quite difficult

manage on my own. It's a bit much. I
have to work, and that's why I need

to help me.

Did I hear the bell?

Dad, yes.

Ding dong.

Dad, I'd like you to meet Laura.

How do you do, sir? I explained to you
that Laura was going to come by today so

that you two could meet.

Hello. Hello.

I say, you're gorgeous.

Thank you.

But I, um... Haven't we met before?

No, I don't think so. Are you sure I
have a distinct impression that I've

you before?

So, well, Laura has come round to meet
us so that she can get an idea of how

live and to what extent she might be
able to help you. I know, dear, I know

that. You've already told me a hundred
times.

My daughter has a tendency to repeat
herself.

You know, it's like it's an age thing.

Would you like a drink?

You're very kind, but no thanks.

And a party, for sure?

No? Party?

Time for the party? No, no?

Oh, hang on.

Just a moment. I'll be back.

He's gone to find his watch.

I must say, he's charming.

Yeah. Not always.

Just as I thought, time for an aperitif.

I have two watches, I've always had two,
one on my wrist and the other in my

head. Well, it's always been that way.

Now, what would you like, young lady?

Dad? Well, I'm allowed to offer, I
guess, a drink, am I not?

What would it be?

What are you going to have? Small
whisky. Well, then I'll have the same.

Two, splendid.

Two small whiskies, coming up.

And please.

It's OK, Anne, I'm not going to offer
you a drink.

She never touches alcohol, never, not a
drop.

It's true.

Never, not a drop, yeah.

That's why she seems so... So what?

Sober. Her mother was the same. Her
mother was the soberest woman I've ever

Oh, dear.

Silly.

Her little sister, that was quite a
different story.

Oh, you have two daughters? Yes, even
though I hardly ever hear from the other

one. All the same, she's always my
favourite.

She's a painter. Look, there you are,
the pirouette.

Isn't it beautiful, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

Yes.

Dazzling girl.

I don't understand why she never gets in
touch, never.

Your whisky.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Mmm.

Do you know, I give everything I own for
a glass of whiskey. Don't you agree?

Well, I don't own all that much, so...
Oh, really?

What do you do for a living?

Um, I look after other people.

Other people?

Yeah, my job is to help people who need
help.

Oh.

Sounds like one of those girls you're
always trying to dub off of me, dear.

Must be a difficult job, though, isn't
it? I mean, spending all day with one of

those... I mean, I couldn't stand it. Am
I right?

What about you? What did you do for a
living?

Oh, I was a dancer.

Were you? Yes.

Dad? What?

You were an engineer.

What do you know about it?

Yes, tap dancing was my specialty.

Really? You seem surprised.

Yeah, a little bit.

Why, don't you believe me? You find that
difficult to imagine?

Of course.

I... I've always loved tap dancing.

You really?

Well, I'm still great at it. I'll show
you.

Totally good.

Why are you laughing?

Sorry.

I know, I know. She reminds me of...
Who?

It's Lucy, Lucy when she was younger.
Lucy?

Yeah, my other daughter.

That's right.

There's a resemblance, don't you think?
Yeah, maybe.

Yes.

Yes.

Her unbearable habit of laughing
inanely.

I had you there, didn't I?

You see, the situation is very simple.

I've lived in this flat for some time
now.

I'm extremely attached to it.

And I bought it more than 30 years ago.
Can you imagine?

You weren't even born.

Yes, it's a big flat, very nice. It's
very big.

And I've been very happy here.

Anyway, my daughter is very interested
in it.

What are you talking about?

You see, my daughter is of the opinion
that I cannot manage on my own, so she's

moved in with me ostensibly to help me
with this man she met not long ago, just

after her divorce.

Bad influence on her, I have to tell
you.

What are you talking about, Dad?

So now she would like to convince me
that I really cannot manage on my own.

And the next stage will be to send me
away. I don't know.

Obviously, it would be a much more
efficient way of getting hold of my

But it's not going to happen that way.

Sorry, dear.

I may as well tell you now.

I'm not leaving this flat any time soon.

I'm going to outlive you.

Both of you.

I don't know about you, but my daughter,
yes.

In fact, I'm going to make a point about
it.

I'm going to inherit from her, not the
other way around.

And on the day of her funeral, I shall
give a little speech to remind everyone

how heartless and...

Manipulative she was. I'm so sorry about
this.

Why? She understands perfectly.

You're the one who doesn't understand.

See, I've been trying to convince of her
months that I can manage very well on

my own.

But she refuses to listen.

I don't need any help from anyone.

And I'm not going to leave my flat.

All I want is for everyone to fuck off.

Having said that, it's been a great
pleasure.

Au revoir.

Toodle -oo.

I'm really very sorry about this.

You weren't kidding when you said he had
his ways.

I'm really sorry.

Don't be. That sort of reaction's quite
normal.

He'll be all right.

Do you think?

Well? What?

You go well?

Um, yeah.

Yeah, I think so. She said she was going
to start tomorrow.

Well, here.

Yeah. Good.

Yeah, so we'll see how the first day
goes.

I was really worried that it wasn't
going to work, but in the end it was

He was charming.

Oh, there you are, you see.

He really turned the charm on for her.
You should have seen him.

He told her he'd been a dancer.

A tap dancer.

Yeah.

I don't know how to describe it to you.
I think she's really going to be able

to... I think they're really going to
get on well together.

And then he said that she reminded him
of Lucy.

Really?

Why, are you intrepid?

What's the matter with you?

If it went well, that's good news, isn't
it?

Yes, yeah.

So?

What's the matter with you? Tell me.

It's just... What?

Just now when I came back with the
chicken, he didn't recognise me.

I don't know, he just did something to
me.

I understand.

Finding it really hard.

Give me a hug.

I saw it in his eyes, he didn't know who
I was.

It was like I was a stranger to him.

You'll have to get used to it.

I can't manage to.

I think you can.

And you're managing really well.

Oh, Dad.

Hi. Dinner will be ready in five
minutes. Does that suit you?

Yes, dear.

Suits me fine.

Suits me fine.

Hello.

Are you hungry?

Yes, yes. But, uh... We have guests.

This evening?

No, why?

Oh, nothing.

Nothing.

Everything all right?

You had a good day?

Yeah, very good.

Laura came by, didn't she, Dad? Laura
came by just now to see us. Who?

Laura, the young woman who came to see
us just now.

And then we went to see the doctor.

Has anyone seen my watch? I seem to have
lost it.

Again? Yeah.

Well, you probably put it in your
cupboard, don't you think, in your

place? What cupboard?

I don't know what you're talking about.
I really don't know what you're talking

about.

What cupboard? There's no cupboard.
There's no cupboard, is there?

Could we be more discreet?

Have you looked in your cupboard?

I've just come from there. It's not
there. I must have lost it somewhere.

Or else it's been stolen. No, it hasn't.
What do you mean, no, it hasn't? There

must be something. I can't have flown
away.

Do you want me to go and have a look?
Very much so, because it is a bother. I

worried. It's very worrying. I mean, I'm
losing all my things.

Everyone's just helping themselves.

This goes on much longer.

I'll be dark naked and I won't be able
to tell what time it is, please.

Why do you have the time?

Almost eight. Oh.

That's late.

Shouldn't we be sitting down for dinner
now?

Yes, five minutes, when the chicken's
ready.

We're having chicken this evening?

It's the one Anne bought.

You know, it's pretty.

You watch it.

It's very pretty.

It's... Yeah.

Is it yours?

I mean, is it yours?

Mm.

Yes.

It might have seated, sir.

Sir, apparently it went very well today.

Oh, yes.

Very well, very well.

Apparently she looks like Lucy.

Really? Well, I don't know. I've never
seen her.

No, it's, um... Well, Anne seemed
pleased, you know.

I don't really need... It's mainly for
Anne.

Might I have a look at your watch?

You're right. You know, it's important
to her this works out, Anthony.

She's been worried about you, you know,
and it really upsets her.

When you keep falling out... What did
you do about my watch?

Oh, nothing. I was just looking.

I want to check if it's... Check if
it's... It's pretty. Very pretty.

Did you buy it?

No.

Was it a present or did you buy it?

I bought it.

Why?

I don't suppose you kept the receipt.

What are you talking about?

Your watch. It's, uh... I was talking
about Anne.

Anne? Yes,

Anne.

Yeah.

I don't know why we never really got on
well together.

Whereas her little sister... Ah, there's
another story.

Do you know her?

She's marvellous.

Marvellous.

I haven't seen her for months.

I can't blame her. She's travelling
around the world, I think.

She's a painter.

I'd be so happy if she came to see me
one day.

I'd take her in my arms and we'd be
glued to one another for hours and then

like we used to be a long time ago when
she was little.

But she still used to call me little
daddy.

Little daddy.

That's what she used to call me, you
know.

Nice, isn't it, little daddy?

Can I ask you a question?

Hmm?

But I want an honest answer.

I mean, fancy.

Can you do that for me?

Yeah.

Fine.

How long do you intend to hang around
here getting on everybody's tits?

What is it?

What have you done to your hair?

Nothing, why?

You're looking good.

You've lost your keys?

No.

Hello,

my father has an appointment with Dr
Sarai.

Dad?

Date of birth?

Friday, 31st of December, 1937.

Brady? Yes.

You're living with your daughter at the
moment, is that right?

Yes, until she goes to live in Paris.

No, Dad, why do you keep going on about
Paris?

What? I'm staying in London.

You keep changing your mind. How do you
expect people to keep up?

There's never been any question of me
living in Paris.

Yes, there was. You told me. No, I
didn't.

Sorry, Anne, you told me the other day.

Have you forgotten?

She's forgotten.

You're starting to suffer from memory
loss. I'd have a word with the doctor if

were you.

In any event, I'm not going to Paris.

Oh, that's good.

Paris. They don't even speak English
there.

and things can change very quickly.

So if you need anything at all, give me
a call anytime.

Thank you.

Say, what's the matter?

What?

All right.

I'll be up in a minute.

Thank you. Thank you.

I think he'd like to see you.

Where is he? He's in his room.

Let me have it.

Yeah. Yeah, let me.

What have you done?

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Okay. I'll get dinner ready.

Anne.

What? Thank you for everything.

We have to find another arrangement.

Gotcha, yes.

Putting him in an institution.

A home? Yes. A nursing home.

It'd be better for him.

Why are you saying this to me now, when
tomorrow morning we've got this girl

starting?

You're right.

We'll see.

And maybe it'll work out very well with
this girl. You seem to think she's good.

But believe me, if the doctor is right,
the moment will come when, however good

she is, he's ill.

He's ill.

Dad, what are you doing standing out
there? Come on.

Come on, Dad. Come and sit down.

Come on, Dad.

So it went well today?

Yeah, very well.

Wouldn't you agree, Dad?

What? You made her laugh a lot.

I did?

Yes, you said you were charming. That
you had your ways, but that you were

charming. And she's coming back tomorrow
morning to start working here.

Would you like some more?

I would.

Good chicken.

Did you think about you? Where did you
buy it?

Downstairs. Why?

Oh, no reason.

It's good chicken.

Paul? No, thanks.

She's working full days. Is she? I
mean... No, till six.

And then?

What do you mean?

After six. I'll be here.

Is that it, Spike?

What? Well, you have a daughter who
looks after you properly.

Don't you?

You're lucky.

You're lucky, too.

Oh, you think so?

What's the matter with her?

Anne.

She's tired.

Need to get a sun.

Aye.

You need to take care of her, old sport.

Why did you go away somewhere?

Why?

Sometimes I wonder if you're doing it
deliberately.

Oh.

We had planned on going to Italy.

But we had to cancel it at the last
moment.

Do you know why?

No. Because of your rail with Angela.

We weren't able to go and leave you on
your own. We had to cancel our holiday

and bring you here.

And now you're going to stay here.

For good.

I understand correctly.

It's forgotten.

Stop it.

Stop what?

You're being a bit... A bit what?

Sarcastic.

No, I'm not. I think I'm being very,
very patient.

Very patient. Believe me.

Where's the chicken? Did you take the
chicken away? Sorry, you want some more?

No, is it in the kitchen?

Yeah, I'll fetch you some more. No, I'll
get it.

Why do you say things like that in front
of him? What did I say?

Listen, I completely understand your
feelings. No, you don't understand. Yes,

do. But what I don't understand is...
You do so much for him.

And I respect you for that. I mean, you
took the decision to bring him here and,

you know, why not? But...

I honestly think you have to come up
with a different solution.

He's totally lost it. Stop talking like
that. What have you fooled me just for?

I'm telling the truth.

We have to come up with a different
arrangement.

Such as?

Put him in an institution.

A home?

Yes, a nursing home.

It'll be better for him.

Why are you saying this to me now when
tomorrow morning we've got this girl

start? Yes, you're right. We'll see.

Maybe it will work out very well with
this girl. You seem to think she's good.

But believe me, the doctor's right,
Anne. The moment will come when, however

good she is, he's ill, Anne.

He's ill.

Dad, what are you doing standing out
there? Come in, sit down.

Come on, Dad.

Dad, come in, sit down.

Please hold the line while we try to
connect you.

The number you are calling knows you are
waiting.

Anne, where are these from?

Shall I get you some tea before she
arrives?

Where's the painting?

What painting?

Lucy's. Oh, you're mixing this up with
your flack. There's never been a

there.

Come and have some breakfast.

Anne.

Look.

Tea.

Anne?

Here's your tea.

Huh? Don't let it get cold.

Where's Anne?

She went out.

Really? Already?

Yeah. Oh.

She'll be back.

At the end of the day, I'll look for
your medication.

No, wait, wait, wait. I'll be back. I'm
just going to look for your medication.

What is

the time?

Time for your medication.

Best to take them now when it's done,
don't you think?

This little blue one, that's the one you
like.

Your little blue pill. Look at the
pretty colour, isn't it?

Can I ask you a question?

Yes.

Are you a nun?

No.

Then why are you speaking to me as if
I'm retarded?

Me? Yes.

But I'm not.

Your little blue pill.

Your little blue pill.

Oh. Yeah. Sorry, I didn't mean... It's
really unpleasant.

You'll see when you get to my age, it
will happen sooner than you think.

I apologise.

It won't happen again.

No.

Tell me, have you noticed something?

What about?

Oh, you know, my flat.

What about it?

Well, it's changed.

Do you think?

Yes.

And those chairs, for instance, are...

That... Who put them there?

I don't know. Your daughter, I imagine.

Obviously, my daughter, obviously.

All the same, it is extraordinary not
even to ask my opinion.

Oh,

I wanted to apologise if I was a
little... last time we met.

No problem. Your daughter warned me. She
told me you had your ways.

It is amazing how much you look like
Lucy.

Anne told me what happened to her. I'm
sorry, I didn't know.

What?

About her accident.

What accident?

What?

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Huh? Are you taking your medication?
Then we'll go get dressed.

You see?

What?

You're speaking to me as if I were
retarded.

No, I'm not.

You are.

I'm not.

Yeah. I... I mean, get dressed in your
little blue pill.

The thing is, I'm very intelligent. You
need to bear that in mind.

Do you understand?

Yes, I'll bear that in mind.

Good. Thank you.

Yes, it's true, I'm very intelligent.

Sometimes I even surprise myself.

I have a memory like an elephant.

You know that animal?

Yes, yes.

You've forgotten your pill.

Oh, what are they doing there?

Shall I get you another glass of water?

No, no, no, don't bother. I'll swallow
them with them.

You see that cup of tea?

Are you sure?

Yeah, positive. Look here.

You'll see.

Are you watching?

Yes. Watch carefully.

Put them in my gob.

Watch carefully. Yes, yes, yes, I'm
watching.

Good.

Nice cup of tea.

Hey, presto.

Job is done.

Bravo. Yeah.

You know, I worked in the circus a bit
when I was young.

Did you?

Yes.

Would you like me to show you some
magic?

Why don't we go and get dressed first?

Well, now?

Yes. No, not now. Yes. No. Yes. Why?

It's not the point. I'll only have to
put my pyjamas back on again.

Might as well save some time.

I see what you mean.

But if you stay in your pyjamas, we
can't go out.

Well, where do you want to go?

Park. Oh, God. It's a nice day.

Is everything all right?

Fine. We're just going to get dressed.

But... Everything all right, Anthony?

Something that mattered?

No, no.

I just wanted to have a word with you,
in fact.

With me?

Yes. In that case, I'll go pack up our
things.

No, don't go, don't go. I'll be back.

Don't leave me on my own, Dee. I'll be
in the next room. I'll be right back.

Can I, uh, ask you a question?

Yeah. But I want an honest answer,
nothing fancy. Can you do that for me?

Yeah.

Well, then.

How much longer do you intend to hang
around getting on everybody's tits?

Who, me? Yes, you.

I'd like to know your opinion.

I mean, do you intend to go on ruining
your daughter's life, or is it too much

to hope you might behave reasonably in
the foreseeable future?

What's he talking about, Ed? About you,
Anthony.

Huh? About you.

Your attitude.

Stop, Ed.

I want to know this. You want to know
it? No.

Suppose I do it again.

Then what do you do?

I... Yeah?

You'll have to take me on physically.

You're saying that to tempt me?

See, me as well. There's something I
won't allow.

Getting on everybody's tits.

After a certain age. No, no, stop that.

Stop that. Yeah, I won't put up with
that.

I find that totally inappropriate.

Stop it.

Stop it.

Is it about your watch?

Is that the reason I found it? Look.

It's okay, it's okay. Don't cry.

Don't cry. Come on, you'll be all right
now. You'll be okay.

You'll be all right.

Let's eat our chicken, shall we? You
like chicken, don't you?

What time is it?

It's eight o 'clock, time to eat.

Eight o 'clock in the evening, that.

I thought it was morning.

I've only just got a book.

Let me see my pyjamas. No, it's the
evening.

And I've cooked you a chicken.

Oh, Dad.

It's okay. Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Little Daddy, it's okay.

Dad, are you asleep?

I am.

I am.

Dad, it's me.

Lucy?

Okay. Dad.

Dad? Are you up already?

Shall I get you some tea before she
arrives?

Dad?

Good morning. Come on, sit down. It's
ready. Are you hungry?

You've got a visitor today, do you
remember?

Do you remember, Dad?

How could I forget? She never stopped
talking about it.

Well, she shouldn't be long.

Ah, is this Ernie?

Yeah.

I talked about her last night.

Laura? Yes, well, I think I did. I could
see her face.

You know, I... She really reminded me of
your sister.

Yes, she said that yesterday.

Well, if you're happy...

I'm happy.

She seems really nice.

I mean, sweet and efficient. I think
she'll look after you well.

I like her.

Good.

We should get you dressed before she
arrives, don't you think?

Who? Laura, your new carer, the one you
like.

Oh, yes, yes, yes.

Yeah.

Yes. We'll get a jacket on you before
she arrives.

And trousers.

Yes.

She said she really enjoyed meeting you
yesterday.

Yes. And I must say, you did quite a
little number on her.

I did?

Yes. You convinced her that you knew how
to dance and you were really good at

tap dancing.

Oh, me?

Yeah.

Well, what did she say?

She said she hoped you'd give her a
demonstration one day.

It's funny.

I didn't know I knew how to tap dance.

Did you?

No.

Hidden talents.

Apparently, yes.

Oh!

Is that her?

I expect so.

But I'm not ready. I'm not even dressed.

Never mind. Do you want to get dressed
later? No, wait. I'm not even... I must

get dressed.

It doesn't matter.

It does matter!

She's outside the door.

Please don't leave me alone.

Look, I'd be mortified. What will she
think of me?

I've got to be properly dressed.

Dad, why do you have to make everything
so difficult? You can get dressed later.

Don't worry about it. I'll be mortified.
No, you won't. I will.

No, no, not at all. Come in, come in.
We're just in the kitchen.

Here we are. We were just about to get
dressed.

Anne, who's this?

Hello, Anthony.

Anne,

it's not her.

Would you like something to drink, some
coffee?

No, thanks. Have you already had
breakfast?

I'm fine.

I don't want her, but it's the one I
like the most.

Dad, what are you talking about? Say
hello to Laura.

There's something that doesn't make
sense about this.

It doesn't make sense. Remember me? We
met yesterday.

We were just starting to get to know one
another and I said I'd come back just

to see how you do things here and see if
I can help you.

Do you remember?

Dad, can I talk to you?

How shall I put this?

Do you remember the first time you came
to stay with me?

And it was a stopgap because you'd
fallen out with Angela and...

I was wondering if it might be better...

Do you think of this room? It's nice,
isn't it?

You can see the park.

Can you?

Oh.

It's very nice.

It's a bit like being in a hotel, don't
you think?

All the residents say so.

Um... I think you'd be better off here.

Where?

Here.

I think it'd be more reassuring and
nicer for you if we came to a joint

about you living here.

What do you think?

What about you? What would you do?

Where would you sleep? Which room?

If you remember, I'm going to go and
live in Paris.

I am, remember? I told you all about it,
remember?

You said it.

Are you sure?

Yes.

But you told me you were staying here
with me.

Now, I have to go. It is important.

I explained it all to you, and I'll come
back and see you occasional weekends.

What about me?

Well, you're going to stay here in
London.

All on my own?

What about your sister? Where is she?

Oh, Dad.

If you only knew how much I miss her.

I do, too. I miss her, too, Dad. We all
miss her.

I'm crossing the river.

Anne!

Sleep well?

What am I doing here?

It's time.

I didn't ask about the time. I asked you
what I was doing here.

Where's Anne?

Look, I brought you your medication.

Why didn't you just fuck off with your
medication?

Are you a nurse?

Yeah. Oh, you are. Oh, I see.

That's it.

You are a nurse.

Yes. That's what I was thinking. You're
the type.

Typical nurse.

So what are you doing here?

Sorry? What are you doing here?

I'm looking after you.

Oh, you don't say, really. Looking after
me?

Well, first I've heard of it.

Since when?

Quite a few weeks now.

Oh, a few weeks now.

I'm happy to hear it.

Amazing. Nobody ever tells me anything
in this house.

But I thought we were getting a new one.
New what?

Nurse. A new nurse. The one who looks a
bit like, um...

Lucy, my other daughter.

I met her the other day. She came here,
didn't she?

You take your medication?

She was supposed to start this morning.

Laura, wasn't she?

I think you're mixing things up,
Anthony.

The one who reminds me of Lucy.

Right. Right.

Time to take our medication.

Yeah.

Not timed by the minute, is it?

Where is that?

Your daughter isn't here, Anthony.

Oh.

Where is she? Has she gone out?

Well, if you remember, she lives in
Paris.

No, no, no, no, no.

She thought about going, but in the end
it didn't happen.

She's been there several months now.

My daughter in Paris?

No, no, no, listen. They don't even
speak English.

Look. Huh?

Yesterday, the postcard she sent you, we
read it together.

Do you remember?

Look.

Huh? Hmm?

Now, I tell you this every day.

She lives in Paris because she met a man
called Paul, and that's who she's

living with now.

She comes to see you sometimes.

Huh? Yes.

Occasionally, she...

She comes for the weekend. She comes
here, and you go for a walk in the park,

and she tells you about her new life,
what she's up to.

The other day, she brought you some
coffee, because you like coffee.

I detest coffee.

Only drink tea.

Everything all right?

Fine. We were just getting dressed.

Everything all right?

Yes.

Thank you. Have a nice day.

See you later.

Em, who is he?

Who?

Em, who just left?

That Bill.

Bill?

Yeah. Are you sure?

Yeah, why?

Oh, no reason. I just, um... I just...
How shall I put this?

What's he doing here?

Here in my flat. Do I know him?

He's Bill. You see him every day.

Do I?

And you?

What?

Sorry to ask this, but... I mean, you,
you... Who are you,

exactly? I'm Catherine.

Catherine, that's right.

Yes, yes.

Yes. Catherine.

And he's Bill. Yes.

Um... What about me?

Um... Who... exactly am I?

You?

You're Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony's a nice name.

Anthony, don't you think?

It's a very nice name.

My mother gave it to me, I imagine.

Do you know her?

Who?

My mother.

She... No.

She has... She has such big eyes.

I can see her face now.

She was... I hope she'll come and see me
sometime.

Do you think, Mummy?

She was saying she might come
occasionally at the weekend.

Your daughter?

No.

Mummy.

I want my mummy.

I want my mummy. I want to get out of
here.

I want someone to come and fetch me.

No, shh.

No, no, I want my mummy. I want her to
come and fetch me.

I want to go home.

What is it, Anthony?

What is it?

I feel as if I'm losing all my leaves.

Your leaves?

Yeah. What do you mean?

The branches and the wind and the rain.

I don't know what's happening anymore.

Do you know what's happening?

All this business about the flat.

No, wait.

put my head down anymore.

But I know my watch is on my wrist, that
I do know, for the journey.

If not, I... don't know if I...

be ready to... to...

We'll get dressed, shall we?

Yes.

We'll get dressed.

And then we'll go for a walk in the
park, shall we?

Yes.

Good.

The trees and all the leaves.

And then we'll come back here and we'll
have something to eat.

Yes. And then you can have your fiesta,
all right?

Yes.

And then if you're feeling on good form,
we can go for another little walk in

the park.

Just the two of us.

Because it's such a lovely day.

It's sunny outside.

And we have to go while it's sunny.

We have to take that chance.

Because it never lasts long when the
weather's this good, does it?

So, let's get dressed.

That's right.

No, come on. No, come on, baby.

It's all right You're

going to feel all right in a minute, I
promise you

everything will be all right
