Smoking is not allowed at this station, or on the train.

Like everyone's wearing strapless to the formal now

so...

Yeah, that's good, 'cause it's a bit, like

I don't know, that would suit you.

I reckon I'm going to say something to Mrs. Martin.

Seriously, she need to get her scales right

and everything, like...

No! You can't!

Dickhead!

Milla!

- Doors closing, stand clear. - Milla!

Damn!

Your hair's like, uh...

What?

Your hair's like bangles or something.

Bangles?

Like with the light, it's like bangles, it's...

Damn.

Yours is nice too.

Yeah, but look at this.

Look at that, see.

I cut myself. See?

I had to get on like a weird angle to get to that bit.

- And then I... - Can I feel?

Yeah.

- Feels like snakeskin. - Ooh! Yeah.

Oh, shit, there's blood...

Oh!

- It's so stupid. - It's okay.

I'm just gonna wait over there.

Shit, it's gone on your...

- Oh no, it's fine. Seriously. - It's gone on your shirt. Here.

- Happens all the time. - Just lay down for a minute.

I got you.

Passengers on platform four, the next train...

You just find a little bit of sky.

Sorry, could you just take it off my face.

It smells.

- Is there blood in my hair? - Nah.

- Oh, there is a lot of blood. - Get up.

Hey, um, I hate to ask you this

um, I've just been kicked out of my house and...

- Evicted? - Yeah, evicted.

And, uh, I just, I'm sort of trying

to put some money together to get a bed

in a shelter for the night...

Why did you get evicted?

Just because I got behind in my rent. I hate to ask you.

You just seem like a really nice person.

How much?

Uh, just whatever you can manage.

It doesn't have to be much.

Just 'cause I saved your life or whatever.

- I've only got 50. - Fifty! That's too much!

- I can't... - I can split it.

Uh, no, no, no. Fifty's okay.

Hey, you want to take this one?

If I give you 50, you have to do something for me.

You know she's playing easy listening in the reception?

No wonder your patients are so tense.

- Is my time up? - Not quite.

I'm just boring you.

- It's quarter past. - Yeah, alright.

- Really? - When's your next client?

4:30. It's just she tends to be early.

Oh, let's just do it. Don't you think?

It's the last thing we're going to feel like doing next Tuesday.

Hm!

Hm!

While I remember...

Take one of these with food.

These are the same things that are in the blue bottle, yeah?

And, darling, start taking an Ativan in the morning as well.

Just for the next few weeks, alright?

- I love this bra. - Hm.

Couch or desk? Hm?

Oh.

She looks like a little kid here.

Do you know that was five years ago.

I don't remember this being taken.

She looks so pissed off.

- She does not look pissed off. - She does.

That is, no, she does not. It's the sun across her face.

That is practically a National Geographic standard photograph.

How are you doing with that sandwich?

Many of my patients have said

that it looks like a professional photographer.

Yeah, but they are crazy, Henry.

She's gonna be okay.

- Can you just move your leg. - Yeah.

- Does that hurt? - No, babe.

I've got to answer that.

- I have to answer that. - Uh-unh!

Really?

I'm sorry.

Uh, can you just get her last

MRI scan ready for me please?

No, there's a more recent one.

There's a more recent one than that.

But that's... that's the one.

- Are you okay? - Mm-hm.

- You gonna pick her up now? - Yeah. I'll see you tonight.

Oh, fuck. I love you

Fuck!

- We've got to go. - Why?

Wait!

My violin! My violin.

Duncan Abrahams is big but he doesn't throw himself in.

Oh, I know. Hello! Hello!

Oh, I know, I'm sorry we left you...

He's got reach, but he can hardly...

Come here, Zach.

Mum.

Hey, Zachy.

Uh, I'd like to report a break-in.

Fuck you, mum!

You've got...

...little trimmings on your face.

They're like, so pretty.

- Like little gold... - Just have your water, mum.

What's it called?

Is this a... style?

I was going for rat's tails.

You're a hairdresser, are you, Moses?

Mum trains Bichons.

And that's how you know about rats, is it?

That's why I've got access to clippers.

They're poodle clippers, but I use them on me as well.

I mean, you get a result you're happy with

using poodle clippers?

They're just like regular clippers, mum.

Bit louder maybe.

They're probably a little bit

less accurate, I imagine.

No. No. We were competitive.

Mum's a three time state award winner with her bichons.

Oh, wow.

How old are you, Moses?

- I'm twenty... - Sixteen.

- ...three. - Twenty.

I'm twenty three.

Well...

I'm a bit freaked out by that.

But, um, lucky for everyone

I forgot I'd taken a Zoloft when I took two Xanax

while I was waiting for you at the hairdresser to show up

thinking you must've been abducted

because why else would you not even come?

We know that she's okay now. Don't we?

- God, two of those blues. - Right?

Those ones you gave me.

Though I'm feeling very relaxed right now.

Feels like we... I'm havin' a stroke.

I can't feel this.

You look like a different person.

Good.

What have you done with my daughter?

I killed her.

Oh, my God.

She's got a great shaped head for it.

We were nervous. I mean, well, I was.

I was nervous, because she was very overdue

and had to be, have those, um...

What's that word?

Um... What do you call 'em?

What's... what's that word?

The... Henry, what is the, what is that word?

- The... - Vase.

- Vase? - Forceps.

She had to be induced but then they used the forceps.

And she started pulling them right up inside me

because she did not wanna come out.

And I was ripped to shreds.

- But we got in here, and we... - Oh, my God!

Anna. Anna, let's go for a walk around the block.

Sorry, Milla. I am so high, right now.

You've got blood in your mouth.

- What? - Your mouth is bleeding.

Oh, fuck.

I've had this loose tooth.

Not a baby tooth though, only Milla has baby teeth.

And it's an aberration for someone as old as me.

Which one is it?

This one. At the back.

- Show me. - There.

Oh! Hi there, little guy!

- Get away from her! - Mum!

Ahem. Sorry, Moses.

Don't apologies to him for me.

- Why is he even here? - He's my guest!

N... no. No smoking.

- Not in front of Milla! - I'm sorry.

- Outside! You take can it outside! - Mum! Mum...

Mum, he... You don't, you don't have to go outside.

Do you have that, um...

Oh, yeah.

Um... Yeah. Here.

Here.
