It's been six months now.

You've just got to get on.

I'm trying.

Everything reminds me.

This imaginary friend,
how long's it going to last?

Until she grows out of it.

She lives here. She's
always lived here.

I don't want you talking to her
any more, do you understand?

She wouldn't wander off.
Why can't you just accept it?

Because she wouldn't
do that! But she did!

I didn't know you could sign.

Who's the woman? Olive runcie.

She's deaf, lives
further out - forest road.

She didn't mean it!
Who didn't mean it?

Alice. Oh, my god!

Mark, if it's a girl,

what do you think
about the name Alice?

Radio: 'Prescription
charges are to be reintroduced

into the national health
service...' You look tired.

Do I?

You and Ruth, both of you.

I'm not the only
one who's noticed.

People are worried about you.

What people? What do you mean?

Father boyle.

He was asking you
about you yesterday.

What did you say?

I said Paul might
drop in and see him.

What? He wants you to telephone.

You can't just -

I can't just sit here and watch
you like this day after day.

You've no right.

I'm your mother.

Oh, this is daft. I feel
like an old woman!

Maybe we should get a stair
lift. I'd settle for a stair carpet.

Or the bannister getting
painted. It's all on the list.

We'll be bringing a baby
home to a building site.

We'll get there, don't
worry. Don't say that.

Worrying's one of the
few things I can still do.

I'm not saying it's a bad idea,

just that you might have
trouble persuading Ruth, that's all.

You just need to know
how to ask. What's the p...

Morning.

Radio: 'We keep
hearing about the deficit.

Just explain
exactly what that is.'

radio: 'That defines
everything we are talking about.

The deficit is the
gap between...'

radio: 'Stay tuned
to York 105 fm.'

Our concern, for now,
is what Amy might do

during any further episodes.

You're gonna have to
keep a close eye on her.

She's not dangerous, not
Amy. What are you going to do?

I'm going to arrange some tests

and maybe a scan, to tell us if
the issue's psychiatric or physical.

How can it be physical?

Well, the symptoms
could be caused

by something affecting
the brain itself. Like what?

The most common
would be a blood clot,

or temporal lobe epilepsy.

Or a tumour.

Oh, god.

(Sighs)

(Door rattles)

(Stifled laugh)

(Rattling continues)

(Sighs)

Hmm.

Alice - 5/10/65.

Alice - 15/8/66.

Alice - 10th of October, 1967.

Hello, little Alice.

Hiya, babe. It's only me.

Erm... you're probably in a
site meeting or something,

it's nothing urgent.

Erm...

I was just wondering if you could
pick up some milk on your way home.

Thanks. See you later.

Hm.

Do you think we should
tell her? Tell her what?

We don't know anything yet.

What are we gonna do?

We're going to find out
what's wrong with her.

Whatever it is, we're
going to make it better.

But, Helen, what if she - don't!

(Door opens)

Hey. Where's the funeral?

You what?

The suit - looks
like someone died.

I should go and get changed.

How was school?

Is everything all right...
With Amy and that?

Yeah. It's fine, love.

Nothing to worry about.

'Ey up. Hey.

Got your message.
Good. Well done.

How you doing? (Sighs) Ok.

The office had to send a courier
out with court papers for a signature.

Must have cost them a fortune.

They'll charge it to the client.

That's what you law
firms usually do, isn't it?

I was glad to see him, actually.

The only person
I spoke to all day.

(Chuckles)

You getting lonely in
the big, empty house?

No. Of course not!

It's just so quiet
round here, that's all.

Well, I'm back now,
so you can relax.

Only a little for me, please.
Not feeling well, Ruth, love?

Just not much of an appetite.
You ought to make the effort.

It's not that easy,
though, is it?

I spoke to father boyle
on the telephone today.

Father boyle? Why?

He was concerned about us.

How we're getting on.

What did you say?

I said we'd go in and see him,

have a chat.

What?

Such a nice man, very wise.

Don't you think you
should have asked me first?

Ruth, I'm asking you
now. What if I don't want to?

I've already said we would.

He is there to help.
He hardly knows us.

He married us,
he baptised Alice.

And he buried her!
All the more reason.

Amy: It's not fair.

They keep asking
questions about you.

But none of them believe me.

Everybody's upset
and it's all your fault.

Go away.

Leave me alone.

Come on, nisha.

I've got a meeting with
the bank this morning.

If I don't write it
down, you'll forget,

then you'll have
to make two trips.

Can't I just pick up a
pizza, or something? No.

It's not just about tonight, we need
some proper shopping and I can't go.

What about the Internet?

I don't want somebody else picking
my fruit and vegetables for me.

I suppose I should
be flattered. At what?

That you trust me.

Don't have any choice, do I?

(Mobile phone
rings) Oh, it's mum.

Right, I'm out of here.

See you later. Ok.

(Ringing continues)

Hiya, mum.

No, everything's fine.

Yes, he is.

Yes, he's looking after me.

Stop that! You know he is.

(Sighs) Well, we'll
get by somehow.

Open university.

(Bell tolls)

Father boyle: The death of a
child is always hard to understand.

We can't only believe
when we understand.

Faith is about believing, even
when we don't understand.

This isn't a crisis
of faith, father.

What about your
faith in each other?

I think that's
what's being tested.

R-Ruth won't
accept Alice is gone.

I know she's dead!

But she's still here.

I can feel her.
That's just grief.

No, it's more than
that! What, ghosts?

Please, tell her, father.

You do need to be careful

that your genuine feelings aren't
being corrupted by superstition.

It's not superstition.

It's believing, even when
we don't understand.

Marriage is a covenant
between two people before god.

A lifelong partnership
for the good of each other

and the procreation and
education of offspring.

That vow can't
just be abandoned.

If grief is distracting you,

put it to one side.

You must remember your
matrimonial responsibilities.

We've been trying.

It's been difficult to...

..Regain that... Intimacy.

I'm not talking about intimacy,

I'm talking about duty.

It's not about candlelight
and mantovani,

it's a contract with god.

You need to fulfil your
marital obligations.

And then... See if he'll
bless you with another child.

(Typing)

(Sighs)

(Squeaking)

(Squeaking continues)

(Squeaking continues)

(Squeaking continues)

(Squeaking continues)

(Squeaking continues)

(Squeaking stops)

TV: 'You seem so flat about
marrying him. Unhappy, even.'

TV: 'I am not unhappy!'

what are you doing, Amy?

A collage for school.

We're doing a
project on fashion.

Where did you get
the scissors from?

Kitchen drawer.

Mum said it was all right.

Ok. But be really careful, yeah?

I'm always careful.

I know, sweetheart.

I'm sorry.

(Running water)

(Sighs)

Howdy, hopalong!
What you reading?

About changes to national
insurance for employers.

Any good?

Great opening, flags
a bit in the middle.

Do you think I look
fat and bloated?

No! You look
radiant and blooming.

And slightly ridiculous.

You do know you've got a
bin bag on your foot, don't you?

I'm not supposed to get it wet.

Shit. The bath!

But...

I left it running.
You can't have.

Must have turned
them off, then forgot. No.

I left it running.

Well, it's off now.

No harm done.

(Sighs)

What's up? You scared me.

Listen, what
happened at that clinic?

Nothing.

I spoke to the doctor,

then mum and dad spoke to
the doctor, then we came home.

So why are they
acting all weird?

I don't know.

I've got to go back -
they're gonna scan my head.

You don't think it'll
hurt, do you? No.

It's just like an X-ray.

You won't feel anything.

Probably just want to see
if there's a brain in there.

Sorry.

You don't wanna leave
these lying around.

If Amy finds them - I'll
keep them out the way.

I don't know why
you're reading them.

The doctor doesn't even
know what's going on yet.

She talked about
possible causes. Oh, yeah.

And what a list that was.

What's wrong?

It's this business
with the scissors.

I was thinking about
what the psychiatrist said,

about keeping an eye on her.

When she caught me
looking at her like that, like...

..Like I was afraid she was
gonna do something really bad.

I thought she was
gonna cry. Oh, Eddie.

I don't wanna be
thinking about her like that.

Or talking about her as if she's a
set of symptoms, or a case study.

She's not well, love. We
need to find out what's wrong.

That means doctors and
clinics and medical jargon.

But not here, eh?

This is her home.

When she's here,

let's let her just be Amy, eh?

Please.

Come here.

Mark: The family started a
little sooner than we'd intended.

Woman: These things
happen, don't they?

Then nisha, my partner,
she broke her ankle.

Oh!

So she's stuck in the house.

I've got so much on
at work at the minute

and can't be about
as much as i'd like.

Sounds like it's all
happening at once.

That's what it feels like.

But basically you're... Looking
for some help around the house?

A bit of cleaning

and some company
for nisha? Exactly.

Just for a while.

I thought it might be good to get
someone in a couple of times a week.

That's why I put up the ad.

Well, I was a midwife for
25 years, before I retired.

And I can cook
a little, if need be.

Sounds perfect.

And you're local, aren't you?

I lived here when I was younger.

Moved back recently.

That's a bit like me.

I couldn't wait to get
away when I was a kid.

Now I'm here and
about to have my own.

That's nice though, isn't it?

Well, the job's
yours, if you want it.

But what about nisha?

Nisha?

Oh, no, she'll be fine.

I'll talk to her.

I'm going back there now.

All right, lads?

You all right, Mark?
How's it going?

All right, Scott.

Want some? Yeah. Thanks.

So, what are you
up to? Labouring.

Mum got talking to mrs runcie

and... suddenly I'm supposed
to be sorting her garden out.

The runcies?!
Sooner you than me.

Well, I need the cash.

She is a bit weird, though,
her and her daughter.

No wonder. Up
there on their own,

enough to drive
anybody bonkers, eh?

Here. Better get going. Thanks.

Well, if you're not back in a few
hours, I'll have to call the cops.

Well, they'd only arrest
you, wouldn't they?

I think he's right.

We have a duty.

To have another baby?

To try. But we've been trying.

Since Alice was five.
Things are different now.

We had Alice before.

Now he might decide
to bless us again.

I don't think it
works like that.

He said it were a
contract with god.

With responsibilities...
Obligations.

And love?

That, too.

All those things.

We have to try.

You don't know anything
about her. If you'd seen her -

yeah, but I didn't, did I? You
did all of this behind my back.

It wasn't behind your back!

It was... A surprise.

Mark, I'm six months pregnant,
the last thing I need is a surprise.

Fine. I'm sorry, I should
have done things differently.

But it's done now. Well,
you're gonna have to undo it.

What? Tell her there's no job,

tell her that you've made
a mistake. I can't do that.

Phone her. I didn't
take her number.

Well, when she turns up, you're
gonna have to speak to her, ok?

Fine. Ok. If that's
what you want.

Right, Mark. You can
clear everything by the wall,

but watch out for the Thorn bushes.
The hedge needs cut right back,

it's not been done for ages.

Once you've got everything under
control, you can tackle the lawn.

There should be a mower
somewhere in the shed, so...

Are you listening to me?

Yeah. Yes, mr runcie.

Got it.

Mower's in the shed.

Right. Well, you'd
better make a start.

I've just got to go
into the village for a bit,

so if you need
anything, ask olive.

She reads lips. Right.

Keep an eye on him.

So, what makes you
think it's your daughter's?

It was her first communion gift.

She wore it all the time.

But when... When
we collected the body,

there were two things missing -

her duffle coat and her cross.

Well, if you fell
into that water,

you'd try and get a heavy
coat off, wouldn't you?

It's not engraved, is it? No.

So it's just like
hundreds of other crosses

that hundreds of
other little girls wear.

It's hers. It was draped
over her headstone -

someone's trying
to tell us something.

Tell us what? I don't know!

There was no evidence
of any kind of foul play.

She wouldn't just wander
off on her own like that.

Kids behave differently when their
parents aren't around, don't they?

If you ask me, one
of her old classmates

has gone to visit the grave and
left it there as a token of friendship.

Nothing more. So you're
not gonna investigate?

Investigate what, exactly?
Where it came from.

What it means.

What happened to her.

She drowned, mrs Bowen.

Fell into Blackwater
tarn and drowned.

The case is closed.

The case is not closed!

My daughter died and no-one
can tell me how it happened.

For god's sake, why
don't you just do your job?

I am doing my job.

I've been doing it for 30
years and I can tell you this -

if mothers like you
did your job properly,

mine would be a
whole lot easier.

Now, if there's nothing else...

Radio: 'You're
listening to York 105 fm.'

(Coughs)

Thanks.

Sorry, I don't... you know.

Oh, I look hot?

Well, how do I, er...

What's 'thank you'?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You spoke.

You can speak?

But I thought that...

I mean... I didn't know.

Not many people do.

Why not?

Not many people talk to me.

Come with me. That?
That's nothing. Honestly.

How's he getting on? Fine.

Any problems?

Good.

It's only me.

(Squeaking)

(Squeaking continues)

Scott?

Oh, for god's sake.

What's wrong with you? Sorry.

I'm going upstairs.

Hey, keep it down, will
you. Nothing too loud.

I've got a headache.

♪ Au Clair De la lune ♪

Robert?

I come in here sometimes...

..Just to remember.

Me, too.

She was such a good little girl.

That's why it's so
hard to understand.

I suppose we'll never really
know what happened. We will.

I will.

I'll find out, I promise
you. I have to.

What else is there?

Tell me again. Oh, Ruth.

Tell me. The dog...

The dog ran off and
disappeared into the trees.

And you told Alice
to wait on the track?

While I went to find the dog.
She was wearing her coat?

Yes, uh... her coat,
she must have been.

And then? And then...

You were gone a few minutes.
It was only a few minutes,

but when I got back to the
track - she'd disappeared.

Yes. No shout, no scream?

Nothing. She must
have... Wandered off.

But you told her to wait. Yes.

And she's a good
girl, you said so.

She must have gone looking
for me and got lost in the trees.

But you told her! Why
would she do that?

I don't know,
Ruth. I wish I did.

There's not a day goes by I
don't regret leaving her like that.

It should have been
me in that water.

Me... that they had to pull out.

That would have made more sense.

It's not your fault.

I will find out what happened.

(Phone rings)

Well, none of the tests found
anything physically wrong with Amy.

That means we now treat
it as a psychiatric illness.

Which one?

Erm... hard to say.

Maybe some kind of
dissociative amnesia.

What's that when
it's at home? It's...

It's like a problem in the
way the mind files memory.

It's usually triggered
by some sort of trauma.

It's this trigger that
we'd be looking for.

But... it could be anything -

school, friends, family.

That's why we work so
closely with social services.

You're gonna get social
services to check up on us?

Where's this trauma
usually located?

Every case is different.

In your experience.

In my experience,

it's usually something
that happened at home.

I don't believe this.
Social services?

She said it's standard
procedure, like the scans.

You know when they say
they're looking for some trauma,

what they mean is some
sort of abuse. I don't care.

If it'll help Amy get better, they
can investigate whatever they like.

(Doorbell rings)

(Doorbell rings)

Oh, hello. You must be nisha.

I spoke to Mark
yesterday and - oh.

..He asked me to
- yes. Yes, I know.

Erm...

Look, I'm really sorry,
but there's been a mistake.

I don't know what
Mark told you, but...

(Mobile phone rings)

Shit. I'm sorry, I'm
gonna have to get that.

Oh, damn!

Here.

Why don't you let me?

(Ringing continues)

Nisha's phone.

Can you tell me
who's calling, please?

One moment. I'll
see if she's available.

It's 'bloody Derek'.
(It's my boss.)

(Don't want to speak to him.)

I'm sorry, she can't get
to the phone right now.

Can I take a message?

Tell me, Derek, do you
speak to your mother like that?

(Stifles laughter)

No, I'm sure you didn't.

Yes, she must be very proud.

Thank you. Goodbye.

He'd like you to call him back
when it's more convenient.

Oh, I wouldn't blame Mark.

He just thought you could
use an extra pair of hands.

It is a nice thought.

This isn't exactly
the easiest situation.

No, I can imagine.

Carrying a baby can
be difficult enough

without adding broken
bones to the equation.

The truth is, it's a bit
of a nightmare, really.

Well, it's quite simple - decide if
you want some help around the house

and then decide if you
want me to provide it.

And if we get that far, we can
always see how it goes for a while.

And if you're not
comfortable, I'll leave.

Hm.

Anyway, I'd better go,
I can see you're busy.

No. Wait. Erm...

Let's try it.

Are you sure? (Chuckles) Yeah.

Why not?

I don't even know your name.

Oh, didn't Mark say?

Well, it doesn't matter.

It's Ruth. Ruth Bowen.

Welcome to marchlands, Ruth.

Top of the stairs, on the left.

Thank you.

(Groans)

(Panting)

(Gasps)

Alice: 'Over here,
mummy. Over here!'

It should have been a secret.

I should never have
told them about you.

I want it back the
way it was before.

Alice.

Sweetheart.

Mummy's home.

Where we you, Ruth?
Where were you?!

You know where I was. Not
where you should have been!

I think Alice drowned.

She's always wet and cold.

You mean, you see her?

Is she here now?
