A fine romance with no kisses.

A fine romance, my friend, this is. They
think we're like a

couple of hot tomatoes.

But we're as cold as yet it is mashed
potatoes.

A fine romance with no wrestling.

A fine...

What a charm.

This is a fine romance.

Well, say something, then.

I'm just trying to get the facts
straight.

I've already told you the facts. Well,
that's what I mean.

Look, you arrived back from Brussels two
hours ago while we were having supper

with Mike. You've been hiding upstairs
till he left. Is that right?

More or less.

What do you mean, more or less?

I don't think you ever really went to
Brussels.

I think you've been hiding upstairs the
last six months.

It just sounds sillier than it is.

It couldn't sound sillier.

Aren't you glad to see me?

Oh, I'm thrilled.

I haven't had a completely insane
evening for ages.

Of course I'm glad to see you.

I just wonder why you couldn't arrive
normally.

Well, I did, only I didn't know that
Mark was here.

So I suggested that she wait upstairs
until he went.

Well, I suppose it does make a terrible
sort of sense.

I saw baby Bill. He's beautiful.

Yes, he is, isn't he?

Well, come on.

Tell us some more about George.

George. George?

George.

It's a chap I met in Brussels.

He's proposed.

Proposed what?

Marriage. Sorry.

Well, the first couple of months were
awful. I didn't know anyone. I nearly

home. And then this girl at work invited
me to a party.

So I said to myself, Laura, either you
sit around feeling sorry for yourself...

Or you get up with your backside and do
something about it. So you went to a

party and met Georges?

Well, not exactly.

I couldn't find the place, and I asked
someone, and that was Georges.

Look, this proposal... No, I couldn't.

He was a dear, kind man.

I think if he'd offered to adopt me, I
would have accepted.

I don't think Mum and Dad would have
liked that. But you know what I mean. He

was a lovely, soft blanket.

He made me feel warm and totally
protected.

Perhaps that was the trouble.

You do have a penchant for precarious
living, don't you? No. No?

No! No? No!

You said he was rich. Yes, Harry.

No! Oh, shut up.

Anyway, it's over and done with.

And here I am, older and wiser.

No, well, just older.

Well, we're glad, aren't we, Phil?

Aren't we, Phil?

Yes.

I expect Mike will be, too.

And if you intend to hide upstairs every
time he comes round. Well, of course I

don't. I just wasn't prepared to meet
him that quickly.

I'm bound to bump into him sooner or
later.

He's in a dodgy car.

Well, I'll phone him then.

We'll just try and say a bit more than
hello, Mike, and hanging up this time.

Well, you know about that. That's why he
came round.

He was worried.

He was, Laura.

You see, I just got to Brussels Airport.
I just phoned him, but when he

answered, I couldn't think of anything
to say, so I hung up.

No wonder he was worried. Oh, I know.
I've made a mess of it.

I've made a mess of everything.

Well, I'm too tired to talk about it
now.

Yes, of course you must be.

Well, I'm not having you looking for
hotels this time of night. You'll stay

here. That's already been arranged.

Oh. Just till I sort myself out.

Shall I leave him in the garden?

He's fast asleep and it's a lovely day.

Yes, it's wonderful when he's awake, but
it's ever so peaceful when he's asleep.

You were a long time.

I enjoyed it.

I'm afraid I showed off terribly.

That's right, so do I.

Aren't other people who show off with
their babies boring?

So little to show off about, actually.

Is there lunch? Do you want a hand?

I'm nearly done.

Sit down and talk to me.

You know, I've been thinking.

Oh, yes?

About Mike?

Oh, yes.

I'm going to have to see him sooner or
later.

I suppose you are.

But sooner it was later than sooner.

I don't think you owe him an explanation
about that phone call.

Yes.

I don't suppose... No.

But if you were to bump into him, now
you're back on bumping into him. I'm not

likely to. I don't see that much of him.

But if you... If I do, I shall not give
a single clue at your whereabouts or

well -being. If anything's going to be
said, it's got to come from you.

Now, I want your promise on that.

Good.

Because, you see, I want it to come from
me.

Well, I hope you mean this century.

Hello, Helen.

I'm sorry to bother you.

Not a bit of it.

It's not a bad time, is it? Not at all.
It's a very good time.

Come in, Mike.

Sit down, Mike.

How are you, Mike?

Well, to tell you the truth, I'm a bit
worried.

Worried, Mike?

Why are you shouting?

Oh, sorry.

The baby's in the back garden, you see,
and the sound of my voice reassured him.

Would you like to... No, no, he's
probably asleep by now.

Actually, I've got something in the
oven.

What is it you're worried about?

Well, Laura.

Aren't you worried as well?

Yes, I am, as a matter of fact.

I heard that phone call from Bruttles
yesterday.

I mean, why should she phone me and say,
hello, Mike, and then hang up?

Well, I'll tell you what I think.

I think she's in some sort of trouble. I
think she wanted to tell me something,

but, well, let's face it, it's been six
months and she lost her nerve and hung

up. I think you're right.

What did she want to tell me?

Look, Mike, I should just forget the
whole thing. I can't. I mean, maybe

ill. Maybe she's in some sort of
trouble.

I don't think she deserves that sort of
consideration.

That's not like you.

Well, it is today.

But it is worrying, isn't it?

I've rang that number in Brussels six
times since last night and there's been

reply.

Why are you showing me this cupboard?

I'm sorry, am I supposed to be deducing
something?

I expect it's the baby.

What is?

Well, when a baby is born, don't women
sometimes...

Postnatal depression, that's what it's
called.

No, Mike, I am not suffering from
postnatal depression. I am suffering

-Laura depression.

Yes, of course.

You are worried about Laura.

Look, we've got to find out what's up,
haven't we?

This has got to be sorted out.

And I am going to do it.

Nice walk.

Really?

So lovely to look at English things
again.

Yes, I suppose the view from the
cupboard was rather limited.

Oh, it's no good sitting there and
sighing.

You think I'm behaving stupidly, don't
you?

With knobs on.

Is lunch ready yet?

Yes.

I'm starving. You're not getting any.
Oh, really?

What are you going to do, send me to my
room?

I'll tell you what you're going to do
straight away. You are going round to

Mike and explain.

Look, Helen, if and when I see Mike and
what I choose to explain is really my

business, isn't it? Not if I have
anything to do with it. Not when I'm

to tell lies to someone who is genuinely
concerned.

Well, I'm sorry about that.

Good. So, if we can just have lunch
now... I told you, you're not getting

lunch. I'll go out for some.

Oh, for goodness sake, go round and see
Mike now.

I should really, shouldn't I?

Yes, you should, really.

Yes, well, I'll go.

Right.

I'll go now.

Without lunch.

Good.

I intended to see him anyway.

after lunch.

Right then, I'm off.

And I must say, Helen, it's very unlike
you to get into such a state over

nothing.

Oh, sorry. I was just having a... I was
having a look at something.

Can I help you at all?

I'm just looking for Mr Selway.

Oh, he's not here.

You're Terry?

Yeah. Don't you remember me? Laura
Dalton.

We did meet once.

Gordon Bennett.

Have I changed that much? No, no.

Only you're here.

Yes, that's right.

Only Mike isn't.

Well, where is he?

He's gone to Brussels to look for you.

That's England.

Oh, oui.

Are you saying that Mademoiselle Dalton
has gone to England?

Hier. She's here.

Non, monsieur. En Angleterre, hier.

No, no, no.

That's me.

I have come from Angleterre to hier.

Ici. Pas ici, monsieur. Hier.

Hier.

Hier.

Yes, all right. Very good. So,
Mademoiselle Dalton is... is... Yeah!

Santé. Cheers.

Now, let us try a different apple.

Aujourd 'hui.

Today? Oui.

Demain.

Tomorrow.

Bravo, monsieur.

Look, this is all very informative,
but...

Yesterday.

Bravo, monsieur.

So, what about yesterday?

Yeah.

Alors, hier.

Yesterday. Mademoiselle Dalton. Laura.

Par avion. The name of a place?

Non, non, non, monsieur. Par avion.

Oh, a plane.

All 'Angleterre. To England.

Mademoiselle. to myself, Dalton.

To England

yesterday.

Madame, I think you're the first person
to tell me the truth in the last 24

hours.

Nothing, Dante.

Jeez.

No, it's me.

Oh. You still here?

That's a soppy question, isn't it?

Oh.

No, it isn't a soppy question. Not a
soppy question at all, Terry.

I just thought that Mike might be on the
plane that gets in at six o 'clock.

Well, I don't see why he'd come here
that late.

No, come to think of it, nor do I.

He'd have gone straight back home.

Look, I can find his number and give him
a ring for you.

I know the number.

I used to live there.

Oh, yeah.

When I phone, there's no reply.

Oh. Perhaps he stayed in Brussels
overnight. You know, made a little

it.

I don't think he'd be in a holiday mood.

Tell me something.

Do you two always carry on like this?

More or less.

Never dull, then, eh?

No.

Never dull.

Well, look, I hope you don't think I'm
being rude, but I like to play with my

little girl before she goes to bed.

Oh, of course. You want to lock up? Duh.

She loves Mike.

Does she?

Oh, yeah.

I think it's because he doesn't do all
that coochie -coochie stuff to her.

What does he do to her?

Well, he talks to her, as if she's a
proper little person.

Look, Terry, I don't want to hold you up
any more, but about Mike.

I've already messed him up enough as it
is, so if you see him tomorrow, could

you ask him to ring me at this number?

Yeah, sure.

Come to think of it, you better ring me
and I'll ring Mike.

OK.

I'll give you Phil's office number as
well. Oh, lovely.

Who's Phil?

Helen's husband.

Well, who's Helen?

My sister.

Oh, you'd better give me her number as
well, then. I already did.

I'm staying there.

So if we should be out, you could ring
Phil and then Phil will ring me when I

get back.

So if we do go out, I'll ring Phil to
tell him who you are and if you should

ring him.

And I'll ring you to tell you that
Phil's rung me.

How old is your daughter?

She's one, why?

I should forget you've ever seen me.

Go home and have a really intelligent
conversation with her.

Well, do I lay a place for your mad
sister or what?

She's just worried.

Do you know how she is? You haven't seen
her since this morning.

She wouldn't have gone back to Brussels,
would she?

For all I know, she's pony trekking in
the Himalayas.

I still think you should have given her
away when Mike came round this morning.

I promise.

I did show him the cupboard.

Look at the level of behaviour she
brings you down to.

Ah, there she is.

What if she brought any Sherpas with
her?

I've been to Brussels.

Oh, dear.

Yes, that's what I thought.

Laura was here all the time, wasn't she?

Hello, Phil. You've grown a moustache,
haven't you?

Well, if you knew she was here all the
time, what did you get a brush for?

Because it didn't click until I was well
on the way home again.

You were trying to tell me something
this morning, weren't you, when you

me that cupboard?

She made me promise.

I suppose you made a swear on that
hamster's grave.

Grumpy? Yes, indeed.

I'm beginning to wish she'd never come
back in the first place. Well, that's

something I still don't know.

Why did she come back?

Well, I think she should tell you that
herself.

Yes, and we have a finder again.

Well, I don't know what's happened to
him.

Oh, wait.

Honestly.

Oh, hello, Mark.

Hello.

It's like Stanley finding Livingston,
isn't it?

Well, I think Phil and I will be
incredibly discreet.

And go and get the dinner.

Yes, if you're going to have a row, I'll
make it a quiet one. Or you'll wake up

the baby.

Would you like to say to dinner, Mike?
You're very welcome.

No, thanks. I'm not hungry. I've had
several aeroplane meals today.

I'm fine.

How are you?

Very well. How was Brussels?

Much as you left it. Sorry.

I shouldn't have asked that. I wasn't
trying to be funny. Oh, why not?

Why not be funny?

I think there's a great deal of humour
in me spending £138 going to Brussels

back for simply nothing at all.

I'd have contacted you sooner if I knew
you were going to do that.

Oh, you mean you'd have actually
materialised instead of hiding in the

No, last night.

Do you mean to say you were here last
night? Yes.

Whilst I was here? Yes.

In the cupboard? No, I was upstairs.

Well, of all the stupid, brainless,
gormless, dark things to do... But I was

waiting for the right moment. You had
hundreds of right moments.

Hundreds of right moments whilst I was
worrying about you.

Oh, that was nice. It was not nice.

It was totally unnecessary, you and your
stupid phone call. Well, it was an

impulse. I decided to come back to
England and I wanted...

You didn't tell me anything.

All you said was, hello, Mike, and then
you hung up. Oh, just forget the phone

call. Forget I have a phone. Oh, F1.

Now forget the £138 I spent on going to
Brussels and back for nothing at all.

138 pounds. I know the amount.

There. Thank you.

Now look what you've done.

Me? I thought I told you not to shout.

I don't know what's got into you both. I
really don't.

Now listen, you two.

If you want to carry on with this, go
somewhere else and do it.

pub with sawdust on the floor and turn
it into a brawl, if you like.

But I think you ought to know that I'm
thick and tired of having my family

caught up in your raving.

Sorry, Phil. Sorry, Phil.

Right.

Makes us sound like the Marx Brothers.

Poor at one time.

I'm sorry about Brussels, Mike.

I don't know.

Maybe you were right.

I don't mean about going in the first
place. I mean about the phone call and

your day trip.

Didn't even remember to get any duty
free.

Well, now that you're back, are you
staying for good or what?

Oh, yes.

I think so.

Well, we must meet up sometime.

Have a chinwag. Yes, lots of news to
catch up on.

Well, we'll have dinner or something.

Oh, that would be nice.

No reason why we can't remain friends,
is there?

No.

No, of course not.

Well, I'd better be off. Let Phil and
Helen have their house back.

Say goodbye to them for me, will you?

Well, I'll see you soon, then.

Look, about the check.

What about the check, Mike?

You forgot to sign it.
