- Doctor Holm! - Good morning, Mrs Vergerus.

Your mother passed away about 15 minutes ago, very peacefully.

- May I go in? - By all means.

What's to be done with her possessions? Shall we send them...?

I'm not sure...

We'll collect them tomorrow.

Thank you for all your help and your care. Mummy was...

Thank you. But the wedding and engagement rings straight away...?

Dad! Phone call!

Cheers!

Which wine glasses, Mum?

- White wine. - Where are they?

- Second shelf, on the right. - Okay.

- Are you done? - Yup.

It's cold...

I'll go up and say goodnight to Maria. Can you take the ashtray?

Right...

We ought to have somewhere to stow that away.

- I'll take Bobby for his walk. - Yes, do!

Come on!

- At least he knew when to leave. - When are you due at the hospital?

7 a.m. I'm operating at 7.30.

- What did you think of him? - Damned nice guy.

- Didn't he drink too much? - Did he? I didn't notice.

- Foreigners, you know... - How did you two meet?

Jacobi at the museum asked me to see to him.

He'd had a kidney stone attack.

Really?

- I'm too tired to read tonight. - No, not tonight.

Cuddle up...

At dessert I'd already decided to seduce you tonight.

But I'm so damned sleepy.

Doesn't matter. I'm sleepy, too.

Let's go to sleep then.

Good night.

Let me hold your hand.

It feels good, holding your hand...

Hey, have you taken your contraceptive pill?

Can't I skip it tonight? There's no risk.

"No risk"!

Wakey-wakey. Come along.

Here you are.

“ Bye-bye. - Bye.

- Bye, Dad! - See you at supper.

Enjoy your day.

Right. Let's hurry. Take that apple with you.

Yes. I'm inclined to agree.

Yes, but the symptoms are a bit unclear, wouldn't you say?

If only she weren't so damned hysterical. It might just be nerves.

Admit her for observation...

Immediately, please. I'll let the hospital know.

Hello!

We could have lunch together.

Yes. Come to my consulting room. I'll be there from 12.30 on.

Right... Bye.

- Did you have a nice drive? - It was very interesting.

You could have asked David to supper.

I asked him, but he didn't want to come.

Vergerus here.

Sister Gunhild, Ward 3, please. No, I'll hold, thanks.

I'll take over supper from Maria. She is seeing some friends this evening.

- Home no later than midnight. - No. We can discuss that later.

Yes? Ask her to call me when she's free. I'll be home another 20 minutes.

After that, she can phone my secretary. Thank you.

There's something I want to tell you.

That sounds exciting.

I don't think I want a helper in the house.

Better to do everything oneself. It avoids bother.

- That's what you wanted to tell me? - Yes. Why?

You sounded so serious I thought it was important.

No.

“ Bye-bye. “ Bye-bye...

No...!

- Cheers! - Cheers...

No... No!

I rang you several times this morning. No answer.

I was clearing the attic.

We've got so many old clothes there which could go to the Red Cross.

- Good idea. - Right.

Not upset about anything?

No.

My period's due. That always makes me melancholic.

Nothing else?

No, I don't think so.

Le jardin est devant la maison.

Non. Il n'est pas devant la maison.

- I'd gone to sleep? - Yes, you had.

Sleep well.

Cheers, and thank you very much!

- What's Maria up to? - At a dance, as you well know.

But she had such a cold.

- Oh, no. Not this evening. - Really?

Maria is never ill on Saturdays.

- Hello! - Hello.

- Was the film okay? - So-so.

- Really? - Just masses of love stuff.

- Hungry? - I had a sandwich in the kitchen.

- Goodnight. - I'll be up to say goodnight.

Okay.

Goodnight, sleep tight.

- What's that sore on your lip? - Don't know. I noticed it myself...

- Could it be vitamin deficiency? - I hardly think so.

I've got a congress in Rome in April. Want to come along?

I don't know if I can. I'd need to find someone to see to the children.

I've already arranged things. I phoned Eva.

She said it would suit her very well, that she'd even enjoy doing it.

She's feeling lonely after her divorce, poor lass.

- Let's discuss it. - You don't sound enthusiastic.

Oh, but you know me. Forgive me!

Yes, I know you.

Let's go to bed.

You'll win this game anyway. I'll just take Bobby out.

Karin...

Come here.

Goodness! I forgot my briefcase. The first time ever.

- Will you make it? - Oh, yes. ls there any tea left?

- I'm not sure. - It's still hot. Want a cup with me?

I've already had coffee, thank you.

- What are you up to? - Filling in Postal Giro forms.

You seem to have plenty of time today.

I'm not running late yet.

Drive carefully.

- I think I'll be home by four today. - Will you?

- Would you like tea when you come? - Yes, please.

Are you sitting there working?

No...

I'm just sitting here.

Let's walk about.

Good afternoon, Maria!

Oh, no...

- Professor Vergerus is due now. - Really? I'll wait, then.

- Please excuse me, but... - Of course. By all means.

Is the letter ready?

Oh, just a moment, please.

Please ask Jacobi to come later so we needn't rush our talk.

I feel so damned tired.

- Jacobi at 5.30. Alright? - That'll be fine.

Excuse me if I lie down while I talk to you. I've got a hell of a headache.

Right. What did you want to tell me? Something unpleasant, no doubt.

David's left.

I've got to go to London and find him.

He's got to tell me why he's left me. Try to understand.

If you go, don't bother to come back.

But if you stay at home, to beat your panic, I'll do my best to help you.

- Just for a few days. - You heard...

- If you go, there's no coming back. - One day, Andreas, is all I'm asking.

Be reasonable.

"Reasonable" you say. Don't come demanding understanding of me!

Take your responsibility. Make your decision, Karin,

and take the consequences for once!

This play's been going on for two years. I'm tired.

I don't want to be in yet another act.

The sufferings got to end - not go on forever.

I'll not be poisoned by hatred and malice.

I don't want to hate you.

I've got to go.

Will you tell the children, or am I to?

It's better you do it.

Please leave.

Andreas...?

Andreas?
