Good god. Sophy.
I don't think the fuehrers want me comforted.
It's midsummer night.
Do hurry, Oliver.
It won't be all clear unless Hector comes home
and finds me safely in bed.
I don't want to get myself divorced.
Don't fuss.
It's not late.
What's midsummer night got to do with us? Nothing.
I just thought, well... Hector said this morning that it's midsummer.
We've had the most wondrous weather all through the fall of France.
Hector loves hot women. Damn and blast Hector. May he fry in hell!
I forgot to tell you, he's in the army now,
got a commission in the guards.
I hope he gets killed. Oh, Oliver.
Here's your street.
Oh, good, he went in the car and it's not back.
We don't seem to be very lucky, do we? Not together.
I'd better run or he'll be back before I'm in bed.
Go on, then.
And he said, "if you were conscious like your father,
"he wouldn't let you in the house."
Oliver! You here as well. Come on in.
Come on in.
We phoned calypso earlier, but she's ill in bed. With a funny throat.
I know.
Hello, you two. Still earthbound.
Just. We'll be flying spitfires. Two more days and then...
We've been talking about cornwall -
how beautiful it was the last time.
Oh.
See? The camomile lawn?
Remember the smell of it?
Good old soph. What a fool Oliver was! Really, ma?
I thought his last book was rather brilliant.
Will he be at the funeral? Improbable.
He's lived in France for years now.
He was obsessed, crazed. About what? Calypso!
But she's so artificial.
Beautiful then.
They were all in love with her at one time.
Max erstweiler, too. Of course.
Max was in love with everyone.
He had a musical soul.
Applause
Bravo! Bravo!
Bravo! Bravo...
Max, it was wonderful.
Maybe sometimes it sings for you.
See what the critics make of it.
Your first London recital.
Gute nacht, my friend. Good night, sir.
Shall we find a taxi?
No, I'll find you a taxi, Polly. I need to walk.
I'm restless.
You must walk with me. Max...
Can't you walk alone?!
I need to find calm...
..By walking.
You do not know the musical soul. So...
..First we go to my hotel,
and then... here's a taxi.
Taxi! Taxi! Come home.
You must be tired. Polly!
He's an alien. He needs me.
Monica should have come.
Why should you be the one to travel all the way from cornwall?
Taxi! She's afraid of air raids.
Aren't we all?! Polly.
Taxi, wait!
Don't be feeble, aunt.
You let him treat you like a mistress.
Ah!
Oh! Are you?
Aunt Helena. Polly.
Oh, I didn't mean to wake you.
Max... I wasn't asleep.
I had a telephone call about an hour ago.
Someone from my father's hospital. They rang from godalming?
Mum and dad have been killed.
Liebe gotte! Killed?
Martin...
A stray bomb on their hotel.
I think they were the only casualties.
He said they'd have known nothing.
Oh, my dear.
I'm all right.
Only I must tell Walter.
He's at sea.
Why all these flowers?
Max erstweiler must have loved you very much.
He grew to rely on me. I loved him.
I don't know if he loved me as much.
He envied me this flask.
It was my first husband's.
Great uncle Richard. No, dear boy.
I was married to a man with two legs.
He was killed in 1916.
I shan't offer you any, as you're driving.
That's why the house in cornwall was mine... And the money.
Your great uncle Richard disliked that, too, and most of all,
that I managed rather well with it.
Good god, Helena, you've done what?
You've bought two houses!
You must be mad.
They're convenient for harrods and Peter Jones.
I'm using my own money.
No, I can't stay with George and Sarah.
They've moved to bath.
The houses are an investment.
Well, if they're bombed, as you say, I'll probably be dead.
Oh, our six minutes is up.
Goodbye.
What's so funny?
You and uncle Richard, your six minutes was not up.
I know why you're buying those houses.
Should you have a communicating door?
What a good idea!
Why stop at a door? With the two front rooms knocked together,
you could install a grand piano. I think not.
Max has ruined my drawing room in cornwall.
Monica bangs away for him, it's no longer mine. Oh, no.
Then where will Max have a piano?
He has the use one in pond street. It's only a minute away.
Pond street won't get bombed.
Why? It's too ugly. Aunt Helena's turned in.
Had a busy day with furniture.
What's she bought so far? Beds.
The best from heales. Very important.
Hector had a frightful thing, belonged to his first wife,
it sagged in the middle.
I bought a new one.
She wants to buy antiques.
She says prices will be astronomical if we survive the war.
It's rather a gamble, isn't it?
There's a lot more to aunt Helena than I thought possible.
What do you think Max is like in bed?
Better than uncle Richard.
By the way, I told Tony he could pick me up here
when he comes off duty at 8:00.
Is that all right? Perfectly.
He seems to enjoy being a fireman.
Who would have thought it?
You don't mind?
Why should I?
He doesn't belong to me.
I rather thought he did.
I introduced you, didn't I?
So you did. But I rather thought...
Well, only for a short time.
Long enough actually.
Do you imagine if he were mine, I'd like you to meet.
Tony says he doesn't understand you.
Of course he does.
Door bell rings
do you think that's him?
Are you expecting anyone else?
No. He can see me home. Is Hector away?
Yes, aldershot. I haven't seen him for a week.
I'll let him in, shall I? Don't show a light.
Oh, it's you. Weren't you were expecting me?
Well, yes. I mean, no.
Well, not both of you.
Come on down, Polly's in the kitchen.
Oliver's here. Hello, my love.
Can you house me for a few days? I'm on embarkation leave. Of course.
Did you meet Tony on the steps?
Tony's a fireman.
Are you going on duty or your coming off, Tony?
Coming off.
I saw your bicycle, calypso.
Someone might fall over it out there in the blackout.
Yes, well, I...
I'm just leaving.
I'll see you home then. Good. My bicycle?
I'll wheel it. Or run beside you.
Oh, oli, like a faithful dog!
My stuff's in the hall.
I'll take it out when I get back.
Fine.
Shall we go?
Did she know he was coming?
No, Tony, nor did I.
Oh, well. I'll have to wait till his leave is over.
What was that chap at Polly's? A friend of hers, Tony wood.
Where are you off to this time?
I don't know.
I'm not supposed to tell. Egypt, I bet.
How do you know? Hector and his friends talk.
He was at dunkirk, you know.
You said Dover last time.
He went round to collect the French from dunkirk.
Some of them are awfully jolly.
Jollier than me? Much.
One of my luxuries, having a log fire.
We get the logs from a friend of Hector's in berkshire.
Stop talking, and come over here.
Darling, oli.
Nice sofa - no scratchy uniform now.
I hate being squashed against buttons.
Hector's make a pattern in groups of three, or is it four?
Shut up!
I'm nervous.
No, you're not.
Relax. Oli...
Oh, Oliver.
You didn't enjoy it.
My god! You didn't enjoy it.
I didn't say. You didn't need to.
Oh damn and hell and blast.
Please, Oliver.
โช And when I'm dead...
Hector!
โช Don't Bury me at all...
Oh, out of my way. Out of my way.
โช Just pickle my bones in alcohol. โช
It's all right, he's in a good temper, thank god.
Is he often drunk?
Sometimes.
Oh, oh.
Air raid siren
he's passing out.
I think you'd better go.
Shall I help you put him to bed?
I'll see you out through the kitchen.
He's blocking the front door.
Sure, I can't help? No, please, oli, go.
Air raid siren
goodbye.
It was small comfort, I'm afraid.
Better than none, I hope. Better to know.
Siren
Hector!
I'm... I'm drunk. I know.
I parked the car again. You left the lights on.
The room's going round and round.
โช Ooo-ooo-oo-ooo-oo-oooh
โช and it comes out here. โช
Oh!
I'm not...
What am I trying to say?
Calypso. Mm?
Stay here.
Don't leave me.
Your buttons hurt. Oh, never mind.
I'm terribly uncomfortable.
Does my breath smell? No.
Yes!
What's the matter?
Oh... I'm half seas over.
I'm going overseas.
You, too?
Who else? Oliver.
Was he here? Yes, he walked me home from Polly's.
He's in love with you. He thinks he is.
And you? No.
I like all those boys from holidays in cornwall.
The rectory twins, Walter and Oliver, the cousins.
Almost brothers. That's incest. Not for me.
Where are you off to, then?
Egypt? Probably.
Desert training in lightweight kit.
Will you come to Scotland with me before I go?
If you really want. I do.
Oh, I do.
You've got nothing on under this dress. I was going to bed.
I rescued your car.
Ah.
He sighs so...
You know, that man Tony woods is in love with you, too.
It isn't love. It's lust.
They chuckle
do you know the difference? I know lust.
I don't think I know love. Lucky you.
Oh, lucky, lucky you.
Why? I thought I was missing something.
You are. You certainly are. What?
Pain.
Lots of pain.
You do talk rubbish.
Cow moos
ah, mrs erstweiler, good morning.
Good morning, herr general.
May I present the fair milkmaid with a small tribute?
Ah, so kind.
In return for your cheeses.
Picked in my own fields this morning.
Are your flowers selling?
Good gracious, yes. We'll be sending train loads in a couple of weeks.
Surely the war interferes.
Less to buy in the shops so people spend on flowers.
The more they're bombed, the better for trade.
Fu... funerals.
From my point of view, the war is a bonus.
Air raids have their sunny side. I'm averaging five pence a bloom.
Is that one of ours?
I think maybe one of ours.
Explosion
good lord. I say!
Loud explosion
jettison, right in my flower field, look.
Bastards!
Pardon my French.
Cow moos
no!
Glass smashing the windows!
Cow moos Richard!
My poor cow, she panicked.
Bastards! Monika, the cow!
Richard!
Your cow's in the hall!
Richard! Bloody boche!
That was a bomb!
The cow's in the hall.
Broke through the doors, broke the glass, tore the curtain.
Is she all right?
Bloody beast! Lose her damn milk now, I suppose.
Look what she's done. And where's our sodding brylcreem air force?
Aeroplanes approach
explosion
telephone rings
explosion
hello?
Yes. Yes, it is.
Oh, hello, Monika. How are you?
Explosion
can you speak louder?
There's a raid on.
Oh, my god.
I want Helena. Can you find her?
It's urgent she does not answer her phone.
Loud explosion
she's gone to Max's concert in liverpool.
Missile whistles
explosion
that was a bomb. Sophy and I are under the table.
What do you want Helena for?
Richard is ill.
Loud explosion
gosh, that was close.
I'll try and get hold of her, don't worry.
We have raids in penzance, too.
They hit the wine merchant.
Your uncle got his chill trying to rescue his wine.
He had three dozen clairets. They got bombed.
Line goes dead
she laughs oh, dear.
They've cut her off. Poor Monika.
Poor uncle Richard. Is he really ill?
Sounds like it. They dropped a bomb on his stock of wine, too.
Loud explosion
she laughs
golly, where was that?
I'd say the brompton road.
I wish Oliver was here.
Aunt Sarah had a letter. He's reached the middle east.
Save for the mortar on the Atlantic run,
he says he's sick all the time - nonstop.
Missile whistles
loud explosion
they cough
Polly. Yes?
You remember the terror run? Of course. Yes.
Let's think of cornwall. The sea, a full moon,
that last party on the lawn... I'm scared. It'll be over soon.
It was on the cliff path, by the coastguard's hut.
You know, that bend, near the very edge.
Loud explosion
They cough
it's all right. We're all right, sophy.
That was our near miss. There won't be another one now.
No, I won't think about it. It's over now.
When the all clear goes,
I'll make some tea and lace it good and strong.
And I must try and phone aunt Eleanor.
Telephone rings
Hello. Erstweiler here.
Polly!
Ja.
Monika?
What she want?
What for she want Helena? It's five in the morning!
Ja.
Oh! Oh... ok.
Einer moment. I find her.
It is Richard. He's ill. You should go to him.
Oh, damn!
Helena here. What's the matter?
I've only just got to sleep.
A raid after Max's concert.
It was a great success. The concert, that is.
Aunt Eleanor, Monika tried to find you.
Uncle Richard is very ill. He has pneumonia.
He got it trying to save his clairet after the wine merchant was bombed.
His clairet?! Trying to save his clairet?! It's my clairet!
I don't care if it was your or his.
While you're waffling, he may be dying.
I'm putting sophy on the ten o'clock train.
If you can get to Bristol, you can join her at exeter.
Yes, her holidays have started.
She's here but it's not safe.
I have to work. I daren't leave her in the house alone.
I'll leave as soon as I can.
Can you get through to cornwall? I tried last night.
Max wanted to tell Monika about the concert.
I will, of course.
Goodbye.
Why does one lie?
Instinct.
It's so inconvenient.
Just like Richard to rush out in the rain with flu.
You look like a greuze.
What's that?
Oh, do be of some help. Find out about trains while I pack.
Buck up.
Why do I have to behave badly in a crisis?
I'd forgotten sophy's holidays. Lost my head as well as my heart.
You do not love me? Not at the moment.
Do hurry up and ask about the trains.
Train toots
Aunt Eleanor! Ah, you are here.
Sophy said you were not on the train. I didn't see you.
No. I looked at exeter.
Poor Richard will be so glad.
Is he better?
Not better, no, Helena.
You will drive your car now? I expect you can manage.
Hello, dachs.
Max sends his love.
He has so much.
Hm. Here the bomb fell.
Poor Richard and the general were upset, but no people hurt at all.
Any news of your son?
What should we hear of concentration camps?
The rector and his frau worry much about their twins.
David was shot down last summer and Paul got wounded.
Pauli told me. In the battle of britain.
They're all right now.
Dog barks
Come on, dachs!
Birds squawk
she sighs
you've got a temperature. What's the doctor doing?
Giving me m&b.
I hope it works.
Who changed the room round? Monika.
Something else, too.
Your leg.
You've got a new leg.
Took me to exeter.,
clever chaps there.
It's got a hinge.
Press it and bingo.
Monika thinks of everything.
Yes, she does.
You mind?
Good heavens, no. Should have thought of it myself.
I was in liverpool with Max when I heard you were ill.
No need for you to bother. Probably not.
All the same, it wouldn't look well if I didn't come. Neighbours.
What would they say?
I ask you. Are you joking?
Course not.
Must think of the general.
And Monika.
Not that she cares. Used to it.
He laughs
used to it!
I ask you! He laughs
shall you get used to it?
Dog whimpers
dachshund. Let him in.
Dog barks
He loves you.
Yes.
She's changed the kitchen, too.
And you are to sleep in the spare room. Oh? Why?
You might catch my flu.
And if I did? You'd stay longer.
A straight... He coughs
what did you say?
A straight swap. Is it?
But it's all right.
Uncle Richard! Sophy!
I am glad to see you.
Thanks for all your letters. They make school bearable.
Good! Good.
He writes to me about the garden and what's happening in the village
so I know it's all still here.
And I always end my letters, "love to the camomile lawn."
You planted it, didn't you?
They all said it wouldn't grow. But it did.
You've grown, too. He coughs
bugger this cough!
The doctor says being gassed didn't help.
Didn't help?! I ask you!
That's enough.
Time you stopped talking.
Swallow your pills and then you inhale, yes?
Whatever you say, my dear. He has talked too much.
You have seen the kitchen?
Ah, you must!
We take two of these...
..And once more at bedtime.
Bloody nurse.
He doesn't write to me. You don't need letters.
You've got so much.
Oh, how weird is it?
Much cosier than in cook's day, isn't it?
Quite viennese.
You do like it, don't you?
Yes, I admit I do.
Have you seen the cow?
Monika's making cheeses and she's got a dozen hens.
Sophy... Cow moos
..what did you mean when you said I've got so much?
Haven't you? Oh, no.
I need to have his letters or else I'd disappear.
I put you here so you will not be disturbed by Richard's coughing.
And where do you sleep? In his dressing room.
So I am near if he would call. This will do very nicely.
Thank you, Monika.
I like this room.
It was one of the children's favourites.
This Christmas, you will have a child, but Max and I...
Why did you interfere with Richard's leg?!
Oh, I curse this war.
Curse it. Curse it.
I'm a horrible, selfish creature.
Monika, please, forgive me.
We forgive each other.
We are partners, nicht?
You're generous.
And you're beautiful.
You look like nefertiti.
I have a Jewish face.
Even more so than Max.
I never thought about Jews before the war.
I thought they were just other people.
Richard's nephews told me about the Nazis.
You've no idea how irritating Richard was.
He believed everything that boring old general told him.
He liked the Nazis. He no longer does.
The general is very keen on the war.
He is a patriot. Do you like him?
He does no harm.
Like me.
Oh, Helena, you and I are friends, yes?
We work in a team like the English are supposed to do.
We make Max happy. Don't you mind?
And poor Richard? We make less poor.
Now he gets better.
Train clatters
If anyone had told me this was enjoyable,
I'd have told them to get their head examined.
I rather like the rhythm.
It's this...
..Fuck-fuck-fucker-fuck.
Fuck-fuck-fucker-fuck.
Improper words.
Not for a wife.
Another go?
Don't fall out of the bunk.
I'll try not to.
What time do we get into euston?
Just shut up for a while.
Water splashes
I went to sleep.
We nearly there?
Oh, we're too big for this bunk.
I must stretch.
You're squashing me!
Ow!
Is there any whisky left in that bottle?
Hang on.
Do you think the puppy's all right?
Dog yelps
yes.
He's all right.
Want to finish it? Mm.
He's a lovely precious.
I think I shall call him highland fling.
Hm, good idea.
Hamish for short.
Family name, isn't it?
Not for a dog.
I didn't mean the dog, you idiot.
You're on embarkation leave, aren't you?
We had a bargain, remember?
Darling... so, with any luck, it'll keep me busy.
But if you have...
You are...?
You will go to Scotland, won't you?
I don't want your people spying on me.
You fool.
You won't go to your parents' because you'll be bored.
You won't go to Scotland. You insist on staying in London.
You may get bombed.
Hector.
Do I see a tear?
I love you.
Is it so painful?
Agony. You wouldn't know.
Thank god, then.
Why have we stopped?
Hamish, I thought the hard shoulder was only for emergencies?
Do you believe my parents wanted me?
You were part of a bargain.
For his money and heir, calypso never loved.
Not in her character, poor girl.
So did my father love me?
Yes, very much.
Are you sure?
I never really knew... Quite sure.
You're rather like him.
Less endearing, though. He scoffs
and you're a very wicked old woman.
I know I am. Evil.
Hector went off in a filthy temper.
All the rush of packing.
Are you missing him?
I don't intend to.
It's lovely having the house to myself,
going to bed when I want.
With whom you want. Ha, I didn't say that.
Any news of Walter?
Not for ages and ages.
The twins?
They're alive.
They come up when they have a night off.
Always together?
Usually one at a time.
They get awful nightmares, calypso.
They scream.
So would I if I were shot down.
It's hard to take in.
Hector says you look up and,
if someone's missing from breakfast in the mess,
it puts you off your grub.
You think it may be you tomorrow.
That's what Hector says.
It may be quite different for the twins.
Hector's experience was in the last war.
They won't let him near any fighting, will they?
He's awfully aggressive.
He may be very good at it.
Walter says they take ages to get there
and they may be torpedoed.
Hector won't like being stuck on a ship.
Polly, do you hear things in your office?
Real news?
You can read the papers,
listen to the wireless.
We don't know so much.
My boss thought we'd be invaded at the end of June.
He even knew the date.
When was that?
June 24th.
I remember because it was midsummer's day.
Why, what's funny? Nothing.
Oh, poor Oliver.
I had tonsillitis.
I wonder where he is now.
He went off in a temper, too.
These things are making me feel sick.
I can't think why.
Have you missed the curse?
Goodness.
Not sure.
I'm bad at counting.
You'd better start.
I want to send this telegram to somebody in the forces.
"Hamish, en route, calypso."
You'd better write in English. Isn't it?
Looks like code.
Is calypso a ship? No, it's my name.
Better put your surname, then.
I think I'll write a letter. Please yourself.
It's a commercial undertaking.
I'll have to put it in writing.
Max, it's calypso.
Would you like to come out to lunch?
I'm in need of moral support.
Mm!
Oh, ta!
Ta very much!
What are you celebrating?
Private joke.
I may hear this? Sometime, perhaps.
Did you tell Helena you were lunching with me?
She's out shopping.
Who taught you to say "ta"?
Isn't it s'not?
Who taught you?
Come on, Max, tell me. A young woman I know.
You're being unfaithful to Helena.
And to Monika.
I am not faithful man.
And you are not a faithful woman.
I went to bed with you, Max, in a purely exploratory fashion.
I wanted to find out whether my aunt's onto a good thing,
whether you'll break her heart.
My dear, would it be too much to ask you to mind your own business?
Promise you won't hurt her?
Don't let her find out you're sleeping around.
I will not hurt her.
I am a sensitive man.
Under that British phlegm, your aunt also is sensitive.
Is she really?
I'd never have known it.
There's a lot you do not know.
For instance, your Hector.
What about Hector?
Your Hector is sensitive.
Oh, come on! Hector isn't sensitive.
He's a great big hunting, shooting, aggressive politician.
And, oh, so rich.
That's why I married him, for his money.
And in exchange... Yes?
In exchange, he has a pretty wife.
Nein. Ausgeschlossen.
I cannot and I will not.
Forgive me, please. Max did not introduce us.
I am trying to make Max accept a wonderful offer.
Oh, what's that? I offer him a contract in the states.
A passage to america for himself and Monika, and he refuses.
In america, they will be safe and make lots of money.
In america, Jews are safe.
Safe here, too.
Only until the Germans come.
And, are you sure? I speak for myself.
This man was German, now he's American. You understand?
He's trying to make me run away, but I will not!
I've gone far enough. Here, I can work.
For less money. Ja, for less money, maybe.
But I work for the people who shelter us.
I pay their kindness with my music!
Listen, england is losing the war.
Soon, rommel will be in Egypt.
The British army is retreating, Hitler will invade this country
after a bit more bombing, and then it is goodbye to your talent.
Goodbye to Jewish refugees.
They speak in German
out! Max!
Go back to your safe america!
Leave this country, where you are not even worthy to shit!
Now, Max! I hope the u-boats will take you on the way!
Max shouts in German
are you all right, Max? Who was that creep?
He's a German impresario.
I hate that man!
Have I been vulgar?
As vulgar as saying "ta"?
As I don't understand German, I can't say,
but you sounded good and rude. Good.
Friends?
Will this upset your music, spoil your concert?
Oh, no, no. I shall play better than ever.
For me, anger works better than an orgasm.
Although, still...
..I would still like to come back with you this afternoon.
Still no.
Be kind to aunt Helena. Ok.
I find you a taxi.
Calypso! Calypso!
Calypso, your little dog.
Oh!
He ran out as you drove off.
You gave it to Marcel to take care of in the kitchen.
Here.
My taxi is ticking over. All right.
Auf wiedersehen! Thanks!
Oh, fling!
Wonderful fling, I forgot you.
I'm not fit to have a dog.
As for a child, god only knows.
Hello, sophy!
Tony!
I never know who's going to be here at the end of term.
Polly's away. She asked me to meet you.
Where's she gone? I don't know. Somewhere to do with her job.
Walter's in London on leave.
Oh, wizard!
He's very fed up, but missing her.
He was still asleep when I looked in before coming to the station.
Look, all right if I leave you?
I have to be at my station in a few minutes. Thanks, that's fine.
I think I hear Walter coming down.
Bye, now. Bye.
Hello! You're here!
Where's Tony gone? He just had...
Well, come on in.
Did he tell you the girls are both away? Yes.
Terrible.
I get my first leave for ages, no sister, no cousin.
Last time, there was no room for any more.
You like fried potatoes?
Oh, yes. And a spot of bacon?
Do you think they'd mind in cornwall if I came down with you?
There's nothing for me here.
They'd love it. I would, anyway.
Could be fun. Walk the cliff to porthcurno, bathe in the creek.
But it could be too cold for that, I suppose.
Probably. I did at easter last year.
I'm sure Monika would love to see you, and uncle Richard.
Really think so? I don't want to impose.
Where's aunt Helena? Somewhere with Max?
Well, don't you know about them?
Of course I know. I'm not a baby any more.
No, you are not.
You seem quite a bit bigger.
Get stuck into that.
We'll catch the night train.
Just think, I haven't been there since those last summer hols.
But of a rush at taunton.
I'm afraid it's not hot.
It doesn't matter.
Its filthy stuff, really.
It'll be funny to be there without the cousins.
We always went together. I'm your cousin.
So you are.
You used to seem too little to be a cousin.
You said I'm bigger now.
Oh, much.
Is that comfortable?
Funny, though.
No Oliver to boss us,
no calypso, no rectory twins.
Remember the terror run?
Oh...!
Of course.
I tried to tell Polly, but there was a raid on.
Hey, what's the matter?
Come on.
Tell old Walter.
I ran the terror run again after you'd gone.
They were putting wire along the cliff.
And I promised Oliver, so I had to try.
He was there again. Who was?
Penrose.
By the coastguard's hut.
He... he used to wait...
..And show me...
Oh.
A flasher?
Go on. I'm awake, ears flapping. Tell.
It was near the rocks.
I tried to push past him. He sort of stumbled.
I think he was drunk.
And he went over.
What? He fell.
The soldiers found him.
He was dead.
The police came.
They took Monika and Max to be interned.
What's that got to do with it?
Nothing. Nothing.
Oh, Walter, what shall I do? Do you believe me?
Yes. Yes, I do.
Polly didn't.
I need a word with pol.
